81 Louis. June 10.-St. Louis has
broadly the appearance of national
Invention city. The hotels are rapidly
sllinc with visitors and every incom-
hg train adds to the list of delegates

Nv. Mckinley badges, Autographs,
hns and buttons are to be seen at
sVerv turn. In truth, the fact that
mere is more than one candidate seems
\ be lost sight of on all sides and
bout the only points of contention are
#ho will get second place and what
ID platform will say on finance. At
Ia headqua1 ters of the Ohio man it is
cDnfdently asserted that there will be
ne roll call in the convention

nominatou Of Major Mckinley.

IN wherein lie stated that roll call
nnust be completed before a nomina-
Lon could be made, and proposed an
Informal ballot. Judge Thompson said:
Il am familiar with the mode of pro-
esdure in national conventions, and l
hhve never IN my life heard of such a
lhing as an informal ballot. Mr.. Fill
lek is as sincere for Mckinley as we
but he should remember that we
a not control the action of the dele
ties If when some state like Penn

f1ached and some delegate sees that
has already received votes

test is open to all sportsmen who may de-
sire to enter. The team shoot between the

route and travel by easy stages to the
headwaters of the Eel River.
The Healdsburg Gun Club is making
very extensive preparations for bluerock
tournament which will be held on SUNDAY
next. The powder and cartridge compa-
nies of this City have donated several
handsome prizes and the business houses
OF Healdsburg have also promised liberal
support in the way of prize offerings. The
contests will be open to all corners, and
this fact alone should induce some of the
crack shots of this City to try their skill
against the sportsmen of the Healdsburg
Gun Club.
Captain Bartlett of the Reliance Club of
Oakland will be on the grounds and afte=
the contests he will give an exhibition OF
fancy shooting, at which game he is won
derfully clever. A splendid days sport is
guaranteed all those who will attend.
SportsInen who are figuring upon tramp

search of deer should not neglect a good
pair of leggings, as rattlesnakes are very
numerous this season in the northern part
of Lake County.
Ned Bosqui met with painful accident
last Saturday night at Sausalito. He was
going down the steps from the hill and
slipped, breaking his right arm near the
shoulder. This will in all probability
spoil Ned's annual deer hunt for this sea.

AMATEUR ATHLETICS.
Captain Leonard Gilrs Letter-The
Olympic Clubs Football
Team.

The football enthusiasts of the Olympic
Club have commenced to be heard. They
contend that the coming season will far
surpass any winter of the past-that is, as
far as a boom in the great collegiate game
is concerned.
Taylor, the champion heavy weight
kicker of the club, IS determined that the
Olympic football team OF 81 will not sus-
tain defeat during tie next season s
series of games.
81 propose to commence early" said
Taylor, by selecting the very best avail
able talent. and you can rest assured that
the boys will be full of ginger and snap
when the time arrives for practice
1t IS rumored at club headquarters that
the officers of the Olympic have realized
that football is one of the great winter
sporting features, and an effort will be
made to induce some of the ex-collegiate
football players to become members of the
club. Among those who are now engaged
in business in this City and who dis
tinguished themselves on the gridiron, are :
j. Frankenhelmer, Billy Harrelson and
the Reynold brothers of Sta 1ford, and
Robert Porter, Pete Smith, F. Kington
and Il. Plunkett of Berkeley. II can be
therefore seen that the Olympic Club can
easily procure very strong aggregation
OF players if it will but take sufficient in
terest in the game by offering induce
ments to good men to join the club. An
early start generally ends in a successful
finish.
The club will hold its annual election in
September, and strong pressure will be
brought upon the present vice president
OF the club, Mr.. NewhalI, to accept the
nomination for president.
The following letter from Leonard Gill,
the captain of the Olympic Club outdoor
athletes, is self-explanatory:

SACRAMENTO, CAL, July 23.-The anglers
OF this city are greatly excited over the fact
that fy-casting can be secured with excellent
success at their very doors, and the river is
being whipped at all hours by the devotees of
that sport Messrs. Upson and Helms were the
happy discoverers of the fact that the river
was full of pike which took the fly with
avidity, often leaping clear of the water
In their eagerness TO take the fly. 1t is also
reported that pike and splittails are being
caught in large quantities in the clear water
of the American River above Folsom; also that
pike are being taken with spoon and fly at the
mouth OF the sloughs near Rio Vista.

fall and Nick Wiseman returned ith ninety
doves and fifty jackrabbits. NJ. II. Kimball
and Charles DeMerit killed six dozen doves
during days outing this week, but there is a
Kimball. G. Chapman also bagged three dozen
in days outing.
Monte Newbert and william Young re-
turned from their camping trip and report
having had excellent sport. Fred Yoerk, who
is outing in Lake County, reports the fishing
as excellent.
Kimbau and Upson will give a hy-casting
tournament early in the fall and will present
the winner with a handsome trophy. 1t is
probable that Russ Flint will enter with from
twenty to thirty feet handicap.
The indoor racing tournament at the pavil-
ION is attracting great attention, as the boys
are out for blood, and the breaking of two
worlds records on the opening night proves
that the track is more than fast; but the pro-
fessional riders claim that the banks are not

Prizes That Will Be Competed For
at the Stockton Regatta.
The Stockton regatta on September is
now an assured fact ana $3.50 will be ap-
propriated for prizes.
The Stockton Athletic Association is
working hard to make the affair success,
but the members of the association are of
the opinion that the regatta committee
and the board of managers of the P. A. A.
are expecting more from the Stockton
Athletic Association than was ever before
demanded of any association where cham
pionship regattas have been held. The
conditions upon which President Hum
phreys promised to hold the champion
ship event at Stockton on September 9
are as follows:
First, that the sum of $3.50 be donated
for prizes and that check for that amount
be placed in his hands.
Second, that the people OF Stockton
make arrangements for the transportation
OF the boats and oarsmen from here to
Stockton.
Third, that the Stockton association
can do as it pleases with the seats along
the river and charge as much as it likes,
provided that the members of the board of
managers and the press are provided with
seating accommodations.
AT meeting recently held at the rooms
of the Stockton Athletic Association the
secretary read the demands of the local
men, after which a great many present
were in favor of holding bicycle meet
instead of regatta; but the merchants
'klcked" against this scheme, saying that
regatta could be witnessed by ali free of
charge and was more desirable than =
bicycle meet. 1t was decided after much
discussion to turn the $3.50 over to the re-
gatta com mittee
a communication from Chairman
Grunsky of the Admission day amuse-
ment committee to President Humphreys
OF the Z. A. A. voices the sentiments of
the committee as to what it will do toward
bringing the boat crews and single-sculI
men from San Francisco on Admission
day to take part in the regatta.
Latest accounts state that the committee
has refused to pay transportation expenses
of the local men, believing that the vaIu-
able prizes should prove a fit incentive to
have the local men row at Stockton.
Henry Peterson has commenced train
ing for his match with Hanlan at the Vic
toria regatta.
Peterson is now training in Jhon T.
Sullivan's wherry. His shell, which was
somewhat damaged on its passage from
Texas last spring, is at the boatshop for re-
pairs.
