STOCKTON CAL. Jnne I9.-The track at
Goodwater Grove is now being fitted up for
the held-day games that are to take place here
on July 4. 1t is one of the best in the State
for cycling and some records will probably be
broken on the Fourth. The Capital City
Wheeelmen, Terminal City Wheelmen, Stock
ton Road Club, Reliance, Acme and Olympic
clubs are all training for the events. The med
ais and prizes will be valuable. Carkeek is
training here for the half-mile run, and will
show the fiers from other clubs some great
speed. Ed Pacne is doing good work in the
sprints, and is getting very close 10 even Time
Yesterday he injured his leg tritie, but to-
day he is better. Carter Will also enter the
sprints.
Z erybody here is greatly excited over the
prospect of the Giants winning the senior
barge race and taking the laurels away from
the South Ends. The mel are training nara
and the new boat is expected from the East at
any time. The oars arrived here yes terday by
express and the boat is coming by fast freight.
1t has cost the club, including transportation,
some $3.50, and should be the best boat Oh the
coast to-day. With the great strength the
Giants have they should be able to break all
records on the Fourth OF July.
The programme for the boxing tournament
on the evening of the Fourth has about been
arranged. Jack Hopkins of the Phoenix Ath-
letic Club will go up against Ben Maxwell, a
local colored pugilist, in eight-round con-
| test. This will be hot battle, and both men
are in active training for the event.
George Green and Willis Armstrong will give
a six-round exhibition, and then Van Buskirk
and Patsey Corrigan will meet in the eight
round contest. The event of the evening will
be an elght-round bout between Charlie Tur-
ner, formerly of this city, and Tom Barry, the
erstwhile middle-weigh ght champion OF the coast.
Barry is training at Antioch. Corrigan is
training here and getting some OF his flesh off.
Entries beginning TO come in for the
fie ld-day events, and it is evident that the
games at Goodwater Grove will be a great
ucceSs.
The Stockton Road Club, which was organ
lied about q week ago, has some very speedy
riders in il and will make a good showing in
the races on the Fourth. There Will be one
mile county championship race on that day
and this will bring out all the local talent.
There is a project on foot to hold 25-mlle
track relay race between the members OF the
bicycle annex of the Stockton Athletic Asso-
citation and the Stockton Road Club. This
viii probably come off soon.
Arrangements are being made for several
hose races here, and one week from next Sum

STAMPEDED THE HERD.
How Pat McDonough's Friends Res
cued His Cattle From the
Authorities.

Pat McDonough, who keeps a dairy
ranch on the San Bruno road. would have
had to bail his cattle out of the Pound
yesterday but for the assistance of the
eighbors, and now he is liable to lose his
milk permit and some of his friends their
liberty over the affair.
Some time ago McDonough was warned
to keep his cows out of the swamp and he
did until the Board of Health employees
turned cir backs. Then the cows went
back to the morass.
Yesterday Inspectors Dockery and
Davis caught ten of McDonough's cows
feeding in the swamp and started to drive
them to the Pound. McDonough hastily
gathered number of has neighbors, made
a short cut through the hills and just
about the time the authorities thought
they had the bovines safe a cavacade on
horseback and in wagons beating tin cans
and bowling wildly swept down on the
herd and stampeded it effectually.
The last the inspectors saw of McDon-
ough's cows they were headed for home
with flying tails and McDonough is on
the black list.

TAMALPAIS EXCURSION,
First Scenic Railway Trip Up
Marin County'S Great
Mountain.
The Whole Length Of the Read From
Base to Summit Is Given at
Eight Miles.

A merry party of about thirty people ac-
cepted the invitation to take the first trip
over the Mill Valley and Mt. Tamalpais
Scenic Railway on Saturday last.
On reaching the terminus of the narrow
gauge road at the depot, narrow-gauge
locomotive, attached to which was a
handsome, commodious observation car
similar to the open ones on the Cliff
House road, except that on each side
were sliding gates that could be closed by
lever in the hands of the conductor at
one end of the car before the train started
thus preventing the possibility of person
being thrown out of the car while in
motion. 1t had a seating capacity of
sixty, and was furnished with powerful
brakes on the wheels, and as an extra pre-
caution had track brakes as well, to be
used in cases of emergency.
On the way up our whole attention was
occupied with the strangeness and beauty
of the trip. While as feat in engineer
ing the building of the road may not be
the conception and the skill that con-
structed it.
For the first mile or more the track fol-
lows up the Blithedale Canyon, rising
higher and higher above the bed of the
creek, running through the shady forest of
redwoods, buckeyes and fragrant by
trees, with here and there cozy cottage
tucked away in some sequestered
nook; passing now an artificial
pond, with its pretty boats and
the children playing in them,
now giving glimpse of a camping party
with It's tents and hammocks and all sorts
of out-of-door conveniences. Close below
lay the little villages of Mill Valley ana
Blithedale, almost hidden among the
trees. Beyond opened out the bay of Sau-
salto, with its big ships, steamers and
iaunty yachts and pleasure boats,
while on the steep hillsides above could
be seen the villas and cottages nearly
hidden in the abundant growth of trees
and shrubbery; then there came to the
view the farther reach Of the waters Of the
bay OF San Francisco, Alcatraz, with its
bristling cannon, Yerba Buena and Angel
Island, Goat Island and the Two Brothers.
The whole length of the road from base
to the summit of the mountain is nearly
eight miles, stopping some $50 feet below
the almost perpendicular jasged peak on
top; up this good trails will be made, so
that one will feel that he has had some
thing to do in the way of mountain climb
ing.
1t is expected that the road will be COM
pleted by the first of August and that from
it's opening it will afford one of the most
popular trips in the State of California.

He Makes His Appearance at Pre-
sidio Park Next Sunday.
The third game of the City league base-
ball pionship series will be played at
the Preside Athletic Park tomorrow. The
Pacifics and the 1mperials will be the con-
testants and real old-fashioned game is
sure to result as both teams are heavy bat
ters.
The Imperials have been materially
strengthened since they played the Cali
fornias, and this being their second game,
they will naturally improve In their team
work. Nicols is said to be an expert
twirler, and if he is able to hold the Pa
citics down bit the sloggers of his team
will surely hammer out victory.
The Pacifcs, on the other hand, are
leaders in the race so far, having won the
only game in which they participated, and
are confident of adding the lmperials'
scalp to their collection.
Following is the makeup of the oppos-
ING climbs.

increase OF interest in sports of all kinds
throughout the northern portion of the State
is simply wonderful. Especially is this the
fact in tennis and trap-shooting.
At heew1ck, in the neart of the mountains,
few miles from Redding, a tennis tourna-

established at the towns OF Willows, Orland,

blcyellng has become almost a craze. Mr..
Upson reports that never in his long expert
enee has he seen such large numbers OF fish
and game, doves being especially plentiful.
The first crop OF the latter is flying and the sec
ond crop is in the rest, thus proving. that the
new game law is eminently beneficial.

most experienced piscatorlalists of the Pa

citc Coast;
Many of our fishermen still cling to the hope
that our streams will some day be stocked with
varieties of trout which win remain conIiHu-
ously III the streams in which they are placed
and supplant the indigenous variety which run
10 salt water. Now, a little thought on this
subject should convince them that they hope
In vain. Every effect has a cause. If our in
dlgenous trout is enGdTomous there certainly
cause is not difficult to find. Our seasons are
divided into two, the wet and the dry.
during long,. dry summer the termination
OF parasites in the water is very great. These
prey on the fish as fisas do on d dog, causing
them to seek relief This they find in cool
temperatures or saline water, hence it has be-
come habit Of the suecies. Insect pests are
the cause, the migration to salt water the
effect. Now when We place foreign varieties
oI the same species under the same conditions
is il not natural to assume that they viii adopt
the same habit as the indigenous species? The
cause which forced the habit on one species
viii do so on the other Take our California
trout and place il in Eastern waters, where the
trout do not seek the sea, and they will soon
sdapt themselves to their changed conditions
and remain IL the streams where they are
p sced.
hese facts being clear, is It not better for US
10 protect the fish we have and be thankful
mat II has no superior, either as game
nghter or 8 tOOthSome dish, when caught?
The clense in our fish laws permitting the cap
ture OF these fish in tide-waters when they
come in from the sea 10 spawn is very pernl-
ciouS, and opens the door TO Illicit practices
and frauds which il is almost impossible to
counteract. EXpunge This clause and protect
the true California trout, or steelhead, iridea
trout, and our streams will again become pro-
ductiVe.

vi VSi small, but a mighty In
teresting stream for all
that. 1t issues from the sides of d
mountain in a thousand tiny rills,
more or less and of almost any colors.
These gather themselves into pools and
lakelets on the mountains side, cover
ing an area of about200 acres. Over
flowing their boundaries they slowly
trickle down the sides of the mountain
forming small cliffs, the most wonder
full in the world. From distance one
would hardly believe what the eyesight
reveals-white, black, orange, lemon,
terracotta, green, blue. led, pink, sep
crate and in manifold combinations
stand out before him. It is hill Of
painted cliffs on the sides of the noun
tain that Uses high above. And the
odd part of it is that each of these ex-
quisite colcrs represent different tenn
perature. Does that startle your cred
ulty? Even so it is true.
When throug with this beautiful paint
ing process, these waters again comes
together aud then, as if full of mischief
like pack of small: boys trying to play
hide and seek, dive down and remain
under the ground for a space OF two
miles and then flow out from the mouth
OF cOnyOnlta as one or the cleareSC,
most beautiful, green streams imagin-
able. Where these waters emerge from
the mountain into the little lakes they
are hot, boiling hot. During several
hundred feet and also many degrees
of holiness, so. that when they again
see daylight they we're much cooler.
This then is Boiling River, an under
ground mountain stream of hot water.
But you ask, where is it? Where
can I see it? Its in Yellowstone Park
