VIsALIA, Cal., Oct. IA. 1896.
Editor Call: According to reliable reports re-
ceived here, large game is plentiful in the
mountains Only short distance from the
Mineral King store several fine bears have
been killed. Reports from Porterville state
that bears and other large game are coming
out in the opening somewhat earlier this sea-
son than usual. AS Porterville has some very
good shots, we may expect 10 hear of favorable
results. Several parties will go out Sunday
and 1T is to be hoped that all promises that
have been made during the past week will be
paid. There is no reason why they should not
be, for quail are plentiful even here in the
valley.
Sunday sports of late have been devoted
mostly TO baseball between local mines, con-
sisting OF professional and business men. Last
Sunday the business men of Main street created
lot OF fUn for their patrons and friends. The
upper or east-enders won by score OF IL to 3.
Now comes the "Darktown' club with q chal-
lenge to any local club bar none.
The regular team intended to play Bakers
field on the 18th, but owing to the inability of
the pitcher in going with them the game has
been declared off,

to the Oriental chair was fOregone con-
clusion. To succeed him in the deputy
grand masters position Hon. Thomas
Flint Jr. of San Juan was advanced from
the senior grand warden's station to seat
in the East
Judge Frank M. Angellotti of San
Rafael was advanced from the South to
the West, taking the station made vacant
by the promotion of Thomas Flint Jr.
The contest for the position of junior
grand warden was the only one that
brought out the voting strength of the
members, and in this Charles L. Patton,
an attorney-at-law in San Francisco, who
holds the position of president of the
board of trustees of the Widows and Or
phans' Home, the cornerstone of which
was laid on last Wednesday, was elected
by handsome majority.
George Johnson, the popular grand Sec
retary, and Edward Coleman, treasurer
were reelected by acclamation.
The question that at one time seemed to
bring about good deal of discussion was
the management of the Masonic cemetery,
but the Grand Lodge settled that matter
in quick order by simply saying it was not
a matter that came within its jurisdiction,
and any irregularity that may be in its
management must be settled by the San
Francisco lodges within whose jurisdic-
tion is the cemetery question. Although it
is not charged that any serious trouble ex-
lists in the management of the cemetery,
some of the shareholders had an impress
sion that it could be more economically
conducted.
The installation of the new officers will
be held this afternoon, after which the
lodge will close.

THE WHEELMEN.
Two Trials Against the Worlds Five
Mile Record Tomorrow.

Two Trials Against the Worlds Five
Mile Record Tomorrow.
There has been so much talk about incor-
rect timing and scoring in connection with
the associated clubs big ten-miIe road
race last Sunday that the road-racing and
records committee has called a meeting
of all officials for next Monday evening at
o'clock, at the rooms of the Olympic
Club Wheelmen, to complete the score and
hear protests. All officials are requested
TO bring any memoranda and evidence
they can get in regard to those riders who
finished between the sixteenth and thir-
tieth positions.
But after all there is little blame resting
on the officials, and certainly nothing but
credit for the road-racing committee.
When the matter is simmered down it
will be found that the timers made cleri-
cal mistake OF one minute and ten Sec
onds in figuring the scratch mems time.
which was easily corrected that the scor-
ers missed recording two or three men
who finished, and as they finished after
sixteenth place and there were only
twenty place prizes, il made little differ
ence; in fact, the scorers had the record
OF two men who finished minus their dis
tinguIshing numb bers, and it was no fault

The officials of the race feel that they
did their best, and that best was as well as
the work could have been possibly done;
and naturally they are considerably hurt
over an article which appeared in an
evening paper dwelling on their gross in.

appointed because of their pulp with the

Burris, HadenfeIdt, Sharpe or Fawcett
were appointed for their ability in that

Hyde, the Hall brothers and myself, we
feel that we did our best and did it well,
and that we could give lessons to the man
who wrote the article referred to.

CRICKET CHIRPS.
The Defeat OF California by the
Australians,

The Defeat OF California by the
Australians.
Now that the Australians have come,
conquered and departed, few reflections
on the local cricket event of the decade
may be in order. That our eighteen-strong
team should have suffered defeat at the
hands OF such consummate masters OF the
game as Trott and his star combination
was almost inevitable. But our Eastern
brothers will surely comment on the fact
that after disposing of so strong batting
aggregation for 1913 runs we made so
miserable showing with the bat. The
visitors themselves were surprised at this,
for the bowling of Robertson and Cookson
and the fielding of Butt, Hogue, Robert
son, Hood and Others had led them to
expect greater opposition when they took
the field. How was their anticipation
realized?
With the exception of Keeling of Lake
County, who, in both innings, made the
top score, playing over after over of the
deadly bowling with confidence and accu-
racy; OF Bowhiil, Simmonds (who shaped
well) and Hogue, what account did all our
reputed batsmen give of themselves? They
fell like tenpins before the hurricane balls
of Jones and the crafty breakers of Dom
mar and McKibbin.
The result of the big match seems to
point very obvious moral, VIZ, that the
batting practice hitherto INDUCED in has
been wholly ineffective. 1t is no practice
at all to stand at the nets and slog full
pitches and Iobs about the field. But how
often have men the chance, or Thursday
or Saturday afternoon, of getting anything
better? 1t could surely be arranged so
that at least one of our best bowlers should
be on hand on these occasions and do a
little amateur coaching.
Some day We may run to professional
ground bowler and systematized coaching,
but in the meanwhile an effort should be
made to better the existing order of
things.
The Penryn team will arrive in this
City on Friday and play Saturday and
Sunday the Pacifcs and Alamedas.
Which club they Will meet first has yet to
be arranged.

ARMORY CLUB BOXING,
Shannon and Lewis Fought a
Draw and Anthony Whipped
Carkeek.
Herget, Owing to His Poor Condition,
Was Defeated by Agnew in
the Fifth Round.

The Armory Club had tolerabiy good
attendance at boxing exhibition given
under its auspices last evening in Wood
wards pavilion.
The first event of the evening was an
eight-round contest between Billy Lewis
of Sacramento and Billy Shannon of San
Francisco. Tom Sharkey was selected to
referee the contest. Billy Jordan intro
duced him as the coming champion, but
Tom thinks that he has earned the title of
champion because of Corbett's refusal to
fight him.
1t was 9:15 o'clock when the gong
sounded for the first round. Lewis was
first to lead a right on Shannon's ribs.
Shannon got home several good, stiff left
hand punches, and toward the end of the
round he brought Lewis to his knees by a
right-hand swing on the jaw.
Shannon was first to land in the second
round, after which give-and-take punches
followed. Lewis now fought bit foul,
but Shannon did not protest Neither
man seemed to have gained any adyan-
tage at the end. Lewis went to his corner
with bleeding nose.
In the third round Lewis led with his
left and attempted to push Shannon over
the ropes. Shannon landed several lefts.
but Lewis was dangerous, as he swung his
right several times close to Shannon 5 jaw.
In the fourth Shannon got a bloodv
nose, but he landed the most blows.
Lewis was swinging his right in wild
manner.
The fifth was bad for Lewis. In the first
rally. he got bad cut in the left ear
which reused his temper and he smashed
wildly at Shannon. This was Shannon's
round.
