The Joe wilkins murder case was
given to the jury last evening at 6

Mr.. Bergstrom, his attorney, patted
him on the back and told him that the
case is not over yet. Wilkins mother
and also his wife and children were
in the courtroom and the scene was a
pathetic one as the tears streamed
down their cheeks. The father of
Charles Collins, the man who was shot
on the night of June 10Th. 1890. for
which wilkins was convicted, was al
so in the court room and occupied a

Welch, Alexander and Smyth will go, but
the other three cannot get away. Mr..
Fuller will take the place of one of them
and two other substitutes will have to be
appointed by Chief Consul Kerrigan at
once.

popular trainer, who has in the past han
died such champions as Sanger. Cabanne,
McCrea, Hamilton, Wells and bob"
Terrill, will arrive here at AS this after
noon from the East. Mr.. Skaters plans
are not known, but it is thought he comes
here to take charge of Mcfarland and
Stevens. When he was in the State last
winter with the Syracuse team he made
many friends and they will make it seem
like home to him when he gets here to-
night.

shooting at Point Reyes, and that what he
did bag was only an average mess.

125 as reported. Last Saturday and Sun

leave a few birds for stocking purposes.

John Tams, young San Franciscan,
who made his mark at Cripple Creek by
discovering and selling mines and thus
amassing a fortune, has returned to this
City and is INDUCING in his old passion
for Understanding. Last Tuesday he went
with his brother and invaded the Suisun
marshes for couple of days. The genial
John, who is noted for his truthfulness,
as admitted by jealous brother, bagged
fifty-eight duck, 10 say nothing OF snipe
and small birds.
The clucks were divided as follows:
Canvasback II, teal IL, widgeon 9. sprig
II, mallard 8. The actual hunting time
was less than eight hours as John got
stuck in the mud, and weighing as he
does 230 pounds, 1t took his brother and q
gamekeeper two hours to get him out.
The brother threw fence board for him
to cling to until the keeper went for a
block and tackle. A rope was then thrown
which the mirsd hunter made fast under
his arms while stake was being driven
to make fast to. Then he was snaked out
like big redwood log. Hadn't been for
that I'd killed hundred" said John /;
''as it was, only GOT forty shots"

The Y. M. G. A.-Lick School game to-

citing contest. There is personal enmity
and much rivalry behind the match.
Both teams play creditable football.
Lick has gone through the season with
out once meeting defeat. The school was
not member OF the State Academic Am
ateur League, and consequently the team
did not contest with st. Matthew's School
of San Mateo for the State championship
in the sub collegiate class.
The little Y. NJ G.. A. lightweight team
has an unprecedented record. 1t has been
organized three years, has played thirty
five games and has never been defeated.
It's latest creditable showing was against
the University club team, which it defeat
ed in practice game just before the re-
cent society and charity game, in which
the army and navy team outplayed the
big university men. The Y. M. G. A.
eleven weigh on the average 1872 pounds,
while the LICK School eleven average
Twenty-Five pounds heavier to the man.

Sporting Editor CalE-SIR: Last Tuesday the
Examiner published all account of the game
between the Mill Valley Football Club and the
Themis of San Francisco, which entirely
erroneous: Among other things it was stated
that the effective work behind the line on the
part of the Mill Valley team won the game.
AS IT was the passing was so poor that the
ball rarely lett the quarters hands, and when
it did reach its destination the runner was
generally downed before he passed his own
line. The score published by the Examiner
was Mill Valley 16, Themis 4. The correct
score, which can be testified to by C. F. Re-
gan, the referee, is Themis 6. Mill Valley 4.
The Themis played good, clean game.

THE GUN.
Sportsmen Enjoyed Good Shooting
on Bay Farm Island Years Ago.
SPALDING

Sportsmen Enjoyed Good Shooting
on Bay Farm Island Years Ago.
Duck shooting in the marshes that
margin the bay is not as good as the
lovers of the sport would wish, and it is
extremely doubtful if there will be any
shooting worthy of mention from now
until the close of the season, as the birds
have scattered throughout the country.
From Mount Eden and Alvarado news
has been received that some of the resi-
dents of Alvarado have had good sport
during the past week popping spoonbills,
which are tolerably plentiful in the marsh
ponds.
Duck-shooting in the swamp lands near
San Pablo is said to be very fair. but
owing to the prevailing fine weather the
birds depart for the bay after they are
disturbed in their. feeding grounds. The
morning and evening shooting is very
good.
Among some of the prominent sports
men who thought nothing of bagging
thirty or forty ducks in days shoot on Bay
Farm Island in the seventies were: Jerry
Browell, Bill Clark, Judge Rix, Fred Van
Sicklen, John Stack, Dick Brooks, Billy
Dugan, Fred johnson, Ned Edwards, Bob
Lowenberg, Harry Quinton, Harry Put
took, E. Lynn, Tommy Potter, Tom
o. Brien, M. Ault, Bill HARRISON, Charles
Gaze, Charles Precht, Henry Cohn, Judge
Carroll and others, some of whom are to-
day as passionately fond of the game of
hit or miss as they were twenty years ago.
But the birds are annually growing
scarce on the marshes within easv reach
of this City because of the large extent of
country in Southern California which has
within the past ten years been made fer
tile by the irrigating system. In fact a
large proportion of the villa ducks which
are shipped to this City during the season
for shooting are killed on the plains of
Southern California, where, twenty years
ago, not bird was seen at any time of
the year. Then, again, 1t is said that in
Alaska the natives gather thousands of
eggs of wild ducks and geese which are
shipped to England yearly.
The SpOrtsman's Club OF Portland, Or,
has appointed committee to confer with
United States Senator Mitchell with a
view of introducing a bill in Congress to
stop the shipment of the eggs of aquatic
birds out of the country, and it would be
to the credit of sportsmen of this State If
the Olympic Gun Club, which is now the
strongest club of its kind in California,
would appoint a committee to interview
Senator Perkins on the matter when he
arrives.
Quail-shooting is said to be first class, as
the birds have forsaken the heavy timber
for the open country, where they can BE-
