of baseball. On last Sunday they had a
crowd out practicing.
The South Ends intend to begin work
NEXT week and build ar annex to store
their boats, as the present space is in
sufficient.
The Dolphins' baseball game for charity
last Sunday was a success and a neat sum
was acquired. The frantic efforts of some
of the players 10 stop the risky ball kept
the large crowd IN good humor. At times
it was feared that Bill LANCE. who acted
as umpire, would go into mysteries over
the peculiar style Of playing. Since the
game the members OF the Syndicates feel
that they can defeat the oarsmen on the
water as we'll as on land. and they have
posted notice at the clubhouse challeng-
ing the oarsmen to a race, which will occur
shortly. The Syndicate crew are:
James Cronin, stroke; Al Laib after
waist; Thomas Keogh, forward waist ;
Andy Pastene, bow, and the oarsmen are
represented by the following crew: Joseph
Earls stroke; L. J. Sullivan, afterwaist;
/. Duncan, forwardwaist; G. J. Stewart,
bow.
The Syndicates would also like to hear
from the South Ends, Pioneers or Arie Is
for match game of baseball.

Will Patch will not enter in the skiff
race in the next regatta, but will row with
the crew and will assist Adam Schuppert
in coaching and training them.
This is to be regretted, as race between
Patch, Hadley of the Alamedas and Cole
of the University Club would be very in
teresting.
The Pioneers will hold a picnic next
Sunday at Hunters Point. A game of
baseball will be played, and as plenty of
refreshments will be taken along jolly
time is expected.
Gaudaur, the champion oarsman, an
nounces that he will row any man in the
world. in this country, in June next, for
from $500 to $4,000 a side. Failing to get
a match on these terms, Gaudaur will go
to England after August l next, and row
Harding and Barry, both races to be de-
cided within three weeks of each other,
the stake in each race to DE from $3.50 to
$500 a side.
Both "Wag" Harding and Barry, the
oarsmen, seem anxious TO row Jake eau
daur for the sculling championship of the
word. They prefer, however, TO row in
England. Barry has already signed pre-
hminary articles and posted money for a
race with Gaudaur for ESQ a side, allow
ing Gaudaur for expenses. He is also try
ingto arrange match with Harding.
George Bubear said TO a preventative
of the United Associated Presses yester-
day that Barry was almost certain to de-
feat Harding, and expressed the opinion
that neither Harding nor Barry was the
equal of Gaudaur in their present form.
