A Georgia colored man, Andrew Bon.
ner by name, is manifesting his reli-
gious enthusiasm in a substantial,
though unusual way. Donner is sim
pie minded negro, filled to overlooking
with what his admiring wife terms ode
Oh time religion" He resides with her
in College Park, village a few miles
from Atlanta. His ambition for years
has been to build a church for the ben
ent of some of his own race, the ma
terial used to be procured with his own
earnings, and no workmen to assist
him in the rearing of the edifice. With
utter disregard of legal measures, An
drew selected two years ago a site for
the church of his dreams, which he ex-
poets to be a monument to his mem
DRY long after he has returned to dust
The fact that he does not own the
ground has never disturbed him.
When far-sighted friends urged him
to wait until the ground could be
bought for the purpose he paid no heed
to the proposition, but kept to his
purpose. Every spare pen
ny was spent by him for lumber and
nails. The work has necessarily been
slow, but now, after twenty-four
months of patient labor Andrew
gazes with pride upon the building,
which is almost covered. The old man
is said to have sometimes denied his
family bread that he might save money
for his pet project.

OARSMEN SELECTED TO
 REPRESENT THE DOLpHINS

Captain Kennedy of the Dolphins has selected the men who are to represent the club in the various rowing events this season, and already the men are in active training.
 The club expects its Junior crew to make a good showing this season. The men selected to compose the crew are: J. Hartman, stroke; A. Michelette, after waist; T. J. Kennedy, forwardwaist; w o. Patch, bow, and Eddie Hartman, cock swain.
 Pape is training assiduously for the senior skif, and hopes to lower Dennis colors at the next meeting.
 T. J. Hopkins will represent the Dol phins in the junior skiff. while T. R. Kee- nan will race in the senior shell.
 The race between w. O. Patch and Alec Pape for the club diamond medal will not be held until week before the clubs picnic, which is scheduled for some time in April.
 Two junior crews have been organized for the coming season by the South Ends. One boat will be manned by William | Barry, Charles Jenkins, Hugh McIsaac and T. I. Fitzpatrick. The second barge will have Charles Skelly, Frank Tobin, it's crew.
 The South Ends also intend having two senior crews. Bob McArthur will soon order the Midgets to commence training and defend the championship.
 Pop Foley will have an active op- ponent in Len Hausler, who was admit ted to membership by the South Ends at their last meeting. Hausler intends en- tering the junior shell race. A committee representing all the row ing clubs will visit F. X. Ryan of the railroad company regarding the removal of the old bridge at Fl Campo. Should the bridge be removed that pleasure re- sort will be able to boast one of the finest courses in the country.

CH0YNSKI AND
 MCCOY MAY MEET HERE.

The National Athletic Club has the crack welter weight, Tom Ryan of Syra- cuse, now under it's wing. Ryan IS matched to fight George Green, and un- less he was confident of disposing of the local lad it is extremely doubtful that he would journey such long distance for whipping.
 Green says that he was not right when he faced and was badly drubbed by Walcott, and that he will prove to his friends on the next occasion that he is still able to go the distance and win out against a hard game Certainly Ryan will compel Green to extend himself, and II George is found wanting he will grace fully retire from the business of fighting Tor living, at least it is hoped so.
 The Empire Club is by no means dead that is, according to latest reports from people who are in a position to know thing or two about the inside doings of nghtlng clubs. One man prominently connected with the turf has seemingly been a stumbling block to the interests or the club and it's directors have finally concluded to dispense with the services or the gentleman, and they have accom- ficulty.
 The Tut Ryan and Choynsk match IS off and an attempt will now be made to match Choynski against Mccoy, Maher or Sharkey. If the two former pugilistS refuse to meet California Joe the club would not be shooting far off the mark if II matched Choynsh against ShaTkey, as the last time the local heavyweights met the contest did not terminate satisfac~ torily.
 Sharkey is ready to fight any person and in any club. He should be given a chance when there is "a fair field and no favor, to demonstrate to the people of this city if he is really entitled to the distinction which he and his friends claim.
 Any person who had seen Griffo ham, mer the Vallejo champion a few weeks ago and who witnessed the contest at the Olympic Club cannot but say that the Australian did not try to extend himself. Griffo must have had an object in reserv- ing his speed and punches. Possibly he is playing for big game. At any rate Me- Cornell was fortunate that Griffo held his left in check or his nose would have been diScolored long before the decision was rendered. But with all due respect to Me- Connell it must be said that for a green 'un he is a surprisingly clever fellow, although a weak puncher.
 George Bishop, better known as Bid dy," stated yesterday that he would like a turn at Jimmy Lawlor or any 125-pound fighter on the coast. Bishop is promis- ing looking fellow, who carries a pretty good record
 The Excelsior Athletic Club held a meeting on Tuesday evening, February l. and the following officers were elected for the ensuing term: James H. KelMledy. president; John Horrigan, vice-president: Fred M. Waldstein, secretary; Geral John Duffy, sergeant at arms; board of directors-Eugene Murray, Frank Skuse. Hugh Mclaughlin, George Bastian and Henry Ahlers. The club is in good bers in good standing. It was decided to hold the next monthly exhibition on Monday evening, February IA. The main event will be an eight-round contest for valuable trophy between Jack Sullivan of the Jefferson Athletic Club and Jimmy Riley of the Excelsior Club.

counties quail, trout and game become scarcer. ano the man behind the gun with the rod ana ana reel, returns home with smaller bag ana ana creeI. This is to be expected, through the manner Tn which State and county officials re- luse 10 afford ample protection for the preser- Ndtloh or hsh and game from the depreda- tions of the campers and game killers. In Vlew of the fact of increasing population and more guns, game in the future-uness protec- tlon IS made at once-will not continue even as plentiful here in this county now.
 We do not know how we are to preserve game without giving it lawful protection and we positively assume that 1t is our Super xlsors duty to at once make provisions to en- iorce the State laws in that direction.
 Purissima and San Gregorio in this county are the most noted fishing resorts on the coast and are visited annually by hundreds of per sons who are fond of the sport of trout fishing East and north of these places, up the steep mountain sides in the tangled recesses of the redwoods, are camping places innumerable where the silence is only broken by the piping Of quail or the Tipping footfall of startled
 The entire county is prolific in game, and tnousands of dollars are annually left here by visiting sportsmen, which in itself should as a monetary consideration-be a self-inter esting proposition for county fathers to keep our county in the van as the leading game section in California.
 The Coast Advocate has always made firm stand in the interests of game protection 1t has cited undeniable facts of unlawful killings or game within our county: it states to-day that not long since the lagoon at San Gregorio was illegally seined during the night time, and the eaten or salmon was so great that it called for the services of a six-horse team to con vey the fish to Baden and South San Fran cisco, where they were openly disposed of The Coast Advocate stands ready to-day to give to our supervisors the source of such information to us, that the matter may be looked into and that they be shown the absolute necessity Of at once appointing a game warden.
 Our trout streams now full of small fry, and ere long the advance guard of campers will arrive and-unless checked-wilI proceed. as heretofore to depopulate the streams of the hnny inhabitants by their illegal fishing. Last season there were congregated in the neigh borhood Of Purissima Creek, one week before the trout season opened, sixty campers, Who, no doubt, commenced to and did fish without hindrance, regardless of the closed sea-
 
 We affirm that it is to this county's inter- ests and to the interests of game protection, that the export of game from this county be prohibited by the Board of Supervisors; that the law regarding the running of deer with hounds be repealed as being unhumane and an incentive to disregard county laws; and that the killing taking of game and fish after rightfall is. or should be- illegal, and that 1t IS the duty of the Board of Supervisors to that exist

ELECTRICITY
 IN THE RAGING GAME.
nous market shooter,

An article in an Eastern exchange from the pen of Clint (. Riley. would give the impression that the ex-official of the old Bay District track is becoming more than modernized in some of his racing ideas. After reviewing the barbarous use of the whip and spurs as applied by joc- keys on all of our American tracks, MT Riley thinks the Jockey Club and Turf Congress might, with good reason, look into the matter of the use of the electric battery on horses. Clint in concluding his article says: "Outlawed as it is, its effectiveness will lead to its surreptt- tious use by interruptions owners despite the penalties attending discovery. Legit- imatized and taken under the protection of racing rules, its use properly defined and always made known to the public, it would almost certainly be adopted by all racing owners as an adjunct of the high est value and utility" While there is much useless punishing of horses with the cruel spur, the writer can hardly agree duction of electricity into the racing game would elevate the sport. To be sure, a shock leaves no ill after effects, but If racing has deteriorated to this, better close the gates and scribble off some bright obituary notices
 If we must have electricity, why not have iron and copper horses constructed! Do away with the capricious and high
  up in the motor room of some downtown electrical concern and let him play a tune on the keys Some one, of these iron steeds would win and the public be guessing just the same.
 w. J. Spiers, the owner of the great sprinter O'Connell and several other horses, among them the two-year-old when his stable was ordered suspended for sixty days over the victory of the lat ter youngster one day this week. MT. Spiers says the two-year-old, while a good looker,' showed him nothing in his morning gallops until one morning when breezed through the stretch with OConnell. Then, apparently feeling his position, he stepped a quarter on the Inside track in 2414 seconds-a wonderful performance. His owner says there was nothing secret about the trial A num- Der of horsemen saw the run. and were as much surprised. as he was. All MT. explain the whole matter, and this the stewards will probably grant.
 Rubicon, who proved such vexatious customer for Tommy Griffin, has, been given a "let-up" by his recent purchaser, and will receive, so it is said. special prep" for the Burns Handicap. If he is treated as leniently as Libertine has been during his racing career the chestnut will be asked to carry couple of freight cars and a ton or two of scrap iron.
 The California Jockey Club has issued it's book of entries for the spring 2-year- old stakes Seven stakes are carded and Burns & Warehouse have from five to eight nominations in each
 The past two weeks racing at 1ngleside has been a very trying one for the talent. Reyersals in form have been frequent, and Judge Joe Murphy IS aging rapidly in an endeavor to unravel some of the aero batic displays. Sixty-six favorites have been served up piping hot and thirty -eight of them went to the dogs.

The Colorado puppy, Bo- nanZa, is out for laurels. The Shannon string has representation in both stakes and its candidates number no less than five.
