of the Associated Cycling Clubs, which
was scheduled to be run Tomorrow over
the straightaWay course from FruitvaIe
to Haywards, has been postponed for one
week owing to the inclement weather
The racing board decided that this was
the best plan, as 1t is hard on the riders
and somewhat dangerous to run a race
over muddy road, and besides the mon
will be afforded another week in which
to train for the event The entries al
ready number over three score and more

THREATENING
WEATHER IS
DUCK WEATHER
Hence Gunmen Go Joyously
to Their Preserves This
Week.

With the thermometer registering over
100 degrees the gunners who went in quest
of ducks last Sunday enjoyed but little
sport to compensate them for their exer-
tionS. The members of the Teal ana
Ibis clubs did no shooting, while there
was but little organized shooting on any
of the preserves. Those who did secure
birds did not enjoy them, as they would
not stand transportation. Down about
Alvarado no birds were to be seen.
Although the week opened with poor
promise of sport for some time TO come,
It closed with frightened prospects.
Threatening weather is duck weather, and
the elements have done more than threat
clubmen will seek their preserves joy
ously this week and expect well-filled
game bags. The district over which men
may shoot will be extended, as ground
that has been dry will have filed with
water, thus forming new ponds.
Reports received from Southern Oregon
are TO the effect that enormous numbers
of birds are to be found there. These will
In time come southwark and will spread
out over this country, providing sensa-
tional sport later on.
A. NJ Shields was the most successful
man last Sunday on the Pringle Clubs
preserve near Suisun, securing, eighteen
birds, sixteen of them being sprig.
The men on the Olympic Gun Club pre-
serve last Sunday were: George Walker,
Dr A. 7. Derby, H. L. Miller, Howard
Despite the heat, they tried the sport, the
average bag being about five birds.
On Wednesday the sport was better,
owing to the marked change in the
weather Al Cumming secured eleven
sprig, four mallard and white goose,
w. D. Macarthur killed seven sprig, two
mallard, a goose and a spoonbiil. A F.
Hoepke, H. L. Miller and j. Homer Fritch
all had fair sport over the decoys
w. f. Whittier Jr. did great execution
near Suisun on Wednesday, getting 1I6
birds. This is the best shooting reported
from any of the preserves this Season.

TAIL-ENDERS
WILL MEET IN
A HOT FIGHT

This is the week in which the balltossers
of Oakland are going to try the great act
of forcing the Crabs of Santa Cruz into
last place. The Dudes are inflated with
notion that nothing can stop them, SO for
midable have they proved of late. On
the other hand, Manager Tuttle of Santa
showing of his aggregation to nothing
but hard luck. The fact is that Santa
Cruz has been suffering from weakness in
the box. Whelan has been pitching win
ming ball, but Andrews and Balsz appear
to have lost their cunning. Tuttle has
strengthened his team by substituting
Mccarthy for Williams at second base,
and he thinks that he now possesses the
fastest infleld in the State. Mccarthy
was formerly the mainstay of the Wat
sonvllle club. Besides being a good
striker, he is capable of playing any posi-
ton on the diamond.

j. B. Martin, the noted fox terrier ex-

tins action is warmly applauded by the
fanciers of the coast.
A movement has been instituted by the
st. Bernard Club in petitioning the San

by his impartial enforcement of the rules.
1t is unlikely that the San Francisco
Kennel Club will accede to the request
of the convention of speciality clubs to
