SAN MATEO HUNT
PROVIDES SPORT
OF HIGH CLASS
Large Fields Follow the
Clubs Drag Hounds Over
a Picturesque Country

A sUNTING is the sport of kings!'' So
ri wrote the immortal Yorick, and it is
an easy matter to agree with him
after seeing a meet of any pack oe
hounds, or, better still, having the mourt
Ga a fayolite hunter and joining in the
exhilarating gallop across country.
The San Mateo County Hent is in full
swing at the present time, and its mem
bers and their guests are out twice each
week. on Wednesday and Saturday. Three
O'Clock is the hour chosen for the meet.
This allows business men an opportunity
to Slip down by train or the San Mateo
electric cars and join the field. The mem
bers of the hunt turn out in excellent
style, and they are without exception SUI
perior horsemen.
Owing to the nature of the fences and
the necessity of running over friendly
territory a drag hunt is substituted for
the fox or hare, the usual game in Eu-
rope. The boy who lays on the drag is
handicapped in having not only to per
form that duty, but also in having to take
down the top rail of each fence, thus re-
moving any possible obstruction to the
budding sportsman in his flight across the
country. At that. the jumps are sufficient
ly stiff to stop the average rider who has
not mastered the art of clearing them
while on horseback
When horses are ridden for a time over
fences from which the top rail has been
removed they generally pull harder than
they would otherwise, and rarely take
their fences in fine style As of necessity
the field must negotiate the fence in sim
gle file the horses arc anxious to get over,
and as a rule they run in too close before
taking off for the jump.
The meet to-day will be at Tanforan
racecourse at o'clock. A car of the San
Mateo electric road will leave Holy Cross
the meet in ample time to see the horse
men gather for the chase. A car will pass
the racetrack on the return journey about
$3.50 o'clock

MANAGERS CLAIM
TO HAVE SIGNED
MANY PLAYERS
" Nick " Williams Receives
Two Offers From Boston
and Philadelphia Clubs

p VERIFYING in the baseball world
J. seems to have settled down to a nor
L NAL state again, and no new sensa-
tions are cropping up. Affairs of the
new league are resting easily at present.
The magnates Of the new Pacific Coast
organiza ton figure on having a great sea-
son during 1908. and scoff at the idea oc
any opposition league spelling their plans.
The work of signing players continues.
and most of the teams which viii battle
for the championship next season appear
To have plenty of material with which to
open the campaign. In fact, players have
been signed up in faster order this year
than ever before. all of which must mean
there is method in this madness.
Peter Lohman is doing a lot OF still
hunting and but little talking From
present indications 1T would appear Peter
intends to stay with Cal Ewing for an
other year at least. He has been watch
ing the amateurs closely of late. 1t is
tipped off the veteran has signed young
Charley Baum TO do some slab work for
the 1903 Oakland nine. Baum is a clever
yOunEster and was given chance by
Harris last season. He should easily
make good in fast company If he gets in
and works hard.
Nick Williams. the Berkeley lad who
pitched such phenomenal ball for the To-
cal team last season ana IneQ signed With
the Columbus team for 1903. has a hard
luck story TO pass out. Nick did not
realize how valuable he was at the time
and when the offer from Columbus came
he went to it and signed up at a good
figure. Since that time. however. he has
been offered swell jobs to twirl for the
Philadelphia Athletics, and also the Bos-
ton Nationals. Connie Mack few davs
ago sent Williams a contract to sign
which called for nearly twice as much
money as he is to receive for his services
with the Columbus team. Following close
upon the heels of Mack's offer came one
from the management of <the Boston
team, which also called for q big salary
When Williams saw the turn affairs had
taken he felt hurt lie blames himself
for not holding out a while longer. Had
he waited he could be a member of the
greatest ball team in the wOrld-the Phil
adelphia Athletics With the support nc
would receive he could easily have made
good and become a star outright
Much interest is being manifested in the
appearance of the two favorites of former
days, Joe Corbett and big Bill I.ange, on
the diamond tomorrow afternoon. The
fans will eagerly watch the movements
OF the two old-time stars. They will have
a chance to see how they compare with
the diamond heroes of to-day Conditions
are against COrbett and Lange. as they
are out of training. but nevertheless n
will be a great advertisement for the pair
and will certainly draw an immense crowd
to the Eighth-street lot.

DENVER, Jan. ia special to the
Republican from Cheyenne, Wyo.. says
the League of American Sportsmen has
petitioped the Wyoming Legislature TO
suspend the open season on antelope until

antelope of Wyoming are more numerous
than those of any other State, but the
number is not more than 10 per cent of
what 1t was five years ago. At the pres
ent rate of slaughter they will be exter-

CORNATzAR TO BE PROMOTED.

It is generally accepted among pas senger men that the Rock Island will not appoint successor to J. J. Good rich, district passenger agent, who resigned few weeks since to go to St. Joseph, Mo-, but that on the con trary J. N. Cornatzar, division pas senger agent of the Frisco, will be placed at the head of the Rock Island Frisco system in this section of the country, and that he will be eventual ly promoted to the position of assist ant general passenger agent of the Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis & New Orleans line.
 MT. Cornatzar is one of the most popular railroad passenger men in the South and his friends have an equal confidence in his capability and hope to hear ot his preferment.

GRANTED FULL PARDON.

Little Rock, July 1.-Gov. Davis to- day pardoned Robert Simmons of Jackson county, who was convicted in January, 1902, of selling liquor without license and fined $50 in each of six cases, the condition being inn posed that he shall never again en- gage in the illegal sale of liquor in the state of Arkansas. A pardon was granted April 16, 1902, of similar fines on condition that he give bond of $5,000 to the state that he would not again violate the laws of the state. The convictions were held up to de- termine whether he would keep faith in the agreement and the governor has been advised that he has in all things kept such faith. He is there fore granted full and free pardon and absolved from the bond.
