Jennings and his friends 10 support
Of bis candidacy, but lest he should
be deprived Of even the smallest OF

the fact that among them was the

BRYAN SPEAKS
IN MADISON.
The Exon eat Of Democracy ADDRESS
esq Madison County Audie nee Tues
day--National Issues Discussed.

1t Was unfortunate that owing 10
the short notice and the consequent
limited advertising which the fact
received, there was NOT a great
crowd present Tuesday 10 hear the
eloqent aud forceful speech Of Hon.
William Jennings Bryan, the great
COmmoner, and the man who TO-
lay stands nearer the heart Of
the masses Of American ppople than
any public mau in the Country.
Mr.. Bryan accompanied by dis
tinguished party uf State officials sr-
rived in Madison ON the early
morning train from Tallahassee.
Notwithstanding the unreasonable
hour committee composed OF couD-
" aud town officials met the distin-
iii guished guests at the depot a, d
escorted them to the Merchants bo-
vel where they remained until the
hour Of speaking, shortly after
ten O'Clock the party repaired TO the
court house, but it appearing that
the large court room could no,
accommodate the crowd the meeting
WAS adjourned to the public square
aud from the grand stand in the
center thereof Mr.. Bryan was intro
duced TO the assemblage in a briei
but neat speech by Supt. ]. A,
Hughes. Seated on the stage were
Governor Jennings, Attorney-Gen-
eral Elln, ComInisoner Burr, Hons
J. N. c. Stockton, N. b. Rroward
and other prominent citizens Of town
and State.
Mr.. Bryan at once entered into 8
discussion OF political issues, and
Hdaring bis speech touched upon thu
ariff, denounced the trusts, and at.
tackled strongly and with convincing
eIoquence the republican party, it,
methods and practices. Not once
lid he touch upon local affairs, but
plead with the people TO return t
tue truly democratic methods of
Jackson and jefferson. He paid bis
respects to the reorganlzers--so
calied-of the democratic party, ana
called upon all democrats TO stand
firmly by democratic principles.
For more than one hour Mr.. Bry
an charmed the assemblage with bit
eloquence and convinced them with
nis logic.
At the close Of the speech Mr.
Bryan and party were driven to the
s. A. L. depot where they boarded
a special train for Live Oak.
We regret that conditions were
such as to prevent larger attend
snce, and hope that at future day
Mr.. Bryan may be induced to pay
US another visit.

.CUNMEN EXPECT
HOLIDAY SPORT
Shooting Boxes on All the
Marshes Will Present
Animated Scenes Tonight

The ducks on all the marshes within
reach of this city had brief respite
last Sunday, as the alluring charm of
Christmas at home proved too strong
an attraction for the majority of
sportsmen. The boats and trains,
which are usually thronged with men
in shooting clothes, were nearly empty
last weekend.
Conditions will be different this week.
Many men will leave the city to-day
for their shooting boxes to escape the
din with which it is customary to usher
in each new year. Unless an unusual
amount of rain falls the shooting will
be excellent tomorrow, as birds are
found in large numbers and in every
direction.
The few men who went out last week
had excellent sport. Along the San
Pablo shore large bags of canvas
backs were secured. w. G. Hoffman
and Harry Trader shot near San Pablo
with good results.
Edgar Forster and Billy Schendel
were on the Petaluma marsh and had
a joint bag of thirty-one birds. These
included cans, spoonies and teal.
Alex Martin secured limit bag on a
preserve at Schellville on the Sonoma
marsh.
Julius Bruins, NJ J. Hynes. w. J.
Hynes. Jack Karney, w. ]. Hopkins
and Charlie Breitenstein had a salts
factory shoot at Suisun. The joint bag
of $50 birds was made up Of cans, mall
lard and sprig.
Henry Jansen and Mr.. Gregory shot
near Midshipman and Reclamation
and had good days sport.
Pete McRae and Ed Schultz &C.
cured limit bags on Joyce Island.
They could have killed twice as many
birds, as they worked we'll for the
guns. Teal were found in large num-
bers.
Phil Bekeert will head delegation
of Family Club members, who will
spend the holidays quietly at their

Club the poloists have been enjoying
some exciting sport for weeks past, and
on every occasion a large gallery has
witnessed the work Of the dashing
horsemen. The class Of the ponies is
steadily increasing, so that the play is
as fast as can be seen on any field. The
ranks Of the players have been in
creased by the addition of ]. o. Tobin
and Cyril Tobin and by the reaPpear-
ance in the saddle of Charley Dunphy.
The latter plays a wonderful game in
the number one position. The one re-
gret Of his friends last season was the
fact that illness prevented his playing
against Captain Haig, the famous Eng
lish expert. Dunphy's forte is in riding
off an opponent, and If he tried these
tantalizing tactics on the herculean cap
tain the latter's picturesque vocabulary
would have been taxed to the utmost.
The homecoming of Francis J. Caro-
Ian, master Of Crossways, is expected
10 put renewed life into all the sports
OF the field at Burlingame. During his
sojourn in the East he met many prom
that some of them will come West TO
test the skill of the Western horsemen.
The Burlingame men still hope to have
a representative English team visit
this coast.
That the California ponies are highly
appreciated is shown by the prices re-
ceived for them. T. A. Driscoll sold a
pony recently for s25O0. 1t viii be used
in England. Walter McCreery is said
TO have refused an offer of $4,000 for a
California bred pony he took to Eng
land.
These prices indicate what an expen-
sive pastime polo is. One player says
each game he has played for many
years has cost him more than $50. AS
sometimes three games are played in
one week the aggregate expense is
large. The average number Of ponies In
the string Of a player is eight. and
they never miss a meal.
The sportsmen who support the Call
fornia Polo and Pony Racing Associa-
tion seem in a fair way to develop the
interesting sport Of pony racing to a
high standard. The thoroughbred
breeding establishments are being ran
sacked for ill-nourished thoroughbreds
which come under the standard Of four
teen hands three inches In height. Ten
new ponies Will start at the next meet
ing OF the association.

No Games for Championship
of Association Football
League During Holidays

No matches will be played for the
championship of the California Asso-
citation Football League either to-mor-
row or on Monday. Though no matches
were arranged either for the Christmas
or the New Year holidays by the dele
gates who made up the championship
schedule, it was thought the opportun-
ity might be seized to play off some of
the matches that have been postponed,
as, for example, the game between the
Occidentals and Oakland Hornets that
was set down for November 20; the
game between the Occidentals and the
Vampires and that between the Eagles
and the Oakland Hornets, both post
poned from November 27. Though the
suggestion was made by the secretary
of the league. the captains of the teams
are not willing to take the chance of
some Of their strong players absence
during the holidays.
Some practice games between league
and other teams will, however, be
played during the holidays. The Vam-
pires will play friendly match against
the Pickwicks on the ground at Web
ster street, Alameda, tomorrow. James
Frew will referee and the players will
