In Four Compartments II Carries
Water to Last "a Journey.
The stomach of camel il divided
Into no less than four compartments,
and the wallis OF one of those are
lined with large cells, every one of
which can be opened and closed at
will by means Of powerful muscles.
Now, when Il camel drinks it drinks
very great deal Indeed II goes
drinking on for such very long time
that really you would think that II
never meant to leave off. But the fact
is that ii IL not only satisfying its
thirst but il filling up its clstern as
well one after another the cells In
Its sipn ach are filed with water and
as soon as each IN quite full II IL tight
ly closed Then when the animal be-
comes thirsty few hours Inter all
TINT II has to do Is to open one of the
cells and allow the water to flow out
Next day II opens one or two more
cells, and SO 1t goes on dry after day
until the whole supply IL exhausted.
In this curious way II camel can live
five or even six days without drinking
at all and so Is able to travel quite
easily through the desert, where the
wells are often hundreds of miles
apart

CROWDS CHEER
OLD CHAMPION.
Give Greyhound Pocatelli
a Hearty Reception When
He Appears OH the Field

That the public dearly loves a cham
pion was demonstrated last Sunday at
Union Coursing Park Pocatelli, the
great greyhound. which has been in re-
tirement for several months, was sent
out as relief dog during one of the
trials to get a little running The spec
tators recognized the handsome hound
at once and cheered him as he showed
all his old time cleverness and much of
his former speed.
The up-country greyhound is entered
in the stake to be run tomorrow. He
meets Forest Fire in his first course,
which he should win handily. After
that the competition will grow warmer
as each succeeding round is run. and it
will need all his former speed to land
him the ultimate winner.
p. Doyle has decided to retire Lib
orator, which coursing men have called
the iron dog" from the field. He will
be placed in the stud and much is ex-
pected of him there. Liberator is by
Fear Not-Lady Thorndyke, and has
been noted for his cleverness and for
his great stamina, coupled with aver
age speed. He won many stakes and
has seldom been outside the money.
Week after week he has been in the
thick Of the competition and has al
ways rendered good account of him
self.
A match race and an open stake will
make I'D to-morrow's card at Union
Park. Humboldt and Carlow Boy met
last week in the deciding course of a
stake and a close race resulted. The
match was then decided upon. The
likely winners look to be:
Match race-Humboldt to beat Carlow Boy.

FIELD TRIALS
ARE PROMISING
Many Sportsmen Will Go to
Bakersfield to See the
Hunting Dogs in Action

Everything is in readiness for the
twenty y-second annual meet of the Pa
cific Coast Field Trials Club, which
will open on the Haggin and Tevis
property nearA Bakersfield on Monday.
The handlers of the high class settlers
and pointers entered for the trials re-
port the conditions as good. The rain
came at an opportune time, one inch
falling last Friday and helping matters
greatly.
Many of the well known sportsmen
who enjoy seeing the work in the field
of these intelligent dogs, will leave for
the scene to-day. This will give them
an opportunity for shoot tomorrow
en- quail or ducks. Those who cannot
get away to-day will go down to-mor-
row morning, arriving in time to wit
ness the draw.
H. W. Keller, the Santa Monica
sportsman, will have several represen-
tatives in the trials. One of his favor
ties will be Sombro, which will be han
died by w. B. Coutts in the all-age
stake. She finished third in the MEM
bers' stake last year and divided third
with Keepsake. in the derby. She was
bred by w. w. Van Arsdale and is
by Llewellin Drake-Shadow.
She was sent East last year, but like
all California a-bred field dogs she was
not familiar with prairie chickens and
did not do we'll. The California dogs
are disciplined for hunting barn-yard
fowl and they associate the prairie
chickens for these.
The Eastern Field Trials Club is the
only organization of this character
having been organized some two years
in advance of it.

The shooting on the Empire Gun Club
preserve this season has been the best
in the history of the club, English
snipe, ducks and quail being plentiful
on the Monterey preserve. Considerable
annoyance has been caused recently by
poachers. and the club has decided to
no longer tolerate this nuisance. 1t has

all intruders. The keepers force will be
