PROUD OF FREMONT COUN- -
TVS FRUIT EXHIBIT

s. H. Atwater, who was a visitor
at the State fair at Pueblo on Thurs
day, says he inspected the horticul-
tural section while there and was
greatly surprised, as well as gratified.
to observe that Fremont county had
a splendid exhibit of fruits; fully the
equal in quality and almost in guam
tity. to the showing made by the couu-
ties of the western slope. Fremont
county has. for 4 long time been a
big factor in the horticultural division
of the State fair and is hardly less
conspicuous this year than usual. Mr..
Atwater says many blue ribbons will
come to Canon City fruit growers as
a result of their competition at Pueblo.

A PRACTICAL JOKE.
In Which a Cellist, a Singer, Spins
ter and Sleeping Car Figure.

a story is going the rounds on Ern-
est Gamble, formerly basso with Mile.
Verlet of the Opera Comique. The
company left Louisville one night
bound for Memphis. Mr.. Thrane, the
cellest of the party. was asleep in his
berth and Mr.. Gamble was preparing
for bed just opposite. A prim, pre-
else old maid was fussing about be-
hind the curtains of the berth next to
Mr.. Thrane. After a time the old
maid clothed in a wrapper emerged
from her berth and went down the
dimly lighted aisle to the ladies' dress
ing room. Before going, however, she
pinned a piece of pink ribbon on the
curtains of her berth so that she
would make no mistake when she re-
turned. When the good woman dis
appeared Mr.. Gamble quickly hoped
out and removed the pink ribbon from
ned and placed it on the neighboring
curtain, which hung from the poles
of Mr.. Thrane's berth.
He then hastened to bed and anx-
iously awaited Developments.
In a short time the spinster lady re-
turned. and without ado pulled back
the curtains Of Mr. Thrane's berth and
jumped in. She landed squarely On
him and he, being Joker himself and
being used to Jokes. thought 1omobody
had thrown something at him, and h0
set up yell that brought heads from
every curtain of upper and lower
berths the length of the car.
II was twenty minutes before the be-
wildered lady ceased roasting" Mr.
Thrane for being in her berth. WheA
conductor and porter finally convinced
her that the mistake was hers, she
apologized for twenty more minutes-
Mr. Gamble was the only one who
slept through 1t all undisturbed.

Ewing have begun the war on the
outlaw league he wants to be in
position to carry out plans for raiding
the outlaw clubs for players to be
placed with the Venice club. Hen
knows the local fans will expect the
Venice club to be strong aggregation
and will not be satisfied with a tall
end proposition.
There are many crackerjack players
in the outlaw league who are good
enough to be in the major leagues and
the outlaw organization, therefore, Of
fers a good field for the raiders In
getting classy players to make up the
lineups for the Venice and Sacramento
clubs. Not only that, but it also is
true that a raid made under these cir
cumstances would accomplish the de-
sired end in putting the troublesome
outlaw league out of business.
There is little room for doubt that
the Venice and Sacramento franchises
will be awarded within the next fort
night and the management of these
clubs will be aided by Berry and other
Coast league directors in getting all,
the good players needed to make both
clubs real factors in the 1903 pennant'
chase. In view of these facts the fans
have much. justification in their hopes
which will solve the vexatious problem
for continuous baseball next season,
of a most unsatisfactory playing sched
ule, which cannot be remed1ed as long
as the Coast league is four-club or
ganizatiOn.

MURPHY MAY. REFUSE
MATCH WITH HANLON
San Francisco Lightweight Prefers to
Fight Young Otto, the Eastern
Crack, Before Jeffries'
Vernon Club

There is good reason to believe that
Johnny Murphy, the crack San Fran
cisco lightweight, will not run out on
his match with Young Otto, which
Jeffries has crded for August 4, al
though dispatches from him are to the
effect that he had signed up to fight
Eddie Hanlon in San Francisco pre-
vious to receiving notice of the match
before the local club.
Murphy came to Los Angeles espe-
cially to get on before Jeffries' club
and was told that he probably would
be matched with Young Otto. He re-
turned to Frisco before the match was
closed and signed up to fight Hanlon.
Baron Long received a telegram from
him last evening in which he asked
that the match be set for a. later day,
as he does not want to break his con-
tract with the Frisco management and
at the same time does not want to
lose such a good match as that with
Young Otto appears to be.
This is a first class attraction, and
local fans are hoping that it goes
through without a hitch. Murphy re-
Gently turned professional and is of the
clever, hard-hitting class of young
boxers that make instantaneous hits
with fans wherever they fight He has
brilliant record in the ring and his
future appears exceedingly bright. He
comes from the same school that turned
out Hanlon. Britt and Baker, and few
counterfeits ever graduated from that
institution.
Young Otto is one of the classiest
lightweights the east ever turned out.
He has fought himself to the top of
the ladder, where he now is recognized
as high-class fighter with excellent
promise of developing championship
caliber. He Is a knockout fighter, and
this feature makes him great card.
This is his first trip to the coast and
he is ready to meet all corners, with a
possibility that he will draw the win
ner of the McFarland-Wel scrap
Labor day. Baron Long thinks so we'll
of him that he will push him right to
the front and give him a chance to go
as far as he can make good.
The news of the Murphy-Hanlon
match clouds the Murphy-Otto match
with much uncertainty but Long ex-
poets a definite reply from Murphy in
day or two and confidently expects
that it will be of favorable nature.

Upton CUP WINNER
MAY NOT GET TROPHY
Protest, Based on Unfair Rating as to
Measurements, Filed by Owner
Of Yacht Which Finished
Second

NEW YORK, July 9.-Pending the
decision of the regatta committee of
the Brooklyn Yacht club, regarding a
protest which was filed yesterday
against Frederick Thompson's schooner
yacht Shamrock, the apparent winner
of the Upton cup for the ocean race to
Cape May and back, the trophy will
remain in the custody of the club.
There have been rumors of protests
ever since the Shamrock finished well
in the lead, but it was not until late
yesterday that the formal protest in
writing was handed to Chairman Ed
son b. Schock of the committee. The
committee refused to divulge the name
of the protestor or its nature, but It
was learned that the complaint has
been made by Stuyvesant Wainwright,
owner of the Mimoda Ill, which fn-
ished second, 2 hours 16 minutes and
49 seconds behind the Shamrock, ac-
cording to the allowances based upon
measurements now in hand. Sham
rocks rating has been the subject of
considerable comment the past week
and the protest is lodged on the basis
of erroneous measurement.
Before the protest was filed Mr..
Thompson cabled the news Of his vic
tory to Sir Thomas Upton as follows:
''Sir Thomas Upton, 10 City Road,
London: I have the only Shamrock
than can win, but, Barr sailed her. Do
your congratulations go with the cup?
FREDERICK THOMPSON"
His reply was received:
Frederick Thompson: Heartiest con-
on victory of your Sham
rock Regard this as an encouraging
omen for my next challenger, particu-
larly as my present Shamrock is shap-
ing we'll and pointing to success.

two .irsts Tuesday In Fern l. in the
first race and The Sultan in the fifth
race. He is making remarkable strides
for 16-year-old lad, and with little
more coaching will be one of the best
riders that ever was turned out in Cal
ifornia. Page is a consistent rider, too,
and when he faces the barrier he al
ways makes it point to take the rail
and keep his mount well in the lead,
when vigorous riding will turn the
trick. This was the third time that
Page has crossed the tape on a winner
in the Walhauser colors, once at Oak
land and twice at Seattle. He weighs
only 80 porads. While Walhauser's
stable was quartered at Santa Anita

YACHTING GOSSIP

Alexander J. Mitchell has his Mis-
chief 1 in good trim again. Since her
complete renewal at the Fulton yards
at San Pedro she is looking very gay,
having new rigging, new canvas on her
decks and the gait of 2-year-old.
Brundage has been putting Haines
w Reeds Emma r in good shape and
also has painted NJ. Abbott's Clara L,
which has received new awning from
the Lewey lofts, and Fellows has sup
piled davits to swing the dinghey into
rest on the center of the cabin top.
Fellows will reduce the size of the pro-
peller of the Emma r and expects to
Increase the speed of that beautiful
craft.
A contract goes with the Fulton de-
sign for the Venus Wasp class that
If the craft does not beat the Venus
there will be no charge. This concep-
tion is to be 35 feet over all, water line
beam feet, extreme beam feet 6
inches, draught feet and to carry
5000 pounds of lead on the fin.
The Fulton Marine Construction COM
pany is building a sailing vessel for r.
P. Weston, which is intended to beat
Francis Hays Arrow. This craft has
complete centerboard and her sails
will be of the same design. They will
be made at LeWey'S lo1tS.
In preparation for the San Diego
races for the Upton challenge cup, the
Columbine has been put on the ways
to be overhauled. The owner says she
will not enter the local races because
the measurement rule penalizes her be-
yond the hope of victory.
Mr.. Custom is having the Jeptick con-
verted into an open launch at the Full
ton yards, Terminal Island. A pretty
launch may yet be made out of the
grotesque freak.
Fellows almost has finished the
lengthening of the Camiguin for Arthur
Mason. The boat now measures 81 feet
over ALL To make her 21 feet longer
she was cut in halves, which were
separated twelve feet, and then a new
center section was built in. This boat
has now beautiful lines. With triple
propellors and suitable engines this
boat will be a distinct addition to the
rapidly increasing fleet of power boats
at San Pedro.
