FOUR NIGHTS FISTIC
FUN FOR FIGHT FANS

Four nights of good boxing enter
tainment is now in prospect, as Jack
Scully, the popular promoter, has an
nounced Friday, Saturday, Monday,
and Tuesday as the days on which he
will hold bouts at independence Hall,
on South King street. He is now ne
gotiating with some of the local box
ers, and will have a drawing crowd
when the time comes. He has the
big men of the Fleet signed, through
Lieutenant Weaver, and has enough
material TO keep the game going for
a while.
Most valuable among the men who
are in the local ring is Young Mel
son, the man who has gone down be-
fore but one of the locals-and that
when he gave away weight. 1t will
be recalled that, he went ten rounds
to draw here recently with the
rangey Rafferty, of the Alabama,
though the latter man claimed the
lightweight championship among I'm
Gle Sans jack-tars.
Whether Jack will have Nelson in
the ring is not announced.

SINCLAIR thinks
HAWAII Good ONE
Writes Re Yacht Race;
Lightened Ballast
Of Lurline

A private letter to c. w. Macfar-
lane from Captain Sinclair, owner Of
the yacht Lurline, contains some
items OF interest in connection with
the Trans-P Pacific Yacht Race now in
progress.
Captain Sinclair took about ten
tons of ballast out of the Lurline, in
order to tighten the yacht and take
advantage of the handicap, lessening
the displacement of the racing ma
chine.
In speaking of the Hawaii. he
thinks she is a dangerous boat as a
competitor, and ought to make good
showing.
I'm case the Hawaii wins" he
says, 81 shall know ] have been in a
yacht race. May the best yacht
win!"
Captain Macfarlane's prophecy Is
to look for the Lurline between 10
and IL days out, with the Lady Maud
second, the Hawaii third. and the
Gwendolyn ii last.

TRACK Meet ENTRIES
CLOSE this EVENING
Fewer Men Sign Than
Expeeted---Track
Repaired

At 8 O'Clock this evening entries for
the field meet which Is to be held Sat.
urday afternoon at Boys Field close.
The number of those signifying their
intention to go in, is so far small, but
it is hoped that a good number will
sign up at the last minute.
Entry blanks are securable at the
Y. M. c. A., from DR.. L. II. Hand, of
the committee in charge, all this
week. The entries are open to any
amateur In the city, and to any of the
men of the Fleet. OF course, It is not
now possible to determine how many
Of these latter will enter when the
ships are here, but Lieutenant, Weav.
er, who has charge of the sports with
tn Fleet, has notified the chairman of
the subcommittee on field meet that
some of the men will go in.
A number of those who have been
training at the Boys Field for this
event is rather small, and does not in.
clude nearly all of the good men who
are really available. For instance.
neither Mackenzie nor En- Sue has
worked out, though they are the fast.
est of the local men In the sprint
races. They are playing baseball, and
the former, at least, will be out with
the Kams on the day of the meet.
In fact, there Is little doubt tina,
baseball and these field sports clash
of the very talented men are hitting
the horsehide.
tSill, there are some talented per.
formers who have been working out
at Boys Field. Among these is Beck.
lert, the track captain, who is getting
into great shape for his pet event, the
half mile run.
The events where the locals can be
expected to be weak are the hurdles,
jumps, and probably the mile, as time
for this distance has always been slow
here.
The track, as most of the runners
are glad to know, is being gotten into
good condition. The workmen are
now out, putting on paw cinders, roll
ing 1t, and evening up the rough
places. Soft spots will be elllaiaa.ed,
and the hardest places worked up. All
this ought to tend to make some fast
records possible. However, the shape
of the track, with wide turns. not
banked, and short stretches, wars
against speed for any distance in
which one has to do any of the sprint
ing on turn.
| At all events, II Is felt that the field
meet ought to be made a success II
possible, considering the nice prizes
up, and the interest which is some.
times displayed in track sports in this
city.

ccived up to date by DIR. Hand con-

fair sized power boat was noticed
going down the harbor day or two ago
flying three fags on it's solitary spar. The
top one was club burgee, the second q
commodore's flag and the lowest an owners
private signal. The owner OF the yacht
wished to tell every one that his yacht
was enrolled in q club Of which he was
commodore and then displayed his own
signal.
Being a flag officer his private signal
was needless, as tho signal Of flag rank
takes the place Of a private signal. The
club bur9ee and the oommodore's flag
or private signal should never be flown
on the same hoist and 1t would have been
much better II the owner Of that yacht
had had small staff placed at the highest
point on the yacht and flown his club
burgee at the staf forward and his oom-
modore's flag ON the second spar.
Each yacht club has its own flag, called
q burgee All yachts enrolled in the feet
OF any club can fly its burgee and flying
the burgee and owners private signal
indicates that the yacht Is In commission.
Mistakes are not often made on schooner
yachts with two or more masts. The
club burgee Is flown from the fore truck
and the private signal from the main truck.
When at anchor the American yacht ensign
is displayed from a staff at the stern and
when under. way 1t is flown from the main
peak on two masted vessels and from the
mizzen peak on three masted vessels.
On a sloop, ketch or yawl things are
different. The owner flies his private
signal at the main truck when under way,
but when at anchor this signal is changed
for the club burgee. This, however, does
not apply to flag officers. They fly their
official flag at all times, night and day.
On all large yachts the mate usually at
tends to the duties OF setting flags. He Ia
usually man who has learned the signals
well and he is aided by the quartermasters,
who hoist the signals he tells them to. On
small yachts the owner will have to look
after these details himself, but II he has
an Intelligent sailor on board he can soon
instruct him what TO hoist and what 10 take
down.
Every yacht belonging to an American
oauneh can ny tne American yacht ensign.
This has thirteen stripes, alternating white
and red. with blue field containing foul
anchor circled by thirteen stars. This
flag was approved by the Secretary Of the
Navy In 1s4s. Every yacht when at anchor
should display this ensign at tho taifrail
Flagstaff. When under way schooner or
sloop rigged yacht will display 1t at the
main peak and three masted vessel will fly
1t from the mizzen peak. yawl rugged
