Glacier Point.

The point OF greatest interest in al
probability, is Glacier Point. There are
two ways of reaching Glacier Point-the
long trail and the short trail. The best
way is to 60 by the long trail and re
turn the other way. And by all means
take a mule. Many people leave each
morning, accompanied by a guide, who
looks after the animals and notes all
points Of interest. Vehicles take tourists
to the Happy Isles, where mules are
mounted and the journey begins. Pho
tographers are On hand before the start,
where those who 60 are lined upin groups
to have their pictures taken on mules.
OF course almost every one wants a
picture under the peculiar conditions,
and as business is business the phOtog-
raphers sell many pictures.
The ride to the point is IL miles. Per
haps in no other II miles in the world is
more grandeur, sublimity and beauty
presented than in the ride from the
Happy Isles to Glacier Point. The trail

proper being left at the Isles. The Merced
changes it's aspect at this point, and as
long as it is followed it is a foeming,
raging torrent. 1t leaps over boulders,
churns through assures, and amid noise
and bluster it passes on to the peaceful
valley below. Every foot OF the way is
full of interest. We begin to realize that
we are climbing up. The caravan OF
muIeteers are almost as boisterous as the
boisterous stream they are following. 1t
finds vent in yells OF delight, in exclama-
tions OF ''Iook at this" or "look at that"
The guide does not hurry. He will assist
any time in taking a snap shot with
camera or make no protest if you stop

ELkS BALL TEAM
 IN GREAT FORM

Turn about is fair play. Yesterday the Elks team went in for revenge against Madigan's Wonders, slipping over a 13-4 victory on the Wonders. It was the opposite last Monday, the Elks losing 7-6.
 The appearance of Elm Donnelly be- Eind the bat for the Antlers made a DE difference in the team work of the club. Elm spilled the pepper box all over the field, his teammates falling in line with him. Just to show the overflow of the fiery stuff, Elm walk ed in the second inning. stole second, third and home before the pitcher de- l1vered a ball. It was all done while the opposing heaver was posing to put one over the plate. Elm made each 6ase by great slide The big hit ting of the afternoon fell to the lot of Fritz Musante. who poled out two three baggers.
 Joe Flint started the heaving for the Elks. going for three innings, holding the wonders hitless. He was taken out after the third by Manager Me Nell to have him in good shape for the big game Monday. Flint has not been day he showed that he had the stuff which makes pitchers. Bob Nichols finished the rest of the game doing mighty well, letting up in the final inning, when he allowed two Wonders to score. The Elks made one change during the game. Steve Boucher and W1ll Bentley alternating at second base. Capt. OLeary will have to think a big bit before Monday to make a selection between the two, as both of them are there

CY YOUNG SETS MARK
 FOR RISING YOUNGSTERS

Here is an editorial on Cy Young, the veteran pitcher taken from the Cleveland Leader:
 Once more "Cy" Young becomes a figure worthy of more than a passing glance. Yesterday he not only pitch ed winning ball game but he set a mark which the youngsters of the great American sport would agree is excellent.
 The veteran grew more and more effective as he went along. He had not only held the enemy in hand for the regulation nine innings but added three for good measure. And at the not have continued to pitch great ball for many innings more.
 This is the fruit of natural strength and soundness aided and preserved and made efficient by sensible living and good habits. It is the result of combining physical and mental qua1- ities of an altogether unusual type, in the degree that Denton T. Young pos- sesses them.
 Make no mistake about the value of the object lesson which "Old Cy'' Young teaches. It has more effect up- on thousands of lusty young fellows who might otherwise squander. their vitality and wreck their lives, than many an eloquent sermon. All Young America knows "Cy" Young, and mill lions of boys have noted the way that his temperance and quiet living and good sense fit in with the records he is making, in his forties, in a sport which is ordinarily believed to be re- served for athletes between eighteen and thirty-f1ve, or whereabouts.
 "Cy" Young is one of the most en- inent anti-Oslerites of the day and he is also moral force of no little dis tinctiOn

Jeffries Training Camp, Moana Springs, Reno, June 25.-Lost, stray ed or stolen; one grouch, the property same
 This advertisement did not appear in the Reno newspaper today but Jim Corbett is thinking of inserting it. If there was ever a man in good humor it is Jim Jeffries and his trainers are jubliant. But with all their jubila- tion they are distraught lest the big fellows grouch re-appear. They think his present good humor is too good to keep.
 Jeffries is full of pranks and his training is even more energetic than it was at Rowardennan. Instead of acting as a detriment the high altitude and rarified air of the mountains seem to have done Jeff world of good. His heart and lungs are in fine shape and his trainers and rubbers have not been afraid one whit.
 Jeffries yesterday boxed 10 rounds with Bob Armstrong and kept the ne- gro on the defense all the time. Then he took on Brother Jack for three rounds. In the last round Jeffries let down his guard and made Jack beat him in the face with all his strength. Jack is bigger than Jim and almost as husky but his blows seemed to have no effect. Jim Corbett has stomach trouble as a result of the change in climate and may not be able to don the gloves with Jeffries for several days.
 Jeffries went fishing today in the Truckee river where mountain trout are said to be so thick the fishermen have to beat them off the banks with baseball bats before casting. The big fellow also did some hard work.
 Jeffries refused to discuss the state ment by Billy Muldoon that he is working too hard and that he would turn stale before the day of the fight. Muldoon declared he thought Jeffries was perfectly "fit" now and that any more training would retard him. Jeff fries has always been his own train CT and does not take kindly to advise from any one. He says he knows ex-

actly what he is doing and that he in- tends to follow out his own program from now until he enters the ring with Johnson.
 By Tip Wright)
 Johnson's Training Quarters, Kicks Resort, Near Reno, June 25.-''This high altitude Is certainly to my lik- ing and I will be just as fit on July 4 as I would have been in Frisco" gro is pleased over the reception ac- corded him yesterday and says he is sure he will be given fair treatment if he whips Jeffries.
 Johnson today for the first time made public the contents of the legal agreement he signed with George Lit tie who, by the way, is not to be ment provides that Johnson is to pay Little s16,500 after the fight with Jeff fries in lieu of all claims. Little agree ing to stop molesting Johnson until after July 4 and then to go into court and try to recover some diamond sum- bursts and other valuables which he claims are in Johnson's possession.
 Tom Flanagan is continuing to act as Johnson's temporary manager, but will relinquish that title after July 4 when he will go to Canada to attend to his own business affairs.
 Johnson today did some road work and returned with the statement that the high altitude had not affected his breathing in the slightest degree. Doc tors Morrison and Asher who have been selected as the physicians to ex- anime the fighters under the Nevada state law declared today the high altitude would not have any effect on the perfectly trained men, especially if they were allowed week to get aclimated.
 Tex Rickard is making capital out of personal telegram he received last night from Governor Dfckerson in which the chief executive said:
 "Prize-fghting is licensed under the laws of this state. My duties are to enforce the laws not to make them. There will be no interference from the governors office if the require ments of the law are complied with. This decision is irrevocable. You may use this telegram as you SC fit"

Belden singled and stole second Cough smashed out a clean double, scoring Belden, and he came home on a wild pitch. Sherwood famed.
 Corcoran and Waller both pulled out of some deep holes, but the score remained unchanged until the ninth inning. It was New Haven's game and all over but the shouting. At least we all thought so. But the ninth, that terrible ninth. Waller was the frst man to bat, and he hit to Peck" The young shortstop fumbied and fumed and at last fell down. Then Hall singled. Eley singled; Nallin nailed out a three bagger scoring Waller, Hall and Hey and Corcoran snaked out and Bugs" Reisigl was put in the box. Bugs" walked Crooks and he stole second. Snyder, who replaced Hi Ladd, went out Stis to Bunyan. Stowe famed. Miller walked. Then the signal was given for the squeeze play. Nallin started for home. As he did Lavery smashed the ball straight over second base and everyone scored. Umpire Watts called Miller out for not touch ing third base and the score was to in Bridgeport's favor. The score:

 Manager McCann has the wires working to land seasoned catcher. He had the chance to grab Eddie Bridges, the former Northampton backstop, who was with Montreal, but did not consider that he needed him. The departure of Kocher and the in- condition of McAuley came together just at the wrong time. When Mc- Cam wired for Bridges he was in- formed that a deal had been closed whereby Eddie went to Utica of the New York state league.
 NcCann was left in a fix yesterday and had to hustle about town for an amteur catcher. Bill Kerr of the West End was the first reference. but Bill is a so-called outlaw.

"he held Waller up in fine form, and barring few misplays which could be expected from any amateur he went along quite we'll" Lavery cracked out two hits out of two times up. His last a two bagger came in the ninth with Crooks and Miller on the bases Crooks scored but Miller in his excitement to count was called out for not touching third base.
 "Bugs" Reisigl purposely walked Crooks and Miller in the ninth in ming to work Lavery, but the novice wac too sly for him.
