SWIMMING AND DIVING A Very Interesting Exhibition at the Sutro Baths Yes- terday. THE OCEAN BEACH CROWDED. Herr Scheel Led the Park Band—A Runaway Horse Lassoed In Time. \ The bulk of the people who were on pleasure bent yesterday seemed to select the ocean beach as a place of recreation, and the trains bound beyond Lands End were crowded until late in the afternoon. The trains south of the park were also crowded with people bound to the ocean side. The beach is lined with promenaders and here and there could be seen crowds of merry youngsters shoeless and stocking- less, boys with their pantaloons rollea up above their knees, and girls holding up their clothes in their hands, all wading in the surf. Those who tired of roaming on the ocean sands went into the Sutro Baths to witness the swimming exhibition given by members of the Pacific Swimming Club, assisted by members of the Olympic Club swimming annex and the Dolphin Swim- ming and Boating Club. The exhibition was witnessed by at least 5000 people. There were diving contests, racing, tub racing, burlesque boxing on a float, during which the contestants, angry at the decision of the referee, pitched him into the water; also log and tub racing, high diving, relay racing and skiff and canoe races, but no time was taken as none of the races were for records. Some por- tions of the programme were very amus- ing and the exhibition as a whole demon- strated that San Francisco has many ex- cellent swimmers. Some of the swimmers who wore the uniform of the Dolphin Club wore the thinnest of thin swimming suits that were cut very close top and bot- tom and when damp clung tighter than the costumes worn by the bronze statues. The Dolphins for the sake of decency should in future exhibitions appear in bathing dress that is not quite so clinging. An amusing number was a water-comet solo, "Moonlight fcjonate," (Beethoven) by Mat »Gay. The performer holding his mouth close to the water hummed the air and produced sounds that were similar to those of a new beginner on the corYiet. The following is the programme that was presented: Plain Giving by members of the Olympic, Dolphin and Pacific Swimming clubs—Professor H. L.

Schmidt, Louis Sctaroeder, George Schroeder, H. de Chesne and T. Scull}-. The club-swinging and boxing between the bantams took place on the musicians' platform. The boxing was in dead earnest and in the third round, Smith lost a little blood. The exhibition was under the di- rection of George S. McCombs. There were many people in the park, but not so many as usual. In spite of all the trouble he has had Herr Scheel led the band. During the afternoon a horse in charge of Henry Peterson, broke away from a cart near the children's play-ground and made for the main drive. He was going at a lively gait when Mounted Officer J. H. Kavanagh skilfully threw his lariat over him and brought him up with a round turn, an act which greatly enlivened the many on the drive and won for the officer much commendation. In his mad run the horse knocked down two children, but did not hurt either. A man driving down the speed-track miscalculated his distance, ran against one of the fence posts, was thrown out but escaped injury. __ RUNNING DOWN HARES. Some Exciting Contests . Among the Crack Dogs Interest Crowds at the Coursing Parks. . A large crowd gathered at Kerrigan's coursing park yesterday to witness the eighteen-dog stake under the auspices of the Oakland Coursing Club. Ed Canavan was in the saddle and W. D.

The Emmet Club la Making Ready for Football and Athletics. The Emmet Football Club held a meet- ing at its clubrooms, and the secretary, T. J. Mylatte, having tendered his resigna- tion, Frank Creede was unanimously elected secretary. A communication was received from Captain Tobin of the Port Costa Club extending an invitation for a friendly contest to take place at their f rounds at Benicia on the Fourth of July, t was referred to a committee and will be promptly acted on. Captain Tobin is loud in the praise of the men of his club and is determined to give Captain Palmer and his mvincibles a hard tussle for supremacy, while Captain Palmer is more than san- guine of success, his club having been strengthened by the famous Tom Hughes of the old Emmets, who has just returned from Dublin, Ireland, after an absence of two years, bringing with him a brother who bad no superior as a football player in his native isle. The Emmets are busily engaged in an- swering communications from members of different clubs who will enter as competi- tors in the great list of games which will take place at their annual picnic at Schuetzen Park, San Rafael, on Sunday, June 30. The games will constitute run- ning, jumping, pole vaulting, weight throwing, also a tug of war between the Knights of the Red Branch Rifles and Emmets for $100 a side. The Emmets will sport their new uniforms in their contest with tne Port Costa Club. CYCLING RON TO NILES Annual Picnicof the California Associated Cycling Clubs. Five Hundred Wheelmen Attended. No Accidents to Mar the Sport. The annual joint run of the California Associated Cyling Clubs to Niles Canyon yesterday brought forth all the prominent club wheelmen from every city and town around the bay, and a conservative estimate placed the number at Niles at 500. Certainly there were more different makes of wheels, and more vari-colored sweaters with all sorts of emblems on them, than ever before assembled at any one place. The wheelmen from this City left on the 9a. m. creek route boat and rode from the foot of Broadway, Oakland, where they were joined by the Oakland riders. The San Jose clubs rode direct to Niles, and as they had a shorter distance to traverse, and a wise captain who started them early, they were the first at the park, and had dined before the main body arrived. Those San Jose- ans must have voracious appetites, or else the innkeeper failed to gauge the supply of edibles by the number and hunger of wheelmen, for when the big party got there it was evident there would not be halt enough to go around. But a hungry cyclist is the last man to despair in such a predicament, so those who could dined at Niles, and most of the others rode to Cen- terville, three miles away, where they were generously fed, whereupon they wheeled back toNiles again. -- After luncheon the riders all went up the canyon a short distance, where there is a swimming-pool, which soon looked like a struggling mass of undressed men, so many took advantage of the refreshing plunge. Half a thousand active wheelmen can make things pretty lively anywhere, and the woods re-echoed with their shouts and club cries. It was fully 3 o'clock before the start for hor was made, and many a pretty little rat •; was indulged in going back between the members of the rival clubs. There were a few collisions, falls and in- jured wheels in consequence, but nothing serious to mar the day's pleasure. It was very warm and dusty, but excepting be- tween Haywards and Niles the roads were excellent, and every one seemed to enjoy the ride. vW' rl : The following clubs,' members of the as- sociation, turned out in large numbers: Acme Club Wheelmen, Bay City Wheel- men. California Cycling Club, Crescent Road Club, Garden City Cyclers, Imperial Cycling Club, Olympic Club Wheelmen, Reliance Club Wheelmen, Royal Cycling Club, San Jose Road Club. ' All clubs not members of the association who desired to attend were cordially in- vited, and the followingavailed themselves of the opportunity: Eintracht Cycling Club, Golden Gate Cycling Club. Liberty Cycling Club, National Road Club, Outing Road -Club, Pacific Cycling Club, Sunset Cycling Club, San Francisco Road Club. Captain John F. Burk of the Californias had charge of the \u25a0 run and was ably as- sisted by the captains of all the other clubs. During the afternoon Louis Deloy of the Imperial Cycling Club of San Francisco had a narrow escape from drowning. He was in swimming with a party of wheel- men, when he was taken with cramps and sank to the bottom. Supposing he was swimming under water no notice was at first paid to him, but when the true cause of his disappearance was realized, C. T. Dodge, captain of the Bay City Wheelmen, who was also in bathing, dived to the bot- tom and brought Deloy ( to the surface. With considerable difficulty the was brought to shore, where It took almost ten minutes to revive him. GOOD BALL AT VALLEJO Olympics Defeat the Local - Team by Two to One. * The Vallejo baseball nine was van- quished at Trulls Park yesterday. It had defeated the Olympics the Sunday previ- ous, and yesterday the Pacifies con- quered them. This was the first time the Vallejos and Pacifies had played together, and it ; was a good game, with a score of 2 to 1, itbeing necessary to play ten innings to settle it one way or the other. The time was re- markably short, being not quite two hours. Both Cooney and Iburg pitched splendid ball. The game was won for the Pacifies by the batting of Smith and Kiley in the last inning. Each made a two- base hit, letting the lucky , man get home. A bril- liant double play by Kiley to Murphy then ruined the hopes of the Vallejos of tieing the score. Following is the score: PACIFICS.

New * Powder Pronounced Worthless— Good Scores at Shell Mound. V h The sharpshooters of the National Guard are indignant. They object to Lieutenant- Colonel Howland of the Seventh Infantry being allowed to shoot off his score at Los Angeles while they have to go to Sacra- mento to win their bars and medals. They object to paying their own expenses, and they make the same old protest against the cartridges supplied by Uncle Sam. Some of the best shots in San Fran- cisco said yesterday that the State scorer was welcome to mark them up ten misses, as they had no intention of competing if they had to shoot shells supplied by the State. In a letter to the Call on the subject, Fred C. Muller said : In the interest of the sharpshooters of the National Guard of California I desire to call your attention to general order No. 9, issued at Sacramento in May last. Itsets forth that all sharpshooters who have made a score of ninety or more will be "permitted" to finish their final string -at Sacramento, and further that they will he also "permitted" to pay their ex- penses to the capital, as | there is no available cash in the treasury to meet the necessary out- lay. ' > \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 ; '.' "•.>..•-;;..*-...y-'*.' ..: Now, if the Government cannot pay our ex- penses, why not, in all reason and fairness, al- low us to shoot our final scores on the same range at which we competed during our semi- annual target practice and thus save us time and money? We are supposed to be in Sacra- mento on the 28th inst. and that is collection day and many of us can ill afford to leave our business. I see that one Lieutenant-Colonel Howland is to be allowed to shoot off his score on the Seventh Infantry range, and I'd like to know why we can't have the same privilege. All we want is a fair field and no favor, and may the best shot win. The ammunition we are to shoot with is not good, and that is another thing that will keep the sharpshooters away from Sacramento. At the semi-annual shoot which took place at Shell Mound last week only about 98 out of 600 men who were called showed upon account of the cartridges served out. Everybody got ten shells, and of course the bulk of them were not used. Eighteen of us secured ten rounds each of the stuff, and went to Schuetzen Park to test it. The shells were filled in '91 and '92 and are not good now. It is an utter im- possibility to make an accurate shot with them and the lead in the bullets ruins our guns. We don't want to go to Sacramento and we won't use the Government ammunition. Among those who tested the Government shells at Schuetzen Park yesterday were H. R. Brown, T. J. Carroll, Captain W. Elliott, T. C. Muller. T. B. Moulton, H. Robinson and M.Reilly.- Before testing the State's ammunition the two latter fired I off a previously arranged match with the j following result: Robinson 6 45565546 4—47 I Reilly 4 45565454 5—46 Later in the day they had another con- j test with Uncle Sam's shells which re- ; sulted as follows: Robinson. 4 34264343 3—35 I Reilly 5 342 2 3442 4-33 With the Government powder H. R. Brown made 42 while his average is 47; Tom Carroll made 41 while his average is also 47 and the others were all in the same ! boat. "I am now trying to get the lead out of my gun," said Brown, "and 1 can tell you this I have fired my last round of Government ammunition. , They can have all the sharpshooting they want in Sacra- mento, but I will not be a contestant." ."The cartridges are not good," said T. J. | Carroll. "They are old stock manufac- tured in 1891 and 1892 and no marksman can do good work with them. The State pays 2 cents a shell for this truck and if they would allow us we would have them reloaded here. The stuff is terrible on the guns and wears a shooter out. Why, I would sooner fire fifty of my own shells than five of Uncle Sam's." "Judging by the samples I have used to- day, the Government shells are bad; very bad, ' said Captain Elliot, "and I for one am not going to risk my reputation as a marksman by attempting to shoot with them. I think we should be allowed to use the same shells we practiced with and that we should not be put to the expense of going to Sacramento." Captain F. B. Moulton said: "A sharp- shooter should be allowed to choose his own ammunition. Four-year-old shells that are the refuse of the East are not good and no man can make a good score with them." The Stanley medal was contested for at Schuetzen Park and won by Private Jones with a score of 46 out of a possible 50. The other scores were : Robinson 44, Dawson 43, Boyen 43, Carrigan 43, A. Smith 42, J. Mulhearn 43, M.Reilly 42. Jacobs 40, Fallon 41, Vanderbilt 41, Buston I41, Stolph 41, F. Mulhearn 40 and J. Patcher 40. The State shoot of Company D of the Fifth will take place in Schuetzen Park Wednesday and Thursday next. AT SHELL MOUND. A Large Party of Marksmen Spend the Day Firing at Siebe's Targets. A large throng of marksmen gathered at the Shell Mound range yesterday and, with a host of merrymakers who attended the picnic of the Scandinavian Society, the park had a very respectable red-letter . day generally. The dancing hall and the race course vied in popularity with the rifle and revolver ranges, and there was an abund- ance of amusement for everybody who hap- pened to be there. The committee in charge of the park pic- nic arrangements consisted of Chairman A. Hansen, Knute Lundstrum. H. Peter- sen, Charles Forsee, John Fosherg, Charles Armstrong, N. L. Sykes, Charles Ander- son, R. B. Nelson, A. C. Freese, A. Ander- son, Hans Gullixson, Alfred Johnson and M.P. Poulson. The monthly medal shoot of the Nord- deutscher Schuetzen Club was well at- tended and was fruitful of these target-hit- ting results: First class, J. Peters, 410 rings; second class, 0. Lemcke, 383 rings; third class, A. Hagedorn, 381. Mr. Hage- dorn has won this medal three times, and it has become his own property. The first best shot was 24 by E. Ipsen. The final best hit was made by A. "Hagedorn and was a 22- ring. At Shell Mound also the Columbia Pistol and Rifle Club was conspicuously in evi- dence. The absence of Strecker and Young was noted, but there were numerous crack center-finders on the range. The shooting was with the pistol at fifty . yards for the Blanding medal. , This is a long term com- petition and the scores are recorded monthly. At yesterday's affair J. E. Gor- man registered 94, S. Carr 94, C. M. Daiss 93, A. A. Dorrell 92,' L. O. Rodgers 89. Mrs. L. J. Crane scored 93 with a 22-caliber rifle.* This was for the medal offered the ladies' auxiliary. With the rifle Dr. L. O. Rodgers scored 83 on the standard American target. This will be credited to him in the yearly competition for the Blanding medal. * - - Company D of the First Infantry did a food bit of snooting at the Berkeley range, he scores were as follows: , ---. Sergeant H. Smith 42, \u25a0 Private Harvey 42, Corporal A. Apthorp 42, Sergeant G. Luce 40, Lieutenant W. Burdick 39, Lieutenant E. J. Blunkall 39, Corporal D.

JONES' COLORS LOWERED Kilgallon and Harlow. Defeat the Australian Hand- ball Champion. Return Match Arranged for Next Sunday for Two Hundred Dol- lars a Side. Denver and San Francisco met Australia in the San Francisco Handball Court yes- terday afternoon, and after . a brilliant struggle for supremacy Australia had to take a back seat. In other words, M. J. Kilgallon, champion of Denver, and J. Harlow, the coast champion, defeated J. Jones, the Australian champion, in a match, the best five games, for $100 a side. The match attracted an immense crowd, Every seat in the gallery was filled, and standing room was at a premium. It was the first time that Jones and Kilgallon had played against each other, and the event naturally aroused the liveliest interest among handball players. Betting was 2 to 1 against Jones. Harlow and Kilgallon started off by winning the first came in short order by a score of 21—6. They won the next "by 21—14 to the intense surprise of Jones' friends, and an intermission of 10 minutes was taken. In the third game Harlow and Kilgallon scored 17 aces to Jones 2, and it looked as if they would win in three straight. Jones began to toss in his old form and amid the greatest excitement won the game. The excitement was kept up in the fourth game by Jones again winning, and his friends became hopeful. He had, however, overtaxed his strength and his legs gave out. The - result was that Harlow and Kilgallon won the final and the match. . It was acknowledged by all that a pret- tier exhibition of handball had not been seen in this City. ;Kilgallon's* play was greatly admired and Harlow r played ' a grand game. Jones showed the v lack of training, but some of his brilliant efforts, particularly in the rallies, were loudly ap- plauded. Immediately after the match Ben Chap- man, a well-known sporting man from Australia and an ardent admirer of Jones, posted a forfeit of $25 t0 back Jones against the same team, the match to take place next Sunday for $200 a side. Kilgallon promptly covered. the deposit. As Jones ays his defeat to his poor condition lie will go into active training and promises to be in first-class condition next Sunday. The principal event at the Union court was a game between John Riordan and R. Lenihan and J. Feeney and Al Pennoyer, the two former winning by three games to two after an exciting contest. Another interesting game was between Terry Mc- Manus, heavy-weight champion, and Frank Curran and Frank Reynolds, cham- pion of Benicia, and D. Tobin, the two former winning. j .'i;^. i'/T, ',','< At the Occidental court the attraction was a game between John Purcell and. P. F. McCormick # against Ed Maloney and C. J. McGlynn, 'from enthusiasts. :It .was anybody game from start to finish, but Purcell and McCormick came out of the struggle victorious. On Wednesday night John Riordan and John Purcell will play R. Lenihan and M. J. Kilgallon, and the preliminary ,game will be between V. C. Tobin and C. J. McGlynn against Walter Jehu and G. Goggin.

' RACING FORSUGAR. Quick Sailing; Time Between This Port and Honolulu. Late reports \ from Honolulu tell of an interesting race between two "American \u25a0 ships ; from San \ Francisco. Both ships went to Honolulu to load with sugar for New J York, but ' as there was ; only sugar enough for one cargo, which was to go to the first arrival, the race developed into a clearly defined (business proposition. 1 Not to win the race meant a "layoff" in Hono- lulu for something "over a month. \u25a0• The Tillie E. Starbuck left here on May 23 and the Manuel Llaguna about thirty- six hours '• later. : . The -Tillie , E. Starbuck arrived at Honolulu on June 4, making the trip in eleven days and sixteen hours, beat- ing '\u25a0 the Manuel Llaguna by exactly four hours, the time of the latter being eleven days and twenty hours. TRAVELMISMANAGEMENT Overloading and Bad Loading as the Rule in the Pacific Mail Company. HOW CABIN PASSENGERS FARE. Lumber and Coal-Oil Laden Boats That Roll Dangerously in ; * Calm Seas. 4 tUV. Reckless overloading and daneerous bad' loading of the Pacific Mail steamers proves not to be the exception, but the rule, and almost everybody, except the company's officials, who have been fortu- nate to escape disaster on those vessels, appear to have testimony not agreeable to Mr. Huntington and - Mr. Scberwin. Dr. L. R. Wagoner, a dentist of Seattle, who arrived on the City of Sydney Saturday, sailed from San Francisco for Central America on the San Juan last February. He said: The San Juan was so crowded with freight and so topheavy that she ' rolled from side to side even in the mildest sea. She also had a bad list to one side. :Abaft of the houses is alarge space extending to the stern and that was I packed with lumber live or six feet high. The lumber extended well along the railingof the ship, leaving only small passage-ways next to the deckhouses on each side. Wnen the lumber gave out they Viled 500 cases of coal oil along the rails well forward of the nouses. '.The forecastle of the vessel was filled with ' an assorted cargo of freight, among which were several heavy pieces of machinery. f . -•'."'. There we were, thirty cabin and sixty steer- age passengers, i with only*a few feet around and .between those deck-houses . for exercise. In clear weather we roosted in the lumber yard, and when it was stormy we kept away from those piles of boards. They were secured with bits of small rope, so frail that the officers were constantly warningus to keep out of the passages when the ship rolled. If anything like a gale had struck us during that February, that lumber and that combustible oil would have made the vessel our death-trap. Our tripup on the City of Sydney was not so dangerous, but far more unpleasant than our experience on the San Juan. From the day we set foot aboard till we landed we were miser- able. - The passenger . accommodations are wretched. The cabin fares but little better than the steerage in some respects. I cannot understand why they set such shabby tables when food is not high on the coast. Good beef can be secured at reasonable figures, yet on the Sydney coming up they brought aboard an old steer whose horns were ringed with many years, and that leathery beef we ate all the way up. Fruit and vege- tables are given very sparingly. Wine never appears on the cabin table unless you pay for it three times as much as it would cost on shore either in California or Spanish America. When you remember the great number of wine- drinkingpeople who travel in those boats, and who would never eat without their favorite beverage," you may understand what a good re- tail liquor business the Pacific Mail does. One would think coffee on a Central Ameri- can coast steamer, passsing, as it does, in sight of the groves of Costa Rica, would be the best always, yet the stuff they gave us to drink on the Sydney was atrocious. Where the purser got it is a mystery. There is only one solution to the problem. Several months ago a large part of the Sydney's coffee cargo was flooded with water by the neglect of the engineers and the company had to pay for the rotten berries. Itis firmly believed by all who have drank of the bitter cup in the Sydney's saloon that the Pacific Mail turned that damaged cargo to a good account, y \u25a0 --•: / '- . >> :.:. An amusing thing in connection with our fare troubles on the steamer occurred every meal. While we were .trying to make a meal out of the poor menu before us we would hear the big negro steward and his waiters calling out loudly to the cook. "Beefstake fur de cap'iu!" "po'kehop fur de purser!" "ha'maigs fur de doktuh!" Despite our irritation the ingeniousness of this plan of posting the cook on the order was amusing, and never failed to make us laugh. However, It was more satis- faction to.learn that the Stewart and butcher were both detected at San ; Bias selling provis- ions loan Indian and discharged.. Even the water is bad and hardly fit to drink. One of the watering places .is at .Acapulco, and the reservoir is a filthyplace, and, as the American Consul told me, full of micro-organisms. The staterooms are neglected and soiled linen is permitted to lie around in the saloons and passageways all morning. I took special no- tice in the matter of washing stateroom towels and I found that the same soapy water was used four days hi succession, and consequently the towels were not only untidy, but had a disagreeable odor. Six of us first-class cabin passengers slept in one room with not enough space out of the berths to dress in. There was ;an ill-smelling stationary washstand in one corner and a water-closet above our heads. The bed cloth- ing was not clean and the narrow, strip of car- pet on the deck was heavy with dirt, and to cap it all the small glass dead-lights in the side of the ship were kept closed. 11 tell you the Pacific Mail is rapidly'gaining the hatred of the people on the Mexican and Central American Coast. The officials of the company. know that; the, inhabitants of the Pacific ports are at their ; mercy, and . have no relief. Passengers and shippers are put to all the inconveniences possible at the agent's office and on board the steamer. What a blessing a new freight and passenger service would be to those people. Coming up I talked with the three Colima survivors and they freely stated that the steamer was badly loaded and top- heavy. That is the opinion all along the coast. One strange thing is the way the steamers have of leaving port. No matter when they come in; no matter when they finish loading and unloading, they will lie quietly at anchor till late at night, even far after midnight. Why do they desire to go out of harbor at such un- reasonable hours? They will lie for two or three days in a little port perfectly idle in the burning heat. When out at sea we would get a little air. I willreturn to Salvador in October, but will go to New Orleans and by steamer to Guate- mala. BmSHMXfSHMraBSaBS Times are good in Central America now. Free silver is making everybody prosperous. I went down there a gold believer and return a silver man forever. WITH THE LOCAL OARSMEN The Crews for the Stockton Fourth of July Races Selected.

Caughlin is entered. A special meeting will be held this week by the members of this club to consider ways and means of removing their boathouse, which when located in its new position will be entirely remodeled. Another story will be built oh the present structure.which will be enlarged to cover an area of 40x50 feet. The second story will have a veranda ex- tending three-quarters of the way round, and will be devoted to meeting-rooms and a library. When everything is in readi- ness a house-warmer will be given. The South Ends sent their senior and junior crews out for spins in the morning, as did the Ariels and Pioneers. At North Beach the Dolphins, in their barge John Wieland, took a row out as far as Harbor View. The Ariels will add a new training barge to their already well equipped boathouse. This club is going to make a strong bid for share of the victories this season. The senior and junior crews of the Pioneer Boat Club took a party of friends down the bay yesterday to "San Mateo County, where lunch was spread. Several hours were spent listening to vocal and instrumental music and recitations. Among those who rendered selections were Miss Anneta Stuhr, the Misses Shields, Miss Rose Gallopy and J. G. McCormick. The following young ladies and gentlemen attended: Miss Julia Shields, Miss Anna Stuhr, Miss Hatty Callopy, Miss Lvla Hadler, Miss Sarah Shields, Miss Mamie Ledahan, Miss Tillie Smith, A. r redrickson, D.

THE NEW MILITARY RIFLE Experiments at Angel Island With the Krag-Jorgen- sen Gun. It Appears to Be a Most Ingenious and Effective Weapon of Modern Warfare. Although it is some time since the Krag- Jorgensen rifle was adopted as the weapon of the United States army, itis only with- in the last few weeks that the troops on this coast have been furnished with that peculiar and most effective gun. At Angel Island the soldiers have been practicing during the week with the Krag-Jorgensen. It is, in. all respects, a most singular rifle. The caliber is 30 and 412 grains is the weight of the cartridge. The powder used is smokeless and the shell is a combination of copper, nickel and steel, and something over four inches long. The pull is what is technically known ' as a light and creeping trigger, and when the release point is reached would be four pounds. The gun has a magazine carrying five shells, but can also be used as a single- loader. The explosion is accomplished by a needle falling on the shell, and this ab- sence of the projecting hammer may lead to a complete change in the manual of arms. The support and carry need the projection of the hammer, as does the pre- sent, to be properly executed. Therefore some substitutions in the positions will be necessary. The penetration of the piece in remarka- ble. The result of experiments made at Angel Island showed that the bullet fired at fifty paces would pass through thirty- seven pine boards one inch apart, and would bury itself sixteen inches in sea- soned oak. The velocity is about 2000 feet at the muzzle or fifty feet therefrom. The recoil is about seven pounds. The gun will shoot point blank at 400 yards, and is sighted up to 3000 yards, which puts the man behind it in the pre- dicament of guessing whether the object at that distance is a cow or a cavalryman. With the Krag-Jorgensen the new bayonet nas been served out, which is nothing more than a refined shovel or intrenching knife. The expert marksmen find one fault in the new weapon, and that is it casts decidedly to the left. But the object of advanced military warfare is accomplished in this rifle. Soldiers hold that to disable a man is much better than to kill him outright. The bullet from the Krag-Jorgensen, fired at a cadaver, has passed clear through flesh and bone. * In battle when a wounded man drops two of his uninjured comrades will pack him off to the rear. Therefore a successful shot virtually removes three of the enemy. Should the bullet penetrate another man six are disposed unless, indeed, the officer in command insists upon the wounded taking their chances until the skirmish is decided one way or the other, The bayonet is a marked improvement on the old weapon. As an entrenching weapon it is invaluable, and every man can dig his own hole in a short space. To resist a charge of cavalry itis as potent as the old three-cornered affair, if such a thing as a body of horsemen rushing up against a phalanx of men armed with repeating rifles could be imagined. The soldiers take kindly to the novel rifle, which, although so effective and in- genious, can be taken apart and put together . without the assistance of an armorer. Brown with which England won her battles, would laugh in her old- fashioned bonnet at this light, simple but deadly weapon of modern warfare. OLYMPIC TENNIS PLAY. Second Quarterly Tournament Held Yes. terday at the Club Grounds. Near Strawberry Hill. The second quarterly tennis tournament among members of the Olympic Athletic Club was held yesterday at the club grounds. The tournament occupied the entire day, and as several ladies were in at- tendance the courts presented a lively ap- pearance. Not so many players were pres- ent as have formerly contested in these events, but there was much good sharp play and some , exciting rallies at critical points in the games. Consolation prizes had been offered for those not skillful or lucky enough to se- cure either first or second place in the tournament, and as a result the courts were not deserted until late in the after- noon. The winners were: Tournament prizes Smith O'Brien first. W. P. Humphreys sec- ond : consolation prizes Bliven first. T. Kennedy second. The winning of the first tournament prize carries with it the trophy which remains in the victor's possession until won at a succeeding tournament by another. To become the personal prop- erty of a player it must De won by him three times. ; One of the new rifles used by the Italian soldiers sends a ball with force enough to to through five inches of solid oak at a distance of 4000 feet. / THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JUNE 24, 1895. 5 NEW TO-DAY.

SWIMMING AND DIVINGA Very Interesting Exhibition

at the Sutro Baths Yes-terday.

THE OCEAN BEACH CROWDED.

Herr Scheel Led the Park Band—ARunaway Horse Lassoed

In Time. \

The bulk of the people who were onpleasure bent yesterday seemed to selectthe ocean beach as a place of recreation,and the trains bound beyond Lands Endwere crowded until late in the afternoon.The trains south of the park were alsocrowded with people bound to the oceanside. The beach is lined with promenadersand here and there could be seen crowdsof merry youngsters shoeless and stocking-less, boys with their pantaloons rollea upabove their knees, and girls holding uptheir clothes in their hands, all wading inthe surf.

Those who tired of roaming on theocean sands went into the Sutro Baths towitness the swimming exhibition given bymembers of the Pacific Swimming Club,assisted by members of the Olympic Clubswimming annex and the Dolphin Swim-ming and Boating Club. The exhibitionwas witnessed by at least 5000 people.

There were diving contests, racing, tubracing, burlesque boxing on a float, duringwhich the contestants, angry at thedecision of the referee, pitched himinto the water; also log and tub racing,high diving, relay racing and skiff andcanoe races, but no time was taken as noneof the races were for records. Some por-tions of the programme were very amus-ing and the exhibition as a whole demon-strated that San Francisco has many ex-cellent swimmers. Some of the swimmerswho wore the uniform of the Dolphin Clubwore the thinnest of thin swimmingsuits that were cut very close top and bot-tom and when damp clung tighter thanthe costumes worn by the bronze statues.The Dolphins for the sake of decencyshould in future exhibitions appear inbathing dress that is not quite so clinging.

An amusing number was a water-cometsolo, "Moonlight fcjonate," (Beethoven) byMat »Gay. The performer holding hismouth close to the water hummed the airand produced sounds that were similar tothose of a new beginner on the corYiet.

The following is the programme thatwas presented:

CYCLING RON TO NILESAnnual Picnicof the California

Associated Cycling

Clubs.

Five Hundred Wheelmen Attended.No Accidents to Marthe

Sport.

The annual joint run of the CaliforniaAssociated Cyling Clubs to Niles Canyonyesterday brought forth all the prominentclub wheelmen from every city and townaround the bay, and a conservativeestimate placed the number at Niles at 500.Certainly there were more different makesof wheels, and more vari-colored sweaterswithall sorts of emblems on them, thanever before assembled at any one place.

The wheelmen from this City lefton the9a. m. creek route boat and rode from thefoot of Broadway, Oakland, where theywere joined by the Oakland riders. TheSan Jose clubs rode direct to Niles,and as they had a shorterdistance to traverse, and a wisecaptain who started them early, they werethe first at the park, and had dined beforethe main body arrived. Those San Jose-ans must have voracious appetites, or elsethe innkeeper failed to gauge the supplyof edibles by the number and hunger ofwheelmen, for when the big party gotthere itwas evident there would not behalt enough to go around. But a hungrycyclist is the last man to despair insuch apredicament, so those who could dined atNiles, and most of the others rode to Cen-terville, three miles away, where theywere generously fed, whereupon theywheeled back toNiles again.

--After luncheon the riders all went up

the canyon a short distance, where thereis a swimming-pool, which soon lookedlike a struggling mass of undressed men,so many took advantage of the refreshingplunge. Half a thousand active wheelmencan make things pretty lively anywhere,and the woods re-echoed with their shoutsand club cries.Itwas fully 3o'clock before the start for

hor was made, and many a pretty littlerat •; was indulged in going back betweenthe members of the rival clubs.

There were a few collisions, falls and in-jured wheels in consequence, but nothingserious to mar the day's pleasure. Itwasvery warm and dusty, but excepting be-tween Haywards and Niles the roads wereexcellent, and every one seemed to enjoythe ride. vW' rl:

The following clubs,' members of the as-sociation, turned out in large numbers:Acme Club Wheelmen, Bay City Wheel-men. California Cycling Club, CrescentRoad Club, Garden City Cyclers, ImperialCycling Club, Olympic Club Wheelmen,Reliance Club Wheelmen, Royal CyclingClub, San Jose Road Club.'

Allclubs not members of the associationwho desired to attend were cordially in-vited, and the followingavailed themselvesof the opportunity: Eintracht CyclingClub, Golden Gate Cycling Club. LibertyCycling Club, National Road Club, OutingRoad -Club, Pacific Cycling Club, SunsetCycling Club, San Francisco Road Club.

Captain John F. Burkof the Californiashad charge of the \u25a0 run and was ably as-sisted by the captains of all the otherclubs.

During the afternoon Louis Deloy of theImperial Cycling Club of San Franciscohad a narrow escape from drowning. Hewas in swimming with a party of wheel-men, when he was taken with cramps andsank to the bottom. Supposing he wasswimming under water no notice was atfirstpaid to him, but when the true causeof his disappearance was realized, C.T.Dodge, captain of the Bay City Wheelmen,who was also in bathing, dived to the bot-tom and brought Deloy ( to the surface.With considerable difficulty the wasbrought to shore, where Ittook almost tenminutes to revive him.

The Vallejo baseball nine was van-quished at Trulls Park yesterday. Ithaddefeated the Olympics the Sunday previ-ous, and yesterday the Pacifies con-quered them.

This was the first time the Vallejos andPacifies had played together, and it;was agood game, with a score of 2 to1, itbeingnecessary to play ten innings to settle itone way or the other. The time was re-markably short, being not quite two hours.

Both Cooney and Iburg pitched splendidball. The game was won for the Pacifiesby the batting of Smith and Kileyin thelast inning. Each made a two-base hit,letting the lucky ,man get home. A bril-liant double play by Kiley to Murphythen ruined the hopes of the Vallejos oftieing the score. Following is the score:

A SHARPSHOOTERS' WAR.They Object to Ammunition

Supplied by the StateAuthorities.

TESTED AT SCHUETZEN PARK.

The . New*

Powder PronouncedWorthless— Good Scores at

Shell Mound. V h

The sharpshooters of the National Guardare indignant. They object to Lieutenant-Colonel Howland of the Seventh Infantrybeing allowed to shoot off his score at LosAngeles while they have to go to Sacra-mento to win their bars and medals. Theyobject to paying their own expenses, andthey make the same old protest against thecartridges supplied by Uncle Sam.

Some of the best shots in San Fran-cisco said yesterday that the State scorerwas welcome to mark them up ten misses,as they had no intention of competing ifthey had to shoot shells supplied by theState.

In a letter to the Call on the subject,Fred C. Muller said:In the interest of the sharpshooters of the

National Guard of California Idesire to callyour attention to general order No. 9, issued atSacramento in May last. Itsets forth that allsharpshooters who have made a score of ninetyor more will be "permitted" to finish theirfinal string -at Sacramento, and further thatthey will he also "permitted" to pay their ex-penses to the capital, as | there is no availablecash inthe treasury to meet the necessary out-lay. ' > \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 ; '.' "•.>..•-;;..*-...y-'*.' ..:

Now, if the Government cannot pay our ex-penses, whynot, in all reason and fairness, al-low us to shoot our finalscores on the samerange at which we competed during our semi-annual target practice and thus save us timeand money? We are supposed to be inSacra-mento on the 28th inst. and that is collectionday and many of us can illafford to leave ourbusiness.Isee that one Lieutenant-Colonel Howland

is to be allowed to shoot off his score on theSeventh Infantry range, and I'd like to knowwhywe can't have the same privilege. Allwewant isa fair field and no favor, and may thebest shot win.

The ammunition we are to shoot with is notgood, and that is another thing that will keepthe sharpshooters away from Sacramento. Atthe semi-annual shoot which took place atShell Mound last week only about 98 out of600 men who were called showed upon accountof the cartridges served out. Everybody gotten shells, and of course the bulk of them werenot used. Eighteen of us secured ten roundseach of the stuff, and went to Schuetzen Parkto test it. The shells were filled in '91 and'92 and are not good now. Itis an utter im-possibility to make an accurate shot with themand the lead inthe bullets ruins our guns. Wedon't want to go to Sacramento and we won'tuse the Government ammunition.

Among those who tested the Governmentshells at Schuetzen Park yesterday wereH. R. Brown, T. J. Carroll, Captain W.Elliott, T. C. Muller. T. B.Moulton, H.Robinson and M.Reilly.- Before testingthe State's ammunition the two latter fired

Ioff a previously arranged match with thej followingresult:Robinson 6 45565546 4—47

IReilly 4 45565454 5—46Later in the day they had another con-

jtest with Uncle Sam's shells which re-;sulted as follows:Robinson. 4 34264343 3—35

IReilly 5 342 2 3442 4-33With the Government powder H. R.

Brown made 42 while his average is 47;Tom Carroll made 41 while his average isalso 47 and the others were all in the same

!boat. "Iam now trying to get the lead outof my gun," said Brown, "and 1can tellyou this Ihave fired my last round ofGovernment ammunition. , They can haveall the sharpshooting they want in Sacra-mento, but Iwillnot be a contestant."

."The cartridges are not good," said T. J.|Carroll. "They are old stock manufac-tured in 1891 and 1892 and no marksmancan do good work with them. The Statepays 2 cents a shell for this truck and ifthey would allow us we would have themreloaded here. The stuff is terrible on theguns and wears a shooter out. Why, Iwould sooner fire fiftyof my own shellsthan fiveof Uncle Sam's."

"Judging by the samples Ihave used to-day, the Government shells are bad; verybad, '

said Captain Elliot, "and Ifor oneam not going to risk my reputation as amarksman by attempting to shoot withthem. Ithink we should be allowed touse the same shells we practiced with andthat we should not be put to the expenseof going to Sacramento."

Captain F. B.Moulton said: "A sharp-shooter should be allowed to choose hisown ammunition. Four-year-old shellsthat are the refuse of the East are not goodand no man can make a good score withthem."

The Stanley medal was contested for atSchuetzen Park and won byPrivate Joneswith a score of46 out of a possible 50. Theother scores were:

Robinson 44, Dawson 43, Boyen 43, Carrigan43, A.Smith 42, J. Mulhearn 43, M.Reilly42.Jacobs 40, Fallon 41, Vanderbilt 41, BustonI41, Stolph 41, F. Mulhearn 40 and J. Patcher40.

The State shoot of Company D of theFifth will take place in Schuetzen ParkWednesday and Thursday next.

lars a Side.

They won the next "by21—14 to the intense surprise of Jones'friends, and an intermission of 10 minuteswas taken. In the third game Harlowand Kilgallon scored 17 aces to Jones 2,and itlooked as if they would win in threestraight. Jones began to toss in his oldform and amid the greatest excitementwon the game. The excitement was keptup in the fourth game by Jones againwinning, and his friends became hopeful.He had, however, overtaxed his strengthand his legs gave out. The - result wasthat Harlow and Kilgallon won the finaland the match..Itwas acknowledged by all that a pret-tier exhibition of handball had not beenseen in this City. ;Kilgallon's* play wasgreatly admired and Harlowrplayed

She also had abad list to one side.:Abaft of the houses is alarge space extendingto the stern and that was Ipacked with lumberlive or six feet high. The lumber extendedwell along the railingof the ship, leaving onlysmall passage-ways next to the deckhouses oneach side. Wnen the lumber gave out theyViled 500 cases of coal oil along the rails wellforward of the nouses. '.The forecastle of thevessel was filled with

'an assorted cargo of

freight, among which were several heavy piecesof machinery. f . -•'."'.

There we were, thirtycabin and sixty steer-age passengers, iwith only*a few feet aroundand .between those deck-houses .for exercise.In clear weather we roosted in the lumberyard, and when it was stormy we •kept awayfrom those piles of boards. They were securedwithbits of small rope, so frail that the officerswere constantly warningus to keep out of thepassages when the ship rolled. If anythinglike a gale had struck us during that February,that lumber and that combustible oil wouldhave made the vessel our death-trap.

Our tripup on the Cityof Sydney was not sodangerous, but far more unpleasant than ourexperience on the San Juan. From the day weset foot aboard till we landed we were miser-able. - The passenger . accommodations arewretched. The cabin fares but little betterthan the steerage insome respects.Icannot understand why they set such

shabby tables when food is not high on thecoast. Good beef can be secured at reasonablefigures, yet on the Sydney coming up theybrought aboard an old steer whose horns wereringed with many years, and that leatherybeef we ate all the way up. Fruit and vege-tables are given very sparingly. Wine neverappears on the cabin table unless you pay forit three times as much as it would cost onshore either in California or Spanish America.When you remember the great number of wine-drinkingpeople who travel in those boats, andwho would never eat without their favoritebeverage," you may understand what a good re-tail liquorbusiness the Pacific Maildoes.

One would think coffee on a Central Ameri-can coast steamer, passsing, as itdoes, in sightof the groves of Costa Rica, would be the bestalways, yet the stuff they gave us to drink onthe Sydney was atrocious. Where the pursergot itis a mystery. There is only one solutionto the problem. Several months ago a largepart of the Sydney's coffee cargo was floodedwith water by the neglect of the engineers andthe company had to pay for the rotten berries.Itis firmlybelieved by all who have drank ofthe bitter cup in the Sydney's saloon that thePacific Mail turned that damaged cargo to agood account, y \u25a0

--•:/'-. >> :.:.An amusing thing in connection with our

fare troubles on the steamer occurred everymeal. While we were .trying to make a mealout of the poor menu before us we would hearthe bignegro steward and his waiters callingout loudly to the cook. "Beefstake fur decap'iu!" "po'kehop fur de purser!" "ha'maigsfur de doktuh!" Despite our irritation theingeniousness of this planofposting the cookon the order was amusing, and never failed tomake us laugh. However, It was more satis-faction to.learn that the Stewart and butcherwere both detected at San ;Bias selling provis-ions loan Indian and discharged.. Even thewater isbad and hardly fit to drink. One ofthe watering places .is at .Acapulco, and thereservoir is a filthyplace, and, as the AmericanConsul told me, full of micro-organisms. Thestaterooms are neglected and soiled linen ispermitted to lie around in the saloons andpassageways all morning. Itook special no-tice in the matter of washing stateroom towelsand Ifound that the same soapy water wasused four days hisuccession, and consequentlythe towels were not only untidy, but had adisagreeable odor.

Six of us first-class cabin passengers slept inone room with not enough space out of theberths to dress in. There was ;an ill-smellingstationary washstand in one corner and awater-closet above our heads. The bed cloth-ing was not clean and the narrow, strip ofcar-pet on the deck was heavy with dirt, and tocap it all the small glass dead-lights in theside of the ship were kept closed.11tell you the Pacific Mailis rapidly'gainingthe hatred of the people on the Mexican andCentral American Coast. The officials of thecompany. know that; the,inhabitants of thePacific ports are at their ;mercy, and .have norelief. Passengers and shippers are put to allthe inconveniences possible at theagent's officeand on board the steamer. What a blessing anew freight and passenger service would be tothose people. Coming up Italked with thethree Colima survivors and they freely statedthat the steamer was badly loaded and top-heavy. That is the opinion all along thecoast.

One strange thing is the way the steamershave of leaving port. No matter when theycome in;no matter when they finish loadingand unloading, they willlie quietly at anchortilllate at night,even far after midnight. Whydo they desire to go out of harbor at such un-reasonable hours? They will lie for two orthree days ina little port perfectly idle in theburning heat. When out at sea we would get alittle air.Iwillreturn to Salvador in October, but will

go to New Orleans and by steamer to Guate-mala. BmSHMXfSHMraBSaBS

THE NEW MILITARY RIFLEExperiments at Angel Island

With the Krag-Jorgen-

sen Gun.

It Appears to Be a Most Ingenious

and Effective Weapon ofModern Warfare.

Although itis some time since the Krag-Jorgensen rifle was adopted as the weaponof the United States army, itis only with-in the last few weeks that the troops onthis coast have been furnished with thatpeculiar and most effective gun. AtAngelIsland the soldiers have been practicingduring the week with the Krag-Jorgensen.Itis, in. all respects, a most singular rifle.

The caliber is 30 and 412 grains is theweight of the cartridge. The powder usedis smokeless and the shell is a combinationofcopper, nickel and steel, and somethingover four inches long. The pull is what istechnically known

'as a light and creeping

trigger, and when the release point isreached would be four pounds.

The gun has a magazine carrying fiveshells, but can also be used as a single-loader. The explosion is accomplished bya needle falling on the shell, and this ab-sence of the projecting hammer may leadto a complete change in the manual ofarms. The support and carry need theprojection of the hammer, as does the pre-sent, to be properly executed. Thereforesome substitutions in the positions willbenecessary.

The penetration of the piece in remarka-ble. The result of experiments made atAngelIsland showed that the bullet firedat fiftypaces would pass through thirty-seven pine boards one inch apart, andwould bury itself sixteen inches in sea-soned oak. The velocity is about 2000 feetat the muzzle or fiftyfeet therefrom. Therecoil is about seven pounds.

The gun will shoot point blank at 400yards, and is sighted up to 3000 yards,which puts the man behind itin the pre-dicament of guessing whether the objectat that distance is a cow or a cavalryman.With the Krag-Jorgensen the new bayonetnas been served out, which is nothingmore than a refined shovel or intrenchingknife. The expert marksmen find onefault in the new weapon, and that is itcasts decidedly to the left.

But the object of advanced militarywarfare is accomplished in this rifle.Soldiers hold that todisable a man is muchbetter than to kill him outright. Thebullet from the Krag-Jorgensen, fired at acadaver, has passed clear through fleshand bone.

*In battle when a wounded

man drops two of his uninjured comradeswillpack him off to the rear. Therefore asuccessful shot virtually removes three ofthe enemy. Should the bullet penetrateanother man six are disposed unless,indeed, the officer in command insistsupon the wounded taking their chancesuntil the skirmish is decided one way orthe other,

The bayonet is a marked improvementon the old weapon. As an entrenchingweapon it is invaluable, and every mancan dig his own hole ina short space. Toresist a charge of cavalry itis as potent asthe old three-cornered affair, if such athing as a body of horsemen rushing upagainst a phalanx of men armed withrepeating rifles could be imagined.

The soldiers take kindly to the novelrifle, which, although so effective and in-genious, can be taken apart and puttogether . without the assistance of anarmorer. Brown with whichEnglandwonher battles, would laugh in her old-fashioned bonnet at this light, simple butdeadly weapon of modern warfare.

OLYMPIC TENNIS PLAY.Second Quarterly Tournament Held Yes.

terday at the Club Grounds. NearStrawberry Hill.

The second quarterly tennis tournamentamong members of the Olympic AthleticClub was held yesterday at the clubgrounds. The tournament occupied theentire day, and as several ladies were inat-tendance the courts presented a lively ap-pearance. Not so many players were pres-ent as have formerly contested in theseevents, but there was much good sharpplay and some ,exciting rallies at criticalpoints in the games.

Consolation prizes had been offered forthose not skillful or lucky enough to se-cure either first or second place in thetournament, and as a result the courtswere not deserted until late in the after-noon.

The winners were: Tournament prizes—

Smith O'Brien first. W. P. Humphreys sec-ond:consolation prizes

—Bliven first.T.

Kennedy second. The winning of the firsttournament prize carries with itthe trophywhich remains in the victor's possessionuntil won at a succeeding tournament byanother. To become the personal prop-erty of a player it must De won by himthree times.

;One of the new rifles used by the Italiansoldiers sends a ball with force enough to

to through five inches of solid oak at adistance of 4000 feet. /
