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:

The club-swinging and boxing betweenthe bantams took place on the musicians'platform. The boxing was indead earnestand in the third round, Smith lost a littleblood. The exhibition was under the di-rection of George S. McCombs.

There were many people in the park, butnot so many as usual. In spite of all thetrouble he has had Herr Scheel led theband.

During the afternoon a horse in chargeof Henry Peterson, broke away from acart near the children's play-ground andmade for the main drive. He was going ata lively gait when Mounted Officer J. H.Kavanagh skilfully threw his lariat overhim and brought him up with a roundturn, an act which greatly enlivened themany on the drive and won for the officermuch commendation. Inhis mad run thehorse knocked down twochildren, but didnot hurt either.

A man driving down the speed-trackmiscalculated his distance, ran against oneof the fence posts, was thrown out butescaped injury. __RUNNING DOWN HARES.Some Exciting Contests . Among the

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.

GOOD BALL AT VALLEJOOlympics Defeat the Local

-Team by

Two to One.*

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.

JONES' COLORS LOWEREDKilgallon and Harlow. Defeat

the Australian Hand-ball Champion.

Return Match Arranged for NextSunday for Two Hundred Dol-

lars a Side.

Denver and San Francisco met Australiain the San Francisco Handball Court yes-terday afternoon, and after . a brilliantstruggle for supremacy Australia had totake 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 amatch, the best fivegames, for $100 a side.

The match attracted an immense crowd,Every seat in the gallery was filled, andstanding room was at a premium. It wasthe first time that Jones and Kilgallon hadplayed against each other, and the eventnaturally aroused the liveliest interestamong handball players. Betting was2 to 1against Jones.

Harlow and Kilgallon started off bywinning the firstcame in short order by ascore of 21—6. 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

'a

grand game. Jones showed the vlack oftraining, 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 fromAustralia and an ardent admirer of Jones,posted a forfeitof $25t0 back Jones againstthe same team, the match to take placenext Sunday for $200 a side. Kilgallonpromptly covered. the deposit. As Jonesays his defeat to his poor condition lie

willgo into active training and promisesto be in first-class condition next Sunday.

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 shipswent to Honolulu to load with sugar forNewJ York, but

'as there was;only sugar

enough for one cargo, which was to go tothe first arrival, the race developed into aclearly defined (business proposition. 1Notto win the race meant a "layoff"in Hono-lulu for something "over a month. \u25a0•

The TillieE. Starbuck left here on May23 and the Manuel Llaguna about thirty-six hours '• later. :.The -Tillie,E.

TRAVELMISMANAGEMENTOverloading and Bad Loading

as the Rule in the PacificMail Company.

HOW CABIN PASSENGERS FARE.

Lumber and Coal-Oil Laden BoatsThat Roll Dangerously in

;*

Calm Seas. 4 tUV.

Reckless overloading and daneerousbad' loading of the Pacific Mail steamersproves not to be the exception, but therule, and almost everybody, except thecompany's officials, who have been fortu-nate to escape disaster on those vessels,appear to have testimony not agreeable toMr. Huntington and

-Mr. Scberwin. Dr.

L.R. Wagoner, a dentist of Seattle, whoarrived on the City of Sydney Saturday,sailed from San Francisco for CentralAmerica on the San Juan last February.He said:

The San Juan was so crowded with freightand so topheavy that she 'rolled from side toside even inthe mildest sea. 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. /
