The meeting and bi-monthly dinner of the 8an Francisco Fly-CastiDg Club last Tuesday evening was well attended by the anglers and their guests, thus making the enjoyable affair another bright page in the history of this popular organiza- tion of sportsmen. Walter D. Mansfield presided as Chair- man, The evening was enlivened by vocal and instrumental music, after coffee and cigars the assembly were entertained by ChaB. 8. Wheeler, Esq., whose discourse was devoted mainly to the unlimited resources for sport and recreation at the disposal of the angler along the banks of the McCloud , one of the eraodest of trout streams. Incidentally the speaker alluded to the literature pertaining to the gentle art, illus- trating its great antiguity by an apt quotation from the New Testament. The Club decided to offer a tasteful trophy, in the Bhape of a gold match box, for competition at Chicago dnring the ermine open to the world tournament. Conditions govern- ing (he competition will be decided upon later. Horace Smyth, the popular Secretary of the club, is ex- pected to return to this city next month. His advent will be the occasion of a dinner by the members in his honor. Geo. F. Klink was elected to membership, there being a vacancy on the rolls. This leaves fourteen applicants still on the anxious seat. Among the members and guests present at the banquet were: E T. Allen, M. C. Allen, J. 8. Eenn, John P. Bab- cock, H. M. Whittle,
