DIMOND THE BEAUTIFUL. Where Sylvan Charms and Agricultural Prosperity Meet. THE HOME -SEEKERS' PARADISE. The Little Town in the Hills Becoming Famed for Natural and Agricultural Attractions. in the shelter of one of the loveliest lines of foothills in the State lies Dimond, the postofflce for Upper Fruitvale, now rapidly becoming one of the most popular residence districts about the bay.

It is always a matter of surprise, even to old Caiifornians coming to Dimond for the first time, to find within a short ride from San Francisco, and within a few momentsjourney of Alameda or Oakland, a spot where well-cultivated ranches, handsome houses, with all the luxurious appointments usually found only in city homes and bits of wild canyon and dense woods elbow each other in the happiest fellowship. Dimond is reached from the City by the broad-gauge and the Highland Park electric road, which meets the train at East Oakland and at Fruitvale station. Either of these lines present a varied and beautiiul panorama for the traveler's enjoyment, and five minutes' walk in any direction after reaching the terminus 1 1" brines one into some of nature's loveliest haunts. Almost within the town, on a beautiful wooded hill, stands the Altenheim, the handsome house which the Germans have recently built for the old people of that race, and on the opposite side of the town, in the midst of orchards and gardens, is the Fred Finch Orphanage. Fruitvale is for beauty one of the notable avenues in this country.

It abounds in lovely places, and is shaded for its whole length with majestic trees, bordering inviting gardens. The Tillmann place is one of the handsomest of these, where the senior partner of the San Francisco firm of Tillmann Bendel has made a beautiful home, and near is the residence of Mrs. Florence Blythe- Hinckley, which the Blythe millions are turning into a snot of wonderful charm. At the upper end of the avenue, checking its further progress in fact, is the residence of the late Hugh Dimond, from which place the popular Dimond Canyon and the postoffice take their name. "Di- mond Canyon is a famous picnic ground and a gathering-place just now for all the artists and sketching cluos within a radius of twenty miles.

It is a deep, but easily accessible ravine, densely wooded with laurels and oak, and flowing through it is a beautiful stream that dashes over several pretty falls on its way to the bay. of the most interesting sights to be seen anywhere in the neighborhood of San Francisco is a giant oak that stands near the Dimond residence. A veritable "grand old man" among trees is this venerable of the forest. In fact it is said to be, of its kind, the largest but one in the United States. One needs to walk about it and contemplate it for some little time before a realization of its gigantic proportions actually takes hold of the mind.

Its head towers high above all save the tallest eucalyptus trees in its neighborhood and its enormous outstretched branches have a spread of 96 'feet. It is a majestic tree, shapely and sturdy, and as seen now in the glossy beauty of its springtime foliage is a sight never'to be forgotten. How much of a population is already hidden away in the pretty homes that show everywhere among the bills may be judged from the handsome new schoolhouse which has just been completed, to meet the growing demands of the district. The Methodists are at present building a house of worship, and the Presbyterians have a neat edifice not far from the school building. For scenic interest and variety the country immediately about Dimond is tinequaled elsewhere in the neighborhood of the hay.

Diverging from the electric-car terminus are several roads leading up into the bills, and a new road connecting these and traversing the summit has just been opened by the Board of Supervisors and will soon be ready for travelers. When completed it will form the desired connecting between Alameda and Contra Costa counties, that has so long been a subject of earnest discussion. It will be more than this, for a syndicate of capitalists, of whom F. Mi Smith is one, are already applying for a franchise for an electric railway that shall follow the route of the new highway into the Moraga Valley, thus giving Ihe people of that region entrance into Oakland. There no more wonderful outlook in the State than is afforded all along this road.

It is possible now to drive the greater part of the distance over it, but those citizens of San Francisco and Oakland who enjoy the use of the organs of locomotion with which nature provided them, have long since discovered this to be a delightful and readily attainable holiday walk. completed the road will be a con- tinuation of the present Lincoln road, which climbs the heights to where Joaquin Miller has his quaint eyrie overlooking the bay. From beyond Mr. Miller's place it will traverse the summit and connect with the Redwood road, just before it takes its plunge down through the canyon into Contra Costa County. It will also connect with the present "Hayes Canyon road," along the Piedmont Hills and thence to Berkeley.

A tramp over the hills back of Dimond is a glorious outing these springtime days. Three or four weeks hence the trip may be taken luxuriously at the tail of a horse, and by another year we may be whizzed elong the summit by the witch power Oliver Wendell Holmes so fittingly called "The broomstick train." but he who is good for half a dozen miles may start from Dimond Corner any d.y and wend his way by an easy grade up the winding" road past the poet's domicile, and thence across the fields until he strikes the rough highway that now serves ranchers for getting to town. The road winds through a tangle of laurel and manzanita, by fern-grown banks and broad open stretches covered with poppies and cream-cups, violets and mallow, through veritable parks of redwoods and madronas, with never a sign to warn passers-by off the grass or away from the garden beds, where nature has spread her glories for the delight of all comers. A number of. well-known Oaklanders and San Franciscans have already secured summer homes up in these hills.

Mr. Thomas Magee has made a sort of earthly paradise out ol Alder Farm, where he spends what playtime he is not disporting in the high Sierras. Father McNally of Oakland has a ranch overlooking both counties, where he is considering the idea of colonizing some of the City's homeless boys and giving them a chance at useful lives. Near neighbors to him are J. T.

Classen and C. C. who will shortly build him a home overlooking San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda and the Golden Gate. V- There is a wonderful vista to be had on all sides from this ridge. The hills in front slope gently down to the level, where, than live miles distant, Fruitvale lies, like a fair garden.

Between are orchards and grainfields, with here and there dark I streaks of vivid green, showing where some stream-traversed ravine takes its woodsy way. They are mining for gold in one of these ravines, along the Redwood road, but with less success than are the otner prospectors, who, with cultivator and harrow, are mining the rich soil of the uplands and gathering their gold from orchard trees. Further out we look across to the San Mateo shore at the left, and on the right rises Tamalpais in his majesty, the "dead man laid out" seeming almost on level with our eyes. The Golden Gate invites our gaze ocean ward, and leads us in imagination through the kingdom of the earth and the glory thereof. Behind and below us are green hills and pastures new, rising even higher, tossed and tumbled together, until they actually seem to move, falling over other, as it were, in their hurry to scale the heights to where Diablo lifts his ragged heart.

Fifteen hundred feet is the elevation here, but so easy is the grade that one scarcely realizes the climb. 60 wide and wonderful is tbe outlook that 'tis hard to believe half an hour's drive will take us into East Oakland. Here is the paradise of wild flcwerseekers. The woods and hillsides are a blaze of glory this spring. One comes upon rounded eminences purple with the wild hyacinth or white with cream cups.

A mile above Dimond Canyon the wild pansy grows, bright yellow, with a purple center and a dash of the same color at, the back of the 7 two upper petals. There aro many varieties of mallow, and representatives of the great lily family grow in rank profusion everywhere. In the woods the azaleas are in blossom, and the huckleberry, with which the hillare covered, is just beginning to show its beautiful white flowers. Later on the berry-pickers will be out in force for this is a happy hunting-ground for those who do not believe Thorean that no one ever really succeeded in getting a huckleberry into town.

THE HANDBALL COURTS. Amateur Champion Donnelly and T.

F. Bonnet Defeat Coait Champion Harlow and J. Riordau. There was great excitement at the San Francisco handball court yesterday afternoon when J. Harlow, the coast champion, and J.

Riordan, who held the championship for many years, played against P. T. Donnelly, the amateur champion, and T. F. Bonnet.

What lent more than usual interest to the match was the fact that next Sunday afternoon Bonnet and Harlow will play for a $50 trophy, to be presented to the winner by Phil Ryan, the proprietor of the court. It was also the first time that Harlow and Riordan had played together. It was thought that Harlow and Riordan would have an easy thing of it, but to the genuine surprise of everybody the reverse was the case. The first game was possibly one of the keenest contested of I any ever seen on the coast, Bonnet and Donnelly winning it by one ace through a cleverly executed stroke of Donnelly's. They won the next game by four aces.

Harlow and Riordan saved duck's egg by winning the third, Bonnet and Donnelly taking the fourth and the match. At the Union court the event of the day a match between J. J. Feeney and Terry McManus and R. Linehan and J.

Company of. the Fifth Regiment Competes for the Possession of the Company Medal. As a con trast to last Sunday, the weather was everything that could be desired yesterday for directing leaden missives to the center of the circumscribed twenty circled margin round the sharpshooters' bullseye. The attendance at the Schuetzen butts, however, was not as great as last Sunday. The principal event was the assembling of Company Fifth Regiment, to compete for the company's medal.

The record made Dawson 46, T. Mullhern 44, F. Jaeoby 44 H. Boyer 42, T. Fallon 42.

This ouartet comprised Fred Kuhls of the old Second, E. F.Davis of the Third, T. S. Archer of the Fifth and F. C.

Miller of the First. The score stood Miller 102, Kuhls 90, Archer 76 and Davis 72. The naval reserve put an early appearance and had justcommenced to make holes in the pasteboard when a dispatch came from the City ordering the company to cease bring and return to participate in the funeral of Governor Jones of Nevada. A Boy Burglar. Henry Gilmore, a boy peddler 16 years of age, went into Ewell's dairy, corner of Twentythird and Folsom streets, early yesterday morning and stole a watch belonging to G.

W. Parlier. He was caught 'before he left place and held till Policemen Griffiths and Anderson arrived. Ho was taken to the Seventeenth-street police station; and booked for burglary. When searched some silk handkerchiefs, a bottle of perfume, a bottle of sweet oil and a pair of cuff-buttons were found in his pockets, supposed to be the proceeds of another burglary.

German Marksmen Hold Their Monthly Medal San Rafael Military Shoots. It was expected that yesterday the Shell Mound rifle-range would be pacKed with marksmen, but the funeral of Governor Jones of Nevada, drew away hundreds of military riflemen who were booked for their monthly medal competitions. However, the shooting-stalls were far from empty, for several German sharpshooting clubs and the Columbia Pistol and Rifle Club turned out goodly numbers and the marksmen were kept busy. Early in the morning and late in the afternoon the light and weather were good, but at midday a heavy wind blew in gusts over the range. The members of the Columbia Club shot a lot of lead over the range during the day, and, as might be expected, made a number of fine scores on the new target.

F. U. Young paralyzed the crowd by shooting smokeless, powder straight in his 32-40 rifles. It is' customary to reduce the charge, but Young's experiments show that it is safe to use the new nitro in the same measure as the ordinary black powder. In fact he loads his shells to the top and a -lance at his scores shows that he obtained excellent results on the target.

The recoil of a full chaige is less than that of the black powder and the barrel is clear after every shot. 77. D. W. McLaughlin also did some fine work with rifle and pistol.

He is one of the most reliable in the club. Mc- Laughlin began rifle-shooting twelve years ago. He went to Chicago during the World's Fair and -won the Columbian medal on the man-target on 94 out of a possible 100 points. In the New York- California team match in 1892 he made the highest score in the California team, 1092 out of a possible 1250 points.

nament. Semi-Monthly Contest of the Empire Gun at A-ameda P-int. The third and last day's trapshooting of the California State Sportsmen's Association's tournament was held yesterday at the Oakland Trotting Park. The attendance was larger than on either of the preceding days, and between times many of the shotgun enthusiasts amused themselves in small matches upon inanimate targets near by. Many of the old-time siapshot- were present and told how they killed pigeons in years gone by.

There; was one man present who never misses a match, nor has he for twenty years past. He is old man Price, the trapper. This aged trapper has manipulated the strings in nearly all the matches held on the bay, and when in a reminiscent mood, Price can tell many anecdotes of sports and sportsmen of other years, and in many cases he- can tell to a bird bow many each sportsman killed in the big matches. He has trapped almost constantly for the association since it was inaugurated, fourteen years ago. The lirst event yesterday was a six-bird match, which resulted in six ties on clean scores.

These ties were shot off in the second match and three of them, Fendner, Fanning ana Robinson, again tied and divided the purse. The first scores stood: Fendner 6, Fanning 0, Sedam 0, Stilling 6, Robinson 0, Doe 0, Haight 4, Courtney 4, Jones 4," McMurchy 4, Brown 3. The second event was a fifteen-bird match, $10 entrance and $105 in the- pool. It started out with goodly string of shooters, but one by one they withdrew after a few misses, leaving the purse to be divided among the four who made fourteen kills, as seen here: Robinson 14, Fendner 14, Webb 14, Fanning 14, Brown 14, McMurchy 13. The third event was 'on twelve birds, $7 50 entrance.

Like the other match many withdrew, leaving the purse be divided among those who made eleven kills. Score: Sedam 11, Fanning 11, Webb 11, McMurchy 10, Robinson 10. The score of the fourth event, twelve birds, $7 50 entrance, was as follows: Sedam 12, Fenaner 11, Haight 11, Robinson 11, McMurchy 10, Nelson 5, Wagner 4. Sedam took first' uoney. Fendner and Haight divided the At least ten withdrew to save birds.

There was, quite a number of entries in the fifth an eight-bird match with D. W. McLaughlin, One of the Best Shots in the Columbia Pistol and Rifle Club. $5 entrance, but only the following shot to the end, Webb and Fanning dividing the entire purse 777 Fannin? 8, Webb 8, Haight 7, McMurchy 7, Sedam 7, Robinson 6. EMPIRE GUN CLUB.

A Lively Day's Sport on Inanimate Targets at Alameda Point. vv, The Empire Gun Club's semi-monthly contest was held yesterday at Alameda Point. The attendance was and a number of the members shot up on their last month's record. The main match was at twenty-five blue rocks at unknown I angles and the following scores were made: Stewart 20, Varney 18, Billington 22, Leeds 21, Newton 16, Burgans 24, Olson 15, Baber 12, Young 20, Gross 17, Fischer 19, Goodwin 14, Uhl 13, Winning 21, Paul 6, Keatings 14, Kerrison lv.Trombone 19, Tubbs 17, Anderson 16, Prather 11, Quinton 16, Rodgers 16, Huntley 19, Williams 15, Lears 18, Jarette 15, King 14, Baker 13, Andrus 23. The second event was a special ten-bird match and annexed are the scores: Newton 10, Trombone 9, Burgans 9, Billington 9, Olson 8, Fischer 8, Robins 7, Rodgers 6, Gross 5.

THE FIRST CRICKET GAME. It Was Won and Lost at the Golden Gate Grounds The Alameda and Golden Gate Grounds Compete, the Former Vie orious. The cricket season of 1896 opened yesterday, with a match between representative teams of the Alameda and Golden Gate grounds at Golden Gate. It was an ideal day for the game, and those who witnessed the contest were amply repaid for their journey. 7 .7 7 The contest resulted in a victory for the Alameda ground, though had time admitted of its being played to a finish the homo team must have won the day.

As will be seen by the scores the latter were within six runs of their opponents at the finish, and that with six more wickets to fall. The play all round was excellent. In addition to the various creditable batting feats indicated in the subjoined score- Pollock's catch of Wiseman, Wiseman's revenge with Pollock and Cookson'a catch of Muteh all in the second special mention. .7 'bb The field was in grand shape and testified to the untiring work of the Bohemians and Californians during the winter.
