Blue and Gold Victorious in the Second Game of Baseball. WINS FROM THE START. Palo Altoans Throw Wildly and Let In Many Unearned Runs. SCORE THIRTEEN TO THREE. Good Team Work and Heavy Batting Tell in California’s Favor. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., May 2,—Stanford met with a most decisive de- feat in the second intercollegiate baseball game with Berkeley this afternoon. The cardinal wearers were simply outplayed, and Berkeley’s nine established the fact that Stanford will have to wake up or she 18 bound to lose the championship this year, for the first time in her history. Captain McLaine pitched a weak game for Stanford, and was easily found by the Berkeley batters, who hit him hard and often. Heretofore McLaine has been con- sidered invincible when in form, but if such is actually the case he must have been out of condition to-day. On the other hand Morden pitched a strong game for Berkeley. He was effect- ive at critical stages of thé game and played good ball from the beginning to the end. Some of the over-anxious Stan- ford “rooters” carried their ‘‘joshing” to an unnecessary degree in the hope of rattling the Berkeley nine, but the visitors stood it withont murmuring. This at- tempt to rattle Berkeley players on the part of some Stanford supporters was un- sportsmanlike andis regretted by a major- ity of the students. At one period of the game it looked as though the jeering was to result in stopping the play, but a better humor soon prevailed and the game pro- ceeded. Berkeley certainly has a strong aggrega- tion of players and the final game which is to decide the championship should be a most interesting match. It is to be played at San Jose on Stanford day—May 8—during the rose carnival. A large crowd of students were on hand to see the game—probably not less than 600. The chief features of the play were the excellent fielding of Berkeley and the heavy hitting of Hoag and Krugz. For Stanford, Jeff’s catching and Sharp’s all- round work were the noticeable incidents of the contest. Berkeley was first at bat, but failed to get a man as far as third, though three men got as far as second. In her half Stanford put one man across the plate. Taylor got first on balls, stole second ana third on wild throws and came in on Harris' safety. Harris was caught out on | second and Young suffered a like fate. Berkeley succeeded in getting her first man across the plate in the second. Stan- ford failed to make connections in her half, and then the fireworks began. Berke- ley enjoyed the same fortune that Stan- ford did last Saturday—she played a team which was ‘‘rattled” and threw wildly. Three long safe hits were made in succes- sion and Krug, on a hit which would have ordinarily meant but one bag, brought in three men and came in himself befors the wild throwing of the Stanford players ceased. Stanford and Berkeley then kept each other down until the sixth inning, when Berkeley’s luck returned, netting her four more runs and Stanford began to get dis- couraged. Good playing and a streak of long hits were responsible for the score in this inning, though both Young and Sharp for Stanford by their wild throws augmented the total. Wheeler, Hennes- sey and Krug were the Berkeley batters in this irning, and the score stood 9 to 1 in favor of the visitors. Stanford stock rose alittle in the last half of the seventh. McLaine took his base on balls, stole second, and came in on Taylor’s hit; while Taylor scored on Har- ris’ two-bagger. Young and Sharp both flew out. - It was just a question now of how many runs Berkeley would pile up. Three more tallies were credited to her in the seventh, while Stanford could do nothing ap- parently to turn the tide. Berkeley scored again, and for the last time in the eighth, and Stanford was un- able to score at all in her remaining in- nings. The score ended 13 to 3 in favor of Berkeley.

Commissioner Doherty in Office in Defiance of the Sheriff's Force. TACOMA, Wasn., May 2.—Mayor Faw- cet’s mew appointee, Thomas Doherty, Board of Public Works Commissioner, who has been denied his right of posses- sion through an injunction secured in Judge Stallcap’s court, -got possession of his office to-day after a conflict between the Sheriff's forces and the police. Mullen, the Republican occupant, last evening requested Sheriff Parker to deputize a few men to protect his office, | which request was granted. This morn- ing the Chief of Police appeared and in- formed Sheriff Parker that if the latter would ieave the rcom and take his' men with him he would clear the room of strasgleru and leave the office just as it was found. This the Sheriff agreed to and withdrew his men. He had no sooner disappeared than the Chief of Police and his officers rusbed in and forcibly ejected Mullen. Sheriff Parker, hearing of this, returned with his men, and a pitched battle seemed imminent, but the Sheriff’s deputies were hustled out of the hall and Doherty took the office for which he has been fighting for thirty days. Shortly afterward the Chief of Police was arrested and charged with assault. Ml o m PUGET SOUND QUARANTINE, Officials Guarding Against an Invasion of the Black Plague.

Rea and John Roll by Edward Halsey. Halsey was employed as expert by the last Grand Jury, and, it is claimed by the accused, that because the board refused to allow a bill for work other than that of expert, he sought to have the defendants removed from office for neglect of duties and fined $500 each, which, he claimed, should go to the informer. Supervisor Belby, who had moved that Halsey’s claim be paid, was not mentioned in the com: plaint. The court upheld the Bupervisors in all the acts mentioned in the complaint,.and ordered the charges dismissed for lack of grounds. Halsey wasalso scored atlength for making such charges through malice. cnmsohe s Oliver Beauliow Dead.

PORTLAND, Or., May 2.—“It’s the old story of the pitcher going to the well once too often,” said a prominent customs official to-day when questioned as to the arrest of Swope, Dement and UDolan, the men charged with conspiracy against the United States in having aided in the illégal landing of Chinese in this country. “Swope I have considerable sympathy for,”” he continued, “but as to the other iwo men the Government proposes to rigidly prosecute both, it possessing evi- dence in abundance to ‘show their guilt— particularly so with Dolan. It can be proved that since arriving in Portland he has had no really legitimate employment aside from some Kront-street commission transactions, and has existed by just such methods as contained in the working through the Custom-house of these Chinese, ‘‘Dement has a sort of position as an Oriental poll-tax collector and occasion- ally serves as JuEnnm interpreter, but the affidavits of the witnesses employed by the combine show him to be equally guilty with Dolan. Swope has acted more as a go-between than anything else, his connection with the Custom-house having én-'nn him a large acquaintance with the hinese merchants of this city, which was of value in locating the agents of the ap- plicants for landing. “The scheme worked is exactly the same as in the casein which Nat Blum turned State’s evidence and testified against Mulkey, Dunbar, Lotan and others two years ago.

Testimony of -the Forgers Dispatched to Washington in Charge of T. E. Gibbon. LOS ANGELES, OAr., May 2.—The more the frauds in gathering names for the Santa Monica petitions are probed the wore offensive is the odor they give forth. As the matter stands now, there will not be one name in a dozen that will prove to be the signature of any one but mythical personages, existing only in the imagina- tions of the unscrupulous men who did the work. This morning the Free Harbor League agents secured three more affidavits from men who aided in the fraud, F. McGov- ern, a waiter, swears that at the request of E. D. Morris he signed nine names to the Southern Pacific petition. W. P. Parker, a painter, makes affidavit that he wrote twenty of the fraudulent signatures. A. McBain swears that he wrote ffteen of them. 5 These forged signatures have been used by Collis P. Huntington and his agents in an attempt to make Congress believe that they represented the wishes of the people of Los Angeles. Hon. T. E. Gibbon, vice-president of the Los Angeles Terminal Railway and a member of the Free Harbor League, left here for Washington this morning with his pockets bulging with documentary evi- dence calculated to convict the Santa Monica boomers of this villainy. It is ex- pected that he will reach Washington be- fore the final consideration of the harbor question. —_— LA FORTUNa’S BIG YIELDS. 4 Mine Near ¥uma Whick Contains ‘Millions in Free Gold.

CONCTED AT CASDN John T. Jones Found Guilty of Stealing Bullion From the Mint. Almost Collapses When the Verdict Sending Him to the Peniten. tiary Is Read. CARBON, Nrv., May 2.—John T. Jones, charged with stealing bullion from the United States Mint 1n this city, stands convicted. When Foreman Williams arose and handed in the verdict at 4 o’clock this afternoon a deathly pallor came over the face of Jones. He had pinned his faiti: on several young men on the jury who he thought would be for him. When the word was pronounced that settled his fate his head dropped, but he soon braced up | and started with the Marshal to the jail. As Jones passed along the street crowds gathered, full of curiosity. As he met ac- quaintances he nodded, but tears were in | his eyes and his face was grave. Inside | the jail Marshal Humphrey searched him | for weapons or poison, as he had said that | if convicted he would commit suicide. It1s considered almost certain that ar- rests will follow this week of persons in- volved by James Heney’s confession. WILLIAM DEVENY, 31 North Fourth Street, Portland, Or. PORTLAN’D, OR., FEBRUARY 15.— The word genial must have been dis- covered after men had traveled much, seen the world, looked over the various frailtles of human kind and touched the philoso- pher’s stone. Take Wiiliam Deveny as an example. I spent fully two hours with that genial gentleman, and scarce knew the time bad flown so swiftly. He told me of his travels, his hardships, the bright, the dark side, and then he interested me most when he spoke about California. “By the way,” said he, “California is just now coming in for a great deal of praise, and I must confess I am heartily elad to be able to vraise California also. You see, the great Californian remedy, Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, has been introduced in Fort- land lately and many of our best families are now using it. I used Joys’ Vegetable Sarsapariila myself. I found it pleasing to the taste and effective—yes, very effective. I was notin adying condition, of co urse not, but [ felt mean, all run down; or, to use the proper word, I felt jaded. After using one bottle of Joy’s Vegetable Sarsa- parilla I felt so much better that I ordered another bottle, and the resalt is entirely satisfactory. Ladies and gentlemen are now using Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilia, and all that I know praise it. Itisa great remedy. It works like a charm and does not gripe. It cleanses the bloud and yet brings out no pimples. Certainly Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla is a very l‘mlglo family remedy.” 1 After leaving Mr. Deveny I talked with several well-known ladies, and they all agreed Joy’s Vegetable Sarsaparilla was a fine remedy. AsIhave before remarked, one does not meet the substitute here. There are no mean people here who wish to offer something just as good for the home remedy—Joy’s Vegetable Sarsapa- rilla.

If you are troubled with any of theabove symptoms, then, reader, TAKE TiME BY THE FORELOCK. Never put off a duty you owe to yourself or another. Half the evils of life come from things deferred. The time to see the doctor is when you realize that you have violated the laws of Nature. Don’t wait tor the penalty to manifest itself. A little medicine now will do more than a’ whole drugstore by and by. So come to Dr. Sweany at once, and in-sacred corfidence tell him all. He will do more than help you keep your secret. He will help you forget it. Diseases fully cured soon cease to be even matters of memory. = % Don’t confess to your family. It will only cause them shame and grief. Den’t tell your closest friend. Friend- ships are not always lasting, and the temptation to gossip is great. < If you cannot come to San Francisco write Dr. Sweany fully and freely, with the assurance that your letter will be kept ° carefully concealed from curious eyes.
