Bu BERKELEY GIRLS BEAT SAGEBRUSH MAIDENS 14 TO 1. TRKELEY has beautiful hair, which she wears in long, satiny braids +1 with golden ribbon. Her blue sailor collar ends in a knot of gold, liere’s a golden sash at her walst, golden strings lace her tennis shoes, i there’s a golden band just below her left knee. When Nevada came upon the fleld yesterday afternoon to be slaughtered, she looked slight and youthful and childlike, but exceedingly graceful in her loosely flowing bloomers and blouse of red, her dark stockings and low shoes, a knot of gold at her belt and at her throat. She was greeted right royally by Berkeley and the crowd of women that filled the Odd Kellows’ Hall, and the ada college yell went up from blue-and-gold beribboned damsels with such srvor that Nevada blushed and smiled with gratification. Berkeley plays basket-ball with all her heart—which is large. She leaps, she he slides, she scrambles, and the ball is always hers. Her play is fast and (! There's an understanding between her captain and her men—that is say, women—which makes the ball leap from one *blue” pair of hands to another, as though it had been hypnotically wooed in the proper direction. Berkeley has learned that there’s a place for everything, and that the basket-ball field is not the place for dignified demeanor. She's a child, an athlete, an en- thusiast here, and she's rightly a conqueror. Yesterday’s game was splen- didly fought and fairly won. Every girl in the team had a share in the victory. Nevada is a bit timid. In her innocence she fouls without intending it or knowing her crime when it has been committed. She’s slow when compared to ift alertness of Berkeley. She knows she is handicapped by the fact that nd as a team she’s younger and less experienced than Berkeley. She's had no coach. She’s never played a game of basket-ball outside the com- forting precincts of the Reno University gymnasium. She’s had no training, and though she plays with all her might, her efforts don’t score because of the lack of co-operation. Captain Brownsill and her stanch lieutenant, Miss Robin- son, who threw nearly every goal Berkeley scored yesterday, are the Castor and Pollux of basket-balldom. They are two souls with a single thought, and that thought keeps thrusting the yellow ball forever up and against the coy basket. Berkeley has a guard, Miss Haworth, every Inch of whose seventy inches is worth its weight in blue and gold. She towered over her little, fair- aired Nevada rival, and she watched over the enemy's side of the field so well that it was a speedy and cleverly thrown ball that escaped her three-foot jump. Nevada was outclassed, outplayed, well beaten. But she is true to her repu- tation for sagebrush pluck in fighting desperately till the last, ignoring the *1—2—3—4- ~§—-9—-10—11—12—13—14"" counted out with remorseless delibera- tion by triumphant Berkeley, and retaining her good-humor under circum- stances that might try veteran contestants. More accomplished rooters than the Berkeley girls it is agine. They sang, they howled, they stamped. They distributed college yells erously, Impartially. Never a point escaped their vigilant eyes and mouths, It didn’t matter whether it was a flying red dash or a whirling blue dot that caught and threw the ball. Immediate fame, loud-voiced and reiterated, was the lot of the victorious one. *Good girl, Nevada,” was the serious commenda- tion that floated down in a well-trained chorus from the gallery. And when Berkeley threw a goal you should have heard the *“Ha, ha, ha! California. U. C. Berkeley, Zip! Boom! Ah!" The spectators were informed that Miss Rued was all right, and were ques- tioned as to what was the matter with various other misses, but when the game grew warm and despite Nevada's good throwing the ball was kept and held about Berkeley’'s goal, “Good girl, Bessie! Good girl, Sarah!" replaced the more formal c winding up in a rapturous ode to California and Berkeley that Nevada was tempted to join in—had she been as well drilled as those who sat open-mouthed, flapping their arms like wings beneath the blue-and-gold be- = impossible to im- ribboned baton of ti Brownsill flew at h again after the ball on the other.

But the enthusiasm above was no greater than that on the fleld. When Ne- vada scored that solitary one the gallery was allve with the waving of handker- chiefs, the ““Wah! Wah! Wah! Nevada!” of the sweet-volced rooters, the ex- cited, bent-down faces of the crowd.

Eightecn Months Old Baby Had Rash on Shoulder for Two Years Causing Intense Suf- fering. Would Scab Over, Break Open and Be Raw. Several Doctors and Reme. dies Tried. Efforts Fruitless. Cured by CUTICURA. My sister had this rash come on her shoulder wien she was about eighteen months old. It was there about two years cansing her intense suffering. We had several different doctors, tried everything that we could think of, and that every one could suggest without effect- ing a cure. In spite of all we did it kept spreading. One day it would scab over and then crack open and a watery matter 00ze from it and the scabs would all fall off. It wonld beraw for a time, then scab over again. Bomeone recommended CUTICURA REMEDIES. ‘We immediately procured a box of CUTICURA (ointment), a cake of CUTICURA SOAP, then tried the CUTICURA RESOLVENT, and before the bottle was half gone we saw a marked change, and by the time it was gone, she was entirely cured without a scar being left. She is now twelve years old, and has not had a yimple or sign of blood trouble since. Curmr,“. L _’S.‘ second; Irwin, B. b b. 18, °98. Mise LIL g third.

The brawn of the Oakland High School carried her cerulean colors to victory, with Berkeley a close second, | and Ukiah third. Henley of Ukiah estab- | lished a new record in the running high jump, clearing the pole at 5 feet 9 inches | in an exhibition jump after putting his | opponents out at 5 feet 7% inches.

Harrison. Brother and Sister-in-Law of Po- lice Officer William Har- rison. Among the many victims who per- ished while attempting to cross the Chilcoot Pass, as told in yesterday’'s Call, were C. P. Harrison, a brother of Police Officer William Harrison, and Mrs. James Harrison. The latter was the wife of James Harrison, who is well known in this city and who is at present in Dawson City. Several months ago James Harrison left this city for Alaska. He left his wife here, promising to send for her as soon as he reached Dawson City. Sev- eral weeks ago Mrs. Harrison received a letter from her husband, in which he stated that he had struck it rich and asking her to join him at once. He also wrote to his unfortunate brother, descriping the wonderful resources of the frozen north and begging him to accompany his wife in the hazardous trip. After thinking the matter over Harri- son consented to make the journey with his sister-in-law. They left here a short time ago and stopped over at Seattle, intending to take the first boat for Alaska. Last night Police Officer Harrison was officially notified of the tragic death of his brother and sister-in-law. Omr being told of the sad occurrence Captain Spillane at once granted him a short leave of absence. “This is sad news indeed, tearfully remarked the brother of the deceased man. “He confidently expected to ac- quire considerable wealth in the Alaska gold fields, and I believe he would have succeeded except for his tragic ending. Jim left this city some time ago, in- tending to send for his wife as soon as he had located a claim. The last letter we received from him announced that he had struck it rich and asking his wife to join him. He expected that Charley would accompany her, as it was agreed that he shoul? do so. They left this city several weeks ago thor- oughly satisfied that they would have a hazardous trip, but earnestly hoping to reach Dawson City. “After reaching Seattle they wrote me that they were ready to embark on their perilous journey and promised to let me know just as soon as they reached Dawson. “The sad occurrence will greatly af- fect by brother Jim, as he was very much attached to his wife. I intend to do all in my power to get possession of the bodies, but from the present reports it may be very doubtful. However, I have already communicated with the authorities of Alaska with a view of securing the remains of my dead rela- tives.” —_———————— SHARKEY FIGHTS TWO MEN.
