Why he | ern city, has withdrawn from our con- ! fines. For three days, at least, he has not been seen in San Francisco. In the | early part of last week brother attaches | of the rious consulates of this city were surprised by the receipt of “‘pour | prendre conge’” .cards, sent out by the | man who represents a country not now on bowing terms with us. Ordinarily the ethics of the consular system B imposes the distributjon of | favors only when a con- | recalled, or departs the | protracted or uncertain | country on jou mind: a This is what has caused in the | of the consular fraternity many misgivings and stupendous conjectures. | the Spanish consul know the | proper forms thoroughly, or has he heen called to Washington by the voice of the Spanish minister domietled there? The latter is the solution of the | problem suggested by many i sular clrcles | has deserted his post here In San Fran- cisco the gentlemen who keep a lookout for the welfare of their countrymen | in thiz city are not in a position to say. They recognize the air of mystery that envelops the departure of Senor Fe- | lipe, but are unable to account for it with any definite or certain explana- | tions. He has just left us. For how, long or on what business they are not | prepared to answer. | The Consul has gone from us and he has gone alone. His family are nest- ling peacefully in the bhoSom of their and unperturbed home. With autiful assertive ignorance of the lo- | ty of the master of the family, chil- n and wife are sequestered in belll- ) San Francisco. They have im- | bibed so freely of the blessings of peace | that the fact of the patriarch’s depart- ure or the possibility of an immedtate |, return troubles them but little.

It was during the last half of the sec- ond inning of the national game on the California League grounds,and Fresno was in the throes of wiping out the lead of one run held by San Fran- cisco, when the roll of a drum rattled through the grand stand, followed by the dear old strains of “Yankee Doodle.” A moment later a band, preceded by President McPike and Colonel T. P. Robinson of the league, marched into the grounds. Hayes was at bat and Tawney was in the act of deliverin; the ball, but stoppes with his arm drawn back and stood mo- tionless for a mo- ment, and then a cheer burst forth from players and spectators.

The Reliance Club Wheelmen held a most successful road race over the San Leandro triangle yesterday morning. The distance was ten miles and the race was the first of the regular club try-outs for the purpose of selecting team men for the great relay race of next month. The triangle course is one seldom used, but always popular with wheeling en- thusiasts, inasmuch as it permits of the riders being seen when but two miles under way and again at the all-important finish, Vs Twenty-three riders faced Starter Wil- liam Pettis at the start. H. M. Platt, with a lead of seven minutes, plugged away at a steady pace and finished In first place, twenty-five yards or more in front of a speedy bunch of three-minute men. W. Valentine, with a handicap of two minutes and a half, captured first time prize, riding the distance in 27:48. ‘ | Deacon and yman won second and third time prizes, respecuvell‘y. A. Brogi, V. Ligda and F. Jurgewitz sustained falls, the two former being thrown out of the race. T. Hoag also fell, but after crossing the tape. 'he summary: follows: Net CONTESTANT. Time. . M.

There was a hush of expectancy while President McPike straightened out the halyards, which was broken by the na- tional anthem, while a_colorless bundle shot up to the peak. Half way up the breeze caught its folds, shaking them.out, and the shapeless mass was transformed into the glorious stars and stripes. Instinctively each ball-player grabbed his cap and stood with bowed head, while pandemonium broke loose in_the grand stand and on the bleachers. Men, women and children sprang to their feet s though electrified, hats and handker- chiefs were waved frantically, while the cheers were almost deafening. The band changed to the ‘“‘Star-spangled Banner,” when the flag floated at the peak, while the crowd continued to cheer. The incident lasted hardly five minutes, but it was enough to give ample evi- dence of the spirit of patriotism that ani- mates every person who lives beneath the folds ot the flag. Both teams started the game with a vigor that promised an exhilarating con- test, and the flag-raising_ episode only increased their pace. The game was played in an hour and twenty-five minutes, and while there were some holes in it, the excitement continued until the last man was out. Fresno's Eastern battery arrived just in time to come up with the team, and although Towney was in the box his lack of condition was very evident. He proved, however, that he has great speed and good control of the ball, and had it not been for the sixth inning, where the locals bunched on him, he would have gone home with a big credit mark, Snyder, his receiver, did not feel equai to going behind the bat, so he played second, while Henry, a diminutive chap with a wonderful “throwing arm, was made receiver-general. The others were lively on their feet and swatted the ball hard, but were unfortunate in placing it out of reach of their opponents. The local men were aided and abetted by chance to a considerable extent, and proof that they have something to learn yet about team work, but Manager Bunker is going to give them large doses of practice from now on, and will soon have them in shape. Hughy Smith, he of the famous old ioneers, made’ his debut as an_umpire, having just been appointed to the staff, and gave generul satisfaction. He was called upon to render several difficult decisions, which he did with excellent judgment and Impartiality. He is giving every promise of ranking with McDonald and Sheridan when he becomes thor- oughly familiar with his position. kresno was first up and started right to work. Brittan fanned, but Ferguson made the circuit on a missed third strike, the ball rolling through a knothole in the bflcksto[L Snyder was given his base and Held (not Anna) laced out a single to left. Snyder tried to reach third, but was headed off and retired in trying to get back to second. Courtney drove out a double, sending Held home, bus Mc- Laughlin struck out. Frisco scored one in the second. With one out and Lee on first, Stroecker plant- ed a single in left and Lee was caught at third. Stroecker stole second and scored on a high throw to nail him at third. The score was evened up in the third, when Murphy reached first on a fumble by Snyder. Krug bunted the ball to third and was retired at first. Murphy was headed for third by that time, and Held threw high to cut him off, allowing him to_score The Tigers took the lead again in the fourth, Held being hit by a pitched ball, golng to third on Courtney's second ouble and making a daring steal home on a short passed ball. Then came the disastrous sixth, when Frisco won out. K. Krug started the trouble with a single to left. Hearty hit to McLaughlin, and went to second on the latter's low throw to first, both run- ners scoring on Kelly’s long single to center. Lee’'s questionable double to center, which looked to some as though Donahue misjudged the ball, sent Kelly home, and Lee followed him a moment later on Stroecker's two-cushion shot. Tawney steadied down then and further disaster was averted. The Tigers took another turn in the n hurst Velodrome yesterday was run in two heats and final.

The auburn- halred left-handed twirler from the cit- rus belt gave an exhibition of his ability yesterday that will long be remembered by the crowd that attended Central Park. His curves seemed a veritable Chinese puzzle to the Oaklands. Time and again a batter would step to the plate only to return to his seat crestfallen at the ludi- crous figure he cut while trying to con- nect with those wonderful shoots. Twelve men were retired on strikes and but five Athenians were able to connect safely. Sacramento might have won, however, with any other pitcher in the box, as the Qakland team played like so many school boys. Nearly every man on the team ‘was guilty of yellow flelding, ten large and roturnrd errors being the main cause of their defeat. How “Smiling”’ Mike Steffani can pitch for two nines without being released was a matter that puzzled many yesterday. Mike has, since the opening of the season, cast his fortunes with the San Jose con- tingent, but in yesterday’'s game he twirled for Oakland as if his life depended on victory. Sad to relate his smile dis- appeared when the hard hitting crowd that composes the Capital City team got to work. Aided by three bases on ba..s, twelve hits and ten errors they landed nine runs. Home runs, three baggers, two cushions and singles were tapped off at will, but Steffani stayed it out, gainin some conso.wuon by hitting Dennei an& Hughes. Stanley Is a prize for any nine and the Sacramentos are fortunate in possessing him. His work behind the bat is worth watching. The support he gave Harvey enabled the latter to toy with the Oak- landers. Following is the score: Oakland— O'Kane, 1 b & 2 Hammond, c.. Krug, s. 8. & 1. . Pyne, c. f... Eagan, 2 b & . 8.

The third week of the California League sea- son finds the San Francisco team in the lead by one game more to its credit than Stockton and Sacramento. Oakland has lost three bit- terly fought contests, and is in the second division with San Jose and Fresno, but it will be at home now for a time, while San Fran- cisco will do_the visiting. San Jose has been even worse off, in having played all its games abroad, and it will not open its home grounds until May 1. It can then be counted on to take its_place among thé leaders.
