A shattered window and a broken chan- delier are cvidences that a game of indoor baseball was played at the Olympic Club last night. If the ‘fans” who go to Recreation Park twice a week had seen the opening game of the club they would have weeped for joy. Such an exhibition has rarely been seen on this coast. The two teams played with a ball as large as the ones Admiral Dewey used memorable sea: fight, ana the juggled 1t as if they were doing a at a variety theater. There was enough kicking at the umpire's aecisions to make that much abused official wish he were elsewhere. The initial game was arranged by Cap- James and proved highly amusing and exciting to plavers and spectators | alike. Phil Wand and Arthur s. Stone chose sides, and sixteen members, attired turn |in costumes of every shade and desctip- | tion, were picked 1o play the game. | Wand's team was known as the “High- | balls” and Stone's aggregation played | under the euphonious title of ‘Lallapa- | loosas” and succeeded in scoring twenty-two runs to the ‘‘Highballs’ " six- teen. " Nine innings were plaved in one | hour and fifteen minutes, but the time | would have been much less if George | Knell, Officlal Scorer Joe Stapleton and “Jack” Gleason had not disputed over | the umpire’s decisions, ‘Handsome Kee- | gan” Monohan outshone the electric lights as a “twirler.” His arm gave out | in the fifth inning and he retired behina Some spectators thought Mono- han could catch cold better than he could | a ball, unless it was handed to him on a | tray.

The San Francisco delegation to the | convention to be held next week under thie call of the California State Association for the Storage of Flood Waters met last | evening at the Palace Hotel and made preliminary arrangements for the conven- | tlon. It was decided that the convention | should be called to order at 10:30 a. m. | next Tuesday, and that Mayor Phelan should deliver an address of welcome to the delegates. The following committee was named to arrange for the hall and | other preliminaries: President Thomas, | F. W. Dohrmann and T. C. Friedlander. A recommendation was also made that the | officers of the convention should consist of a president, two vice presidents and | two secretaries. i Incidentally the subject of the opposi- | tion of the delegates from Southern Cali- fornia_to the State plan was discussed, and President Thomas made some re- | marks. He said there were points in the National Irrigation Association's plan upon which the advocates of the State plan could agree. He believea that all | were agreed that it was advisable to get from the Government all that the Govern- ment_would give, but he reiterated that | the Government has no ownership of the | water in a stream, nor does it own the bed of the stream, and that all its right, late navigation between States and with foreign countries; also that if the Gov- ernment were to construct storage reser- voirs for the purpose of maintaining the levels of rivers there could be no help for irrigators from that source. The meeting was well attended. Chief Justice Beatty presided. The fact being recognized that there | will be many delegates at the convention who have not reached definite conclusions, it will_probably be advocated upon the | floor of the convention that a permanent organization shall be formed. F. W. Dohrmann is the chofce of the San Fran- cisco delegation for temporary chairman of the convention. ————————— CHRISTIAN CHURCH FESTIVAL. The congregation of the First Christian Church on Twelfth street has been en- oying a festival for the last two even- ings.

The festival closes to-night and the piece de resistance has been kept for that occasion. It is a cantata entitled the “King of the Land of Nod,” and will be participated in by the following: King of Land of Nod, D. H. Mauerhan; | Sandman and Jack o' Dreams (King's hench’ men), Waiter Beard and Loren Alexander; Dream Prince, Frank Hudspath; Dream Prin- Elsle Dunn; Lady Fortune, Frances Janu- Mother Goose, Ethel Sturges; Queen of | Doliles, Clara January: Goblin Can and Mus Hugh Forbes; Dream Goblin, Sam Nichols andard-bearer, Lincoln Miller: Pages, Dana | sodman and Harold Hanna: Six Little Sleepy | Heads.

T l SALOON-KEEPER MAY [ HAVE KILLED WIFE | Sergeant Brophy of the harbor police reported the death of Mrs. Alexander R.| Anderson to the Morgue, It is suspected | that the woman came to her death from | injuries received at the hands of her hus- band, and the police have caused the ar- rest of the latter. | Mrs. Anderson, the wife of a saloon keeper at 23 East street, died at her home Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Plymire, who had attended her for five days previous to death, signed a certificate that death was | the result of pneumonia. The body was sent \1; an undertaker's parlors and em- med. Yesterday three persons—Annie Larsen, who resides at the Clay-street House! Louis Strandberg of 4 Washington street and Charles Hawes of 9 Clay street—gave the police information that Anderson had beaten the woman in his saloon on No- vember 4. They claim to have witnessed the affair, and say that the injuries re- ceived by Mrs. Anderson caused her to | take to her bed on the following day. Last night Dr. Zabala could not perform an autopsy, owing to the fact that the | body had been embalmed. No marks of violence, however, were visible. Anderson was arrested and taken to the Central Station, where he will be held pending the | result of the inquest, which will be held | this morning. . e COURTED DEATH GN { FOUR OCCASIONS | 225 Harry Cronin, a tailor residing at Linden avenue, committed suicide yester- day by drinking carbolic acid.

Each time his life was saved by the prompt action of | the family physician. For the past few | days Cronin had been intoxicated and vesterday morning retired to his room, | where he was found dead a few hours afterward. As in the last case the cause | of Cronin’s (Yre\'lmm attempts to take his life was runkenness. Cronin was 41 vears of age. His body was taken to the Morgue. —_————— | MYSTERY SURROUNDS | DEATH OF A LABORER George Schendel, a laborer, who was taken to the City and County Hospital on October 21, suffering from several con- tusfons on the head and a fractured arm, | died at that institution yesterday. | Some mystery surrounds the cause of the man's death owing to contradictory | statements he made after reaching the hospital. Upon being received for treat- | ment Schendel stated that a barber named Foss had assaulted him on Hyde street. His dying statement varied from this, | inasmuch as it contained the information | that be had received his injuries by fall- | ing downstairs in a house at 635 Commer- cial street. The body was taken to the Morgue, and the police will make an in- vestigatfon. e o HAD A MUSICAL “JAG.” C. Seitz, a Kansas Soldier, Charged With Embezzling a Mandolin, _ 'Is Discharged. C. Seltz, formerly a member of the Hos- pital Corps. Twentieth Kansas Regiment, appeared before Judge Mogan yesterday on a charge of misdemeanor embezzle- ment. He was accused of borrowing a mandolin_from his landlady, Mrs. Kate Greene, 1532 Polk street. and pawning it. Seitz explained to the Judge that he borrowed the mandolin to play at a party, and he was treated so well for his ma- nipulation of the instrument that he got drunk and must have pawned it while in that condition. He promised to redeem it. and as Mrs. Greene refused to prose- cute, the case was dismissed. —_——— School Over a Saloon.
