Hannivan Gets a Homer With Three Men on Bases. T all happened in the second scene l of the tenth act of a little comedy drama written by one James Morley and entitled “Oh! What a Shame!” It was a measly shame, and for two reasons: Snowball McPartlin was as ag- gravating and as effective as ever, and Hannivan cleared the fence with a wal- lop when every base was decorated with an Angel. Still the southern land did | mot land in the limit and the Ponies packed off the bulky end of the 6 to § package. It was the strenuous articleffrom the drop of the hat. Several kinds of fancy ball were crowded into the struggle, in- cluding good pitching, rank errors and blood-curdling catches. It swayed from one side to the other, and both sides had sevetal chances to be it until the last batch of fireworks was exploded. All the fans and those who were not fans, but merely came to lamp around, agreed that they Had really Beamed upon the best game the season has so far offered the public. The Ponles became busy and ham- mered out two runs in the fourth. Then, Just to sustain interest and incidentally to make himself solid with Morley, Han- nivan hit it out of the lot while the southerners were lamenting on the bags because’two had been called out. The Ponies went to it again in the seventh, aided by two cushion punches by Nor- a and Leahy, and Hanlon's error of s easy pop fly. In the eighth both were made glad with another tally, and it was aces up ah around. The ninth was played without any balloons arising. Bobby McHale opened round ten for the locals with a | clean single past short. Bone sacrificed him as far as second;, and Nordyke's fourth hit put an end to all the fun and made Uncle Henry a happy man, for Mc- Hale was on the spot with the run which counted most. Lawler made a spectacular catch of Hanlon’s long drive in the eighth. The little chap did the turn with one mitt and robbed Hanlon of a two-bagger. It was really a mean thing to do, for Hanlon needs base hits as badly as some people need the money. Nordyke did some fine stunts with the ash. Out of five times at the stand he secured two doubles and as many singles. There might have been a different tale to tell had not Reilly and Hanlon made bad errors in tight places, but the crowd received all that was due and nobody had anything _disagreeable to say except Morley. /He felt sore and was not so much tofblame.

Holly had fifteen chances at short in yesterday’s game and accepted them all without an_error. 55 Rube_Waddell was asleep in the ninth when Josh Rellly hit one to the score- board. He could have captured it if he had started in time. Charley Rellly forced a man at third twice in yesterday’'s-game and each time reached second whilésthe other putout was being made. Jimmy Whalen got to first three times out of four trips to the bat, and made the circuit once. Charley Reiflly will not lead the league in batting much longer if he does not hurry up and get a hit. He has not made one in three games. Roach has a habit of letting out a loud yell every time a good one comes over the home plate. Nordyke made a great catch of Rellly's foul in the fourth. He got the ball in one mitt and balanced it until it was safe rasp. in)d‘:“ls’flgtflnp is not quite so slow as he used to be. Perhaps he would have won out had he been more deliberate. Jimmy Whalen is suffering from a se- vere sore throat, but nevertheless Mor- jey’'s men could not get to him very hard. glme may pitch for the Angels to-day.

TTIRED 1n their nattiest uni- forms, with their stars and but- tons and the brazen decorations on their belts and helmets bur- nished to the brightest hue, with their clubs polished and suspended at their sides, with their hands incased in soft white gloves apd with their shoes bearing the evidence of a recent visit to the bootblack, the members of the Police Department assembled yesterday after- noon at the various stations for annual inspection by Mayor Schmitz, Chief Witt- man and the Police Commissioners. Contrary to the custom established in former years, the officers did not parade in military fashion on Van Ness avenue, but eimply formed in line in the streets adjacent to the stations. This arrange- ment, although not spectacular, was pleasing to the men. After the inspection of the men the inspectors turned their at- tention to the prisons and the quarters of the officers. The policemen, without an exception, made a fine appearance and executed the few movements required of them with precision and promptness. Everything was found to be in good condition about the various prisons. MAYOR IS COMPLIMENTARY. The Mayor complimented the officers at the Central station on the neat manner in which everything was arranged about the rison and in the kitchen.

The The Central station force Lieutenant Lieutenant its Burnett, Donovan, men from the Harbor station were commanded by Captain Dunleavy, assisted by Sergeants Mooney, Ellis, Cook and’ Mahoney. The men from the Central station numbered one hundred, while the harbor contin- gent was fifty strong. The inspection at the Central station, as at the two other stations, was rather a pertunctoryaFer- formance. The inspectors merely walked past the men without pausing to examine their equinment or dress. After completing their work at the Cen- tral station the Mayor, Chief and Com- missionérs went to the Southern station, where the officers from the Southern, North End, O'Farrell-street and Stanyan- street stations were In line, under the command of Captain Spillane, aided by Lieutenant Birdsall, Lieutenant Esola, \acting Lieutenant Shea and Sergeant Coogan, who had charge of the mounted officers - from the park. At this station the same procedure as at the Central sta- tion was gone through by the inspectors. MEN FORM IN LINE. The men, 262 in number, with twenty officers, were in line on the Larkin street side of the City Hall. They presented a splendid appearance. All the equipment was In first-class condition, and person- ally the men looked as if they had ar- ranged their toilet for a pink tea. The tour of scrutiny was closed at the Seventeenth-street station, where the stalwart officers who guard the citizens of the Mission were, put through the paces. They were lined Up on Seventeenth street in front of their headquarters. They were under command of Acting Captain M. A. Anderson and Lieutenant Price. At the concluston of the inspection the Mayor and the Commissioners expressed them- selves as being pleased with the showing made by the Police Department.

Gate Receipts Are Too Small for the Gladi= ators. PIDER JOE WELCH and Tommy Gil- feather, who were billed tg box fif- teen rounds before the Reliance Club, Oakland, last night, “fluked™ at the last moment, much to the disgust of the club management and of the spec- tators. Welch and Gilfeather had agreed to fight for a certain percentage of the receipts. They broke their agreement because, as they said, the attendance was uot large enough to suit them. In announcing that Welch and Gile feather had violated their contract with the club, Superintendent Walter Fawcett said: “This is the first time in the four- teen years’ history of the Reliance Club that such a fluke has been perpetrated upon it and the management begs the ‘ndulgence of the club members and the general public. Welch and Gilfeather both came here and when the time came to enter the ring they refused to do so. We made several reasonable offers to them, but they believed they had the management in a hole. They were mis- taken, however, and their bluff failed to work."” Tommy Cleary and George Fuller con- sented to go on in place of the pair. Fuller won: by a knockout in the third round. In the preliminaries Dave Clay- ton put out Ed Williams in the second round, and Frank George knocked out Joe Nealing in the eighth round of a scheduled ten-round bout. CHOYNSKI DEFEATS WEINIG. Both Boxers Severely Punished in Six-Round Fight. LOUISVILLE, May 2.—Al Weinig of Buffalo was knocked out to-night by Joe Choynski of Chicago before the Empire Athletic Club in the sixthfround of one of the flercest bouts ever fought in this city. Both men were forced to take a cevere drubbing and Weinig's defeat was after a display of gameness rarely equaled in the prize ring. Twice in the sixth round he was knocked to his knees by Choynski's hard rights and lefts to the jaw, but each time he came up ready for more punishment. He was too dazed, however, to defend him- self and Choynski finally beat him down, landing him against the ropes unable to move. It was several minutes before he was able to rise and even then he was badly dazed, for when Choynski attempted to shake hands with him, Weinig squared off ready to continue fighting, unconscious that he had been counted out. Prior to the sixth round Weinig seemed to have the better of the bout and in the third round Welnig landed again and again on Choynski's face and jaw. Just before she end of the round he sent Choynski to his knees with a hard right to the jaw. Choynski seemed unable to rise, but the gong sounded just in time to save him. FIFTEEN ROUNDS TO DRAW. Charles Thurston and Mike Donovan Meet in Bakersfleld. BAKERSFIELD, May 2.—~Charles Thurston of San Francisco and Mike Donovan of New York fought fifteen rounds to a draw here to-night before the National Athletic Club. The fight was scheduled to go twenty rounds, but was cut to fifteen rounds on account of the limited audience.. The men fought fast from the start and the pace was of the whirlwind order throughout, with honors evenly divided in each round. The fight was conceded to be the clean- est and clevekgst that has taken place here for some time. The decision was well received by the audience. Two pre- liminaries of five and six rounds .re- spectively between local emateurs pre- ceded the main bout.
