PONIES’ CHANCES An Uninteresti?g Contest Gozs to Oakiand Men by a Score of Eight to Four Cristall Sends Ball Over Right-Field Fence When Two Men Are on the Bags T is a long, sad, pitiful tale, the story of that balligame yesterday at Recrea- tion Park. It lasted about as long as two games and contained everything | except good basebail. The honorable Mr. Harry Kane, who toed the rubber for the locals, only gave ten bases on balls. The dust blew around in a charming manner and half the spec- | tators managed to éscape in the clouds, thinking it was a volcanic eruption which was going to rival the Martinique disas- ter. One-fourth of the remainder lay down behind the bar and went to sleep, and those who were brave enough to re- main wanted their money back. The initial explasion put the kibosh on the locals—not exactly the inning, but the remarkable faculty Kane developed for walking men when the sacks were filled to overtiowing.

McNichols scored for the Ponies in round one on a two-bagger, a sacrifice | and Nordyke's fly to right. They made arother in the third in exactly the same manner, and scored the last two in the sixth and seventh by means of some timely hitting. Oakland Jaid low until the ninth. They had several chances to pile up a few more | rups, but did not seem desirous of mak- ing the score too one-sided. Francks and { Lohman took a mean advantage of the | generous Kane and walked to first in the { ninth. Cristall had two strikes called on and then lifted the next one over farthest corner of the right fleld ferice for the longest and prettiest home run trip of the season. The contest was utterly without feature save for Kane's miserable exhibition of pitching. The Ponies outbatted Oakland by eleven hits to seven, but all the latter made were timely. The Ponies could hit in grand style when no one was on bases. Hoily punched out three hits out of four trips to the rubber, and McHale and Shugart made two each. Delmas saved Uncle Henry three runs and robbed Buck Francks of a two-cushion drive by cap- turing a hard fly to center in the second. There were three on the sacks and two gone at the time. The wind interfered with the work of the fielders to a certain extent and it was almost impossible to | capture fly balls. Oakland played an er- rorless game. The scor: SAN FRANCISCO. AB. R. BH. SB.

EDDING, May 16.—John L. Davie, former Mayor of Oakland, is now earning his living and saving his life by vigorously swinging a hoe and a pick on a ranch in the Ono hills, twenty miles west of Redding. He hoes long rows of potatoes beneath the May sun from dawn until dark, and for a change of occupation he is occasioi- ally allowed to take a pick and work for a while in the hard quartz rock of an adjacent mining claim. For six months he has put in every day, when the weather was not so bad as to absolutely forbid outdoor work, at the hardest kind of man- ual labor. On Saturday the man who attained fame as Oakland's executive had to work very hard all day in order to finish out the allotted number of potato rows for the week, but he found a little time to talk. Any resident of Oakland, used to seeing the familiar form of John L. Davie, .clad in dignified garments of the taflor's best workmanship, impressive of feature and polished of manner, would have been amazed upon drawing rein at the fleld fence to recognize this same man in the industrious laborer who was hoeing. the way for a generous crop of mealy tubers. Davie wore a blue flannel shirt tucked into blue overalls and the overalls tucked into high boots. He wore no hat and his sleeves were rolled up, exposing arms as brown as the manzanita berries. His face was tanned to almost the hue of an In- dan’s. EX-MAYOR TALKS OF CROPS. At the suggestion that his friends would like to see him at his task Mayor Davie replied: “Yes, no doubt they would enjoy it, and my Southern Pacific friends would one in the sixth inning on a base on balls and two hits. At no other stage of the game did they have a chance. The feature was Brans- field’s batting, which scored the first five runs for Pittsburg. Attendance, 2400.

However, I'm simply working for a good crop of hotatoes to send out over their lines. This is how my good friend Loeffler lets me earn my board.” Then the man who gave Oakland its first and famous ride to San Francisco for 5 cents told how he came to leave the city by the bay to its fate for half a year while he came to a remote spot in the Shasta hills to usurp an unskilled laborer’s job. Mr. Davie contracted a stubborn stom- ach trouble of a most pecullar kind. Everything that he ate changed to sugar in bis system. Even pretzels were sac- charine to him. His weight increased alarmingly and his girth expanded to forty-four inches. He breathed with dif- ficulty and slept scarcely at all. His nervous system and his mind felt the strain. At last his physician told him thgt salvation might be found in a rugged life in the open air, with hard work for his hands and complete rest for his mind. Otherwise he must die. - TOILS FOR TRUCK FARMER. In Bullychoop district in Western Shasta Davie owns some mining claims. -In visic- ing them he had met Gottlieb Loeffler, a hardy German truck farmer of the see- tion.. Loeffier had a comfortable home, livea a bachelor life alone ‘and had no neighbors. In ten days after the ulti- matum from the doctor John L. Davie was sharing Gottlieb Loeffler's quarters and his occupation. For six months he has worn_ neither coat nor hat and’ only storm and darkness have driven him in- side the house. He has become an ex- pert gardener and can swing the pick with any miner of the district.. He has grown horny fisted and tanned. He goes to bed at dark and rises before the sun.

In all this time Davie has not seen a newai)nper or received a letter except from his closest relatives. His friends are not allowed to know his address and no busi- mness matters can reach his ears. As Davie bent over his hoe the mark on the waistband of his overalls showed thirty-six inches, and they were fully two inches too large for him. In six months his girth has lost ten inches. FASN'T HEARD OF PING-PONG. “Since you do no reading you doubtless have other diversions. Perhaps you play ping-pong?” the visitor remarked. “Ping-pong! What in the world Is ping- pong?” Evidently he told the truth when he said he had not read the newspapers in six months. Mr. Davie was greatly interested to learn that Bret Harte and Admiral Samp- son were dead. He sald he had always admired the author of “The Outcasts of Poker Flat.” He believed Sampson had wronged Schley and hoped that Schley ‘would now get the full honors due him. “I have come to really love this sort of life I am forced to lead,” said the man who personally conducted the city’s cases against the Southern Pacific while he was ayor of Oakland. “It is so free and exhilarating and so close to nature. eat like a bear now and have fresh meat on_Sundays.” Davie was not sure that he was done with politics. “I may bob up serenely again some time. I got a lot of unpleasant newspaper no- toriety before, but The Call helped me very greatly in the people’s fight. Time may shift thin| around again.” And with that the bareheaded man looked again at his rows of potatoes, shouldered his hoe and strode off to eat the dinner of bacon and beans which Loeffler had prepared and then to wipe the dishes for the farmer. of California baseball team left this morn- ing for an extended tour of the northern cfties, where they will cross bats with a score or more of the crack teams of Ore- gon, Washington, Montana and British Ceclumbia.

The fight was held at Hazards' Pavilion under the management of the Century Club, which has been negotiating with Fitzsimmons for the championship fight. It was witnessed by a large crowd, estimated at 4000. The fight was uninteresting up to the knockout. Jack Jeffries showed up well in cleverness and footwork, but did not develop a damaging punch. The colored man, however, proved strong and used both right and left with effect. In the fifth round, while the men were sparring cautfously, Johnson forced Jef- fries Into a corner, and, feinting with his left, sent in a hard right to the neck be- . low the ear. Jeffries fell like a log. -After he had been counted out the cl plon carried his helpless brother from the ring. It was thought for a time Jeffries had sustained severe Injuries, but he soon came around. e 5 ere was a prelimin: tween Bill Woods and Jim Tremble, both of Los An. geles, which went twenty rounds and was declared a draw. It was not at all brutal. Champion Jeffries announced from the ring before the fight that he and Beb Fitzsimmo. s would fight in Los Angeles e:;’ly in July for the world’s champion-~ ship.

Measures were taken by the league to agitate the subject of registration and induce the great army of voters to reg- ister in time to vote at the primary elec- tion on August 12. Registration is now open at the main office in the City Hall, and as there is no rush for enrollment this is a good time to register.
