McCreed'e | 7 Fighiing Hard for Fir t| Place /mong -the Batters HE world of fandom will have to seek another subject to talk about now that the race for supremacy in the California Baseball League has been run to a standstill. OaKland will soon be crowned with the emblem of victory. Although six weeks of the season remains to be played the championship is settled beyond a doubt. Los Angeles is again out of 'the runm- ning and in a tame manner, though a few weeks ago the southern team: looked !ike a dark horse. Morley’s men fought like heroes for two months when they Lit the toboggan. Since then theéir finish could - easily. be distinguished. The target bearing Senators whom' no one sfemed to fear are the lads who alone put the Angels out of the running.-Mor- ley figured on taking a handsome major- ity of his games with the capital city ers, but what an awakening for the fans of the southland when they were handed nine -straight by the outcasts of the league! This dope all goes to show the uncer- tainty of baseball. Mike Fisher started with a weak team, but kept strengthen- ing from time to time and.the wise babies wondered why. This recruiting on the part of the Sacramenio manager was an unneces pense, but his team proved one big milestong in' Morley’s path and put the southerner on the run until he threw up both hands and went out. The rainy weather seems to have land- ed for keeps and is liable to play a few tricks with the ball tossers. However, this league is fortunate in having’ receiv- ed a square deal from the weather man. Only five games have been postponed so far. The first two were at Oakland dur- ing the early portion of the season and Wednesday's, Thursday’s and Friday's mes make up the balance. it i= possible Jimmy Byrnes, the young- ster whom Harris tried out, will be wear- ing Oakiand clothes next' season. The voungster is a good looker in the eyes of Pete Lohman and ‘he will probably be signed by the veteran. If the boy has anything good in him Pete will develop it. rnes should certainly make a star ackstop with a little coaching. Burns, the Pony second baseman, has proved the find of the year to the lbcal | club and yet the amiable young man was entirely overlooked by the press. His coming was not heralded by any grand fiourish and up to two weeks ago he was hardly noticed. This is only one of the many instances where virtue is handed the double cross. The batting in the league this year will be a trifie higher than last season, from present indications. Meany, course, has a big lead over the rest of the top- notchers, but he can hardly be included, as he has not taken part in enough games to give him a standing. The real race will be between Houise- holder and McCreedie. The former has a lead of a few points, but the “Judge” is recovering from his long illness and will probably beat = the southern club swinger in the long run. There is no question about McCreedie's ability as a great batsman. He is the peer of any man seen in the California League for a long time. He is a perfect place hitter and the fielders are always in 2 quandary when he goes to the bat. Housebolder is a slugger and makes most of his hits on terrific drives to the fences or through the infield. Walters is another man whose hitting ability counts a few. At present he is the most dangerous batter on the Oak- land team, as he places the ball to every corner of the lot. He made a bad start this year and illness interfered to a great extent with his average. If Walters were 1ight all season he would be comfort- ably above the .300 mark, instead of hov- ering around the vicinity of 250, Schmidt, who outfanks all the. curve tists in local society, has suffered more the league. He should have won the last twelve games he pitched, but instead lost about half of them through ragged sup- port. The smiling pitcher would have a record all to himself if he received the backing accorded little Hodson all sea- son. The rumor is tipped along the line of fandom that Oscar Graham, the Omaha soutkpaw, will be among the Oakland twirlers next year. . Lohman has made a good choice, for the blonde left winger has shown the fans he can go a few with the club, as well as serve ‘em up to ‘the batters in a bewildering manner. e PONIES WIN AGAIN. Pitcher Jones Has an Off Day and Is Hit Freely. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 24.—Los Angeles suffered another defeat to-day at thehands of the Ponies. In two disastrousinningsthe visitors hit Jones freely and scored five runs. Although the locass were credited with more hits than the northern team, they were unable to overcome the lead and finished the game with but three runs to thefr credit. .Oscar Jones had an off day and was hit freely at critical times, His support was ragged.

From a position in the gallery *wid de gang” we had heard Patti and cther great singers warble in every known tongue, but to be assigned to criticize an opera fairly threw us in-a condition bordering on delirium tremens. Yet such was our fate. When the city editor said heé wanted us to dress as so- ciety swells and report “King Dodo” at the Columbia we were inclined to believe that he was handing out a josh. We had beén up against all kinds of tall stunts—frome copping evidence to in- sure its exclusive publication to breaking into houses in the guise of gas inspectors —but this was a new one on us. reporters -detailed to do an opera! The situation might have lost some of its tragedy had not full dress paraphernalia and front séats been specified in the con- t t. “It - goes,” said the -city editor. ‘“You fellows slide out now, get rigged out gomewhere and grind out about 1800 words cn_what you cee.” We begged with the vehemence of bums standing in a police court dock, but we could not bunko the chief into send- ing ‘some other .unfortunate. We were reminded of the penalty of refusing a detail and as we would be down to cases should we lose that little $— per week, we agreed to step forward and do_the stunt regardless of the possible conse. quences. GATHER UP A RIG. To us of the plain clothes and North Side varieties, Tuxedo coats and King Liwdo shows- brought a sensation along our vertebraé much similar to that ex- perienced by the park loafer whose slumber is interrupted by fthe crack of the copper's club on what' were once shoes, ‘“Rememniber you are not going to do a cakewalk on Barbary Coast,” cautioned the city editor. “This—is a first-class theater and you can’t go there looking hike tramps. Every one else throws on the glad rags and you might as well break into the society graft now as ever.” One of us wore yellow shoes, the other’s feet were protected from the pavements by brogans, surrounded Ly an inch ter- race at the soles. “Don’t you wear those things,” said the manager, indicating the aforesaid articles. *The tints might not jibe. And that pas- sionately red neckwear that now encir- cles your throats might not look well with black. No striped shirts go either. Get white bosoms and ‘don't forget a couple of studs. You might pass through a crowd on your way up Market street and cop a couple of diamonds. They would-make a better flash.” ‘When we completed a list of what was needed we started out, not, however, Umpire—McDonald. Big Catch of Striped Bass. PETALUMA, Oct. 24.—William Steiger, Lyman Green and Captaln Fred Walker returned last night from the Petaluma Sportsman’s Club with thirty fine striped bass. The fish, dresséd, tipped the scales| at 180 pounds. They were caught in the record-breaking time of two hours in Petaluma Creek.

We must expiain that neither of us counted dress suits in our wardrove, and as we could Lorrow none from our acquaintances, ex- cept it be the man who peddled phony Jewelry on Kearny street, we decided to do the next best and visit some accommo- cating pawnbroker or the Coroner.

Perhaps the next house had the articles we re- quired, but the proprietor denied it. After sizing us up he remarked, “Going out to stick somebody up in the Western Addi- tion to-night?” Then he walked over and stood in front of the safe. That remark 2nd action made us feel our position more keenly. Our errand certainly did make us feel like sharpers or porch climbers. Then for a while those of whom we made inquiry concerning jthe rental of suits poked fun at us. Acting under di- rections we tramped between many ad- dresses, including ‘a butcher shop, an up- holstering establishment and an under- taking parlor. We were tempted to re- main at the latter place. We might know how to conduct ourselves in a shroud, but in full dress we were taking desper- ate chances, particularly if one of the i gang should happen along. Tt became much the case of the machinist's appren- tice, who is dispatched to fetch the left ‘handed monkey-wrench or the half-round squaré. - Our list of necessities had never included the word ‘‘dréss suit,” hence of its knowledge we were shy. Finally we were directed to a misfit -parlor on StocKton ‘street. It was with considerable uneasiness that we entered : the place and announced that we desired to Tent two Tuxedo ‘suits. As we had been ipstructed to spare no expense in making our debut as opera critics we concluded to select the cream of the mis- fit stock. After the proprietor and a corps of clerks had shown us a sufficient number ‘of suits to stock an ordinary clothing store we finally selected two that\we considerfd the teal things. OPERA HATS TABOOED. As we had been told that it would' be necessary to wear patent leather shoes and crush opera hats we made a requisi- tion for ‘the same. Unfortunately, there were only two pairs of patent leathers on the shelves. One pair was two sizes too large and the other was one size too small. We had no alternative and were forced to take the shoes. After trying on several varieties of opera hats, and, find- ing none to suit our esthetic tastes, we concluded to go without them. Neckties of a somber hue were given the places of the colored ones. we were wearing. Then we donned Inverness cloaks, ich the proprietor convinced us were the proper caper with dress suits, and we left feel- ing we were fit to enter the most exclu- sive circles. Scarcely had we rounded the corner of Ellis._street when one of us discovered that his patent leathers were not mates. hour of 8, and not It being close to having the price to buy the correct foot- gear, we started for the Columbia Theater.. While walking up Market street we imagined that every small boy we passed took us for two simple guys out on a lark. To add to our troubles a police officer, who sees us every day, not recog- nizing us in opera harness, followed us to he theater, thinking we were Kastern 0oks who were about to Yturn a trick.” He not satisfied that we were straight until Edwin Weil, advance agent for the show, met us at the door of the playhouse and bowed us in. FUN COMMENCES. Then the real fun commenced. A hand- some, richly gowned young woman mis- took one ‘of us fgr a soclety swell, and, extending her wved hand, asked how “Chawley” felt. Of course, ‘‘Chawley’ answered that he was in excellent spirits, which was a deliberate falsehood. She then spoke about some approaching so- We had | clety function and begged “Chawley” to ‘and win on her merits. Flora Zabelle, attend. He promised to be there provid- ing Le was not called to “New Yozk on business.” Just then “Chawley” uncon- sciously cast aside his mask by taking out a cigarette and asking the lady for a match. That settled it. The society bud screamed and would have swooned had not King Dodo’s brother caught her. The ushers were not yet wise to the game and when the managers of the show passed us our tickets on a silver tray courtesies came our way in large packages. We remained game and stepped inside. The commotion that fol- lowed caused every head to pivot in our direction. The ushers knocked down three children and tore out a support un- der the balcodly in a wild scramble to reach us and escort us to our seats. A high priest in a Chinese josshouse wasleft in the shade when it came to'kowtowing. Each insisted in outdoing the other in passing out the glad hand and they fairly deluged us with programmes, librettos, etc. While passing up the aisle glasses were fixed in our direction and exclama- tions of delight were heard at every hand. As in the foyer, we were mistaken for capitalists -and faces smiled recognition from the boxes and orchestra circle. Then we took our seats, and much .as we needed some ‘‘sweet ambrosia” to gargle our tonsils between acts, we did not stir during the entire performance. PLAY THE REAL THING. “King Dodo” is the real thing and de- serves the liberal patronage that it has received. The characters are well sus- tained, the costumes gorgeous and the seenery magnificent. Raymond Hitch- cock, as'King Dodo, acts the part with a finesse of a professional dice shaker hand- ling the bones. Greta Riley, as Queen Lil, ruler of the Spoopjus, is certainly a peach. She can travel in any company who is known as the pocket edition of Maxine Elliott, plays the part of Annette, daughter of Sancho, with the grace of a true artiste. Willlam Corliss, in the double role of Mudge, court historian, and Bonilla, Prime Minister to Queen Lil, was there: stronger than the - locks. Arthur Wooley made a decided hit as Dr. Pizz, the court physiclan. His wonderful powders, which make the old look young after one avplication, should be used by all who entertain serious intentions of shufling off this mortal coil. After one dose a wooden Indian walked to the cen- ter of the stage and faced the audience. ‘Wooley, before he leaves the city, will en- deavor to infuse life into the wooden In- dians that are’employed by Mose Gunst. Chief Wittman is seriously thinking of purchasing some of the powders in the hope of rejuvenating the older members COLLEGE CREW WILL RACE AN ALAMEDA FOUR University of California Men Are Trying to Up:uild Boatinz As a Pastime { Pacific Association Will Pass Upon a Protest Regard- ing Olympic Club Race A a “friendly ‘race this = aftérnoon against a four-oar of the University of California. The Berkeley .men will | row in their own boat and the Alameda men will pull in one of the barges of the Columbia Rowing Club, which is of the same type as the university boat. The race will he straightaway and the | distance will probably be one and a half miles. The start will be made at 3 p. m. on the upper ‘part of Oakland Creek, | the f{inish being off Sessions basin, where | the boathouses of the Columbia Rowing Club. and the University of California Boating Association are situated. There will also be some outrigged skiff races between meémbers of the university. Later | in the year races between crews rep- resentir'g the various classes at the uni- | versity will be arranged.

It is to be hoped Captain Rodehouse’s efforts may be attended with the success they de- | serve and that a boat race may become an annual event. On’ Monday evening the South End | Rowing Club will give an entertainment | and dance at Native Sons’ Hall for the benefit of ghe fund for removing the | boathouse fAom the foot of Third street to a new location. The entertainment will be given by members of the club, assist- ed by talented friends, and will consist of musical items and athletic contests. The annual high jinks preceding election day will be given at the clubhouse at the foot of Third strest on Sunday, Novem- ber 2. A good programme is being pr pared for the entertainment of the mem- bers apd their guests. A crew consisting of M. Berger, C. E. A. Creighton, Joe Lyons, J. O'Brien and E. Wolf of the South End Rowing Club pulled over from the boathouse at the foot of Third street to Tiburon cove last | Sunday to witness the jregatta of the Olympic Boat Club. T‘e)‘ had a good row on smooth water. In the regatta at Belvedere Frank B. Hooper of the junior Olympic crew pull- ed a lively stroke and swings straigh showing plain traces of the good coac ing of W. B. Goodwin, but either the crew was not strong enough or fell to pieces, for all it could do was to finish | fourth. - The Alameda crews rowed their usual heart-breaking stroke of 45 or 46, | but being thorougnly well together, made | good speed, though in the challenge cup | race the Olympic senior crew pressed | them hard. Fred Ayers, however, always had the race in hand and won cleverly by | half a length. At the second stroke S. MecDuffie, rowing No. 3 in the South End boat, cracked his oar, which snapped in ! two shortly after. The South End cap- tain appealed to Alex W. Pape, who was starter, to recall the boats, but this was not done. On behalf of the South End Rowing Club W. B. Goodwin filed a pro- test, which will come up before the re- gatta committee of the Pacific Athletic Association. It is said, however, that nothing in the rules of the Amateur Ath- letic Union requires a starter to recall a crew which has once started, no matter how early in the race an unavoidable mishap may befall it. —_—— FRANK ERNE IS HERE TO FIGHT JIMMIE BRITT | Ex-Champion Lightweight Is Anx- ious to Settle Down to Train- ing at Once. Frank Erne, the popular ex-champion lightweight boxer, arrived here yesterday accompanied by Frank Zimpfer, who has served him as” trainer for ten years. Erne is matched to fight Jimmie Britt before the Yosemite Club on November 28. The Buffalo boxer weighs 145 pounds at present, but anticipates no trouble in getting down to the stipulated 135 pounds. In his London built clothes he looks like a husky welter-weight. He will look up training quarters to-day and may decide to locate at the Beach Tavern. Al Hereford warned him against West- ern referees, but he says a Western man will suit him. Alex Greggains has at last made up the'| boxing card for this month for the San | Francisco Atheltic Club. George Gard- | ner and Jack Johnson will be the princi- pals in the main bout at Woodward's Pa- | vilion next Friday night. Gardner will| weigh 165 pounds to his colored oppo- nent’s 185. Johnson is already in condi- tion, as he is fresh from his victory over Frank Childs at Los Angeles.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—The National As- sociation of Baseball Leagues to-day ex- pelled Charles Frank, manager of the Memphis baseball, club. It was resolved that J. H. St. Vrain, manager of the Ta- coma club, for his action in refusing to abide. by the mandates of the national board and in permitting himself to be used by Charles Frank, be fined $100 and stand suspended until it be paid. The Memphis Park Association and Manager J. J. McCloskey, formerly of the Tacoma club, were censured for their actions in this case. A telegram was sent the of- ficials of the Memphis club informing them that if they did not expel Manager Charles Frank the protection granted them under the national agreement would be withdrawn. —_———— Smith Is Held for Burglary. John Smisth was held to answer before the Superior Court by Judge Conlan yes- terday on a charge of burglary. He en- tered the room of Clayton Brown, a sol- dier, at 1020 Maket street, on the the morning of the 13th inst, and stole a lady’'s gold. watch and chain. He was pursued by Brown and Policeman J. T.

The drill of the Amazons would hasten a bucolic stranger into a fit. The women, and there are a big bunch of them, ma- neuvered around the stage like a company ‘of regulars trying to amuse General Miles.
