The af- fair dragged its weary length through the full twenty rounds, when Referee Jack Kitchen awarded what little glory and morey was in the affair to the colored man. Gardner was a 4 to 10 choice in the betting before the fight and these odds seemed justified on some of his past per- formances. The men had hardly-put, up their hands when it was seen something was wrong with the fight. Gardner, who has unfortunately-. for himself recently acquired a reputation for faking, will find it difficult to explain away his showing of last night.. His ter- rible body punches, which it was thought no armor of muscle could withstand, ‘were conspicuous by their absence. Those he tried for were either with the open glove or-glanced off to one side.without damage to Johnson. After they had boxed a part of the first round it was seen Gardner let up and his work was of the rawest Kind after that. He clinched repeatedly to save himself and hung on in a manner that would | 2dd but little luster to his title of cham- | plon. He seemed content with lasting out the twenty rounds without trying to win. This ends his usefulness on this coast as & drawing card. No manager would have the hardihood to fly in the face of public opinion and match him. | "It was a case of “too much Johnson” to the spectattrs from the start. It seemed possible at any stage of the game for the colored man 1o get in and win. He proved LADIES APPEAR IN MINSTRELSY Native Daughters Give | Entertainment for Worthy Cause. | | | The Alhambra Theater was crowded last night by an audience that thoroughly | enjoyed the minstrel performance given by the Native Daughters In aid of their home and hospital. Miss Annie Worth, dressed in black, acted as interlocutor.~ The soloists were in white face and wore white, while the | end ladies, three tambos and three bones, * | wore short green skirts and Eton jackets | trimmed with cherry. In the rear of the stage was a chorus of thirty volces. Local and political hits characterized the talks between the interlocutor and end ladies.

He was laughing throughout and only lost his temper on occasions - when Gardner - hit in t’he clinches. All this time Gardner’s friends were still betting that he would win, when it w: a foregone conclusion he would not. the last two rounds Johnson commen to look serious. Some close observers thought he had agreed to. go..out and finding Gardner so easy decided to give somebody the doublé cross. Several times during the fight the men seemed to be fighting -desperately, but those at the ringside could see that neither was inflicting any punishment. It was the consensus of cpinion that had Johnson cut’ loose and followed up - hh! man he could have inished him in 'aj round or two. Whenever he had Gardner in distress he drew away-.and gave him ample time to recover. The spectators were quick to see all this and jeered and hoted. the.boxers round after roun: After proceedings. opened Johnson' was seen to have an excellent defense and was able to - land rea’ily.’ Throughout the fight he . jabbed with his left, * sending Gardner’s head back-with a snap..

In the eighth round Johnson dazed Gardner, sending him to his knees. Gard- ner hung on and seemed.on the verge of going out when the bell rang. In the thirteenth Gardner was again in distress, but his opponent did not fol~ low up his advantage. In the next round this was repeated, Gardner being sent to BALL PLAYERS' SERVICES WILL BE IN DEMAND Qakland Team Will Probably Lose All Its Stars Next Season. OW that the pennant race of the California Baseball League for the present season has been decided the general topic of conversation among the followers of the national pastime will | be as to the make-up of the teams for next season. It is a trifle early to dis- cuss the question yet, but the managers of the teams, realizing that high-grade talent will be at a premium next season, are quietly working to round up a bunch of likely players. ‘Whenever a team wins a _championship fight, especially in a minor league, 1ts members are sure to get all kinds of flat- tering offers from the big 'cagues. This generally means disruption. Such was the case with San Francisco last season; and it appears Oakland will be handed the same kind of a package. McCreedie and Schmidt will perform in Brooklyn next season. Kid Mohler, the wonderful second baseman, has decided to return to Denver, where he formerly worked. Julie Streib has had offers from the Chicago Nationals, while several of the big league magnates are making overtures to Jack Walters. In all prob- ability these five, the stars of the Oak- land team, will perform elsewhere next season, and it is extremely doubtful if Uncle Peter can ever fill their places. The fans are much surprised at Mohler's action, as‘he seemed to like this part of the country immensely. When Mohler goes the California League loses the greatest second baseman is has ever known. Then there is Buck Francks, the pre- mier shortstop of the league. Buck has not accepted any terms for next season, but he is sure to get offers in plenty from the two major leagues. It is a safe bet Francks will not play ba!l in Califor- nia next season. Morley, Harris and Fisher announce they will retain most of their players. Of course, no contracts have been signed yet, and it is hard to say just what a ball player will not do for more money. In fact, the managers will not know ex- actly who will toss the sphere for them till a month before the 1903 season is ush- ered in. Hall, the husky young novice on Mor- ley's pitching staff, has copied Oscar Jones’ style of delivery. He imitates the little fellow's motions in fairly good form. It is easy to see that Jones has taken the youngster under his charge and is handing him a few on how to toss up the sphere. Judging by the way Morley is playing Cristall in the outfield it begins to look as though the former Oakland south- paw will be transformed into an out- fielder. This is a good idea, for Cristall is too valuabie a batter to spend his time in the pitcher’s box. Raymer has rejoined the Angel band now that their hopes of winning the flag are gone. When Morley needed the big second baseman he quietly took to the tall brush, which goes to show that there are other erratic ball tossers besides Rube Waddell. Pat Meany is hitting the ball as hard as ever. If Pat only keeps right his ser- vices will surely be at a premium next year. —_———— Official Warns the Fighters. WATERBURY, Conn., Oct. 3L.—In re- sponse to complaints from clergymen and other citizens regarding the proposed match between Young Corbett and Austin Rice on November 6, John P. Kellogg, Assistant State Attorney, to-day sent a letter to the manager of the match, warn- ing him that any violation of the law against prizefighting will be immediately met with the arrest and punishment of any one concerned. e e Ryan Wins on Points. CHICAGO, Oct. 3L.—Buddy Ryan of Chicago won the decision over Kid Broad of Cleveland in a six-round contest here to-night.

Johnson put on the brakes as usual in the. eighteenth round, after sending a damaging right and left to the head. There was some bustling work in the last two rounds, but it was all for effect, with open gloves, and no damage re- sulted.

At the end of. the third round Long was on the floor, the gong saving him. In the last round Barry gave 'him no rest and he finally jabbed all the fight out of him. Long finally fell' from exhaustion. A straight right to the jaw ended the fight between Henry Lewis and Dixie Kid unexpectedly in the eleventh round. The Kid landed the blow which did the damage. The fight was an exciting and an even one from the start, For two rounds they took matters easy and then engaged in an old-fashioned slugging match. by, 5 In the fourth round Dixie Kid just missed some ‘wild swings. In the fifth the Kid beat a tattoo on Lewis' body and took a lot of the fight out of him. In the sixth Lewis secured a lead by some straight jabbing which left the Kid in distress. The Kid then came back strong- ly and soon had Lewis backing away. There was -some -hard slugging in the eleventh round, when the Kid landed the blow which ended proceedings suddeniy.

TAPACHULA, State of Chiapas, Mex., Oct. 31.—There is continued alarm here over the eruption of Santa Maria Moun- tain in Guatemala. For fifty-three hours the city was almost totally dark. Sur- rounding coffee planters have experienced great loss, and across the line in Guate- mala many valuable properties have been destroyed. Tacana volcano, near at hand, shows no signs of breaking out. There has been no loss of life. Thieves have taken advan- tage of the tem steal cattle from ranchers, On the coast the falling ashes covered the decks of ships in San Benito. Subter- ranean rumblings have been almost con- stant here. Telegraphic communication has been re-established with the Federal capital, and relief is being felt. Business is distressed. Ashes rell abundantly at Palenque. CITY OF MEXICO®, Oct. 31 — Tele- graphic communication has been restored with Tapachula, at the extreme south- ern corner of the State of Chiapas, near the volcano of Santa Maria, in Guate- mala. Midnight darkness prevailed there fifty-three hours, causing undescribable panic among the residents, who knelt in the streets and prayed for mercy. Earth- quakes caused the collapse of several houses. The German steamer Luxor at Port San Benito, Soconusco, was covered with ashes. The captain put to sea to escape danger. The darkness at noon was so complete that night signals were neces- sary. PARIS, Oct. 3L.—Professor Senger, the distinguished meteorologist, as the result of a profound study of recent voleanic eruptions in the Antilles, prophesies a se- ries of subterranean disasters for 1903. Dr. Senger believes that next yeat will witness the total disappearance of Mar- tinique and adjacent islands, and calls on France to adopt energetic measures to save the population instead of wasting time and money on geological missions. BOLD HOLD-UP OCCURS . IN GOLDEN GATE PARK Eugene Duffy Is Assaulted by Two Men and Relieved of $13 and a Watch. Eugene Duffy, a window cleaner, was treated at the Emergency Hospital late lzst night for a lacerated scalp and sev- eral bruises, which he received at the hands of two footpads, who held him up in Golden Gate Park. Duffy says he was robbed of §13 and a gold watch. According to Duffy’s story he met a woman at the corner of Howard and Langdon streets and had several drinks with her. Then they proceeded to Golden Gate Park, where the “hold-up” occurred. ‘While passing through atunnel near the conservatory two men suddenly attacked Duffy and beat him into unconsciousness. When he awoke his watch and money had disappeared. He went at once to the Emergency Hospital, and from there the case was reported to the police. Detec- tives Cody and Riordan were detailed on the case. Duffy says he is positive that the men who robbed him were confeder- ates of the woman. —_—— ~ Colored Girl Stabbed. C. H. Ward, a negro cook, who was discharged from the: training ship Inde- pendence about a week ago, was arrested last night by Policeman Joy and booked at the City Prison on the charge of as- sault with a deadly weapon. Ward is ac- cused of stabbing a negro girl named Dolly Kerwin in the left breast at a sa- loon at 433 Pacific street, known as the Never-Touched-Me. The girl was taken to the Harbor Hospital, where her wound was found to be superficial. Ward denies cutting the girl and says he was merely trying to lead her from the resort when he was set upon, and in the scuffie, he says, the wound was Inflicted by one of his assailants. —_—— Mrs. Mills Delivers Lecture. Mrs. Benjamin Fay Mills delivered a lecture last night before the Unity Club entitled “How Can We Know?” TS, Mills said that if we would learn the les- 'sons life held for us we must first of all compound definite and intelligent ques- tions and be willing to learn the truth, even though it may not be in accord with our previously determined opinions. We must, she said, have faith in the great, wise, beneficent purpose of life and must have faith in all its processes. Mrs. Mills continued, we must have faith Parlor Hall.

ESTERDAY'S quiet little baseball '! exhibition passed quickly along from round to round until the extra inning period was just reached. Then the fun broke up wjth a loud thud and the Angels landed second in the ‘running, 5 to/l. It looked, at first as though the men from over the pass would simply do a little runaway act witht the Ponies. But, as the game grew older, the local tossers began to look good and the ‘extra round was touted by the wise contingent long before it arrived. Mills twirled like a winner until the final disaster overtook him. Nick Wil- liams failed to make an encouraging start, but he began to grow better as the trouble grew interesting and capped the climax by batting in the runs which set- tled the difficulty. It was in the tenth when the package of disaster was floated and Toman started the float. Parrott - singled, Williams bunted to Reilly, who threw nicely to Toman to stop Parrott's career at second. The small man dropped-the ball and then Mills hit Phyle, who took the stick for Delmas and all stations were filled, with no one out. ‘Williams cracked out a first-class swat to center, which sent his namesake and Parrott over the jumps. He was out at second, but Shay dropped a ‘Texas Leaguer” into right, which was good for two bags. This scored Phyle. Shay then stole third and came in on Mills’ bad throw to third.

Both horse and Ketcham, who drove him, received an ovation from the large crowd present. Cresceus appeared shortly after 3 o’clock, and, after scoring twice, Ketcham nodded for the word. Accompanied by: & unner, Cresceus went to the quarter in 33. At the half - the timers hung out 1:06%. The three-quarters pole was passed in 1:39. Straightening out for the wire, Ketcham sent him along at a lively clip, the mile being reeled off in 2:10%. At the mile and a quarter Cresceus seemed to increase his speed. The pole was passed in 2:41% and the mile and a half in 3:13. The last three-quarters pole was passed in 3:46 and the two miles was covered in 4IT. Cresceus trotted the last mile faster than the first. Another brilliant performance was that of Prince Alert, who went against the pacing record for geldings - of 2:00%. Driven by Demarest, the horse moved away like clockwork, reaching the quar- ter in :29%, the half in :59, the three- quarters in 1:29%, and beating the former record by three-quarters of a second, the time for the mile being 2:00 flat.
