Then Pfiester laid down a bunt and attempted to sacrifice the run- | ner. Reifily had the ball in a twinkling and whipped it down to Hall at second in time to retire the runner. Then Zearfoss forced Pfiester at second and again the ball was splenidly fielded by Hollingsworth. Buck Weaver came | up and varied the monotony by shooting out a fast one to left field. Zearfoss at the second statlon. A mo- | ment later the mighty Marshall picked out | a pretty one and away it went over the right field fence for a two-bagger and the lone taily was registered by Zearfoss. The sole credit for the home team’'s vic- tory is due to the grand work in the box by the left-hander, Pfiester. He pitched ball that would have won him barrels of glory on any diamond. Whenever Charley Reilly did engineer any of his followers to the bases the southpaw was as steady as a rock and they never got far on the paths. Thatcher also deserves a wad of credit for the way he handled himself through- out the long fight. At times he was hit freely, but this did not effect the young gentleman in the least. He stayed with it all the time and pitched the real arti- cle of ball till the end. The way Thatcher was supported had a whole lot to do with keeping more runs from coming over the rubber. Every man on the team was playing the game of his life and none of them could have done better in the way of supporting a pitcher. Had it not been for Marshall's lucky drive they would probably be at it yet. The Southerners saved one more run in the sixth. Perham beat out a bunt and Stovall's out put him at second. Then Houtz placed a hit out to center and Fer- ham began a wild dash in the directfon of the rubber. Jack Walters was there with one of those old-time throws of his and the runner was nabbed a foot away from the plate. The score: San Francisco— Los Angeles— AR H.P. A A.R. H. P.

There was the usual midweek gather- ing to see the play ana the trend of the game was pleasing to the crowd, which likes to see an even division of victorles, and of course the backward Oaklanders were favorites.

Baxter's quick- ness in handling throws to head off steals | has resulted in the accomplishment of putouts that would not be scored by a less agile or less competent man. In the midway Johnson’s record of vesterday furnishes an illustration of his cleverness at the post deserted by Fillman. Cutter put all of his speed into his work, but the faster he sent the straight ones over the plate the better the bat- ters seemed to like them, and in the late | innings the popping of safe shots made merry music for the rooters from across the bay. Murdock especially found Cut- ter easy and twice lined out two-sackers. In the first for Sacramento Hlldebrand hit for a couple of bases, took third on McLaughlin’s out and scored on Town- send’s single. For Oakland in the fourth O'Hara sin- gled, went to second when Casey erred on Brashear's grounder and scored on Murdock’s safely. In the sixth Murdock smashed the ball to left field for a cou- ple of cushions and came in when Casey siipped and fell trying to handle Baxter's hit.

Chinatown Guides Lennon and Hersey gettled a peciliar dispute with blows the Chinese theater on Jacksor last night and one man left the sc of a surgeon, while the search talk of arrests the air. The altercation ecreated quite a commotion and the police were called upon to stay a mob of frightened who started to rush from the place, fearing that serious trouble might result. Wong Wing Gouk Is the official inter- preter for the theater. He is a dapper lad and boasts of a college education, and thereby hahgs the tale. The collegs was an American one, to which he was sent at an early age by his mother, and most of the guides, including Lennon, claim that Kouk's knowledge of the Chi- nese language was obliterated in the adu- cational training and that he does not even know what the actors are talking about. Consequently, they say, he is un qualified in the matter of explaining th plays to tourists. Hersey still pins his faith in the inte preter and last night called upon him to explain the intricate acts to a party he was escorting. Lennon came in with an other string of people gnd the two guides had words. Lennon went out first, Her- sey foilowing, and after a time both re- turned and continued their quarrel at the entrance to the showhouse. Doorkeeper Willlam Thompson says he was startled at the sound of a blow, and turning, saw Hersey stagger backward with an ugly wound on his face. The fight raged flercely for a moment and then the com- batants were separated and started off in opposite directions. Meantime the Chiness spectators scrambled for the door to escape probable harm. Lennon says that Hersey flashed a revolver and claims that he has several witnesses to the act. He says he acted in self-defense. Hersey sought the services of a physician and had his face treated Tacoma Nine Secures New Men. SPOKANE, May 6.—The Tagoma Tigers have secured two new men from Du dale’s Seattle team.
