Something more than the return of | the home team was on the boards at Recreation Park yesterday. It hap- pened in the form of a no run no hit game pitched by Barber, the latest ad- dition to the Harris corps of u\lrllng; talent. One Oaklander got as far as, third base in the first inning of the game. After that it was the same old tale of one, two, three. Score: San Francisco 1, Oakland 0.

His fast ball was a wonder and he had perfect con- trol of it all the time. When Schlafley walked in the first inning the umpire gave him a little the best of it and had the latter been a trifie more lenient Barber would have equaled the world’s record made by the great Cy Young a few months ago. Barber was accorded support of the real 100-proof quality. No one erred in fielding and Anderson robbed [Dr. Moskiman of a clean three-bagged by & remarkable catch in the second in- ning. Meany victimized the doctor out of a double with another fine stab dur- ng round five when he scooped up a red hot one that was coming at express speed and making right for the fence. Oakland erred twice and the first of these misplays gave San Francisco her n and the game. It all happened in the third. Barber was safe on Schila- | fiey’s fumble, but Waldron forced him | at second. Hildebrand laced a low | rakish boy out along the right field‘ line. The umpire said “fai- ball” and | maybe he was right, but it looked aw- fully close. Waldron tore over the sacks and reached the pan a fraction | of a second before Byrnes picked up | the ball that Ganley whipped in from | right field. FIELDING IS SNAPPY. After that there was no scoring. | Both teams played sharp, brilliant | baseball and nearly every ball was per- | fectly handled. Cooper twirled a mas- | terly game for Oakland, but he had | not quite enough of luck on his staff | to carry him through. San Francisco | pulled off four base hits and, strangely | enough, three of these were doubles. | Oakland was slightly crippled by the | loss of Buck Francks, who is suffering from a bad finger. He will probabiy be a bench ornament for several days at Jeast. Dunleavy, however, was back in the game again and made his pres- ence felt by robbing Tommy Leahy of & two-bag drive out to the left field in the seventh round. Tom Browne, the star base runner of bygone days and former idol of the fans at the old Haight-street grounds, eppeared here for the first time as a caller of balls and strikes. He worked like 2 man who knows the stunt and In every inning was right at the spot where the most important plav was being pulled off. The score: Ban Francisco— Onklang— LR H. P, ABR H.

The problem of ais- posing of this vast accumulation has, in the absence of any local paper plants been partially solved by its being con- sumed as fuel for the motive power used on the sugar planiations.

Whether it was because James R. Keene's Toboggan, who ran second to Irish Lad in the Metropolitan Handi- cap, was meeting horses very much inferior to those he met in that race jor in the Commonwealth handicap a few days ago, the fact remains that in no previous effort of this season has this son of Kingston been so free in his action and so full of running as he was to-day. He handled his 115 pounds with ridiculous ease. “His head in his breast” and able at any time, he ran away from Lord Badge, Sweet Alice | and others whom he was meeting. The result of the close finish between Gay Boy and Major Pelham in the Jamaica stake to-day was declared a | dead heat and the stake was divided. i | Major Pelham drew out on the far turn and looked every inch a winner until Gay Boy was seen overhauling him. The respective owners agreed to divide and both racers were offered for sale, but there were no bids. The starting to-day was the worst of the meeting. The steeplechase fur- nished its sensation when Thomas Hitchecock’s Terrible Terry, purchased ! by his present owner at Morris Park, fell at the first jump and was trampled upon by one or more of the horses He has a chance for his life.

At a special meeting last night the board of directors decided to begin the work of altering and renovating the clubrooms and refitting the gym- nasium at once. The directors have contemplated extensive improvements in the quarters of the club for some time, but the matter has been held in abeyance until the renewal of the lease was definitely settled. Now that this obstacle has been re- moved the work will be commenced immediately. At the meeting last night the directors voted to install new showers and baths and to refit the’ gymnasium with new apparatus and add hot an steam rooms to the equip- ment of the club. New plumbing will be installed throughout the building. It was at first suggested that the club be closed while the work was in pro- gress, but the directors decided that only the rooms where the work was actually going on should be closed. —_———— ‘When teeth lap over, can they be properly referred to as box-pleated?

If they meet with the favor of the yacht owners they will be offered by Collier as an amend- ment to the by-laws. N l It was also decided to send the LuuI Angeles Model Yacht Club a copy of I the local club’s racing rules with a view to holding an inter-club race in the future. Mr. Todd, an enthusiast, offered a directors’ cup to be raced for |on September 9.

Berlin has probably one of the most peculiar ornaments for a reading-room | that has ever been seen in a similar position in a civilized country. This is a gravestone which stands, large and massive, in one corner of a small room. It is not only a gravestone, but is in its legitimate position at the head of a grave. The history of its location in the house is interesting. It was not put up in the house, but the house was built around the stone. Its original position was in the burial grounds of the churchyard of St. Hedwig’s. —_———— Atlantic liners to the number of fifty have wireless telegraph apparatus to communicate with forty-eight land sta- tions.

He will punch the bag, jump the rope, | wrestle and box with his sparring| mates, Toby Irwin, Frank McDonald and Joe Angeli. The latter is getting himself in condition for a main event to be fought with Frank Rafael be- fore the Sequoia Club of Oakland on the 26th of this month. During the last three days Hanlon | has confined his exercising to road run- | ning, baseball and swimming. Yester- day he weighed 131 pounds, one pound above the weight called for in the ar- ticles of his coming contest with Bat- tling Nelson. Eddie intends to pursue a different system for making the weight Hanlon is but 19 years of age nndl at present tips the scales at less than he did a year ago. It was prophesied by some of the little fellow’s admirers that before he was 20 years of age he would have grown £o that it would be almost impossible for him to make 130 pounds and be strong, but thus far Hanlon has experienced no difficulty in loss of energy. Battling Nelson spent a quiet day at his training quarters at Larkspur. The | weather was extremely warm and| trainer Murphy advised Nelson to ease | up a bit, as he does not wish him to| reduce too quickly. Nelson, Ted Murphy and Dave Barry took a nine-mile jog in the morning. After working half an hour.in the gym, | in the early part of the afternoon all| hands proceeded to Escalle Baths, where the remainder of the day was| spent. Last evening Nelson invited a party | of friends for a 'bus ride to San Ra- fael. When near San Anselmo a bold highwayman waylaid the party and at the point of a six-shooter demanded money and jewelry. Dave Barry seemed to be the only moneyed man in the crowd and parted with a large sum and a handsome watch. This morning Barry’s property was returned to him, but he does not appreciate the joke. He accuses “Smiling” Mitzner of put- ting up the job, but the smiling one pleads mnot guilty. ————— ‘Western Club Election.
