It was the ¥irst game of the setond bal? of the season,” and naturally’ both managers were anxious to get it. So spxious were they that they infused some of their anxiety into the breasts of the tossers themselves. It was.eo stropg with them that .the nervous | strain turned several easy chances in- to errors and these plays changed the entire aspect of the fight. Both Whalen and Hughes put forth their best in an e2jeavor to be the big chief with the mansgement, They twirled thet kind of ball that figures | wbout & run’s game. Whalen started off Ifke & Igeer in & round, but aftet he pulled out of a bad hole.in the first ixming he bad the northern sluggers on’ his staf until the dast two immings: San Prancisco eased a run through in the second spasm. Cy Townsend rapped to the center field fence-for a three cushioner. He slumbered on the sack while Miller was being disposed of, short to first. It looked a trifle du- bious, but Anderson stole fn a scratchy one that barely.escaped Hall and o Cy was there with the tally. * | The game progressed rapidly till the eighth, when Seattle landed for. two. Mohler bgnged safely over third, but | Frisk forced him. Williame let go a short pop to left and as Hildebrand was dashing in after the ball he stub- bed his toe and just barely let the sphere get away from him. Frisk went 4 to third and Williams promptly stole second, both arriving when Smith »anged one out to left that Hildebrand owed to go through him this time. S: Francisco forged into the lead in their half of the eighth. Leahy beat out an infield hit and afrived when Waldron smashed the leather to e right field fence for three. Meany apped a warm one to° Mohler, but Iiall dropped the throw and Waldron arrived the play. Captain Irwin spoiled any fup that ght have been re hitting to Van Haltren, who bled Meany at second. With one gone in the.ninth, Wilson bingled to left gnd Hughes followed suit. Van Haltren drove a simple one at Anderson, who fumbiéd, and every e was safe. Mohler drew a four spot, forcing Wilson in, -and Hughes easily spiked the pan on a long fly to left field by Delehanty. Score: d ers Are to Take Part The management of the California Btate Falr will try an innovation this year by promoting in addition to the racing and other displays a horse show on an ambiticus scale. This will be eld in the Pavilion at Sacramento m August 33 to September 3. The affgir will be held under the rules of the Horse Show Assoclation of the Pa- cific Coast and of the State Agricul- tural Bociety. - 4 Richard Graham, who has been an efficient ringmaster at all the shows held here and in Burlingame, will have oh. of the show. He is thoroughly famfliar with all the details oconnected with such an affair. He has aiready la!d out the ring, which will be 68 feet by 17. This will have a foundation of sand, over which will be spread the customary tanbark. There are sixty classes listed, which should give all horse fanciers an op- | portunity to be represented. They also include contests in riding, driving and jumping for horses and ponies; riding towrnaments for both gentlemen and ladjes, riding and driving by profes- sionals, four-in-hand, tandem and uni- corn teams and other features that will be”varied from night to night, giving a new programme for each evening to keep the Interest alive to the last. It IN SEASHORE HANDICAP AT BRIGHTON Son of Hastings in a Stretch Duel With Hurst Park. Special Dispatch to The Call. BRIGHTON BEACH, July 26.—The Beashore handicap had four starters to-day, Including Lord of the Vale, Hurst Park, Major 'Daingerfield and Pentaur. A few days ago Lord of the Vale worked a mile and a quarter in 2:08 1-2 and this was generally known. The great question was as to whether he could run well over a heavy track. This is the reason Major Daingerfield was made favorite. Yet he ran last. The most surprising development in the Seashore handicap was the great speed of both Lord of the Vale and of Hurst Park. The first mile was run in 1:411-2 and this on a heavy track. Before the mile was covered Hurst Park was inclined to-go wide and did 80, coming up the center of the track apparently a sure winner, as Lord of the Vale was then half a length be- hind him. Suddenl Kelly began to use his whip freely on Lord of the Vale and under its influence he began to close fast on Hurst Park. The two . horses finished with half the width of the track dividing them, making it a difficult task to place the winner; but the judges promptly hung out Lord of the Vale's number. Pentaur was third and Major Daingerfield last, where he had been from the start. The | time, 2:07 4-5, for so heavy a track was considered good.

TACOMA, July 26.—The sight of the pennant for the first half of the season floating over the park put new life into the Tigers to-day and they played a splendid game, backing up Thomas well. The latter was at his best. Mayor Wright opened the game by pitching the first ball. Only two of Dugdale’s men saw third base, Shea being caught at the plate. Butler pitched well, but was found easy in the eighth, whken three runs came in on hits by Casey, Graham, Thomas, Doyle and McLaughlin.

Kirkpatrick for Return of Money Posted. “White Hat” Dan McCarty has re- pudiated a bet made with F. H. Jer- myn of Scranton, Pa.and is suing John C. Kirkpatrick for the recovery of $1000 placed with him as a forfeit on wager was made. According to the copy of the agreement attached to McCarty’s com- plaint filled yesterday in the Superior Court, Jermyn agreed to wager $2500 that McCarty’s sorrel mare, Lillian Palmer, would not make a record of 2:10 in a race on a public track dur- ing the year 1904. Both parties to the wager were to put up $1000 forfeit’ with' Kirkpatrick and the remdnlnx:ittlm was to be put up before the of July. McCarty alleges that on June 30 he repudiated the bet and demanded a return of his forfeit from Kirkpatrick, who declined to surrender the money. It is not re- lated in the complaint that “White Hat” lost faith in the mare's speed or that she met with any setback which would make it impossible for her to % thle ttn;t th :l:e h-dnset for her y in the me.

She defeated the five-time winner, Clifton Forge, by three lengths in the fast time of 1:13 8-5 for six fur- longs. Knapp was easing the filly up all through the last sixteenth. Had it not been for this she would have run the three-quarters in 1:13 flat. That she is by far the best filly in the West horsemen say there is no dispute. Some 80 so far as to say she is the superior West, not excepting McGee nor Eng- lish Lad, which she has defeated every time she met them. Tokalon was at the prohibitive odds of 7 to 20. She was well backed by the big bettors even at this price. The track ,was fast, the weather couldy and threatening and hot and the attendance exceptionally good, | many being drawn out by the promised appearance of the whirlwind, Tokalon.

RYAN AGAIN IN THE TOILS Tour Indictments Are Found Against the Big Turfman by St. Louis Grand Jury. ST. LOUIS, July 26.—New indict- ments have been found against John J. Ryan, operator of an alleged “get- rich-quick” race concern, and L. A. Gill, manager of the Arnold Company, by the Grand Jury, which has recently heard considerable evidence against the men in question. Ryan has been arrested. There are seven of the new indict- ments. Four are against Ryan, three charging grand larceny and one charging embezzlement, and three against Gill, two charging grand lar- ceny and one charging embezzlement. It is stated that the charges are similar to those returned some months ago and thrown out of court on a de- murrer. It was then held by the court that Ryan, the only defendant who was tried, was acting as trustee for the depositors and not subject to indictment for embezzlement.. When this ruling was made the cases against Gill and Arnold were discontinued. Since then Mr. Folk and his assisi Prince Brutus 107, ny |ants have been conducting a systemat- ic and thorough search of the statutes for a means by which an indictment could be drawn that would withstand the technical objections of the defense and they believe that they have found the way. e Alleged Burglar Caught.

McLaughlin, grand pres- ident, occupied the chair and Judge R. H. McNoble, past grand president, was the secretary. The representatives of the Native Daughters were informed that it was desired to have a representation of Mmembers of that dbrder at the St. Louls celebration and it was suggested that action be taken . along the line of carrying out the plan. It is said that the Fraternal Order of REagles will undoubtedly go to St. Louis in time to be at the fair on Admission day, and it is thought that if the three orders can secure a good representation of each arrangements can be made for several special trains to convey the excursion; The representatives of the several railroads were present and they were consulted as to rates, with the idea of securing a lower one than $67 for going and returning. That rate is now excursionists to the ‘was fully discussed, but no con- clusion was reached. The committee ‘will shortly send a circular to all the parlors to interest them in the matter. x| M AND M STAKES HANLON STILL STANLEY DILLON ON LONG END| PROVES SPEEDY Wagering on Coming Fight|Fulfills Predictions of Ad- Drops Point and Nelson’s Adherents Jump at Price —_— FACH BOXER IS READY Work at Training Quarters Consists of Easy Stunts on Road and in the Gym e The betting on the Hanlon-Nelson battle dropped a point last night. Early jin the evening the knowing ones were | willing té lay 10 to 8 that the pride of the city would get the man from Chi- cago. The Hanlon money began to gradually forced down to 10 to 7..These odds looked good to the Nelson men and many bets were made, but those who wanted to plunge on the native son held out for a better price. Down to weight and full of confl- dence Hanlon awalts the clang of the gong that will announce the onset of the fight between himself and Battling Nelson on Friday night. When he ! puts up his gloved hands In front of the rugged Scandinavian he will have behind him as advisers the veteran Billy Delaney, Frank McDonald, his | trainer, Fred Landers and probably a fourth assistant yet to be selected. Hanlon and his staff will leave Ala- meda on Friday afternoon between 2 and 4 o'clock and will come to this side of the bay. After weighing in at Morris Levy’s place, Eddie will go to his home for a few quiet hours and from there to the ringside. Eddie’s exercising yesterday was light and was taken more to avert monotony than with any purpose of bettering his condition, as Trainer Mc- Donald does not believe his ward could be put in finer fettle. In the morning Hanlon went out for a six-mile jog with Toby Irwin. In the afternoon he batted out fly balls and went through light gymnasium work. This consisted of bag punching, shadow sparring and rope jumping. Visitors who journeyed to Larkspur yesterday with the expectation of see- ing Battling Nelson were sadly disap- pointed as Trainer Murphy has in- structed Bagtling to take things easy until the night of the battle. A brisk walk in the morning and a half hour’s light work in the gymnasium consti- tuted his day’s work. In the afternoon Battling and his training mates took a dip at Escalle baths. On their return to camp, Nel- son was weighed in his street attire and tipped the beam at 134 pounds. He locks big and strong and feels con- fident that he will be declared winner on Friday nig! L ee——— STANFORD PARLOR DINES / NEW AND OLD OFFICERS Members of Number Seventy<Six Listen to Songs and Oratorical Efforts. Stanford Parlor No. 76, Native Sons of the Golden West, tendered a supper last night in a Pine-street restaurant to the officers who on the previous Tuesday were installed for the cur- rent term and to those who retired after having served for six months. There were in the dining-hall about one hundred and fifty members of the parlor and several invited guests. Carl Granz, the toastmaster, was flanked on each side at the head of the table by the new officers. Departing from the custom of waiting until the last course had been served before intro- ducing those who had been selected to respond to toasts and entertain with songs, the toastmaster called upon the selected ones betwen courses. Henry Lieb sang the “Stein Song,” the mem- bers joining in the chorus. Dick Lee sang the “Heidelberg Song,” after which J. J. Lerman responded to “‘Stanford Parlor,” and while lament- ing the fact that Stanford did not gain grand parlor honors in Vallejo, it had the proved satisfaction of knowing that many of the Ssate and city of- ficials are members of the parlor. Messrs. Dunn, Eckenroth and Hunt, members of the organization, favored with several trios. R. B. McMillan, a new member, responded in eloquent language to “Our Order.” Dr. W. H. Sieberst entertained with German spe- cialties and then told in dialect song of the several officers who are to rule Stanford during the next six months. Charles A. Sweigert responded to “Cal- ifornia.” Peter Weineger, “the lost brother,” who recently returned from A visit East, told of his wanderings and declared that there are “only two cities in the United States, New York and California.” District Deputy G. W. Ger- hard told of “old times in Toulumne,” and the party broke up after singing “In the Good Old Summer Time,” due next October. ————— CLEVER AMATEURS FILL THE ALCAZAR THEATER The students of a local School of Act- ing presented three clever ome-act sketches at the Alcazar Theater yester- day afternoon. There was an audience of admiring friends and many critical professionals. The students acquitted themselves well. The first sketch was by Martin V. Merle, entitled “The Prairie Judg- ment,” staged in a setting similar to the last act of “Soldiers of Fortune.” It was given by Nat Phillips, Lester Alden, Claude Nelson and Lawrence McKenna. This was by far the best and most uniformly acted play of the afternoon. “Mars Van,” a Virginia romance by Emma Sheridan Fry and Mrs. BE. G. Southerlan gave opportunity for clever work by Miss Margaret Iles as the pickaninny and Miss Marjorie Rambeau as Barbara. Gillmore ‘Walker’s rendering of Lieutenant Car- ter was marred by nervousness. Miss Tola Hawley and J. Ross Birchett com- pleted the cast. Hermann Suderman’s drama, “Fritz- chen,” was translated by Willlam J. Stack, who played the lead. He ac- quitted himself acceptably. The ver- satile work of Nat Phillips deserves especial mention, his portrayal of the ifather showing talent. Miss Ruby Ramdohr as the mother was accept- able in a hard part and Miss Aimee B;lxckl:(y was charming. The incidental characters were rendered b; Llewellyn and W.

BOSTON, July 26.—In the Long- wood Cricket Club's tennis tourma< ment the star match to-day was be- tween Malcolm Ward of Orange, J.. and A. E. Bell of California, and although the Eastern man won, his opponent gave him a stiff four-set bat- tie. Ward found it harder to meet his own kind of play (the net style) than the long back court game of his most familiar Eastern opponents. During the first set he could not get into his swing and was unsteady, with tha re- sult that Bell won, 9 to 7. Ward thea braced and won the next three sets and the match, although Bell pressed him hard repeatedly. Score, 7-9, 6-4, 6-2, 6-4. : —_—— Automobiles Reach Albany. ALBANY, N.
