The Giants were not so fortupete, as they commenced too late. During the eighth spasm they hammered In three runs on four solid binglers. The downpour then arrived and the game went back to the seventh, the score standing then 9 to 4 in favor of Uncle's brigade. O'Brien, the young busher, mounted the slab for Uncie and pitched some good ball in spots. He also clouted the leather for a pair of fat hits. He was bumped rather hard at times and the good stick- work and fast flelding of the Seals helped him along. The Seals made their big play in the seventh: round. Aided by a couple of er- rors and bases on balls and flve singles they chased six men over the jumps. Up to that time the Giants were leading, 3 to 2, and looked to have the sign on the na- tives once again. But Califf did not have a thing in that fatal seventh, so it was a regular cakewalk for the Seals when once they officed up to his benders. Larry Schlafley got the only long hit of the game and it was a good long one at that, going over the right fleld fence, in the third inning, and scoring’ an extra run. The Glants’ infleld was full of kinks, six errors being éharged up against the combination. - The afterncon game was called on ac- count of a wet fleld.

Wright's game is similar to that of ex- | Champion Louis R. Freeman. Both are powerfully built men, with strong arms 1 vand wrists. Wright, like Freeman, uses a snappy sort of a wrist stroke. Many people, to watch Wright play, wonder at his success, but any one play- ing against him would soon find that his game, whatever else it is, is a winning one. Wright’s headwork is almost per- fect his long experience gives him a great advantage. The champion serves both balls with about the same speed. He has not a particularly swift service, but he places it well and follows in fast. -Wright and Tobin will play Murdock and Smith at the California Club courts, Scott and Bush streets, to-morrow aft- ernoon at 3 o'clock. If the courts are not dry at that time the match will be played tha first day thereafter that the weather permits. At the California Club and Park there put a mv to play. .-« Club N.

(00D HORSES ‘Down for Deecision the Coming Week at Oakland RADTKE A FAVORITE S There sfiould be some Interesting sport at Qakland this week, as an excellent pro- gramme is offered, including handicaps that will bring together the best horses in training. | On Wednesday the Eddie Jones handi- cap, with a value of $1000, will be decided. It is at one and a sixteenth miles for three-year-olds ‘and upward. There will be two handicaps Saturday. The Albert ig for two-vear-olds at six furlongs, while the $1000 Morello is for three-year-olds and upward at a mile and a furlong. Other handicaps’ during the week are the Med- dler on Tuesday and the Hanovér on Fri- day. President. Thomas H. Williams of New California Jockey Club is pleased at the first seven days’ racing. He remarked on Saturday that this will doubtless be the banner racing season in the history of the sport on the coast. It isn't go long ago that Teddy Robin- son, “who landed Lady Goodrich winner of the handicap on Saturday last by a nose,- knew more about the working of an .automobile than he did about piloting a thoroughbred. Billy Cotton's rider learned the blacksmith trade and until October, 1904, was in the employ of the the little Englishman always had a hanker- ing to become a jockey, and Cotton finally consented to give him a chance. With the opportunity afforded he has made remark- able progress. Radtke scored a hit with the crowds by his clever riding the first seven favorite. Jack Keene's rider is alert at the barrier and appears to be a good judge of pace. “Big Bill" Knapp has the same big following as of old. There is one fault with Knapp, and that is his lack of discretion in using the whip. necessary to beat a horse until welts as large as a plug hat are raised on his sides in order to make him use every pound of reserve force. The trouble of it all is that the horse pos- sesses more brains and common sense than the major portion of the people that ride, drive and train him, but he to them. Davis is displaying good form, but will be fortunate if he does not have one of his mounts disqualified ere long. | When it comes to a tight pineh in the contending horse into the paddock or the grandstand. McBride is another rider with the same weakness, of which fines and sus- pensions have failed to break him. ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.

OAKLAND, Nov. 19.—Rain and the biting cold winds this afternoon kept many devotees of assoclation football from witnessing a game at Freeman's Park that was one of the cleverest, in point of individual work. ever played | on this coast. The Independents of San Francisco won from the Eagles of Ala- meda by a score of.7 to 0, but the | poor showing of the losers was not due to poor playing on their part. With only ten men to kick against the rugged Independents the Eagles fought each inch of the ground with individual | plays that would have brought vietory had it not been for the excellent team work of .their opvonents. Fred Croll of Alameda was the hero of the game. Time and again When it seemed certain the Independents had the ball in the net, Croll almost miracu- lously prevented a score. Five times in the first half the ball passed himr and the Independents scored, but it was no fault of Croll's.
