Then the fans knew there would be do- ings. ry one was yelling when Wal- dron laid down another ninety-two caret He had it beaten out, but Blanken- ship picked up the leather and winged it so hard it went over to the bleechers, while both Hilde and the Kid tore all the | way through. Waldron pulled up at third. He had to walt but half a minute for Charley Irwin to eend him over with a pretty drive to left fleld. The finish was a wonder considering the way the Seals started. In the first round Jay Hughes was attacked by the jumps, jimmies and a few more. All he had was a smile and that froze soon. He let Wal- | ters open the game with a hit and ad- vanced him with a wild pitch. Kane bunted and Sears on first was so anxious to put the ball on the runner that he dropped it and let Waicers come in. Blankenship followed with a hit after Kane was thrown out trying to get away with a steal of second. Heitmuller waited for the bad ones and both men advanced on another wild heave by Hughes. Me- Gllvray was treated to a jolt in the slats, making it a full house. Mott's long fiy to center let Blankenship in with the last run Seattle could negotiate. The Siwashes began to bombard the of- ferings of Hughes agaln in the next in-, : ning, but did no good. The old Baltimore | star managed to find those lost shoots of his and his smoke returned with a little warming up. The Siwashes never figured to get a run after that, though they tried hard and did not overlook any chances. GOCHNAUR A HITTER. Vickers was there with the candy till the Seals began to office up to his assortment in the fatal eighth. Up to that time the best he allowed was three bingles.

The game was a close fight all the way through, with the Seals having a shade the best of the argument. Shea, the young Goat Island southpaw, tossed up a brand of real choice ones and the Slwashes never could transform them into hits when hits would have broken up the game. Oscar Jones was found in bunches at the right moment in the fourth and seventh periods. The score: SEATTLE. AR R BH. 8B. PO. A.

At the California Club courts Dr. No- ble and Daniel Volkmann met in the finals of the third class, which was commenced a week ago. The tennis was somewhat lacking in class, but was decidedly close and, for that rea- son, Interesting. Dr. Noble won the first two sets and looked to have the match won, but Volkmann played a great up-hill game and took the last three sets. The third and fourth sets were the closest and several times the loser almost won. Volkmann showed ®00d nerve, and the medical man could not win one of the last three sets. The score was 1-6, 4-6, 7-5, 6-4, 6-2. At the park several good practice matches were played. Charles Dunlap and Fred Adams, the Alameda County champions, made their first appearance since winning the tournament. They were taken into camp by Charles Foley and George Janes. The latter played better tennis than they have heretofore and the champions were beaten in straight sets. The score was 6-4, 6-4. Foley and Janes next took on Guy Lytton and George Baker and again when they could relax their efforts. For the losers R. M. Tobin and Cyril Tobin played remarkably well. To off W. S.

The game was so fast that oniy four of the customary six periods of ten min- utes were played. The ponles were more than their riders when the end came. Some of used by the players in the heat of the game, when some one cut them off, was reminiscent of the excitable Captain Neil Haig of the Hurlingham team. The game was unusually rough and the players often missed the ball owing to their great | anxiety to score. The Reds did not score their first goal until late in the second period. John Law- son ran the ball up the field and Mr. Car- | X Lawson | | | placed the bail again in the third period olan drove it between the posts. and Pcter Martin scored the goal.

There was a parade of the ponies on Saturday when some of owners, who are clever judges, may have decided the competition would prove too swift and that their ponles would best maintain their prestige by remaining in their stalls. It Is a pity the ponies did not pass before the critical eyes of the judges, as never before have there bee: 50 many of marked class at Burlingame. —_————————— FLY CASTERS COMPETE ON STOW LAKE WATERS Ardent Amglers Await the Time They Can Use Their Gaudy Lures on the Trout. The members of the San Francisco Fly Casting Club apparently scorn to g0 in quest of trout with any lure other than the flies made by John Benn or some equally famous artificer. Al- though the trout season is open, the members turned out in numbers for competition yesterday at Stow Lake. There was a close race for honors in the distance event between H. C. Golcher and J. B.

The fore- man of the Grand Jury, John E. Bran- nan, carried oft the trophy with his new model Ruth. Henry Petersen's Stella, by far the speediest boat last year, proved no match for the new flier. ‘Willlam Roeckner's Apache also par- ticipated, but failed to win any of the heats. Brannan's boat won the first, sccond and fourth heats, while the third went to the Stella. The Ruth not only won the cup, but also had the distinction of tying the || record.
