Lucky Squirt In a Close
Came.

StOcktOn's Lucky Squirt In a Close
Game.
STOCKTON, August 19.-The Stockton
club won the game by a score of 6 to 5
in the last inning, after tie in the
eighth. Harper, pitcher, has his first
game for the home team, and outside of
a little wildness did very we'll, holding
the Pioneers down to seven singles. The
Pioneers scored one run in the second
inning on two bases on balls, two
singles and one error; two more
bases on balls in the third, one
single and two errors, gave them
four more runs, after which the Stocktons
played without an error, and prevented
any more runs being made. The Stock
tons on two singles in the second inning
scored one run. A triple by Sweeney
and singles by Moore and Stoekwell,
netted two runs in the third inning.
Sweeney scored the third run in
the seventh. A base on balls,
a single by O'Day and Hughey
Smiths error, gave them their fifth run
in the eighth inning. With two men
out in the ninth, Stockwell was given a
base on balls, and in stealing second
Carroll overthrow to Donahue, and be-
fore Purcell could field the ball, Stock
well scored, winning a run. Hurley's
fielding, O'Day's work at second and
Sweeney's hitting were the features of
the game.
HAyERLYS VS.. GREENWOOD & MORANS.
SAN FRANCISCO, August 19.-The Hav-
erlys and GREENWOOD & Morans crossed
bats in an interesting and closely con-
tested game to-day. Fully 1900 people
| were in attendance. There was some
excellent playing by members of both
teams and the game was one of the best
of the season. Frank Loughran occupied
the box for Oakland and pitched a superb
game. The Haverlys found it impossible
to seize his curves, and as a result
seven of them struck out, while
only three of them managed to hit the
ball safely. At times Loughran was
little wild in his delivery. Incell occu-
pied the box for the Haverlys, and his
work. although he was not as effective
as Loughran, was also good. He struck
out six men. Score: Haverlys 3, Green
hood & Morans 2.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Oak. ), August 49,
There was great commotion here yester.
day when it was learned that a large
band OF Sioux had gone to the Cheyenne
country on the Tongue river, in defiance
of the objections OF Agent Gallagher.
They claim to be going to sun dance,
but it is feared they have more serious
intentions. They have often threatened
to join the Cheyennes and murder the
unprotected whites along the Tongue and
Powder rivers. Col. Dudley. at Fort Cas-
ter, has been ordered to send out troops
to intercept them, and two companies OF
the First Cavalry started in pursuit this
afternoon. 1t is believed bloody battle
will be fought before the Sioux will be
taken back to their reservation.

FRANK MAEDER writes to Dunlap's
Stage Neus that 1.-The Troubadours, +"
who recently ran successful week here,
a few years ago entertained their
audiences in the old Merced Theater,
near the Pico House. The manager
goes on to draw comparison between
the adobe village of Los Angeles they
played in when they first came here, and
the great city they catered to in a palatial
theater during their past visit. He says
that meanwhile Los Angeles has be-
come a rich and populous city, better
known on the American continent out
side Of dozen leading cities of the land
and more-fve large newspapers, pub
lished daily, agreed that Miss
Nellie McHenry is one of America IS
foremost condolences, when only one
weekly paper, the only one then in
town, praised her when she appeared
but few years ago." This is compli-
mentary to the spirit OF progress that has
characterized our people, and is true.
with the exception of the one paper, and
that weekly, published here when Miss
Nellie first made her appearance. There
were two dailies published at that tim e,
as we'll as one or more exclusively week
lies. The dailies were the the Star and
the Neavs. Miss McHenry was always a
favorite here. Some ten years ago when
she with Gourlay appeared at Turnverein
Hall, she drew immense houses for a
long period in PATCHWORK and other such
roaring trifles.

CHICAGO, August ia dispatch from

Michener, who has been investigating
the "White Cap" outrages in the south

strong report to the Governor. To a re-
porter he said he had found things in
some localities worse than WAS antici-

been made public, simply because of
fear on the part of all
classes Of people that they might
be visited. Even the press of that sec

and published it's warning notices when
