wild man for four cushions. The audi.
ence yelled itself hoarse with delight, and
Newbert bowed his thanks modestly.
Poor Frisco! Manager Finn souirmed
about uneasily on the bench. and
his players looked the picture of disgust.
The score, when Frisco went to the bat in
this inning, stood: Sacramento 7, San
Francisco l. 1t looked hopeless for them,
considering the amateurish game thew
were putting up.
But Just at this moment long, drawn
out, dismal howl came from the direction of
the special stand, and this was followed by
the appearance of Shea's dog.
a policeman chased him out. but IL was
too late. The 'Friscos had seen him, and
new hope buoyed their spirits. Donabua
TOOK hrst on balls, and on passed ball went
to third. Shea also was made present of
foot-hold on the initial bag, through
Zelglers inability TO put the bali over the
plate. Shea Immediately started for second
on the first pitched ball, and Mclaughlin
thought he could throw him out. 1t proved
to be costly thought, however, for Shea
landed safely on the bag, and Donahue
scored. Shea tailed on Leyy's single, and
then rest was taken.
Sacramento added one more to their
score in the sixth, but Frisco piled up three
more. 1t might have been a great deal
more than three had not Senator Gagus
stopped the fun by making grand three

ming high, both among the players and the
audience.
Only two more and we'll tie the score y:
yelled Captain Powers to his players.
They'll never catch us!' was Captain
Gagus' battle cry.
Both sides were desperate in the seventh.
Newbert, while at the bat, was hit by the
ball, and started off for first. He had not
made very marked effort to avoid the ball
and the crowd laughed good-naturedly at
the maneuver. Umpire Sheridan, how
ever, caught on and ordered Newbert back
to the plate, at the same time remarking

'FRTCO'S MASCOT.
IT BEATS SACRAMENTO OUT IN 4
TEN-INNING GAME. +.
One of the Most Exciting Contests of the
Seasonal Ten-Inning Game
at the Bay.

Frisco's Jonah has at last departed, and
the long string of defeats is broken.
But it was mighty close shave for the
visitors, and came within an ace of being
twelve straight.
Joe Shea picked up NANCY, once eyed
cur on the trip up from the Bay, and in it
he Immediately recognized a mascot. He
packed it on to the train, and, upon arriv-
ing at the ball ground yesterday afternoon,
babe the animal lie down in the shade of
the special stand, where the visiting play
ers might behold him and be inspired.
Well, the dog did it.
Goodenough was the first up for the Sac
ramentos, aud when he failed to rap out
the usual home-run on the first pitched
ball, the crapks in the grand stand ex-
changed apprehensiye glances, and hedged
on their bets. The home nine did not
score in the first, and Frisco made one in
their half of the inning. The experts
thought Zeigler was not up to his usual
mark. In the second, however, confidence
was restored by the making of two runs by
the home team and goose egg for the
visitors. Sacramento kept adding to her
score right along in each inning
up to and including the fifth inn
ing, while the other side kept duplicat-
ing its goose egg. Shea couldn't stop bal
loon; Hanley threw every ball over the
grand stand instead of to first; the whole
nine was more or less demoralized and it
looked like one of those old-time Jug
handled games, which the 'Frscos have
been INDUCING in of late. To add to their
discontinue in the fifth inning, Newbert
smashed the ball hard down against the
center field fence, and, grabbing his cap in
his hand, tore around the diamond like a

such good resolutions as are made on New
Years day and in religious conventions.
1t was resolution without the 81 that de-
livered those 1000 900 from King George,
and like resolution will deliver the Geo.
600 who are in the worse bondage of Sab
bethless toll to-day
Mr.. Crafts said that the postoffice service
was filled by an irreligio1s set. The De-
partment requires that no man having con-
scientious scruple against working on Sum
day shall be employed in that branch of
the service. State rights have been inter-
fered with by Congress, which has decreed
that the Government employees may dis
turb the rest and worsbip of the people of
separate States by the running of mail
trains on Sunday.
From the origin of the history of man,
he asserted, the main track down to the
present day has been the seventh day of
the week for rest and worship. A few sects
have switched off on side-tracks, but they
are mostly back again.
Any man, he said, who observes Satur-
day as day of rest, complies with the
fourth commandment but in this country
the majority want to observe Sunday, and
the will of the majority should be legalized
and enforced. California is the only State
in the Union without civil Sabbath, and
the people should see to it that the Legis-
lsture brings her into the fold. California
is the hotbed of the continental Sabbath in
America. This is great State in climate,
in commerce and wealth. Why should
she not be one of the leading States in
character.
The speaker concluded by stating that on
trip through K street yesterday, from
Sixth to Second, and thence to the depot
he counted 123 places of business open,
and only 26 that were closed. Fiye-sixths
of the merchants are doing seven days.
work for six days pay. Without
any law on the subject the citi-
zens should cinulate a petition to all
business men to close on Sunday; and
thus, while getting rest by voluntary
means, they would be aecumulating ma
terial for Sunday law.
1t was announced that State convention
OF Sunday law advocates would be held in
San Francisco next Thursday evening, and
a long list of Sacramento delegates thereto
was read and Endorsed by the audience.
A request was then made for all who
favored Sunday law to rise, and ninety
six persons responded. When the con-
trary question was put fourteen rose, many
others remaining seated.

Newbert made little hit and was thrown
out st first. Roberts and 0'Day followed,
but were equally unfortunate. But, to
even matters up the visitors did not tally
either in the seventh-that lucky seventh"
which Friscos' opponents have all learned
TO fear. This made the Sacranentans
breath freer, and many wagers were re-
newed.
But that NANCY cur of shea's had upset
everything.
The very inning in which the visitors
should have been down comprehensive
eighth-gaye them two more runs and tied
the score.
The excitement that prevailed when the
ninth opened was beyond description.
Everybody stood up and held their breath
Veach stepped up 10 the plate as sober and
serious as priest-no funny business now
and he smashed one out to left that
looked Q sure three-bagger, But that
nimble boy, Levy, was out there and gath

long tly. Gagus went on an easy groInder
to Donahue, and hush came over The

plate. Confusion was at its hight again. as
Powers took up his bat and stood over the
plate.
Zeigler's left leg was high in the air,
preparatory to delivering the ball, when. to
his horror, he saw that confoanded dog of
Shea's trottipg along toward the visitors
bench. In an instant the vision of defeat
flashed across his mind, and he tossed the
ball to Powers weakly. Powers smashed
the ball, and smashed it hard Perrier

SATURDAYS TRAGEDY
Mrs. shellars still Alive-Further

Mrs. Shellars Still Alive-Further Par
uculars About the Bloody Affair.
Mrs. John Shellars, who was shot by
John Henning Saturday evening, was still
alive this morning at last accounts, but the
doctors have little hope of her recovery.
Thomas L. Acock denies the statement
that he expressed the opinion, from what
he observed, that the woman did the shoot
ing, and that she was lying upon the floor
when he entered the place. The opinion
that he did form, though, was that a third
party did the shooting, instead of either
Henning or the woman. Mrs Shellars, he
says. was sitting in a chair when he en-
tered, and on the floor, Just beside the
chair, lay the pistol with which the shoot
ing had been done. Directly across the
room-some distance from the woman
lay Henning upon the floor. From
the positions of the two persons, he
says 1t Goes not look probable
that the man did it. However, this is only
an opinion, and he admits he may be mis-
taken. The third party he says might be
Mrs. Henning, SIS he once heard that she
threatened to kill both her husband and
the Shellars woman. Mr.. Acock was one
OF the first persons in the place after the
lrageoy, ana states that three others fol-
lowed close at his heels. As soon as he
saw the condition of the woman, he advised
that stimulants be given her. Instead of
this the others gave her ice water.
The woman open her eyes and said: as
he dead?n
YES, too dead to skim" was Acock's re-
ply.
A special policeman or Waterman.
named Goods, was also an early arrival.
When he saw the pistol on the floor he
made haste to pick it up. Mr. Acock ad-
vised the over jealous individual that he
had better not disturb anything until the
Coroner arrived. Goods, with a swagger,
said: II m an officer, am; know what I'm
doing" He then began meddling with the
body of Henning, changing the position of
the arms, and the like. Acock remon-
strated again, but met with another state
ment of I'm an officer" etc.

A Grand Game at the Bay, Won by the
Stocktons.
SAN Francisco, August 1lth.-TheS Stock
tons and 0aklands played grand ten
inning game to-day, the former winning
by the only earned run in the game, in the
last inning. The fielding of some of the
players on both sides was magnificent, and
the excitement among the spectators was
intense. The game seemed sure for Oak
land IN the eighth inning, when they got
in fiveruus, but the Stocktons, through
base on balls, couple of hits, and muffs
by Daily and Wilson, piled up enough
runs to tie the score.
In the tenth the 0aklands were blanked,
and for the Stocktons Sweeney hit for
single and scored on Stickney's double.
Coughlin, in the second inning, had the
nail of the first finger of his pitching hand
knocked off, but he continued his box
work, although in great pain. The score
