Fully five thousand enthusiastic Oakland

Fully five thousand enthusiastic Oakland
ers had collected 1T the Emery grounds yes
teriay morning when Charley Sweeny,
eIai ia breezy summer coat and maroon
cap. called "play ball" Intermingled with
this number were probably eight hundred
or thousand street urchins, who had sur
reutltionsly scaled the fences, and who,
though unprovided with etlliopes, rattles or
fsh-horns. brought their voices along with
them and Justify yelled for every clever play
Of the Colonies, and as vociferously jeered
Tip O'Nel, who has been unfortunate
enough through his numerous fumbe3 to
incur the displeasure of the unnamed kinder
garten Of Oakland.
Coughlin occupied the box for the Nets
and Cobb Cfficiated fer the ColouelS.

Veach was the particular star. His 1e-
markable One-hand catches Of high and
wide-thrOwn balls was the most noteworthy
features of the game. As usual, lip ONell

team. while FGseos two We're divided be-
tween Levy and Shea.
The FriscoS broke the spell in the third
inning. Everett was presented with his
base on balls, but was forced at second on
SpeerS hit to CantilOn. Coughlin's safe
shot to left advanced the little backstop
base, and each mOvet up another bag on
passed ball. Cobb'S wild pitch scored
Spe,r, and COughlin was thrown out at the
plate on Sheas hit to y. O'Nril.
The following inning gave the Nets an
other run. Veach was retired on his fly, of
which Sweeney made a wonderful running
catch, and then 0Neill got in his deadly
work. Stevens popped up little lily, such

The Oaklands were being put out in great
shape in the meantime, and things looked
dubious for them.

Colonel's right bower. He instructed Cobb
to give Ebrlght his base on balls and then
Levy might be disposed of as he was in
the fore part OF the game - on strikes.
But Cobb only too well Obeyed his Captains
orders. He sailed high ball to Ebright,
which could not have been reached with an
