The Colonies, not to be outdone by their
metropolitan rivals, the Frscos, went in yes
terday and in manner most satisfactory to
a large and highly appreciative audience
defeated the All-California combination by
a score af to 8.
Van Hatren was In the box for the stars
and was neither steady nor effective. His
wildness was in several instances disastrous,
ard in three innings the Colonies very tell
ingly punched their hits off him. His sup
port, however, was of a gilt-edged order.
The graceful little Carsey did the twiripg
against the formidable Fasteners, and his
work was up TO the top Notch. Five hits,
which he kept well distributed, were all the
consolidated team of National League,
Brotherhood and American Association
players could secure of this very promising
youngster. lie had excellent command of
the ball. used good judgment, and was well
backed by his catcher, Lohmau. The work
of his ielders was rather weak at times, but
not sufficiently so as to give their opponents
the opportunity of overtaking them.
Some phenomenal fielding characterized
this game, as it has every other contest
played by the locals and Eastern men.
Long made a remarkably fine running
backward catch off McDonalds bat in the
seventh inning which appeared good for at
least three bags; Mcdonald captured a
very pretty one In short left from SWEETS
willow and received considerable applause;
Tip O'Neil gathered a couple of fouls in
good shape; Fogarty and Texas O'Neill
were on hand for everything that sailed into
their territory; Carsey did some very neat
fielding in his position; DUNCAN made a
lightning long throw from right, retiring

the "cracker-i jack" play of the game was
made by that sterling fayorite, Pete
Sweeney.
1t occurred in the eighth inning, and was
most sensational performance. DUNCAN
drove vicious ball at Carroll, which hit his
shoe. bounded up and hit his head, and then
again bounded in the air. Sweeney. with
lightning rapdity, snatched the ball as it
was falling, and, in doing so, his feet slipped
from under him. DUNCAN was blowing at
terrific rate down the line, but Sweeney in
falling swerved his body toward the bag,
and his hand, in which was clucthed the
the big right-felder reached it. A startling
bit of work, and heartily appreciated.
The runs were made as follows:

day. leading off with a corking single right

which advanced Cantillion to third, and a
wild pitch scored him. DUNCAN came home
from third on Lohman's sacrifice.
In the third, Midget Sweeney popped one
just over first, and travelled to third on
Browns wild throw of Dungan's hit. Dooley

home, but the backstop was nailed trying
TO reach third on the hit by pretty throws

The following inning allowed them an
other run. Tip O'Neil was hit by pitched
ball and limped TO the bench, Mcdonald be-
ing selected to run for him. Jim cleverly
stole second, went TO third on Carsey's sac
rihce and came home on Cantillion's scorcher
straight over the second bag.
They made their last two in the eighth.
Carsey's hit to Van Haltren forced O'Nei,
who gained his base on balls. at second.
The stocky Cantillion again pushed out a
single, giving Carsey the middle bag. The

moved Cantillion to third, the latter scoring
shortly after, while Pete Sweeney made the
wonderful put-out of Dungan's hit already

Carroll scored the first run for the All

hit, enabling the faet-footed runner to reach
