He Wants the Earth,

The man who is afraid he isn't getting
all that his money pays for turns up in
various ways. Sometimes he is found in
the theater, where he insists on occupying
a reserve seat without having paid for one
He stands-or rather sits upon his rights,
and if the usher isn't able to eject him a
policeman has to be called, and the audi
ence is seriously vexed and disturbed
Again, he "puts up" at hotel, and as lie
isn't willing to put up enough money he
doesn't get parlor and bedroom, with
bathroom attached, which he claims he is
entitled to, and there is row. Occasion
ally ne refuses TO pay fare in a crowded
street car unless he be provided with a
seat, and in this he is undoubtedly right
and if there were more like him in New
York the greedy corporations would be
compelled to put on more cars to accom-
modatea long suffering public. In Pennsyl-
MIA, recently, the man who wants great
deal for his money bought an ordinary
railway ticket, for he was an ordinary sort
of man himself, and then boarded linn
tied train. He was elected, of course, and
he sued the railway company. The case
went against him, for the Judge held that
it is the business of passenger to see that
he has the right sort of a ticket. He
could ride on limited train, but he must
pay extra for the privilege. There are
men with such a limited amount of COM
mon sense that they can't understand this
simple proposition.-IsrdsS sftiags.

Baseball Notes.

There were probably no less than one
hundred Stockton people present at the
ball game yesterday. and from the way
they made their presence known, it is quite
safe to say that interest in the home nine
has revived in the Gas City.
A Stocktonite probably, so years of age,
hung on the small fence in front of the
grand stand in yesterdays game, and the
crowd had great sport with him. No doubt
he was every inch a stanch supporter OF
his own nine, but he must have lodged
into the brewery before he came out. He
was ".whopping er up" invariably when
his nine was getting the worst of the con-
test. The crowd in the grand stand cheered
With him.
There was decision by the umpire in
yesterdays game here. that scorer Young
is not satisfied with. Perrott came to bat
for the Stocktons when two men were out
and Fogarty was on first base A couple
of balls were pitched. and Fogarty was
thrown out at second base by Bowman.
This ended the inning But when the
Stocktons again came to bat Kilroy took
up the bat instead OF Perrott. He reached
first all right, but scorer Young notified the
umpire that Kilroy had batted out of
his turn and he was declared out. Then
came the part which the scorer could not
understand. Kilroy took up the bat again
and the umpire said it was proper. al
though he was just out for batting out of
turn. Mr.. Young claims that Perrott lost
his turn altogether, and that after Kilroy
was declared out for batting out of turn,
Cahill should have been the next batter.
1t looks as though he was right.
The Gus Lavinsons will play the Rock
Inns at Snowflake Park to morrow.

YESTERDAYS FIRES.
The Day Enlivened by Series of SIM
RIazas

The Day Enlivened by Series of Small
Blazes.
There were no less than four fires yester
day and last evening, but fortunately non
of them entailed serious loss. except tn
one that occurred about half-past o'clocl
in the evening. The first was at 2:45 P. NJ.
and was in the roof of small cottage OF
Fourth and R streets. The loss did nc
exceed $40.
The second fire occurred at o'clock in
the afternoon. small stable in the alley
between P and @, Ninth and Tenth streets
being burned. The loss amounted to abou,
500.
Fire number three occurred at half-pasi
o'clock in the evening, and was in the
Scroggs building at Tenth and K streets
The loss was merely nominal.
In this case the bell in the Corporation
House did not tap, and the Chief Engineer
had to depend on the Water Works whistle
for the number. which is not always re.
liable. Something is still wrong with the
fire-alarm system.
The o'clock fire last night was on Front
street, between N and o, and for time
bid fair to give the fremen some trouble.
There is row of small frame dwellings in
that block, and it was feared at first that
all would go, but the fire department con-
fined the flames to the building in which
they broke out and the one adjoining.
The former is owned by Smith 81 Whiting
ton, and occupied as a saloon by man
named Crowley. This and another small
structure. occupied by Mexican, were
damaged to the extent of about $500, fully
covered by insurance.
The fire department responded promptly
to all the calls. During the parade in the
forenoon Chief 0'Meara kept an en-.
CINE in reserve, but fortunately there
were no alarms while the procession was

THE pEHzAHT RACE.
FORTUNE ONCE AGAIN FAv0Rs THE
SENATORIAL BALL-T0ssERs.
By Winning a Game Yesterday, and sar
Francisco Losing, They Jump
Into the Lead.

II was hardly an effort for the Sacra-
mentos to take the game from the Stock
tons yesterday afternoon. Though 1t was
well.played there was little enthusiasm
manifested. The home club took the lead
from the start and the visitors never came
near oyertaking them. In fact, it was
bit of very poor playing on the part OF the
Sacramentos, that the Stocktons were al
lowed to score at all. They were shut out
for eight innings and if "a couple of the
Sacramento infielders had ielded the ball
properly and not stopped to dispute play
while runners were on the bases, the WIS.,
itors would not have had run. The first
tally was scored because Hoffman and
Stapleton were not attending to their
business. Bowman had feided the ball
and Selma ran home from third while Sac
ramento's pitcher and first basemen were
talking near first base. 1t was very
stupid bit of playing and Bowman was
the only one that was playing ball at the
time.
Kilroy was not batted hard and his sup
port was very good; but then Hoffman did
such effective pitching for his nine that
the visitors could only hit him safely
twice. He gave but one man his base
on balls. Bowman supported him as nc
other catcher would.
He never missed chance and although
Holiday is credited with base steal, il
would not have been had not the runner
unin;entionally knocked the thrown ball
out of Reitz's hands at second base.
Daly's work at short was brilliant, as was
his batting, and Reitz played as ne always
does-simply perfect.
Armstrong; work behind the bat was
fair and had Kilroy watched bases more
closely, there would not have been SO many
steals by the Sacrameptos.
Selma made some pretty stops at first
base and Fogarty did good work at second.
His high Jump catch of liner was worthy
of the applause it received.
Wilson made a remarkable left-hand
stop of lightning grounder and threw his
man out at first. 1t was ball playing.
Jack Stafford umpired very satisfactor-
ialy and will no doubt improve as
the season progresses. He decided some
very close plays and showed that he means
to do right in every case.
The train was three quarters of an hour
late in arriving here from Stockton and
the game did not commence until nearly
four clock. Following is the score:
