French players. The contestants were AMI
ceto Iturriarte and B. Etcheherria against j.
D. Etchart and g. Subirry. Their game
differs from the style of our players, only so
far that they use a small scoop-shaped bat
instead of the hand to hit the ball.
The four contestants were 1.-THE and lively
and used their bats in an energetic manner.
The novelty Of the exhibition WAS what
pleased the handbsll enthusiasts in the gall
lery.
The regular games Of the day were un-
usually interesting Jones was in fine trim
and played an excellent game throughout.

game in four years, also showed up in his
old-time form. He was ably seconded by
his partner. Bob Shay.

Of the day. 1t was between Jones and
Lawless and Rearden and Daily. In the first
game Jones and Lawless made q against
their opponents Is. In the second game
the figures were just reversed. The third
game stood q for Rearden and DAILY against
10 for the other team, and the fourth,
which was very close, stood q for Jones

4 SAILORS GALLANHRY.
1t Results In His Being Seri.
Ously Stabbed.
Henry Murphy Is Cut Twice by Mexican
for Attempting 20 Protect q Woman
in Coast" Saloon.

While under the influence Of liquor
Henry Murphy, a sailor, prides himself
upon being a defender of the weaker sex.
1t was an attempt to display his gailantry
that caused him to be seriously stabbed
yesterday morning.
About s o'clock he wandered from his
lodgings on Broadway, between Montgom-
cry avenue and Kearny street. to the shad-
ows OF the County Jail. Then he entered
the saloon at $40 Broadway, where a
swarthy Mexican was car0using with Sophie
Smith, woman who has spent half of her
life Ia jail and the remainder in "Barbsry
Coast resorts. In fact, she completed
term at the Branch County Jail few days
ago. This made no difference to Murphy.
To him she was woman who needed a de-
fender. and In loud tones he declared that
he would protect her, even If a thousand
Mexicans Instead of one were arrayed
against him.
By this time Sophie and her companion
were speaking words of wrath.
TO THE RESCUE.
"Say. you fellow" shouted Murphy, "you
let that won an alone or I'll do you"
u on minda your owna business" and to
show his contempt for Murphy's warning
the Mexican gave Sophie a slap In the face
that sent her Keeling.
The woman screamed and Murphy rushed
to her rescue He ran into the Mexican's
right fist and went sprawlng on the floor
Quickly he arose TO resume the combat. His
antagonist retreated few steps and drew a
stiletto. Not being armed with a deadly
weapon, Murphy backed up to the bar and
demanded protection. The baTkeeper
ordered him out.
Lend me your club" pleaded Murphy.
land I'll show you how to do up 'dago.'"
SECT out Of here" commanded the hard
hearted bartender, cor you'll taste the club
yourself. If youse fellers want to scrap go
outside and do tit don't go in here Seet'
"Ail right" said the undaunted sailor,
"giye me glass of beer to brace me and
then I'll 90 him another round"
AT IT AGAIN.
The beer was produced and eagerly
gulped down by Murphy, who then repeated
his declaration of war and retrested to the
sidewalk. Murphy was boiling with rage,
and his tauDting remarks caused a second
and more disastrous encounter. When the
Mexican followed him to the sidewalk Muir
ply lost no time In attacking. The men
clinched and the Mexican was getting badly
battered when be drew his stietto and
thrust the keen-edged blade twice into MUIR
phys body. Murphy dropped to the side
walk while his assailant fed with the blood
stained weapon.
A few minutes later Officer John Muir
ray discovered the ounded mau and took
him to the Receiving Hospital. Assistant Po-
lice Surgeon Berry found that Murphy had
received a deep wound in the chest and an
other In the abdomen. The injuries were
considered to be of a very serious nature.
Othcers went In search of the stiletto-
wielder. but we're unable to find him during

Himself With Bale Rope.
For several days the residents of Baden
and that neighborhood have noticed q
strange man in their midst. Who he was
or what his business no one knew and until
yesterday had no cause TO inquire. On Sat-
uTday night he wandered into the Eleven

payne, paid the price and carried the wine
away. So far as known he was not seen
alive afterward.

Nothing which could lead to the mans
