PROMINENT SPECTATORS.

Some OF the Ladies' and Gentlemen Who
Saw the Opening Game.
Godfrey Birdsell and beautiful
young lady occupied prominent grand
stand seats.
Henry Bell took pull at his long
horn frequently during the game.
The COWS from "Down on the Old
Farm made lots of noise every time
the San Francisco team took squirt.
Nit Phillips, a Santa Ana s'fan" of
the most pronounced type, pulled hard
for Los Angeles. He and Fun" Nc
Cauley used to play marbles together.
The Crane company was represented
by Mr.. Kolmar, who will hereafter
swear by Los Angeles.
Frank Levine, the leader of the River
side Fairs, brought about forty people
over with him. Riverside is with us.
Twelve solid men came up from Perris
to shout for Los Angeles.
Bob Widney attended mis- first game
Of ball for five years. He enjoyed the
slaughter of Uncle Henry's men i'm
mensely.
Capt. John Franklin and Rudy Teale
yelled themselves hoarse for Glenalvin's e
Giants.
Andy Francisco read law all afternoon,
served nine subpGnas, put three attach
ments on slow paying creditors. won
"a on Los Angeles, lost IS on San Fran
cisco, saw Los Angeles make ten runs
while Frisco made five and did not leave
his Office from 9 in the morning until B
in the evening. Great boy, that Andy !
The grand stand held many Of the
pr.ttiest young ladies in Los Angeles.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. W. Dotterer, prom
inent people from Philadelphia. saw the
Giants get away with Ham Harris's ag-
gregation.
o. X. Brown, an eastern furniture
man. enjoyed the spanking of the dad

that beautiful two-bsgger.

strike their gait in about two weeks.
Look out for squalls then.
Glenalvin made one tumble, but he
more than redeemed himself by an elec-
trical double play.
Tredway will be heard from today.
Pace was little over anxious yester-
day, and "Rick" Sharp had an off day.
Rodgers will make splendid back
stop for Los Angeles. He Gays he is not
yet in good condition.
Newman is no doubt splendid hit
ter, but seems to be rather Glow on the
paths.
Pitcher Roach did not come here with
reputation as hitter, but from his
record yesterday he seems to be quite a
batter himself.
"Rasty" Wright will be right at the
top of the California league batters. He
seldom makes long hits, but yesterday
he got in triple because it was the
opening day.
Stafford has slow ball that will puz.
zle the Harris aggregation today.
Danny Sweeney reminds one very
much of Little Puck or an angel with
out wings.
Captain Glenalvin will be very popu-
lar man in Southern California before
many days.
Gentle Willie Hasamaear led the team
yesterday at the bat and in the field.
Willie is not quiet boy, but can play
many kinds of baseball.
Peck Sharp says Frisco will win today
sure. 1t would be hard luck indeed for
Manager Harris to 60 500 miles from
home after defeat.
Billy Hulen the Kid is quite favorite
with the Los Angeles public. Billy will
be National Lacquer some day.
The crowd seemed to take very kindly
to Mr.. Tredway of Denver. He seems
to have beautiful supply of ginger and
is always in the game.
Pop McCauley is bound to be big
favorite with the Los Angeles public.
The boys call him the "sack."
Reitz is by long odds the best infelder
in the California league. He can play
any infeld position to suit Santa Ana
kicker.
Pete Sweeney is not yet at home at
first base. He may do better later on.
Pitcher Hoffman was touched up
rather hard by the Angels. Never mind,
Peachblow, you are not the only man
that will receive rough treatment from
Glenalvin's Grants.
The Boyle Heights accepted the chal-
lenge of the Morris Vineyards to play
on Washington street this afternoon.

THE GAME.
How The Angels Thrashed the League
Daddies.

How The Angels Thrashed the League
Daddies.
Well, we'll, the fun began in the third
innings. The Angels smashed out two
runs and the bleachers got up en- masse
and cheered. Roach led off with two
bagger. That Get the crowd wild, but
pandemonium reigned when Rasty
Wright sent Roach home with hard
hit past short. Wright scored on Nc
o. uley's, sky-scraper, which Pace failed
to hold. There was more rejoicing.
In the fifth the local enthusiasts had
another chance to yell themselves
hoarse. Wright led off with q three
bagger. Tredway got his base on balls.
Stole second, Peck Sharp failing to
negotiate the sphere. Pace made a
second error by dropping Glenalvin's
fly. With the bases full Gentle Willie
came to the bat, and when he lined out
a two-bagger there was a great hurrah
and the Los Angeles shortstop was the
hero of the hour.
He made dash for the home plate on
a passed ball and made slide that
would have done credit to King Kelly in
his palmiest days.
The visitors were blanked until the
sixth innings, when they were fortunate
enough to get four runs.
Stafford went in to pitch for the
Angels in the seventh, as Roach strained
himself g. few minutes previous while
fielding ball.
Los Angeles made three more in the
eighth and another In the ninth. In
the eighth, gentle Willie opened hostili-
ties with base hit. Newman followed
suit, and gentle Willie scored on Rog-
ers's base hit to center field. A muff Of
Wright's star gazer by Rube Levy let
out two more rms.
The run In the ninth Was made in
this wises Glenalvins made asbase hit.

THE OPENING PARADE.

Ball Clubs,

Ten Thousand People View the Crack
Ball Clubs.
At IL 80 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
there was quite stir in baseball circles.
Coupes containing basball magnates
and baseball players could be seen going
in the direction of the plaza.
At AS p. m. the procession moved
up Main street, headed by the military
band. The carriages were all gaily
decorated with pampas plumes.
The Los Angeles and San Francisco
teams were dressed in their new uni
forms, the varigated jackets of the
Angels looking immense. A large crowd
formed on the streets and the greatest
enthusiasm was displayed all along the
line of march. The parade was viewed
by at least 10000 people.

Mr.. Vanderbeck, the proprietor of the
Los Angeles club, watched the game
from the grand stand. He is great
fan, and the game just suited him to
perfection. Manager Harris was just
trife perplexed. 1t is the first time
that the "league daddies" were ever
beaten in an opening game. The San
Francisco manager will hereafter have
a very high opinion of "the league
baby" 1t is very lusty infant, as
some OF the outfielders of the visiting
team can attest.

imbecile. Mr.. Tyndall easily ~hypnotized
him, induced him to eat a little and then
introduced Detective Bosqui rs George
Wilson, a "cracksman" known to Dawson.
The latter broke out volubly at once,
told about helping in various robberies
and answered every question with freedom.
Another officer was then introduced as
Mr.. Solomon, a suspected "fence," of San
Francisco, and Dawson abused him thus:
Say, you old Sheenyl II you don't watch
out you'll get back to Jail again. You owe
me three dollars now. You have too many
fellows about your shop. We are all dead
leery Of you"
The mindreader also tried his powers
on one Harrell, suspected Of murder at Rio
Vista, but though Harrell seemed to be-
come hypnotized, he did not give up any
thing. On the contrary, he made out a very
clean bill of moral health, and the police
think he was only shamming hypnotism.
II the new process can do such things it is
full of awful possibilities, both for good
and evil. Not only nay criminals be made
to give up their secrets, but man not
criminals may be put in very awkward po-
sitions-lovers, politicians, diplomats and
commercial drummers, for instance.

seemed to form a mutual attachment al.
most at sight, There was the usual court
ship and every one expected that there
would be an early marriage, but there was
not, and about three or four months ago
Mr.. Gray was nearly heartbroken when
his daughter announced that her condi-
tion was such rs to call for prompt action
and that Stephen Grogan was responsible
for her trouble.
Gray at once sought out his daughters
betrayer, who refused point blank to wed
Miss Gray. but offered to compromise by
paying her more money than she could re-
cover by an action in the county court.
This so exasperated the father that he
sprang to his feet and drew his revolver.
Mr.. Gray also contends that this action
was induced by Grogan's threatening him
with a chair.
Mr.. Brent, in whose Office the meeting
took place, grappled with the outraged
father, and while they were scufling the
man who had caused all the trouble es-
capped from the room, and running down
stairs entered the treasurer's office, where
he jumped over the counter and attempted
to secrete himself under a desk. But Mr..
Gray was close upon his heels. There was
a flash, a report, a groan and Mary Gray
had been avenged. Grogan died a few
hours later. Gray says he regrets the ne
would rave behaved similarly under the
circumstances He tried afterward to com
init suicide, but was prevented.
