LOST BY ONE RUN.
Oakiand's Show for the
Pennant
GROWING BEAUTIFULLY LESS.
They Played Good Ball, but the Citrus
BeIters 0ut-Batted
Them.
GROWING BEAUTIFULLY LESS

Itnow looks as If Colonel T. Perturbed
Roblnson will not win the pennant after
all though everybody knows he tried hard
enough. In fact, he has left nothing undone
which would tend to increase the winning
chances OF his stalwart team.
Saturday night, for instance. after playing
that draw with the Angels, he broke away
from his keepers long enough to load his
Young men into a hack drawn by four white
horses, hire band and go gaiavanting
around the street quite a while before he
was recaptured.
Yesterday he fell up against the citrus
belters again, and after hard battle es-
eapPd from the muss one run short, the
Angels winning by score oil To =.
1t was all owing to hitch in the arrange
ments, which cou Id have been avoided If the
colonel had attended 10 business instead oil
monkeving with bandwagons ana hacks
and things of that sort.
But alas, ii is too late now for vain re-
grets. Ii will be remembered by the base
ball public that at the conclusion oil Frisco
last series with the Angels the only living
specimen of the Hankus Giganu US released
L. Knell, the southpaw. with the under
standing that he should be signed by his
TallneSS the Duke.
The object of this move was to put knell
I'm against the Angels al the winding up Of
the season, as he had proved very effective
against the left-handed swatters from the
south. 1t was expected that he would hold
them we'll in hand and thus help increase
the lead of the Colonies.
For some reason or other p. Knell, after
his release by Hank, was allowed to roam
at will until Saturday night, nearly week
after the release. Then, while the Colonel
was keeping close to the big drum in the
parade. Vanderbe threw his hooks onto
i. Knell ESQ. and landed him in the middle
of his camp.
p. Knea occupied the uniform recently
vacated by /. BasZ, the phenom, yesterday,
and the way he tOyed with the Colonies
made their hearts ache. In nine innings
they got but two hits. and the abortiye
lunges they made at his left-handed shoots
were positively heartrending. 7. kneli
tanned out ten OF them and still had some
curves left
Thus did the boomerang recoil with terrific
violence, and if VandfrbecK puts the SOUTH
paw in again to-day the eoonels will prob
ably give another exhibition of clubswinging.
Dewald did fairly well. but the Angels
managed TO get in their. few swats Just
when they would count for the most b.
Lange returned to his job and was greeted
with thunderOus applause.
The Coionels came out on the held with
the full intention, after the tie game on
Saturday. of defeating the Los Angel les
team. Their only reason for not Doing 80
was because they couldn't make enough
runs.

This was the only run made, as MeCauley,

The Oaklands then famed out in success

Nothing was done in the second inning.
In the third Tom Brown led off with a
ErouDder TO O'Neill and was put out at first
Stafford followed suit. MeCauley then
lifted a sky-scraper into left field and tht

Quad, who ran b. OK almost to the fenc,
and took it in over his shoulder.
Neither side scored again until the sixth
Stafford went In and gained first on De-
wald's error.
McCauley followed with a two-bagger
into left field. letting in Stafford. which
made the second run for the Angels.
In the sevepth both sides began TO play
ball, and It locked for while as ii Oakland
would win the game.
Baldwin WIS caught out on a fly 10 left
field. but was followed by knell with a two
Dagger IN the same direction. Brown went
out at first. which gave knell his third, and
be scored on passed ball.
The Colonels were getting mad about this
time and began TO play ball.

was caught ont by Stafford.
Then Bill Brown came IN and opened up
the ball with three bagger, coming home
on q two-bagger by Van Haltren.

began to howl, rafting Knell so that be re-
fused to 60 on with the game.
After much talk he concluded to 90 on.
and the inning ended with the same score.
In the eighth the Angels did not make
any gain. Oakland put Cartilion in place

managed to strike out.

pretty bad for the Colonies THAR conr-
age. however, was revived by Van Haltren
