A WONDERFUL GAME OF BALL.

How Tent No. Defeated No. 6 in .
Ten-Inning Game.
There was baseball game at Athletic
parka Yesterday. that was, in many re-
spects, the greatest exhibition ever seen
of the national game as she is some
times played. 1t was between Tents
No. 2 and No. of the Knights of the
Maccabees, and they played ball all over
the lot at the foot OF Sixth street and
through the streets clear back to No. Ia
West First street, and some of them are
probably playing yet. One thing is
| morally sure-no, it is mathemati-
caily certain-Judge McComas will
not get through playing the game
| for several days. And it really is too
bad. The Judge means well. He meant
particularly we'll yesterday, but-say,
did you ever umpire an amateur game
| of ball, with friends OF the players on
| the bleachers? No? Well, the Judge
| thought he could yesterday, but oh,
twas different in the evening, The
| judge never overlooked play-that is,
play that was properly made in the
game. The great trouble was that he
saw great many points that did not
particularly occur to anyone except the
| intruders, and upon their suggestions
depended the outcome of many de-
ciHions.
The game itself was out OF sight.
| Within four blocks was too near to be
out of hearing. Tent No. 2 won the
game, although Tent No. 6 had the
lead up to the eighth inning. No. 2 was
particularly strong in the way of bat
| ting-in numbers. Three different
pitchers occupied the box for this club,
while only two shot curves over the
plate for No. 6. All these five pitchers
had remarkable control. Not man on
either side walked to first on called balls
or was hit by pitched ball. This is
remarkable.
With score of IL to 16 there were
| three men ON each side who did not
make tally. This is also very remark
able. It is also almost lamentable, for
| the genial gentleman with a blonde
moustache who perambulated about tie
center garden for No 6, is credited with
two-cushion swat and and single, yet
fgurative death overlook him each time
before be could reach the goal of his
ambition. 1t must not be overlooked
that Mr.. McCaffrey also has fielding

MONEY OR MARBLES.

III the Express Wants Either Here's
the Chance.
The express" last evening once
more claimed that this paper had per-
verted facts regarding the capture of
the bandit Vasquez, 'for political pur
pose" Just what bearing the question
of who captured Tiburcio Vasquez has
on politics this year no one knows. The
people have more important matters to
deal with. They propose to put the
stamp of condemnation on $12 min
ute government and to see that some
one is put in the county clerks Office
who will not permit the records of that
Office to be changed even by the tax col
lector of the county. But to get down
to the capture of Vasquez.
Capt. Emil Harris was only member
of sheriff Rowland's posse that captured
Vasquez. He, however, was the only
member of the party who entered the
house of Greek George while the bandit
was sitting at the table eating. He was
| the member of the posse to whom Vas
quez surrendered. He took him to an
enclosure of the L-shaped house and
Iudu6 ulu slb uUWAs d0I5 no Wdb
guarded until search of the house was
made.
Frank Hartley was stationed from rs to
100 yards from the house behind cactus
4 bush while Captain Harris entered the
1 house to meet the desperate bandit.
When he fell out of the house after
Captain Harris put rifle shot in the
right side of his arm, piercing it, and
then entering the body under the arm
pit and coming out two inches from the
pit of the stomach, Vasquez got up and
ran toward his horse. While attempt
ing to reach the animal which was tied
20 or 80 yards from the house Hartley
from place of perfect safety, fired a
double-barreled shotgun at him, each
barrel holding double B shot. Only two
or three leaden pellets such as the shot
gun contained, were found on Vasquez-
one on his hand and one grazed his head.
Any one desiring to contradict these
statements, and more particularly the
Express or its correspondents, either
the paper or the correspondent, can
come forth with ''money or marbles p
to use that papers expression, and be
accommodated at this Office.

tary walk, one would presume that he
glories in that honor. He had charge of
the company this morning in company
drill, and the manner in which he
handled the company in the "extende
order' drill, proves positively that the
sergeant'e chevrons were not misplaced
when they were sewn on his uniform.
Captain Meyer says that Ventura is a
delightful place, but the fleas are terri

chasing "big one" around his tent this
morning.
Lieutenant Alfonso is detailed "oficer

Corporal Mackenzie attended the SAL
vation army drills last night, but the
bows are not at all in love with his soft
tenor voice this morning; they cay it

This afternoon the men are busy load
ing blanks for the sham battle tomor-
row, and from the fact that company G he's
some A No. crack shots in their ranks,
not forgetting its captain and quarter
master sergeant, it looks serious for the
companies who may be on the opposing
side. The company's war correspondent
will give full account of the fight to-
morrow.
COMPANY A NOTES.
Company A was detailed this morning
to put rife range in shape for the COM
petition for the medal offered by the
citizens of Ventura. The work was
accomplished in time for battalion drill,
which, although good stiff one under
Captain Barry, of the army, was
thoroughly enjoyed, and officers and
men were enthusiastic in praise of this
efficient officer. Time this afternoon is
being devoted between study and pre-
pairing ammunition for the competition
and field maneuvers.
This afternoon Colonel Schneider, ac-
companied by the officers of companies
A and F, in addition to the field officers,
rode out to inspect the country in the
vicinity, where field work can be done.
A satisfactory place was found. where
the force can be handled to good advan-
tage in problem in minor tactics,
Hervey Lindley was guest at the
quarters of Lieutenants Steere and
Baldwin, which is a popular rendezvous
for all visitors.
The company is receiving accessions
daily, and by Sunday will be the old
labulOueu COmpduy "A, Will luli Talks
and more than enthusiasm enough to
carry it through the hard work laid out,
Lieutenant Steere is drilling gun de-
tachment for the field piece, and another
on the gatling.
COMPANY b.
Company B. was increased by one
man today, Private Shaw reporting for
duty.
The company is making good show
ing and doing good work, the men re-
porting promptly at all roll calls, the
reveille call being especially compli-
mented by Captain Barry, Of the First
infantry, U. S. A.
First Sergeant Coleman is model of
neatness and precision, and is non
commissioned officer any captain might
we'll be proud Of.
The tall form Of Sergeant Case loomed
up as sergeant of the guard on Thurs
day, the day Adjutant-General Allen
arrived, and to say the guard was
turned out" promptly and in good
shape would be needless.
Sergeant Cole and Corporals Garlick
and MCGOWAN have also done good
work on the guard.

from the attacks of several minute para
sites, which attack and destroy it in both
the egg and larval or maggot stage. These
are small, usually dark-colored, four
winged insects, quite well illustrated by
Fig. 6.
Professor Riley has, during the past
year, imported from England a foreign
species of these parasites, some of which
have, by his instruction, been turned loose
In the fields in the vicinity of Columbus,
with the hope that they will become estab-
lished IN the state. Preventive measures
may be noticed as follows: Sowing at the
proper time; burning the stubble; rota-
ton OF crops; sowing long, narrow plats
in late summer as bats; applying quick
acting fertilizers to seriously infested fields
in the fall in order to encourage attacked
plants to throw up fresh tiliers, and TO in
crease the vigor of these that they may
make sufficient growth to withstand the
winter.
After the fly has gained possession of
field, Entomologist Webster, of the Ohio
agricultural station, says. in the bulletin
from which the foregoing is an extract,
that be knows of no application that can
be made which will destroy it. Doubtless
pasturing the field, if early sown, will
often result in reducing the numbers of
the pest. besides giving to the ground that
compact, pulyeriZed nature which it should
have had at the first. No doubt many

teur to have good celery in October. The
white plume gives q chance of begin
ning with the harvesting of good celery
by the middle of July, and to grow this
product with less than half the labor re-
quired for the crop only few years ago.
what fine stalks it is possible to grow with
ordinary good management may be in
ierred from the picture here presented of
one OF many plants taken up at the end of
August and September. Its natural size
is INDICATED by the foot rule across the
plant. That such celery-almost as white
as snow-would be in good demand at any
time during that season nobody will dis
pute.
Anybody can grow such celery SAYS the
American Garden, which sets forth the re-
qulrements of the crop as follows: /.
Good plants set early in June. 2 Lavish
ness in the application of good compost
.. A continuous supply of moisture. The
northern grower, if he has a greenhouse
or hotbed available in early Feb
ruary, can raise his own plants. Sow in
flats, prick the young plants out in other
mats, few inches apart each way, or set
IN open ground; keep the plants well wa
tered, not too warm if under glass, and in
early June you will have plants worth set
ting. Ii you don't want to raise the plants
you can buy good ones by June l for s. or
"a per thousand. Another way is to buy
in April small untransplanted seeding
plants from celery-plant grower farther
south, and set in open ground in rows a
foot or less apart and plants two or three
inches apart in the rows. Nitrate of soda
scattered over the beds at the rate of
pound or two to the square rod has in our
experience seldom failed to show very
marked effects in promoting thrifty
growth.
The earlier in June the plants are set
out the better. if early celery is wanted.
Open deep furrow and fill it nearly full
of old, well-rotted compost or barnyard
scrapings and the like, then put the soil
back, and mix soil and manure well to-
gether in any convenient manner. Make
the rows directly over the manure-filled
burrows, setting the plants six inches apart
along tightly stretched garden line, or in
marks made with marker. Always press
the soil firmly about the roots. In a dry
time water the plants literally right after
setting them, and if possible shade for a
few days. Give the same cultivation and
general treatment as is required for other
garden crops. Early in July the plants
should be large enough for handling or
firminC
