WON ON ERRORS.
Santone Wins Two Feebly Played
Base Ball Games.

1
The old saying is that "hope
1 springs eternal in the human
breast" The game yesterday at the
San Pedro Ball park should prob
ably have been eXcepted-if any
hope was entertained that Bracket
would have a little less than TWEEN
ty-two full-grown errors, and San
| tone be content with less than
nine, all of which were well sea-
s0ned. Hope has sprung in that
| direction on several occasions in
this year Of our Lord, but never
has it succeeded to abide perma-
nently. In yesterdays game Hope
began to evapOrate already in
the first inning, when Mr.. Phe-
Ian, at third, gave the tip
that the game would not be
an errorless one. When the little
shOrtstop for the visitors attired in
a pair of little white panties, took
up his rendezvous between second
and third, a cold chill went down
the backs of the warriors lodged in
the old lumber fort just northwest
of the battle ground.
Soon the balls began to fly thick
aad fast, and i'm the very direction
of this same little short stop. 1t
seemed as if the locals wanted to
drive him out of the game. The
little ShOrtStOp had'a heap more
than he could handle and had to
leave few go by for the left fielder.
He then went to third base, but
couldn't do any better, and then
moved out into left. He went out
there in the last inning, and sue
ceedod in earning another error,
which was the last that it was
possible to make in the game. In
the whole game the little short
stop, third baSeman and left
fielder made seven errors without |
the least bit of assistance and with |
such ease and grace.
The visitors hit harder and Of
tener than the home team, but on |
the field they were determined to
treat the locals with the utmost |
mOdesty. They just fell onto Van |
Ripper with dull, sickening thud
and would have settled the contrO- |
versy quieter than saw mill
could rip off clapboard from a |
pine lOg-had they tielded better.
The final score of yesterdays
game was II to 7 for San Antonio |
while Saturdays game resulted in
a score of to 7 for the home
team.

Light Cattle SHIPMENTS.

Major w. c. Lewis, the genial
live stock hustler for the Santa Fe,
and Colonel VIM. II. Gleason, the
commercial agent for the same
road, have returned to the city
from an extended trip. Major
Lewis says that cattle shipments
are still very light, which is chief
ly owing to the present low money
market. Adyices from live stock
and commission merchants are to
the effect that live stock shippers
should not ship more cattle than
they can possibly help, as cattle
are in no demand at present.
Major Lewis leaves again to-
morrow and Mr.. Gleason goes out
tonight.

If Mr.. Weiss will invest in suf-

wiped off by the clean and dainty
gowns of lady passengers, and
