BY SEVERAL RUNS
Boston Again Conquers
the Locals.
A Handicap Series of Baseball in
Which Only the Champions
Eventuate.

The Boston team toyed with the young
men who wear the San Francisco uniform
on the diamond field for the space of an
hour and a quarter yesterday afternoon,
at the end of which time they concluded
that they had had fun enough. and retired
TO the clubhouse. noting an 8 to l score ON
the board. which left the FriscOs some
what in the min GRITTY.
The Handicapped in the present series
has evidently made a mistake In the al
lowancs given the local team. or else they
have not yet struck their gait, but If the
series had been awarded TO them in the
first place they would have some chance
Of winning.

The champions scored in the first on

Long and Duffy out at first. McCarty got
a life on an error OF Hulen, but Beckley
retired the side on a long fly to Sweeney.
They chalked up three more runs in the

was given base. Duffy bstled high fly

and as Long had not got off his base,
Duffy was touched out. McCarty then

on an error by PeQuigney. Nash hit for a

in on Kittridge's single, and Nash was
caught at the plate, while Kit landed at

His Second Offeuse.

Charles Brown. alias Willis, is again In
trouble, and this time of a serious nature
as il is his second offense. Some months
ago the customs inspectors discovered
Brown, who then went under the name of
Willis. with trunk which had false
bottom in which lot of smuggled opium
was concealed. Willis pleaded that he
was poor carpenter and had bought the
trunk al auction. knowing nothing about
the concealed opium, and his story was be-
ieved. A day or two ago the same man
was caught with another trunk with a
false bottom in it. in which were fifty i've
tael tins OF opium. Brown or Willis had
preliminary examination before Com
missioner Heacock yesterday and was held

which be went TO jail. 1t is understood
TINT Brown or Willis, whichever he is,
Will plead guilty to the charge of faciitat-
ing the transportation of smuggled opium.

there is practically nothing doing in the
outdoor athletic line now. The Olympic
Club grounds look deserted, with the ex-
ceptiOn OF the members who journey to
them for the purpose Of playing handball
on Sundays. Seldom an athlete is seen ex.
ercising upon the cinder path, which has
been thoroughly washed of It's surface
clndeTs by the late rains. 1t seems as il
outdoor athletics on this coast are annu-
ally becoming less interesting. One of the
principal reasons for this is that the club
members have lost interest in the pastime.
OF the 2000 members that represent the
Olympic Club there are not m ore than q
dozen men. If that number. who can be got

anglers at Point Reyes, but that the
winters run of steel-heads had not
arrived. and good fishing would not be
assured until January.
The fact of few fish having been taken
stirred up lively interest among the dis

news in THE CALL, and the result was
that on Sunday last forty five anglers got

COURSlNG.
Death of the Most Popular Leash
man OF the State.


The following communication relative 10
Judge Pennies death has been received
from one of the most enthusiastic sup
porters OF coursing on this coast, who has
never failed TO attend a meeting of any
importance:
The death OF Judge Pennie ON Saturday
last cast gloom all over the city, but
especially was this the case with the leash
men. among whom he was especially
revered.
For years past Judge Pennie took a
warm interest in the sport OF the leash,
and the appearance of his CHEEKY cOunte-
nance among the fraternity whether at
MERGED or IN any Of the parks near the
city was hailed with pleasure by all. In-
deed the fact that the Judge was known
TO be going to the cOuTsing was iDducement
enough to bring others 20 the fields. and
especially was this the case among the old
time coursing men OF the State.
Many and pleasing were the anecdotes
told during the past week by his old
friends OF the leash about the many trips
they mad made together in the years past
TO Modesto, Tracy and MERGED, and Of the
good time" enjoyed in his company, and
how If the members of the clubs, through
tnelr eagerness 10 secure the honors or
emoluments of the days coursing, got
Into any little, petty or selfish arguments
WIN odCu DtutT iHo very appearance Oh
Judge FEMME on the scene was enough TO
settle all differences, and his promise OF
singing for them his favorite song, when
Lyons Ale Was New. Boys" was always
greeted with the liveliest applause. clearing
away at once any signs of tiiscord or un-
evenness "a quickly as fades away morn
ing cloud before the rays of California
sun.
Az the very last meeting of the leashmen
at Newark only short week ago, the
Judge was present and seemed to enjoy
himself. as he expressed 1t 20 the writer Of
this notice, like a boy" and remarked
why, this is about as good as MERGED
but we must have great meeting there
this spring." He was looking hale and
hearty. too. and seemed good for the next
ten years.
Alas! One week after that day he was
laid to lest, and hundreds of his old-time
friends saw with sorrow and fearful eyes
the grave close over one Of natures noble
men. Dear old friend,
Light be the turf of thy tomb.
May its verdure like emerads be:
There should not be the shadow of gloom
In aughtthat reminds us OF thee.

What the Oakland Navy Boys Intend
Doing.


In connection with the race of the Oak
land navy on Sunday last a meeting OF the
association was held to formulate plan
for the ensuing year. 1t was decided to
have a race every month to occur on the
sunday having the smallest tide. The
rules were changed so that besides the
trophy 10 be awarded for the boat
making the largest number OF points,
class trophies are also To be pre-
sented according to the sizes of the
crafts. For this purpose they were
divided into three classes. boats under IS
feet in length. boats between IS and %
feet in length. and boats over % feet in
length. The different classes will be des-
ignated by red. white and blue pennants
respectively. Changes were also made in
the position of stakeboats, so that one
course should be dead to windward. The
whole distance to be sailed in every race
ia six miles.
