NOVEL FOOTBALL GAME.
Two Female Teams to Play Under
Association Rules.


San Francisco has had many novelties in
the line of female troupes. 1t has had
female acrobats, female Ministries, female
baseball-players, ETC.. but the domain of
the football player is now to be invaded.
This startling innovation is shortly to be
introduced. and two teams are now prac-
ticing for public game at some early date
in December.
d. r. Mcneil, the astute athletic mana
ger, conceived the idea of introducing this
novelty and readily secured number of
women who were anxious TO develop their
latent kicking prOcllvities. Of those Sc
cured two are from Canada and one is
from England, where they have had ex-
peTieDce in matches.
Mr.. Mcneil is quite confident of their
creating quite a Juror when they appear
in public. Practice games are played quite
frequently. Captain Wilson of the Fort
Mason football team is coaching them,
and is quite proud of the success he is
meeting with in imparting to them the
rudiments of the game.
Association rules will govern their con-
tests, said Mr. Mcneil yesterday. Inter
collegiate and the other kinds of football
are too rough for women to play. The op-
portunlty Tor scrlmmageS are fewer in
association ball than In any other, and
am afraid If there was the least oppOr-
tunity TO handle each other there would be
veritable slaughter on the field. In Eng
land and Scotland several teams have
played. and made marked success OF it.
If they succeed in the old country | think
the time is ripe for their appearance here. "
Mr.. Mcneil is hopeful uf calling the
first game some time during the month of
December. The names of the women
composing the teams Will not be an
nounced until q few days before the first
public game is to be PLAYED.

other goal, put through by Poole. the
score at half time standing two goals in
the Wanderers favor to none for the Fort
Masons.
When time was called tor the second
half the soldier boys seemed determined
to do or die. Up aud down the field the
ball was driven until Bennett of the SOL
der team by good kick won the first goal
for the Fort Mas0ns after twenty minutes
play.
But their success in keeping the goal
seemed to unnerve them and the Wander
ers were not slow to take advantage of
their opponents weakness. In the last
half of the game Moir of the Wanderers
headed the ball through the goal, des pite
Bury's desperate work. About seven min
utes later Tossac of the Wanderers, by a
beautiful long kick, won the second goal
of the second half for his club, the score at
the close of time standing 4 to l. The en-
tire game was we'll contested throughout,
and while the Wanderers outplayed the
Fort Masons each goal was won only after
the most desperate struggles.
A schedule for the coming month has
been arranged as follows: November u,
Pastimes VS.. Rangers; November 10, This
ties vs.. Wanderers; November %, Fort
Masons VS.. Pastimes; December 5, Rangers
VS.. Wanderers.

Referee, p. A. F. Keith.


Fort Mason won the toss and chose the
south goal. In the kickoff the soldier boys
formed fine comb nation run toward the
Wanderers goal, with Bennett and Mason
in the lead The ball was very cleverly
worked toward the goal where lively
scrimmage ensued, and for moment IL
looked as if the soldiers had won the first
goal. But Gray emerged from the heap
with the bail in his hand, relieving the
pressure.
The ball was returned to center and
Moir and Fyfe cleverly ran 1t TO the Fort
Mason goal. Here Erskine attempted to
put it through, but Bury passed IL to Ben
nett and Wilson. Goode made another at
tempt TO beat Gray, when Kidd and Morr-
son stopped it. The forward division of
the Wanderers again made break to-
ward the soldiers goal. where Fyfe sue
ceeded IN kicking 1t through after ten min
uies' play. 81
The ball was again conferred, the Fort
Masons making it lively for the Wander

markable improvement in their com bin a.

Bennett took possession OF the sphere and
by clever manipulation worked it up to the
Wanderers goal, sending it into the hands
of Gray, the goalkeeper. Gray picked 1t
up in time to avert point being scored
against his team.
The soldiers again played a splendid
game, but seemed to have hard luck in
front of goal GRAY standing sentinel in an
effective manner. Bennett of the Fort
Masons played with great judgment, and
n fact the entire right wing of that team
was very effective in combination.
The Wanderers played hustling game
and the forward division seemed to un-
derstand one another's play. They were

Poor Car Service.

Residents along the line of Mission
street beyond Twenty-sixth are much per-
turbed over the manner in which the
Mission-street horsecar line is operated.
They complain of the poor accommodation
given by the two bobtails which run from
Twenty-sixth street south to Cortland
avenue. The cars make no connection
with the bobtails running between
Twenty-sixth street and the ferry, and run
only at fifteen minutes or longer intervals,
while those from Twenty-sixth street in
run at intervals of five minutes.
1n short time the two bobtails which
do duty beyoB TweDly-sixth are TO be run
to China avenue. and then only to hold the
franchise between Cortland and China
avenues at the fve-mie house.
On the 9th of December the time allowed
to have the electric road in operation
between those two points expires, and the
railroad has given out that the horsecars
will be extended to protect the rights of
the railroad company.

San FranciscOs Give Up
the Struggle.
EASILY BEATEN BY PACIFICS
The CALIFORNIA; Look Like Playing
Out Time When Rain Puts
Stop to the Game.

Now that the disposition of the William
Greer Harrison cup is finally decided, the
eternal fitness of things has begun to show
itself in the final determination OF the
games to be played off to conclude the
season of the California Cricket Assocla-
ton.
Yesterday there were two surprises.
The Alamedas, winners Of the cricket
championship last year and this, had
struggle with the supposedly weak Cali
fornias. who stood them off in such excel
lent style that although rain stopped the
game half al hour before the time Tor
drawing stumps. the fact remains that
the CALIFORNIA; would certainly have
made a draw by playing out time. The
Alamedas occupied the wickets most OF
the day. finally declaring the innings
closed when the score stood 292 for two
wickets. The innings OF Hood, 1872. not
out, was a magnificent example OF free
confident batting Such was the innings
of Randall, who was smartly taken at the
wicket when he haG taken up 81. Slow
man was not out for 81. and seemed rather
ANNOYED that he was not allowed to 90 on
scoring.
The CALIFORNIA; went in to play out time
merely, as they found that the task set to
them was at least hopeless. Three men
retired during the first over to the bowling
of Young Ward, bat when Arson and
Guild got together there was difference
Immediately noticeable. Arson played
grand cricket, and when rain stopped the
game he was. not out, AZ. Guild, coming
cricketer, scored 90 in good style. On the
whole it was good game and both sldes
deserve credit. Teddy Hood says there is
nothing like an average after all. Follow
ing are the scores:

THE MUSICIANS PICNIC.
The Threatening Weather Keeps
AWAY a Crowd.


The storm which hung out over the
Golden Gate yesterday kept many people,
who had promised themselves jolly half
holiday, away from the complimentary
picnic given by the Musicians Union at
Harbor View.
When the big band struck up the first
waltz there were almost more musicians
playing than there were dancing, and in
the auadrile that followed it took several
handkerchiefs tied around as many arms
to fill up the sets.
But as the afternoon advanced and the
rain still DELAYED. guests began to arrive
more rapidly, and by 3 O'Clock the
pavilion was quite we'll filled. and an
enjoyable time was had DESPITE the mist
which swept down from the hills and
finally turned to rain.
The musicians furnished one of the
unions best bands. and the programme of
dances which occupied the afternoon was
enjoyed by those who braved the threat
ening weather to accept of the unions
hospitality.

The Emeralds Defeated.

The rain that fell yesterday did not
dampen the ardor of the Emerads and the
Pacifics in their struggle for the suprem-
acy. The Emeralds were defeated by
a score of II TO 2, and the victory is the re-
suit of Ibing's pitching and the Pacifics'
excellent batting.

The surprise of the season occurred
yesterday when the feeble Pacifics got
away with the formidable San Franciscos.
The result shows the folly of depending
upon two great men to win game against
eleven moderate players. This time Rob-
ertson and Webster failed to connect
while on the other side Socrates Wiseman
and Papa" Ward were responsible for 26
and 50 mot OUT respectively. 1t was q
most enjoyable game and the result did
not alter the position of either club in the
seasons analysis. Following are the
