crowd was there the old fans, with the
same old fish horns and tho same old
cow-bella. Aud Ell Tslegrsfol won q
pennant-won it from the Francis Will
sons-won i. by playing good baseball
tail endera though they were whom the
season was new. The score was s to 8
and Ell Telegrsfoa had an Inning &c
throw at the birds.
The fact that El Tslegrafos and the
Wilson's were tied for first place in the
pennant race and that this was to bs
the deciding game. coupled with the
fact that the day was perfect for outdoor
sport. brought out good crowd at the
park yesterday, and the crowd brought
out their fish horns and their enthusl-
asm and turned them loose.
In this grand stand there was q good
showing OF the fair sex, and the ladies
were not backward in showing their sp-
probation OF good plays. The bles cheers
were thickly populated aud the kinder
garten made good showing. Alto
gether, it looked like baseball had run
up against a revival in these parts.
The game itself was of the good old
kind, where every play ia close and the
umpire gets the worst of it. Chapman
umpired and made good job OF it, too.
but there was kicking. The game was
too closely contested to go without kicks
at the unfortunate umpire.
The Wilson's sent out to Pomona and
got shortstop named Loucks, but it
wasn't a good move. He only helped
them to loae the game. Tyler and Hor-
ton did the tossing, Tyler for the Will
sons and Horton for Ell Telegrafos. 1t
wasn't exactly pitchers battle, but Hor-
ton got shade the best OF the honors in
the delivery end Of the game. while be.
tween Whaling, who received for the
Wilson's and Blanford, who was there
to take them away for Ell Telegraios, it
was about an even thing.
The game was better in the windup
than it started out to be. After the
third inning the Wilson's permitted Ell
Telegrafos to make but one tally; but,
alas it was too late, and then the Tee-
grafos weren't doing much permitting
themselves, for the Wilson's only got two
runs after the third.
BY INNINGS.
The Wilson's opened the ball. Hart
was up first, and lined the leathern
sphere down to short. wild throw
gave him the bag and he brought in the
run. making the second on throw
from Horton over first and the plate on
Touck's liner to short and an error by
Blaniord, consisting Of a poor throw.
Touck'a run counted on j. Moore's hit
to the right field. Moore, Whaling and
Tyler were out at the first station on
easy throws.
Swan appeared first for the Telegrafos
and walked to first on bslls. He stole
the second bag and scored on Warmers
hit to right. Plant gained the initial
on an error by Loueks at short and went
to third on Warner. He left for home
on Blanford's hit. Warner was put out
at the plate after getting to third on
pair OF errors. Lohman had been hit
by the pitcher and waa on first when
Blaniord came up with the bases full.
The ball was thrown to third and
missed and everybody crossed the plate.
but the umpire very correctly turned
them all back, aud P. Lehman waited
for Franks push down to the pitcher,
and the throw to first before coming
home. Youngswerth was put out at
first and I. Lehman struck out to end
the inning. Thus the first inning ended
with two rams for the Wilson's and three
for Ell Telegrafos.
The fret half OF the second yielded the
Wilson's one run. Plnckney got started
on balls and was thrown out at second.
Sepulveda got away on balls, made sec
ond on Lohman's tumble of Guercio's
little swat and came in on Harris strike
and an error. Moore struck out and
Hart stole second, Then Loucks struck

Ell Telegrafos made q couple in the
last half. Horton made a hit and was
thrown out at eecond. Swan made the
rounds. He started on a bunt to the
pitcher. stole second and came in on

out and Warner came in on Lohman's
single to ths center.

this third, and the Telegrafos improved
the opportunity offered them TO in.
crease their lead two timea. Blanford
and Youngs worth made the tallies. j.
Moore dropped Blanford'e fly on center
and the runner made two stations. He
came over the plate on Lohmsn's fly,
which Hart dropped on second. Youngs-
worth singled, stoe second and came in
on Lohman's bunt.
The fourth was fruitless and in the
fifth Whaling for the Wilson's put up
just one. He singled. sending the ball
out through center field, blowing up a
cloud OF sand and having the appear /
ance OF comet on tear. After Tyler
had struck out and Pinokney had sacri-
feed Whaling to rescue Sepulveda, |
broks off this long hit OF the day, a
.wo-bagger, which put Whal- |
ing over the plate.
The sixth was good for one more for
the Wilson's, brought around by Hart,
and it began to be interesting for tbs
spectators Hart got frat on little
funk to Pete Lehman and poor, low
down throw by that old-timer. He
came in on Whaling's excellent judg-
msnt Of q wild pitch
1t was way long in the last h III OF the
sighth before any more runs came In
and then LohInan started with double
and came ia when Plant planted a
a rips three sgzsty swips over in the
right field.
The Wilson's worked hard in the first
half OF the ninth. A pennant was at
stake, and there was lots OF hard feeling
over that uennant, too. But thew didn't
sven score once, and they lacked two
runs to tie. They didn't get a man over
frat. Whaling, Tyler and Pinckney
went out in regular order and the deed
was done.
