Thousand, and they witnessed seven in
nngs of the best ball played on the
home grounds this season. Harry. Sta
ley, the veteran twirler, went into the
box. and the presence of the old
Lacquer appeared to inspire the players
with confidence. No pitcher ever re
ceived better support. II was gilt edged.
The miniature lakes scattered over the
grounds did not prevent the club from
fielding brilliantly. They pulled down
base hts, and accepted chances that
would drive Won der Abe to drink.
Franklin made but two hits in the sew
en- innings, and during all that time did
not get a man to third.
The work Of the fielders in the second
inning was phenomenal Ritz was first
at bat He picked out a nice one, and
sent It spinning over Somers' head, but
Pete sprinted for it, running backward,
and pulling 1t down. 1t should have
been good for at least two bases. The
applause Of the b,eachers was still echo
ing when Conley swiped the ball over
Crotty's head. Uncle Dan made leap
toward the skies, and pulled 1t down,
and again the crowd went wild. Duncan
Athen hit on line to Kerr, and the Can
uck gObbled it after hard run. Bali
also played a brilliant game at short,
eating up" everything which came his
way The error charged to him was eX-
cusable. His playing has seldom been
equalled on the home grounds.
Wheeling started the ball a-rolling In
the first, scoring one run on Balls two
Dagger and Crotty's single. In the sec
ond Ireland got a life on an error, anu
came IN on Rinehart's muff of Staley
long fly to leftheld. Somers led off with
hit in the next inning, went 10 second
on Torreyson's bad throw, and trotted
across the plate on Glasscock's long fly
cut. In the fourth KalkOff singled,
went to second on a wild pitch, and
home on Davis hit along the left fed
foul line. In the fifth Somers singled,
went to second or Crotty's sacrifice, and
scored on Glasscock's single. The club
was BANKED In the sixth. but made two
more in the seventh. Ball drew four
bad ones, went to secsnd on Irelands out
at first, and around home on Conley 3
bad throw. Uncle Dan hit and stole.
| Glassc0ck hit to COnley, and beat him
in a sprint race for the first bag, allow
ing Crotty to score.
The visitors drew large goose eggs, but
they put up a good game. The score:

BANG-OP BASE BILL.
The SO-Called Champions We're Easily
Defeated in Two Games
At the Island Park Yesterday
Afternoon-Staley Gave a Fine
Exhibition-Other Iron and Oil
and National League Games-In
Bowling Circles-Notes and Other
Sporting Matters.

There were sevral varieties of base
ball in the two games on the home
grounds yesterday. The morning
game was listlessly played, and the
spectators manifested little or no in
terest in the result. The other ex,
IRENE was reached in the afternoon
Contest wher Harry Slalcy. tic cx-
laagues wen. on the rubber, ard by
excellent pitching, backed up by phe>
nomenal fielding, managed to adnlnis-
ter a coat Of whitewash to the cham,
pionship pretenders. There were
about 600 persons at the morning game,
and nearly 1000 in the afternoon. in
spite of the threatening weather. and
subsequent rain. If the weather had
been fair the crowd would have been,
in all probability, record breaker.
Aside from the Nstless manner in
which it was played and ineXcusable
fielding errors by both teams, the morn,
ing game was featureless. Wheeling
had the game we'll in hand from the
first inning but the visitors gave them
a bad scare when they pounded Kane
in the fifth, and profting by errors
by Wheeling's fielders, made four runs,
and came within one of tieing the score.
England umpired the game, and was
far from satisfactory. He was away
off on balls and strikes, and made sey>
eral decisions which would have
brought in two runs for Franklin, and
which fell foot in safe territory. For
this he was warmly Kissed by the spec
tators. But these runs would net have
given Franklin the game, as Wheel
ing was hitting McDOugal hard, and
the home club was also roasted sew
eral times.
Toueyson did some tall kicking.
The bible tells that when Elijah as
cended to Heaven his mantle fell upon
Elisha. 1t might be said that when
Jack Darrah went up in balloon his
mantle fell upon Torreyson. FOR
senseless kicking and wrangling, he
takes the cake" apd the whole bakery
with it. 1t was due TO the frequent
arguments with England that the game
was prolonged until after ] o'clock
and many OF the spectators had TO be
satisfied with cold dinners.
Wheeling took the lead in the first
inning. when the champions went
up in the air, and allowed the home
club to score three runs on a hit by Ire
land. and a number of bad errors. The
visitors. in their half, also scored, but
did not show front in the game.
Wheeling added two more in the third
on an error by Heidrick and hits by
Glasscock and Kelhoff. One more
was added in the fifth on hits by Kerr
and Ireland. In the eigth four singles
were made. netting two runs
The visitors made four on the fifth
inning. Torreyson and Blair singled
and Heidrick stole, and Blair came IN
ON Davis throw to catch him. Rein
hart singled, scoring Heidrick. and he
came in on Ritz's double. In the ninth
two baggers by Remnant and Steen
resulted in another earned run. Inc

THEIR FIRST WINNING HERE
The San Jose Team Wins One of the
Series
Some Very Fine Baseball at Athletic Park
Yesterday-1cQuaid' Fielding and
Lohman's Three Dagger

The baseball at Athletic park yesterday
vas surprise to those who went down to
see the game. The surprise lay in the
TACT that the San Jose club won the game.
This is the first of the present series that
they have taken, and the home team was
beginning to think that they had a mort.
gage on the entire affair.
There we're many fine features in the
game Yesterday, notably the splendid
heldlng OF McQuaid, the left fielder for
the home nine. He made three long run.
ming catches that fairly brought down
the crowd, one OF them being scoop of a
chance that seemed absolutely impossi-
BILE at that distance. Then McHale's one.
handed stop Of fast grounder was
enough to put the crowd In the finest
kind OF humor. Altogether it was fine
game, though there were plenty of errros
and any amount of hitting.
Neither side scored in the first inning,
but the Los Angeles boys managed to get
two men back to the homo plate in their
half Of the second. Then there was
long rest OF five innings, neither side DO.
ing able to get man past third. There
was fine exhibition OF FEEDING on both
sides. for the pitchers were both hit free
ly. though the infeld kept the hits right
down. In their half of the seventh, the
San Jose men m inaged to get run,
klopf coming home amid great applause.
Again the Los Angeles boys failed in
their chance. but the visitors were not to
be denied in their time. They went right
to work and when the smoke cleared
away it was discovered that they had two
more runs added to their score. When
tho Los Angeles boys came up they had
blood in their eyes, and MIR. Hinckey hit
safely for one base. Then tho only Pete
Lohman came to the bat with do or.die
expression. and after one strike found the
sphere in hard place and sent it out into
the azure for three bases, while the
bleachers yelled in unison. Try as they
would. the colts could not get another
man over the bag, and San Jose went in
for their trial. They succeeded in the
finest kind of style. One man went out.
but the next man that came up whanged
the ball for two bases and came home on
another bit of the same kind. This gave
the game to the visitors. the first they
had won since they came down.
Following IS the score in figures:

In the field there is the same amount
of activity in the way of drilling new

prevailed for the past few months. Very
little prospecting is being done OH the

price of oil is so low that drillers do not
feel warranted in taking the chances of

the assurance of some return. Most OF

The program for the meeting of the

Hon. r. n. Bulla on The California
Legislature. The writer will refer to the
importance of state legislation, and of
the legislative department of state gov
errnment; admits that there is corruption
in the Legislature, but believes that evil
legislation is chiefly due to the incompe-
tence of Legislators; thinks that the mem
bers are not 50 bad as the popular est.

opinion is largely due to unjust criticism
by the press. Present di fficulties can only
be overcome by the election of able and
honest men and such men will not become

HENEV'S GOLD BRICK
Strict Secrecy Was Desired for Very Obvio
Deas0ua

Strict Secrecy Was Desired for Very Obvious
Reasons
CARSON, New. Nov. 16.-The most i'm
portant witness IN the Heney case today
was H. H. Beck, proprietor of the Reno
reduction works. He said that Heney
came to him August IA, 1884, and told
him that be and two or Stree others had
a mine in Silver City near Oest mine.
He wanted some work done and described
everything appertaining thereto IN con-
ditloa that the information was not to be
afraid of losing his lease of the zine.
Honey came next morning with lot of
stuff he said was gold ana shipped bar
to San Francisco cuntaining 272N ounces.
He heard Heney tell Oils about his
mine. Heney said he could fix the fine
ness of the bar at 800 fine. because he had
previously treated it. The stuff was
ored. There was no means OF determining
the value of the stuff brought to the
works by Mr.. Hsney: there IS no record
az all of Y hat was taken away by she de-
PENDANT A large proportion of this was
subsequently shipped to San Francisco.
The value of the bar shipped was esti-
mated by the witness at $685.. On Aug.
ust Is, two days later. another CONVERSE
tion was had with the defendant. BecK
was not certain abont the nature Of the
conversation, but on all such occasions
the witness Was urged to secrecy. Heney
brought two "ars to the works contain
ing 2l2 ounces and 800 OUNCES respectively.
The Approximate value the witness said,
was $4,000. On August ed the defendant
brought bar of pa ounces, 975 fine, val
ued at IS, 345.69. There are no further
entries on the record sho wing that the
defendant had pres snted more. The at
tention of til. witness was first drawn to
the deficiency on Mach %, 1895. and he
then telegrSphed to Superintendent
Adams to come to Reno at once, as he
thought he had clue.
