OAKLANDS PLAY POORLY.
Wretched Exhibition of Base
ball Put Up by Church
City Men.
Imperials Were in Winning Form
and Had Twelve Runs to Spare
at the End.

After the fourth inning the Imperials
sim ply walked away from the Oaklands in
the California League game at the Six
teen nth-street grounds yesterday. Up TO
that time it was a pitchers contest, in
which honors were evenly divided between
Kelly anu Russell, but in the latter portion
of the contest the big Oaklander let down
lamentably and seemed to lose all control
of the ball. The support he received.
however, was enough to discourage any
twirier. The visitors played wretchsdly,
and the nine errors charged to them do
not begin to cover the multitude of sins OF
which they were guilty.
Kelly pitched gilt-edged game for the
Imperials, allowing his opponents but six
hits. Three of these hits were punched
in the seventh inning, but sharp field
work prevented the scoring of run.
The Oaklands made their only tally in
the second inning on triple by Johnson
and single by Shea.
The Imperials did not begin to score
until the fourth inning, but from that
time on they worked with a will. WiIds
completed the circuit and earned a tally
in the fourth on his double and KeIIvis
single. In the fifth base on balls. a
single and errors by Arlett ard Fitzpat-
rick netted three more. Four runs were
added in the sixth on two bases on balls.
a single, an error by Russell and a wild
pitch. In the eighth a doubls. three
singles and four errors enabled the I'm
periaIs to score five more unearned runs.
Following is the official score:

Miss Freitag Gives Tests Before the
SpirituaIists' Association.
The regular afternoon and evening
meetings of the California State Spiritual
lists Association we're held at Golden
Gate Hall yesterday, but failed to attract
large audiences in spite of the moderate
price of admission. This induced the
chairman, II. c. Wadsworth, to comment
unfavorAbly last night upon the apathy
displayed by the great mass of the COM
munity toward things spiritual.
Miss Freitag. the medium, gave many
remarkable tests at both seances, and sue
ceeded in discomfiting more than one skep-
tic, to the no small delight of the audi
ence.
An incident somewhat out of the com.
mon order marked last nights meeting.
The medium was replying 10 questions
written upon closed slips of paper, the an
swers presumably being obtained YER
bally or otherwise from attendant spirits
wiling to communicate with the writer's.
She suddenly announced that one of these
slips contained remarks equally foolish
and insulting to herself, and requested the
audience to decide as to whether she
should read them or not. The audience
having resolved affirmatiyely, the closed
slip was handed to gentleman in the
hall who avowed himself to be skeptic
Thereupon the medium read as follows:
This medium is in league with the devil.
The whole thing is a fraud. Tom THUMB
The skeptic Immediately opened the
paper and found 1t to contain the above
words, exactly as the medium had stated.
The writer, whoever he was, declined to
reveal his identity.

ANOTHER SUCCESS.
Locke's Speciai Excursion to Camp
Taylor Yesterday.

Locke's speciaI Excursion to Camp
Taylor Yesterday.
Notwithstanding the threatening wealth
er the people f1ocked to Locke's Camp Tay-
lor excursion yesterday. There were two
special trains going up, and although all
the people could have been provided for
on one train, Mr.. Locke had advertised
that he would accommodate the public
with two trains-one at A, NJ. and the
other at 10 A. M.-and he fulfilled his
promises to the letter. The service was
tirst-class.
The ride was most enjoyable one. In
fact, it is one of the most pleasant short
railroad trips out of the metropolis, and it
Is probable Mr.. Locke will arrange for
another excursion to Camp Taylor within
a couple of weeks.
His outings have passed the expert
mental stage and have come to be recog-
nized by the public as the leading attrac-
tions, in their way, offered to people who
enjoy getting out of town, but who object
to the disagreeable features of the old-iine
Sunday excursions. Yesterday everything
went without hitch, and those who par
ticipated in the trip appreciated the fact
that everything possible was done for
their comfort.

American college football team-arrived
at the Palace Hotel yesterday from New

to this City, preparatory to starting on a
tour of the world for sightseeing, pleasure
and incidentally for hunting and fishing.
The Count says he will visit Japan, China,

shooting those countries afford. He does
not like Mexico, the only redeeming fea-

Young VoIlner Held Up.
BERKELEY, CAL, Sept. 20.--Ed Voll-
ner, prominent member of the North
berkeley Fire Company, had an expert
ence last night which he does not care to
have repeated very soon. He was driving
into Oakland by the way of Shattuck ave-
nue. and when near one OF the Portuguese
vegetable gardens in the suburbs of Berke-
icy was neid up by man who demanded
money with which to buy a meal.
Vollner declared be was "broke." but
said be had something in bis rig which
might do as substitute for a meal.
Handing the highwayman a flask of
liquor, he drank nearly all of 1t. put the
bottle into his pocket and told Voilner TO
drive on. The frightened fireman whipped
up MS animal anu was soon out of 81 ht,

NOW DO you explain your speech before

manded Mr.. Everett
But Senator Denison did not explain it. He
simply got from under the Perkins landslide
and reiterated that he was going to support
MI. Perkins and that Mr.. Leavitt would sup
port Mr.. Perkins. Then he left.

change OF heart at primary election where
he was being attacked than it is to explain his

Frank NJ. Leavitt who will be nomina-

statement that Senator Denison had
pledged him to Perkins.

that he had not word to retract. He
said he knew that the story of Senator
Denison having been pulled down was not
true, as Denison is not built way.
