yesterdays BASEBALL

The seating capacity of the Athletic
park was taxed to its utmost yesterday
to accommodate the crowd that turned
out to see the ball game between the
Los Angeles and Trilby clubs, and they
were we'll repaid for coming. The Tril-
bys started out like winners. Shaw,
the first man up, was thrown out by
Farley, Alexander made hit, Moore
fumbled Nettles' long enough to let him
get to first, Gardner hit safe, and Alex
ander was thrown out at the plate by
Whaling. Walker then hit a ball over
Swans head for a home run, scoring
Nettles and Gardner. Mari hit safe,
but Perkins struck out, and the Trilbys
had three to their credit
The Los Angeles boys were shut out
for the first three innings. Shaw scored
a run in the second inning on two hits
and an error, and Carroll crossed the
plate in the fourth with the Trlbys' fifth
run. In the Los Angeles boys half of
the fourth inning they scored seven
runs. Swan, the first man up, struck
out: Moore hit for three bases; Kay
mer was thrown out by Mari; Guercio
hit safe; Tyler took first on an error OF
Marr's; Farley hit safe. scoring Moore
and Guercio. Tyler and Kenll scored
on Whaling's double, and Whaling on
Lohman's hit, and on Perkins bad
throw Lohman scored. Swan made the
third out, but seven runs had been made.
In the seventh inning the Trilbys scored
two more runs, and that was their last.
In the sixth inning for the Los Angeles
boys they added six more to their score
on three hits. three bases on balls and
an error, and they again sent three
more across the rubber in the seventh.
At the end of the Trilbys half of the
eighth inning Umpire Decker called the
game on account of darkness with the
score 16 to 7 in favor of Los Angeles,
Both teams hit hard, but put up a rag
ged game in the field. Whaling, Moore,
Lohman and Alexander did the best
hitting for their respective side. Until
the fourth inning Shaw pitched an ele-
CANT game, but couple of errors by
his support appeared to rattle him, and
almost all the Los Angeles team hit
him safe. Anderson, as usual, made a
couple of phenomenal catches in left
field. Knell pitched a fine game after
the second inning, and used excellent
Judgment in working the batters. Both
umpires gave perfect satisfaction, and
almost everyone expressed themselves
as pleased with the double umpire sys-
tenn The complete score follows:

THE PIGEON FANc1ERs

Recently, says "Dalziel," an exhausted
pigeon fell into the hands of the New
York police. 1t was found to have a
quantity of diamonds attached to it's
body, and had evidently been set free
from the deck of an ocean steamer by
some one who wished to bring diamonds
into the United States without payment
of duty. Several diamonds were tied
under the birds tail, few others were
around it's neck and two more made fast
to each of its legs The weight of SO
many diamonds was beyond its strength
and it was unable to continue it's home
ward flight. The bird is believed to be
the property of a regularly organized
band of smugglers, who take the birds
to Europe and when on the homeward
voyage and near land tie to them da-
monds purchased abroad and set them
free.-The Feathered World.
We learn, says the Medical Press and
Circular, that there is medical practi-
toner in Scotland whose area of prac-
tice Is SO wide that he has resorted to the
method of using fa0ming pigeons for the
purpose of assisting him in his daily la
bors. When, for example, he is called
upon to visit patients far distant from
his home he takes with him a number of
his homers. On reaching an urgent case
and having prescribed he forwards his
prescription by means of a pigeon. AS
soon as the bird reaches it's loft do
mestic carefully extracts the message
from under it's wing and hands it to the
doctors dispenser, who makes UP the
prescription and dispatches the medic
inc to the patient. Another convenient
arrangement. as we learn. resorted to
by this enterprising practitioner is to
leave one of his pigeons at the house of
far distant patient. whose case may
demand his early attention. When in
such an instance the doctors presence
is urgently demanded pigeon is dis
patched with a message, and the doctor
is soon on his way to the patients house.
Clearly, by this arrangement, fruitless
visits are avoided, time saved and trou-
BILE reduced to a minimum--Feathered

BAYARD DIMES WITH rHnQunn11

Julian Ralph cables to the New XorE

Ambassador DaJar sss.s he guest e the
queen, was, as all such occasions aros
strictly formal with the entire absenco
of anything like speeches or even COM
versation and without any direct or me

simply the dinner itself, there Is no
doubt the presence of Mr.. Bayard On,

learn that the queen and the ofi-
cials at Windsor undoubtedly knew
when the ambassador was invited that
the day was the one especially Amert.
can festival Of the year. but, whetnef
sadors visit, they certainly knew II
fully and beyond the necessity OF any
further enlightenment after Mr.. Bay
ard reached Windsor, for he took with
him one of the elaborate souvenir
menus delivered to the guests at the
American society dinner Thanksgiving
night and personally presented 1t 70 her
majesty. The souvenir contained por-
traits of the queen, President Cleveland
and various American worthless. patrt-
otic sentiments and character1sttcalty
American quotations. The menu In
cluded all the usual Thanksgiving dishes.
Turkey, cranberries, Boston baked
beans and pumpkin pie, and both sweet
and hard cider, were down on the list
The queen graciously accepted the
souvenir and carefully put 1t away,
presumably in order to peruse It at her
leisure. and. perhaps to study up ON
American cookery and customs.
The dinner at the castle was a pain-
fully formal affair. The menus were
printed on decorative porcelain tablets,
placed about the table Roast turkey
was one of the dishes and 1t is pleas
ing and reasonable to suppose that Il
was there as a compliment to the
queens American guest and a recogni-
ton of Americas national festival.
After the dinner was over the queen
had few words of conversation with
each of her guests. She Is not equal to
much fatigue nowadays, SO these Occa-
sions are becoming much briefer and
more formal than perhaps they other
wise would be.
There is no doubt whatever that the
invitation to Mr.. Bayard was intended
in more than formal way and Is under
all circumstances, regarded as a direct
evidence of the queens friendly good
will toward the American people.

CoLoRED MEN REVOLT
Do Not Propose to Be Sold Out by Would
Be Republican Bosses

The colored citizens are in revolt
against the few would-be bosses who
tried to sell them out to the Republican
party in the national campaign, and Q
movement has been started which is
crystallizing into the organization Of an
independent colored voters club.
When the Afro-American club met in
this city the first indications of the spirit
of revolt were manifest, but in spite of all
the more self-respecting of that organi-
zation could do it could not prevent 1t
from falling into the hands of the bosses.
Now these gentlemen have split off from
the "black push,' as the Republicans
and the Times have in thinly disguised
contempt dubbed the colored machine.
and meeting to perfect the organixa-
tion will be held at Panorama hall, No.
320 South Main street tomorrow night.

THE KENNEL

More than usual interest is taken
among sportsmen al present in the COM
ing field trials of the Pacific Coast Field
Trials club, to be held at Bakersfield on
Jan. 18th prox., says the Breeder and
Sportsman. The number of entries al
ready filed is now larger than at any
previous event under the auspices of that
organization. In particular the entries
for the all-age stake promises to be not
only greater in number but the quality
and caliber of the entries promises to be
of such excellent character that this par
ticular event will in all probability be
remembered as one of the great field
days in the history of the club. Reports
from reliable sources state that birds
are plentiful, and will be in condition to
bring out every quality and good point
expected from the dogs by the most
sanguine lover of the sport. All told,
from present indications the coming
meet is looked forward to with every
expectation of the most satisfactory re-
suits.
I have just returned from California,
and find that the state as a market for
eastern bred dogs is practically ruined
by the action of a few unprincipled
breeders who have shipped diseased and
inferior stock to that state. One west
ern man sold two champion st. Ber-
nards that he was afraid would die at
his place. and when the purchaser
"kicked" about their condition, he de-
liberately lied and said they were all
right when shipped. AS if dog could
get rotten and loose seventy-five pounds
on a three days journey.
Another very rank deal that I know
of is the case of young breeder in San
Francisco. He paid a well known
eastern breeder $3.50 for a st. Bernard
that was guaranteed to make a Pacific
coast beater, if not world beater. Well,
I saw this wonderful dog about a month
ago, and it was about the size of Cor
don setter.
Another thing that shippers should be
careful about is the weight of the crate,

THE WHEEL

When a wheelman is escorting a lady
over the country roads on pleasure
tour, he must understand that her safety
lies in his hands, and he is entirely re-
sponsible. If she attempts to ride down
q steep incline and suffers accident, he
is to blame. He must watch her con-
stantly, pick out the smoothest piece
of road for her comfort and guard her
from any stray dogs that might pass
their way The task is congenial one,
but carries with it many responsible
ties.

bicycle for an original Seeding chry-
santhemun, to be exhibited at the fall

season. This chrysanthemum is to be
solid dark yellow variety, as near the
Stearns color as possible, and is to be
called "The Yellow Fellow after the
popular name Of the Stearns bicycle.
Little has been heard in the press Of
Tom and Nat Butler since they arrived
in France. This is in keeping with the
methods used by the orange riders since
their advent on the American path.
Never have they been known to brag of
an achievement, and very few, indeed,
are the interviews that have been pub
lished with them. In France today they
are riding, and riding fast. Each day
their condition improves. The brief res
pite from active work and the change
of climate has put new life into the boys.
They are dogged in their determination.
Their idea is to wait until they are en-
tirely fit and then the effort will be made.
When Tom Butler rides he rides to win
II is the same with his brother Nat. Be-
tween them they will come pretty near
outwitting the clever French riders, If
any tricks are resorted to on the part
of the fast foreigners. If the Butler boys
win in the face Of the competition that
is being arranged for them. 1t will be
the greatest triumph in cycling history.

In bringing financial loss to many who
breed and raise horses is their failure to
gauge correctly or approximately the
likes and dislikes of those who buy
horses Too many consider what they
themselves fancy, and never so much as
consider in their own minds the likes and
dislikes to whom they will want to sell
or to the probable requirements of the
general market That which any pro-
ducer produces for sale to others should
always conform to the real or fanciful
requirements, regardless of his own
personal fancies thereabout. One of the
shoals that the bark of many small
breeders and farmers stick on is the So
called all-purpose horse, and the best
way to breed him. To place the all pur
