base on the error. Fitzgerald next went
out on bunt toward second. Perrine
gave the first sign of wildness in this in
ming, which eventually lost Reliance the
game, by presenting Shanahan with
base on balls.
Then occurred the grea test play of the
dav. Lockhead sent sky-scraper In back
short. and Arletf, who was playing that
position, ran backwards for about fifteen
feet and making great leap got the ball
as 1t neared the ground. The applause
that greeted this phenomenal catch was
deatening and lasted over five minutes.
This ended the inning.
In their half Reliance could do nothing
with Hughes delivery, two men being
iannec.
In the second inning the "Bre weres"
added run on a sacrifice, single and
Hennessy slow bunt to second.
The Oaklanders tied the score in their
halt, and it remained in that condition
until the sixth inning, when the Gilt
Edges touched P rrire off for four sim
giles. Harvey was first up and went out
on a hit to short. E. Hughes singles 10
right and Lockhead did the same, the
former taking second and third on the
single. Smith sent an easy one 10 Arlett,
who threw to Graceful Mcguire, who
dropped the ball, Hughes in the meantime
scoring. Hennessy flied the bag by sim
Cling past third.
f1tZgerald lined the bail to Arlett, who
blocked il, but before he could recover the
sphere Lockhead and Smith had tailed.
Shanahan ended the run.making by going
out on hit 10 second.
When the Reliance came to bat in their
half OF the sixth they connected with
Hughes for three swats, one of Jnem being
a two bagger. They should have scored in
this inning and would have done so but
for poor coaching. Nealon led off with q
single past the second cushion and Stulz
then hit to deep centor for two bases and
Nealon took two bases on the hit and
tried to score. Shanahan got the sphere
and threw to Lockhead at second, and
that player got the ball home just in time
to spoil Nealon's attempt. Dean also got
hit. but the next two men succum bed to
Hughes speedy pitching.
The Sacramentos added another in the
ninth, giving them a lead that Reliance
could not overcome.
Hughes was in splendid form, and the
hard hItters from across the bay were not
able to do much damage. He only allowed
them five hits and has record of ten
strike-outs.
Perrine was wild throughout the game,
and 10 this may be attributed one OF the
reasons of ReIiance's defeat.
Stanly caught one of the prettiest OF
games and capped the climax by getting
under an i'm possible foal in the ninth.

about their training quarters all day.
Smith took little exercise on the beach
and after his rub down loitered about his
quarters the remainder of the day.
Tim McGrath kept watchful eye on
him and would not permit him to be an
noyed by his numerous visitors. The
greatest confidence is expressed by his
trainers and those who have watched him
closely in his ability to win tonight.
Over in Alameda, where Dixon has been
prepared, there is but one sentiment ex-
pressed. 1t is all over but the shouting.
Dixon did little work yesterday, and
after his rundown weighed lis pounds.
His confidence in himself is so great that
he seems almost indifferent as 20 to-
nights bsttle. and neither his manager
nor trainers see m The least bit more ap-
prehenslve than he.
He does not care 10 talk about the fight,
but said:
my life and am confident OF winning to-
morrow night. l beat Smith once and
don't see why / shouldn't do it again. II
the public are figuring that l have gone
back they are making great mistake.
am far from being an old man and feel
that l have manv good fights left in me
yet. My friends need have no fear of my
condition"
The foundation for the assertion that
Dixon has "gonc back" seems to be the
fact that he has trained TOR such great
mum ber OF battles that il has impaired his
constitution. While il is true that Dixon
has had more than $40 fights, by far Inc
greater mum ber were simply limited
round goes-most of them being but four
rounds. and for these he never trained.

STOCKTON, CAL, Oct. 3-One OF the
best base ball games played here In year
took place at Good water Grove to-day De-
tween the Oympics of San Francisco and
the Stockton nine. 1t was the second
game of the new league series and was
anybody'S game up to the DeglnHlnR oi
the ninth inning. Then the boys who
wore the winged 20" had one moro tally
to their credit than the local ball-tossers,
the game having been stru gle from the
time the first ball was pitched. The grand
stand and bleachers were crowded with
spectators and the snappy play orought
cheers from the crowds OF enthusiasts.
The first two innings were close, the score
standing nothing to nothing. In the third
inning the Stocktons made one tally, and
they placed three more to their credit In
the fourth, by clever work, amidst great
cheering.
The Olympics were in luck in the
fourth, for Eagan, who held down the.
second cushion, made a costly error that
let two men In another get IN on hit hy
one of the San Franciscans. In tA
sixth and seventh they added two tallies
each, placing them in the lead. De Costa,
the Stock toms twirler, had his eye and
arm with him and pitched a splendid
game. When the Stockton men went to
the bat at the beginning of the ninth
inning they had defeat staring them In
the face. but they made grandstand nm
ish that kept the crowd yelling. Seven
runs on timely hits and costly errors gave
Stockton the victory in the ninth, and De
Costa did not let the visitors get another
run. The score by innings tells the story:

at the wharf by a delegation of clergy
men and laymen. An escort was
formed by the ST. Paul Guards, Capt.
O'Gorman commanding. The bishop
proceeded to the cathedral, where a
TIE Deum was sung and he made a
short address. When Bishop Grace took
into his hands the administration Of
the diocese, the episcopal city, ST.
Paul, contained but two Catholic
churches, the Cathedral and Assump-
ton church. There were only twenty
seven priests to administer to the
wants Of the Catholics Of the whole
diocese; who at that time numbered
10000. From the Missouri to Lake SUI
perfor. there were thirty-one churches
and chapels and ninety seven mission
stations. Intercourse was rendered
the more difficult as travelling had to
be done by horses alone, there being
no railroads.
OF schools of the higher grade there
were four. The labor demanded OF
the bishop was immense and his time
was increasingly occupied, but he was
not discouraged by the work, and de-
voted himself with marvellous zeal to
it's accomplishment. In 1875 the vic
ariate of Northern Minnesota was Gre
ated by the pope, and Bishop Seiden-
busch was chosen as it's first bishop.
At the same time the labors Of Bishop
Grace were further lightened by the
appointment of Rev. John Ireland az
his coadjutor Bishop Ireland had
been named by the pope for the see
of Nebraska, but, at the personal sug-
gestion of Bishop Grace, supported by
a personal visit to Rome, the holy
