Clouds 8, Machine Shops l. That was
the score hung up after the conclusion
of yesterday mornings game at Four
tenth and r streets. 1t was an even
struggle up to the sixth inning, when
Clouds spiked the pan.
Kestler, the south-paw twirler for the
Clouds, was at his best, and but one
safe hit was secured off his delivery.
Lou Payne did great work behind the
bat, and he was cyclone on the bases.
Christie, the machinists' twirler,
pitched good ball in the early part OF
the game, but four hits, mingled with
many overthrows in the sixth, shat
tered his chances of winning.
The batteries We're Kestler and
Payne, and Christie and Grioux. Score:
Runs-Clouds 8, Machine Shops l. Hits
Clouds 10. Machine Shops l. Errors
Clouds 2, Machine Shops 10.
The Courthouse Tax-Eaters and the
Lawyers met in battle array at Four
tenth and r streets yesterday, and the
former won by a score of IL to IL
There was good crowd of men pres
ent, but the fair sex were not repre-
scented, which fact is supposed to have
had a depressing effect on some of the
members of the legal profession.
Lou Norton of the Capital Park po-
lice umpired the game, and the lawyers
backed up their numerous objections to
his remarks on the ground that they
were incompetent, irrelevant and inn
material" and demanded that their ex-
ceptions be noted down whenever they
were overruled.
There We're number of phenomenal
features prominent among which
was Sheriff Johnson's high forehead.
Tom Ahearn of the Tax Eaters made
a long running catch that ELECTED
cheers; and on the lawyers side Will
lam Henley, John Catlin and c. I.
Hughes distinguished themselves.
Although the Tax-Eaters won the
game, some of them were not satisfied
with Hilbert's boxwork and declared
that if he doesn't improve in his pitch
ing they will trade him off to the Sec
ond Street Terriers for one of their
kids.
The next game between these rival
Courthouse outfits will be to determine
which shall pay for a French dinner for
the entire gang.
There was rafting game of ball
between the Young Sacramentos and
the Western Hotels yesterday, the lat
ter bringing up the long end by a

For the Young Sacramentos, Hillman.

men, Miller and Futterer.
This is the ninth straight game for
the Westerns. They would like to hear

HAUsER's WATCH.
He Thought It Was Stolen, but It
E Wasn't.

A. Hauser was one of the fans who
went out to Oak Park yesterday to see
the Sacramentos wallop the San Fran
cisco baseball aggregation. When he
started from town he carried valuable
gold watch and chain, but when he
reached the ball ground he was minus
both.
Quite naturally Mr.. Hauser assumed
that some light-fingered picRpocket
touched him off on the crowded street
car. He said he would give a neat
sum to recover his watch, and even go
so far as to ask no questions. The
watch was found at the gate by a
young man named Patterson and
turned over to the police, who notified
the owner, and he called and got it.

The Carmichae1-Bragg Trouble.

In the report of the Carmichael Bragg
case it was stated yesterday that the
defendants (CarmichaeD attorney said
that his client had been maligned by
Carmichael" while the report should
have read 'by Bragg''-a very palpable
mistake.
Mr.. Carmichael denies having de-
clared that he would cut out the heart
of Bragg. He says his remark was to
the effect that he ought to cut out the
hearts of such as had been trying to
injure him by circulating lying reports
about him.
