MEN OF THE
DIAMOND IN
GOOD FORM
Percentage Of Four Baseball
Teams : Senators Still
Lead Their Rivals.

During the last few weeks the Senators
have forged to the head of the column
and they now occupy a safe first place, at
least for some few weeks. Their strong
opposition to leadership has been the
local aggregation, but Hank Harris men
have not demonstrated any great power
of late. The blanketing hoodoo which
covered the Wasps for several weeks and
brought them from first place to second
with big drop was removed last Satur-
day, but it returned the day after with
awful persistence.
Santa Cruz and Oakland have been play
ing most exciting and interesting ball
ever since the beginning of the four team
league. Ewing kept his eyes peeled for
the best men of San Jose and Watson
vile teams and the Dudes now present
a strong front. Within a month they
have advanced up the column at sur
prising rate of speed and If the late sue
cess continues the Crabs will have to
fight a hard battle for third place. San
Francisco is by no means certain Of its
hold in the place position. The next few
weeks may see some pronounced changes
right down the line of percentages
The standing of the teams in the Cali
fornia league is as follows:

A league whose games are attracting
attention all over the Tehachapi district
is the San Joaquin Baseball Association.
There are siv clubs, representing Merced,
Bakersfield, Fresno, Visalia, Hanford and
Selma. At present Merced has big lead,
but the rivalry among the clubs is GER
tainly intense If the enthusiasm Of the
townspeople is any criterion.
An unverified rumor has been f1oated
that Manager Tuttle of Santa Cruz may
take his team to Vallejo, changing the
franchise. There does not seem to be
much foundation for the story, however.
Jack Mccarthy and Pat Meany will
soon be grabbed by local teams.
An interesting match will be that be-
tween the Heesemans and the California
Volunteers, which will be played next

audience that completely filed the

of the play being laid near the little
village of Suwanee in Florida, and
hinges on the Clayton family, one of the
Oldest in the district. As for the plot
itself, one gets mixed up and wonders
what is coming next. There are 30
many complications that arise from
time to time that lead one to believe
that the play was strictly melodram attic,
but such is not the case. 1t is full of
love and pathos, intermingled with
bright comedy that cannot but make the
play q big success wherever it is pre-
sented. The scenery is su perb and the
play ie mounted in an excellent manner.

President Taylor presented Governor
GeeI, who was greeted with prolonged
applause and delivered his address in
his usual happy style. Reform was

suggestion made that the present legis-

dress teemed with sarcasm and good
sense. Referring to the committee

regents of the state, recommending that
the board be composed of not more than
three members, to be drawn from the
counties in which the institutions are
located. He favors the appointing of a
committee to confer with a like body
from the state of Washington, relative
to the salmon industry. Also proposed
two more judges of the supreme court.
Another matter mentioned was that OF

wagons. A law should also be passed
