RED AND GOLD BITES DUST.

Alumni Take Tumble Out of the High
School.
Twenty to 10 was the way the
alumni dressed the high school down
in great big 10-inning three-hour-.
and-a-quarter game of ball at the
Twelfth street park yesterday after
noon-and evening.
1t was the first time the thing had
ever been done and when Gen Charles
Dack, field captain of the winners.
got down town in the evening he
found a telegram from President
Young, of the National league, await
ing him dated at New York 1l:10
p M. and worded as follows:
dear Charley: Cong ratulations,
old man. Have been sitting up wait
ing for the returns from your game
and am tickled to death at the out
come. Send list of your men. A
number of my managers have their
eye on them. Yours. etc
AS predicted the contest was the
highest one yet and it took 10 innings
to settle it 1t was a see-saw from
the fourth inning and it became SO
exciting at the finish that the sun
which had started to set at the Begin
ming of the ninth, paused on the horiz-
on and remained looking over till
Russell Hampton put the last man out
on first. 1t was noticed that he had
been wearing one of the high school
colors.
Clean Game.
In addition to being a tight game it
was a clean one. There were no err
rors to speak of except those made by
the umpire, Prof. Albee-and they
were nearly all spoken of at the time.
There were features also. among which
may be mentioned Campbell's beauti.

the umpire. Channon's catwheel,
upon which Sears rode safely into
third base Russell Hampton's audac-
ity in talking back to his big brother
and dozen others that stirred up
the fans and kept them in continu-
Gus uproar. Mitchell and Sears, the
alumni's battery, and Carse and Por-
ter, who put up the article for the
high school, all did nice steady work
for which they deserve all credit and
a percentage of the gate receipts.
The latter were very heavy, consider
ing the crowd. Porter showed real

right hand were bruised by an awk.

A Bold Burglar
Scared by a Parrot,

Los ANGELES, June 49, Several bold
daylight robberies have been committed
in this city in the past two days, and in
one instance the burglar did not get the
best OF it. A talking parrot belonging
to Mrs. Louis Rehwald OF 1876 South
Grand avenue yesterday frightened a
marauder SO badly that he fed from the
house, leaving q lot of valuable plunder
which ne had collected. During the ab-
sence OF Mrs. Rehwald the thief broke
into the house by forcing the front win
dow with chisel. He collected num-
Der OF articles, which he put on table
preparatory to wrapping the stuff into a
bundle; but, evidently desiring to COM
piete his work, he opened the door OF
another room and started in. A parrot
was in a cage in that room, and as soon
as the bird saw the stranger it screamed
out: bad boy! Bad boy! Bad boy 7.
which 30 upset the thief that he lost no
time In getting out Of the house, forget

The age or size OF their quarry is of
little moment with these wolves, as
they pull down and devour alike cows,
calves, steers, mares colts and geldings.
Their attack is always strategical and
systematic, one portion OF the band
assaulting from the front and fastening
on TO shoulder, ear or muEzle, and thus
giving the big, wild gray dogs who arc
ever closing in from the rear the OBJ
jective opportunity Of bamstringing the
victim. Once hamstrung it is all over
with the quarry, and the entire band
feasts at leisure. Mr.. Vincent has often
seen on the Powder River ranges the
mere empty hide and polished bones of
what was once lusty steer or polished
gelding as sad souvenirs OF the raid OF
gray wolf band.
The cattle herds are open and easy
prey to the bold canine bandits, the cat
