BY the Highbinders winning yes
terdays game the series between
Spokane and San Francisco broke
even. The score, 10 to Z, tells its
tale of a smuggling match, in which
McCloskey's men got the better OF
the argument. The visitors had 16
hits and the locals 10 to their credit.
The game was also replete with err
rors, the Indians having six scored
to their account.
1t was Zearfoss' turn to test the
law yesterday. He made a sorry fall
ure Of it and his bluff was promptly
called by Detective McPhee and four
constables. who marched the stalwart
catcher off the grounds. The trouble
arose in the seventh inning. when
Zearfoss took exception to one OF
Umpire Warmers rulings on a ball
which had retired HIM. Trouble was
avoided by the arrival of the police.
Zearfoss was assessed IS for his at
tempt.

SPORTING NEWS.

Jim Corbett's stan put in an ex-
ceedingly busy hour at Crolrs gar
dens yesterday. Their work resem-
bled a real prizefight, as the ex-
champion went at his sparring part
ners with a vim and landed some
hard blows on them, and they did not
show much inclination to mix with
them.
Jim weighed 1854 pounds after
the work. He still continues to
drink two quarts of mineral water
each morning, and seems to think it
benefits him greatly.
Like Jeffries. Corbett receives
much mail, many of the letters be-
ing from cranks. Yesterday he claims
to have received ia, in which some
cautioned him to call his bout off
with JEFF or there would be funeral.
Jim only smiles and shrugs his
shoulders when he IooKs at them.
