HE talent wasted all its hitting abil-
ity in Thursdays game. That could
] be easily seen by the turn the per-
formance took yesterday at Recrea-
ton Park Instead of many bingles and
dummy work on the bags the fans were
treated to a little pitchers battle, sea-
soned by some fast and sensational field
ing. Score: Oakland 2, Portland 1.
Mr.. Lee handed the Brownies a few
they could not assimilate. The lazy man
with the artful swing and the slow and
tiresome motion was in his element He
would have given the Brownies the blank
only DR.. Moskiman put little additional
steam in one Of his whips to the first
bag during the progress of the eighth
inning and this alone broke up the win
ming combination.
Loucks, the deep sea twirler with the
famous "spit ball''-calcuated to dimin-
ish batting averages and break batsmen's
hearts-was not such a howling success
as he has been touted. He appeared for
the first time at the Eighth-street lot
yesterday and the Cripples got him when
they wanted him. He used a fast ball
most of the time and did not show any
curves. But for some cracking good field
ing the Cripples would have made him
look like a dub.
Dr. Moskiman had a disastrous day at
third and committed two errors that were
bad ones. To offset this he landed square
ly on the solar plexus of the leather
thrice and they were all good ones. He
brought in the first Cripple tally in the
first by scoring Willie O'Hara from sec
ond base, where he landed by meafis Of a
hit and sacrifice.
A two-sacker of the real Texas League
kind from the bait of Peter Lohman
chased another home in the fourth, the
one that won the game.
The Brownies did not make good till
the eighth, when, with a man on second
and third and two gone to the bench,
Francis soaked the leather out to left
garden, scoring one. The other player,
Anderson, was nailed at the rubber, and
all was gloom for the Brownies. The
score:

4 OS ANGELES, Sept. 4-Frankie Neil
of San Francisco, champion bantam
l. weight pugilist of the world, defeated
Billy de~Coursey of Los Angeles to-
night in fifteen rounds. De Coursey was
not knocked out, but was so clearly de-
feated that to avoid the possibility of an
accident, Police Captain Auble instructed
Referee Eyton, to stop the fight and give
a decision. Eyton promptly declared Neil
the winner.
The fight was interesting at all stages,
though not as exciting as the crowd ex-
pected, owing to the peculiar style of
Neil, who is essentially. a body fighter.
The boxers were at close range from the
beginning to the end of every round. Neil
was the aggressor at all times, and while
De Coursey made one of the gamest fights
ever seen here, the little champion held
him safe at all stages.
There was a great deal of clinching and
covering up at close range, but whenever
the referee separated them, Neil was
upon his man Immediately. He would
shoulder into clinches and in the break
away place his head upon De Coursey' s
chest and slammed him on the body with
both hands. After De Coursey had been
severely punished in the body and
knocked down several times he assumed a
decided crouch, but in doing so left his
face unguarded to NeiPs assault of short
arm blows Neil fought like a champion
at every stage and even though he had
De Coursey groggy many times and sent
him down for the count repeatedly, he
took no chances of one of the local man s
wild swings.
A crowd of five thousand spectators
cheered the decision of Referee Eyton.

stand.
The apparently unbeatable Fresno

ite. Sam Hoy drove the favorfte Demo
mia, to victory IN the 2:13 class pace.
In the running events Cambaceres, win
ner OF the closing event in a sensational
nose finish with David and Iras, was
the only first choice to get home In front
Backers of George G. had little opportu-
nifty to place their money. A few pools
were sold, with the son of Homeward
bringing 20 and the field 4, but later, to
increase the volume Of business. he was
barred In the betting. Deputy then
brought 20 against Z for the others-not a
vast improvement. AS usual, Albertson
made no mistake with George G, scoring
in straight heats, the best time being
2:15l2. Deputy seems to have gone to
pieces. He was third in the first heat and
fifth In the following heat. when he was
drawn.
By some clever driving Fred Ward Sc
cured second money with Jupiter B, with
third money going to the stylish and
handsome looking Rosie Woodburn, over
which Carlin held the reins.
As the result looked more difficult OF
solution, poOlselling was more brisk on
the pacing event, for which a field Of six
started. Demonia sold for TO- Colonel
Smith and the field 4. After Bankers
Daughter had disposed OF Colonel Smith
for the first heat there was change.
The field now went for Is, Demonta
brought and Bankers Daughter 5. Sam
Hoy had apparently been adopting Geer's
tactics, for DemOnia gave Colonel Smith
his quietus and gathered the next three
off the reel.
The only running affair to cause any
enthusiasm was the finish in the mile
selling run, which Powell plucked on the
last stride with Cambaceres, getting the
verdict by a face. A whisker behind him
came David S, and, an eyebrow farther
away, Iras was third. The winner ruled
equal choice in the betting with ulowahO.-
With twenty yards farther to so Iras,
which was pilOted by Hildebrand, would
have won. +. 4. MULHOLI.AND.

~HE semi-finals Of the mems singles
tennis tournament were played on
the Hotel Rafael courts yesterday
and as a result Alfonso Bell, the
Southern California champion, and
Percy Murdock of Alameda will meet
on Monday in the final. BY far the best
match of the week and the only one that
has gone the full FIVE sets was that in
which Bell met and defeated Grant Smith.
II was a battle of two wonderfully
clever net players, who were about as
evenly matched as two players could be.
As to condition and stamina there is no
comparison between the two. Bell was
Al fresh at the end of the five strenuous
sets as when play commenced. On the
other hand Smith, after the second set,
was tired and winded and had lost con-
siderable Of his speed.
In the opening set Smith was at his best
and clearly outplayed his opponent, win
ming 6-2. In the second set it was nip
and tuck until Smith lost a game on his
own service which enabled Bell to win
out, Ca The third set found Bell some
what improved. while Smith seemed tiring
and netted easy balls. Bell won this set
handily, 6-2
The seven-minute rest after this set
braced Smith up somewhat and by clever
brought the score to sets all by win
ming, 6-3.
The fifth and deciding set was going
along evenly until Smith lost the third
game on his own service when he had a
lead of 40-15. This turned the tide in
Bells favor, giving him a lead of 81.
With victory in sight Bell put more dash
into his play and his opponent was done
for. This was one of the best matches
seen at San Rafael in years. The score
was 2-6 Ga, 60, 3-6, 6-2
In the other half of the semi-fnals
Percy Murdock beat r. N whitney in
straight sets. The score was 6-3, 3d. Ga

AGED PIONEER IS Hailed
INTO COURT al SAN JOSE
Begins Admission Day Celebration
Too Early and Is Charged With
Disturbing the Peace.

SAN JOSE, Sept. 4.-Thomas Dunbar,
who came to California in 1874, was be-
fore Justice Dawson this morning on a
charge of disturbing the peace. He halls
from Halfmoon Bay and came to San

tivities on Admission day. He started
out to see the sights Thursday night and

threatening to whip three or four men in
a North Market-street saloon.
Dunbar is SS years Of age and came to
this State with the Murphy party. He
helped to raise the bear flag at Sonoma

the Donner party. Dunbar, who is hale
and hearty, carries with him manxan-
tia cane cut from the grave of Marshall

naming. to celebrate Admission day.
