and last nights performance had several
surprises for the patrons that gathered
to witness the latest offering of the Dot
Rarroll stock company. The first was
the sight of Miss Karroll herself In
straight part, as she assumes the role OF
May Ford, playing II with her usual force
and skill She received a beautiful bou-
quet after her entrance.
The title role Is In the care or Miss
Purnell and she adds another to the long
line OF splendid roles which she has as
sumed this season and II Is easy to see
that there Is no member OF the company
that Is any more popular with the pa
irons OF the theatre than this young woxn-
an and none more deservedly so. AS Vfr-
ginia Gray she has a number OF very diff
ficult scenes and In each case she In
equal to the demands upon her skill rising
to the occasion whether the situation de-
mand q light comedy touch or the simula~
tion Of the depths OF dispaIr.
John Lane Connor does not appear
many times but be makes a favorable i'm
preston as a manly lover OF Virginia on
those occasions. James Kennedy, az q
dare devil war correspondent, has q part
that suits him down to the ground and
" Is needless to say that he makes the
most of his opportunities as usual.
The polished but diabolfcany treach-
erous General Bensinger is well portrayed
by Mr.. Neumann. who toward tho last
OF the play is greeted on his appearsncs
with a perfect storm OF hisses from the
lads in the gallery.
David Walter, whose work OF last year
will be remembered by many. has q
strong part as Ed Clayton. the spy and
traitor TO both sides. who fs for himself
first and foremost and at all times

telle. does a good bit OF character work.
and Joseph King, l.. Roden Hall. d. Bag
non and Master Charles Kennedy have
congenial parts and make favorable I'm
pressions. the work OF D. Bagnon as Sam
being particularly good.
The story OF the play is best told by the
actors but briefly IL deals with thel owe
affairs OF Virginia girl for an old play
mate. who has remained faithful TO the
MON and Is assigned 10 the T. S. g.
Minnesota in Hampton Roads about the
time the Merrimac met her death deal

interesting manner and when the naval

scene In time 10 prevent the traitorous
general, who is credited with designine

There Is no doubt In the minds OF many
but that Providence should have had yes
terday's game and had II not been for
an error and some poor Judgment the
score would have been differently re-
corded.
The game was not Of the kind TO arouse
the same enthusiasm that has character
lied some OF the recent events In ball

ficient belief In the refgninE good fortune
of the team to send many TO the bleach
ers and to make them cheer like a crowd
at a college event. The cheering
was led. however. by one flushed
faced, rotund individual who seemed to
have some money on the game and there

win the victory.

the length OF the game was absent yes

crowd during the game. in two OF which
Rock figured very prominently. The frst

GARDNER WILL MAKE WEIGHT.
Lowell Boxer Says He Can Do 133
Pounds as Required by Britt.

1t now appears that matchmaker
Jim Coffroth of the Yosemite Club
has succeeded in landing Jimmy Britt
and Billy Gardner for the December
date of the club. Coffroth received
word from Gardner last night that Ae
would do 1873 pounds at 6 o'clock for
Britt and now all that is needed is
Britt's consent to the match.
Britt will probably do business with
the Lowell lad, now that the latter
has decided to make such a low
weight. Coffroth was not successful
in his quest for Britt last night and
therefore was unable to straighten out
the match. Coffroth and Britt will
probably have a conference to-day
and the match is likely to be made
without further ceremony. If details
are arranged Gardner will come i'm
mediately to this city and prepare for
the battle.
Coffroth also had a heart to heart
talk with Teddy Murphy, manager of
Battling Nelson. Murphy agrees to
meet Britt at 1872 pounds at o'clock
if he is successful in getting rid of
Corbett. If the Gardner match falls
through there is still a possibility of
securing either Corbett or Nelson to
meet the native son.

Commuters Fall Down Twice
When They Have a Chance
to Settle the Struggle
STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

Visions of the futtering pennant as
it waves in the breeze began to grow
dim in the eyes of Peter Lohman yes
terday afternoon at Oakland, when
Charles Irwin spiked the rubber in
the sixth inning. Nor were Peters
spirits cheered in the least during the
rounds that followed, for that run
which the Seals leader scored was
precious one and the lone point for
the day. The game was called at the
middle of the eighth on account of
darkness.
Joe Corbett was the cause Of the
downfall of the Commuters and his
mastery box work may prove their
undoing in the run for the flag. Cor
bett was at his best yesterday if ever
he was in his life. Every Commuter,
with the exception of the sprightly
Mr.. Francks, was at his mercy
throughout the struggle. Errors gave
the Commuters couple of chances,
but the hit was lacking.
Schmidt displayed a little bad judg-
ment in the sixth, when the fatal run
scored. Irwin opened up the round
with a two-bagger against the center
field fence, and Van Buren, laid down
bunt. Schmidt had oceans of time
to catch Irwin at third, but he over
looked his chance and threw the ball
to first. Then Waldron popped out
fly to Kruger. which the latter drop
ped and the game was won.
Schlaf1ey's interference cost the
Commuters a run in the fourth.
Francks had singled and had been
forced at second by Dunleavy, who
stole second. Schlaf1ey was up and he
sent a slow one to Van Buren,. Van
ran for the bag with the ball and
Schlafiey gave him the shoulder and
then grabbed him. In the meantime
Dunleavy scored from second, but the
umpire made him go back
In the fifth the Commuters had a
full house and only one man gone. but
still they could not coax a run
through. Kruger was safe on Goch-
nauer's tumble and Devereaux hit
slow one to first. Van Buren threw
the ball away over Corbett's head and
Corbett walked Stark. Schmidt bunt-
ed out to Van and Ganley struck out.
so the royal chance was tossed away.
There was ginger and excitement
galore in the battle, with every fielder
playing his best and pulling off bril-
liant plays. Corbett worked SLOWLY
and thus delayed the game so long
that it was impossible to play the nine
innings. The score:

Young Corbett is still plugging dill
the ocean beach in an effort to take off
the few extra pounds of weight with
which he is burdened. 1t was given out
at his camp yesterday that the former
champion weighed about 135 pounds.
He still has six days to take off five
pounds, so that he will have to get rid
of little less than a pound each day
If he will accept that as his allotted
task. He is devoting himself to road
work almost entirely. Yesterday he
went out on the highway and ran and
walked till the perspiration fairly
poured off him. After a brisk rundown
and a rest he entered the gymnasium
for a little work. He took on Billy Otis
and the pair went several hurricane
rounds. He then toyed with the weight
and wrist machines till he satisfied
himself that a days work had been
done
The little boxer and his trainer, Har-
ry Tuthill, state positively that the
weight will be all right and that Cor
bett will be ready to stow the Battler
away when he gets started. Corbett
has all his old-time strength and hit
ting power if he can reduce naturally
and not have to resort to the baths the
day of the fight.
Battling Nelson is anxiously await
ing the tap of the gong for his coming
battle with Young Corbett. He has
been in active training for two weeks
and is in excellent condition. This does
not keep him from hard work. He
realizes that the battle is the one of his
career and he intends to work hard up
to the day of the fight. He was on the
roads of Marin for sixteen miles yes
terday and returned looking as fresh as
a daisy. In the afternoon he spent more
than an hour in the gymnasium punch
