day for Los Angeles, where he will
dispatch the fields for the next four
weeks Dick Dwyer will resume work
at Oakland tomorrow.
Sidney Bender will ship Lord Mel

to Bennings the coming week
George Mountain, who has made an
enVlaole record in the saddle at Los
Angeles, viii give the racegoers here
an opportunity to judge of his ability
at Oakland tomorrow.
c. Smith and Big Bnl' Knapp each
put two winners over the plate.
Billy, Magrane now makes the en-
gaGements for Jockey BulIman. The
latter has settled down to business and
will be big factor in the saddle from
now on.
Garnet Ferguson has disposed of Sir
Appleby to Z. Tierney. The colts wind
is touched and Garnet grew weary of
tinkering with him.
Charley McCafferty claimed The Ha-

Admitting that Pinkerton was for

get a good position, rode Arisbe
through the deepest going on the far
turn for fully 100 yards. This GER
tainly about equalizes things.

Perhaps if w. DAILY could have kept

by Elliott Modicum could scarcely

NATIONALS WIN
FROM ANGELS
Bunch Their Hits in Second
Inning and Thereby Secure
Il Lead Over Their Rivals
BIG CROWD ATTENDS
The Play Is Fast and Snappy
Throughout the Progress
OF the Interesting Game

Los ANGELES, March 12-Chicago's
National League baseball team played
the first game of the season at Wash
ington Park to-day against the Los
Angeles Pacific Coast team. The Ma
tlonals won by the score Of 4 to 2, but
it was hard fought battle all the
way
The Nationals punched their hits in
the second inning after two men were
out and scored three runs. LundKren
pitched the first five innings for Chi
cago, allowing but three hits. Wicker
relieved him and was batted rather
freely. Wheeler pitched six innings
and Gray three innings for Los An
geles.
Notwithstanding the increased price
of admission and the many counter at
fractions to-day. 2500 people attended
the game. The playing OF both teams
was snappy and fast and remarkably
free from errors. Chicago's infield did
pretty work, but no better than the
home team. At the bat the Nationals
were stronger and won the game by
punching their hits. The same teams
will play again tomorrow.

PARKER rs HIT HARD
Retires in the Fifth Inning
After Being Hammered for
a Total of Eight Bingles

The ball tossers in blue who represent
the Preside turned another trick yes
terday afternoon on their own grounds.
The Stanford Berkeley alumni were the
victims for the second time within a
few weeks, and the score was IS to g.
the biggest that has yet been piled UP
by Wagner's aggregation.
As usual, the place was well filed
with officers, soldiers and fair repre-
sentatives Of the Presidio, who did
nothing but yell for the men in blue.
For four innings it was a beautiful
/ game. Then the soldiers began to take
long and fast rides on the offerings Of
Paul Parker, the former Stanford star,
and then it was curtains.
With two men on the bags and the
score 3 to in favor of the college men,
Walter Nagle tore off a two-bagger to
the right field fence that brought both
men in. Then followed a bombardment
that was awful. Every man on the Pre-
sidio team got jerry TO the kind that
Parker was passing out, and hit after
hit SKINNED through the infield and
away out to the outfield In all nine
men made the circuit of the bags and
eight of them hit safely
Parker then quit the box and went
out TO center field. Atkins came from
behind the bat and went into the box,
Elston going to the big mitt and Marty
Murphy to second base. The change
was all right for while, but in the
eighth round the soldiers attacked the
offerings of Atkins, and aided by four
bases~on balls and a bunch of errors by
Keifer scored seven more.
The college tossers were all in after
the fourth inning and never had an
other chance. Nagle was steady
throughout, and his support grew bet
ter as the game increased with age,
ElstOn was the star on the alumni
team. He soaked out two safe hits and
played a great second base, besides per-
forming well behind the bat
Atkins had a world of speed and wor-
ried the soldiers when he got 'em over
the rubber. But he was shy on COM
mand and could not locate the plate at
the critical moment. Besides. he hurt
his finger in the first inning and this
interfered with his pitching. This aft

Bryan Shakes Hands With John D.
Rockefeller.
(New York World.)

When Mr.. Bryan attended the Fifth
Avenue Baptist Church, in New York,
it fell to the lot OF John d. Rockefeller
to pass the plate to him. Mr.. Bryan put
a dollar bill on the plate without look
ing up. Those sitting nearest to the two
men watched their movements intently.
When the service was over Mr.. BRYAN
was introduced to Mr.. Rockefeller in the
lobby OF the church. AS they approached
to shake hands they eyed each other
from head to foot. The mutual scrutiny
was so keen and so significant as to at.
tract attention They exchanged COM
monplace greetings, but continued t.
study each others faces. The powerful
features, eagle gaze and burly physique
OF the radical leader contrasted striking.

emphasize that the engagements between
the opposing vessels off Port Arthur,
subsequent to the torpedo attack, have
involved the forts Of the place only incl
dentally. 1t was worth the while OF the
Japanese admiral-well worth his while
to take the chance of damage from their
fire, in order to injure the enemy's fleet,
because of it's supreme Importance to
the general issue: but it was, and is, in
nowise worth while to bring ships into
battle against forts merely in order to
lnjure them, especially when, as at Port
Arthur, they have a plHnging fire. The
principal work there, to the eastward of
the entrance, has an elevation OF 400 feet
above the roadstead outside, which was
the scene of the recent cannonade. Port
Arthur ia useless, except as a home for
the Russian fleet, and the forts are use
less except to secure that home. No in
Jury that could be done them by his ships
could possible compensate the japanese
admiral for a half-dozen disabling
shots. AS a general proposition, ships
and land Notifications do not contend on
equal terms, either as regards their rela-
tive Importance to the issues OF war,
or to their susceptibility to vital injury.
Ships are much more useful and much
more delicate than land works.

as a Kentuckian he felt disloyal to drink

that is calculated to kill mule. He was
shot at by the captain of the boat. he said,
and his mate had been so badly treated and
refused permission to go ashore that he
purposely put himself in the way of the
bullets, but they didn't strike him. Instead
of being given transportation he was given
work, and now he is a resident of the city.
