Comes to Mr.. A. A. Winfree
in the Shape of S1O4.

Tuesday morning when Mrs. Alex
Winfree left home to come into the
city to attend the meeting of the
Woman's Christian Missionary Asso-
citation her husband handed her S1O4
in money and his bank book, telling
her to deposit the money in one of
the city banks. Mrs. Winfree occu-
pied seat in a car with Miss Jones,
of Pembroke. When the train
reached Hopkinsville the two ladies
got off the train, leaving their bun
dies behind them, and it was several
hours before they realized that they
had ever had bundles In their possess
sion. When Rev. ]. w. Cant, Of
Elkton passed through the aisle of
the car he noticed couple Of bun
dies lying on the floor, which he
picked up and handed to the CON
ductor, who indiferently tossed
them up into the bundle rack over
head. After Mrs. Winfree realized
that she had lost her husbands mon
ey that he had given her to deposit
in his bank she telegraphed Capt.
Robinson, conductor of train No. 81,
and reached him somewhere between
here and st. Louis. He wired back
that he had both the ladies' bundles
and that he would send them back
on train No. 81 yesterday afternoon
due at Sis. Mr.. Winfree, who is a
at Casky, is to be con
on his good luck, and no
doubt thinks he owes a good treat to
both Mr. Cant and the conductor of
of No. 81.

Local golfers are much. disappoint-
ed because they will not have the
chance to compete in the Pacific coast
amateur championship tournament,
which will be held this year on the
links of the San Rafael Golf club at
San Rafael. So great is the distance
that it is feared that none of the South
ern California players will be able to
attend this meeting.
Walter Fairbanks, the Southern Cal
ifornia champion, went north short
time ago, and it may be that he will be
there to represent the Los Angeles
club, he being a member of that or
ganization. 1t is possible, too, that
Nat Moore and L. w. Redington of
Santa Barbara may go up to try for
the cup. The big tournament will be
held on April 26 to 20.
This will be the fifth annual meet
ing of the association. The first was
held at San Francisco, when E. r.
Folger of San Francisco was victor
and John Lawson of the same place
runner-up. The second year Fair
banks won the event at Los Angeles,

BERKELEY WINS
FINAL CAME

Special to The Herald
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, April
| Sin a hard-fought baseball game
Stanford lost the second game this
season to the University Of Califor-
mia by score of 4 to /, giving the
Berkeley men the series.
Newman, Californias freshman
pitcher, was in the box for the blue
and gold and Capt. Strout was at the
receiving end of the state university
battery. Sales pitched and Stott
caught for the Cardinal sphere toss
ers. The day was ideal for the ma
tional game and the Stanford bleach
ers were crowded to their utmost ca
pacity with yelling partisans from the
two universities. The California men
showed much more experience and
outplayed their opponents at every
stage of the game. At the bat the
Stanford men were notably weaker
than the Berkeley nine and only got
five hits off Newman, while hits were
made off Sales by the student players
from across the bay.
The first scoring was done by STAN
ford in the third spasm, when Stott
reached the initial bag on a little
bunt toward third and then stole Sec
ond. Chalmers advanced him to the
third sack and then Dudley the right
fielder, connected with the ball and
brought Stott over the plate for the
first tally of the game. The Stanford
rooters went wild, but Capt. Strout of
California pulled his team together and
put an end to the scoring. The next
tally work was done by the men of
the blue and gold when Sweeney
walked and was brought in by Caus-
ley, who lifted out a two-bagger.
Causley came in a moment later on
an error of Bells. In the sixth Cali
fornia got one more tally to their
credit when Gum scored on three
bagger of Sweezey's. The final rubber
tapping was done in the eighth, when
Graham hit a three-bagger and came
in on a little hit OF Strout's. making
the score to /.
The lineup was as follows:

been formally opened today, when prac-
tice games were played by all the i'm
portant professional and college clubs.
The weather in this city was decidedly
cool, but this fact did not deter many
thousands of enthusiastic lovers of the
sport from journeying to the Polo
grounds to see the New York National
league team even up scores with the
fast nine of Yale university for a de-
feat suffered last spring, or crossing
the North river to witness the defeat
of the Jersey City Eastern league team
at the hands of the New York Ameri-
cans. Princeton, Harvard, Columbia
Cornell and the University of Pennsyl-
vania were among the college teams on
the diamond today and the results in
each case were satisfactory to the
coaches who have the clubs i'm hand
and are preparing them for the inter-
collegiate championships later in the
season. Results:
