TRY FOR RECORD WEDNESDAY
Tozer Seeks to Annex Worlds Pitch
ing Honors Now Held by
Chesbro

Ralph Tozer did not try for the
worlds pitching record yesterday after
noon as 1t was discovered that the
record for no scores was forty eight
instead of forty-ive innings and the
fact that Tozer pitched Saturday made
1t appear a dangerous undertaking to
try at the five innings, which would
have been necessary to break the
record.
Tozer will attempt the smashing act
Wednesday and will go after two
records, that held by Jimmy Whalen
on the Pacific coast for forty-five in
nings and the worlds record for forty
eight innings held by Chesbro of the
New York Americans.
Whalen made his record at the be-
ginning of the present season when he
pitched five nine-inning games without
allowing a run, Chesbro set the record
when playing with the Pittsburg Ma
tionals in 1908. Tozers best effort is
forty-forty innings and to beat the
world he must toss shut-out ball for Ave
more innings.

AIT THE THEATERS
Mason

ben Hur," his friends and enemies
and the retainers Of the house of Hur,
together with the steed of the chariot
race, camels and the oriental trapperies
arrived in the city yesterday on a spe-
cial train over the Santa Fe. The ar
rivals were met at the depot by the
Pioneer Transfer company and all
available wagons were put at the dis
posal of this organization. The work
of transferring the effects of the COM
pany to the stage of the Mason opera
house was quickly gotten under way.
At the theater all was apparent con-
fusion, but in reality, owing to the
wonderful system of the organization,
everything moved in machinelike man
ner. The stage director of the COM
pany, A. L. Rankin, was in evidence.
Mr.. Rankin has the control of the COM
pany, and 1t is due to his efforts that
the performances of Ben Hur" are
even and perfect. No other organization
on the road is kept UP to such constant
pitch as the Ben Hur company. All
the machinery of the play in the chariot
race scene and the Star of Bethlehem
was in place in the theater when the
company arrived. This machinery is
carried in duplicate as 1t would be i'm
possible to install 1t after the arrival
OF the company. More than ninety men
were employed at the theater all day
yesterday and last night installing the
effects of the company. These men,
whom the audience never sees, will
work night and day with the organi-
zation until they close the engagement.
AS the company is large considerable
trouble was experienced by many Of the
members in finding suitable hotel ac-
commodations. The company carries
twenty horses, three camels and an i'm
ported ballet of Italian dancers. These
girls have been in the country a short
time and speak little English and had
considerable difficulty in getting To-
Gated. The entire organization as seen
on the stage of the Mason will number
800 people. A private performance will
be given at the Mason this morning. In
order that everything will be in readi-
ness for the performance tonight.

ANGELS WIN ONE,
TIE UP ANOTHER
DARKNESS ENDS SECOND GAME
IN SEVENTH INNING
Warren Hall Lets Seattle Down With
Two Scratch Hts-Toman's
High Throw Was
Costly

There has been some little excite
ment at Chutes park in one way or an
other during the past, but for extra
ordinary attractions nothing like yes
terdsy's performance has ever come off
in Los Angeles.
Manager Morley had double header
as the attraction and before the time
for the first game a good sized crowd
was gathered in the grandstands and
bleachers. In a nerve-racking battle
the Angels won the opening game by a
score Of two to one and when the Sec
ond game was called in the seventh
inning because of darkness, the teams
were tied with n score Of / to 1.
The big do of the day came at the
beginning OF the second game when
Tim Flood, ably assisted by "Jud''
Smith, attempted to reduce the facial
proportions of Umpire "Slats" Davis
to conglomeration commonly known
as minced meat. The police figured in
the limelight for the moment and the
beligerents were hurried off the field,
Tim being sent to the police station
where he was booked on charg of dis
turbing the peace.
FITbL 1dFNG
In the initial proceedings Warren Hall
was pitted against Shields and more
than held his own, letting the Siwashes
down with two measly hits. An error
and passed ball were responsible for
the one run of the mud-hens and the
big Seraph slab man was tossing shut
out ball with an assortment of curves
that were beyond the Seattle limit.
Blankenship scored Seattle's run in
the second, when he reached second
base as Smith threw the ball over
Dillon's head to the right field bleach
ers, Streib went to bat and as he swung
wild at the third strike, Eager al
lowed the sphere to roll to the grand
stand, Streib taking second as Blanken-
ship made a successful rush for the
plate.
Nothing was stirring for the locals,
apparently, but in the sixth they pulled
out of a tight hole in fast style. Ben
net singled to center and Hall fumbled
Kane's bunt, allowing the fielder to
reach first, Bennett going to second.
Walters sacrificed both men base
and Blankenship walked. Things ap-
peared dubious, but Smith gathered in
Streib's drive and threw Bennett out
at the plate, Eager getting the ball to
first ahead of Streib.
Great was the ovation handed to
"Kitty" Brasher in the seventh when
he lifted one of Shields choice ones
over the center field fence. The crowd
went wild and settled down for the ex-
ira innings that were not long coming.
1t was nip and tuck to the last Of
the eleventh, when Smith broke the
game up by slashing a ripper to center,
scoring Bernard, who had reached sec
ond after Floods sacrifice following
Bernie's single.
Shields, the serpentine wonder.
pitched good ball, but the Seraphs
earned the runs that won the game.

PLAYER ATTACKS
UMPIRE IN CAME
BASEBALL DIAMOND IS SCENE
OF FIGHT
Tim Flood Strikes J. Ira Davis During
Contest Between Los Angeles
and Seattle Clubs at
Chutes Park

A double-header was the advertised
attraction at Chutes park yesterday
afternoon, but the side attraction was
not billed and came as a disagreeable
surprise to the large audience which
filled the grandstand and bleacners.
During the second inning of the sec
ond game the audience was traatel to
the exhibition of prize fight, with
Second Baseman Tim Flood of the
Angels and Umpire j. Ira Davis as the
principals.
The difficulty started after Davis
called a ball on Nagle Flood made a
remark which was inaudible to the
audience and Davis ordered him off the
field. Flood pulled off his playing mitt
and threw 1t at Davis.
Flood followed this exhibition by
walking over to Davis and striking
him several times in the face. Mem
bers of both teams gathered about
Davis and Flood and 1t is said that
Jud Smith Joined in the fight and struck
Davis behind the right ear.
Police and special officers cleared the
field and arrested Flood, who was taken
to the police station and booked on n
charge of disturbing the peace, secur-
ing his release by giving $40 bail.
viii Not Enter Complaint
Davis was palnIully injured Dy Jne
blows which were rained upon him, but
continued to umpire until the seventh
inning, when 1t became so dark that
the game was called.
Davis said last night that he would
not prosecute Flood and Smith, but
would telegraph a report to President
Bert of the league and he was confi-
dent that neither Flood nor Smith
would be seen in uniform again during
the season.
Davis and Pacific coast league play
ers have been on unfriendly terms for
some time and it is charged by the
players that Davis has taken more
money from them In fines than all CT
the other umpires together
The difficulty between Davis and
Flood Is said to be the result of an
old grudge extending back five years
Davis denies that there was any rea-
son beyond Floods actions OH the
diamond that caused the trouble be-
tween them and asserts that he ordered
proper and insulting remark at him.
This was the second time during
Davis present trip south that he has
disciplined Flood during the game. The
first day Davis umpired Cn this trir
he fined Flood $5 and ordered him of
the field.
Manager Morley OF the Los Angeles
club expressed regrets that the affair
should occur upon the local field, but
1t is beyond his jurisdiction 10 deal
with and will be subject for consider
alton by league officials.

Grand

Dora Thorne, at the Grand this week,
would be wholly enjoyable were it not
for the fact that the leading woman
Dora-insists upon repeating the state
ment that she Is low born.
She insists, however, If she is little
shy on blue blood she is just as good
as anybody, which is doubtless very
true, but the fact of her low birth is
given undue prominence, for she really
looks, acts and dresses as If she were
somebody, and if it were not for the
insistence with which she assures the
audience that she is not three karat
that fact would never be suspected.
The character work of e. M. Crane
as the peasant father Of Dora Thorno
was especially good. The broad York
shire dialect was delicious, and he
looked the part of the lodge keeper,
who Is jealously careful of his little
daughter, who was intrusted to his
care by her dead mother.
The manner in which "feyther' and
all the other mannerisms of the York
shire countryman roll from his tongue
is, indeed, delightful. and he was ap-
preciated by the large audiences which
witnessed the first two performances
yesterday.
Miss Cuba Niblo as Dora was clever
and acted the simple little Yorkshire
lass to perfection. But the part of the

part. and if she were one-half as
wicked as she acts she would be shut
up for life. She is called a snake in

she did.
There is a slight feeling of resent
ment that Dora did not call for the

after an absence of two years before
the mast. especially as he was the
murderer of her father -in-law. 1t may
he due to the fact that he also was
low born that he escaped the gallows.
There are no shootings and only one
murder, which makes 1t quite tnnocu-
Gus. The play could with safety be
guaranteed to harm no one, however
young and unsophsticated.

Burbank

"The Judge and the jury" by
oliver Morosco and Harry Cottrell,
opened the second week of its exist
ence yesterday with two performances
which packed the Burbank theater to
the doors. Many were turned away
The audiences cheered the more stir
ring scenes until the building shook
and even the press agent lost count of
the number of encores.
There has been a Los Angeles in
terest aroused In this drama which is
almost paternal and its fame has gone
abroad until eastern managers and
papers are clamoring for details. It's
popularity has grown to tremendous
proportions within one weeks time
and II is safe to say that next Satur-
day night will know very few people
in Los Angeles who have not seen a
performance of the play.
One week OF constant work on the
drama has much improved 1t. The
changes are not material so far as the
dialogue and the action is concerned
but the roughness which is always
found in the first performances of
any play has been worn off and the
company work together with much bet
ter effect.

Second Game

In the second game Nagle went in
for the Angels and C. Hall trotted out
for Seattle.
Cravath cannot lose his aggravat-
ing manner of tapping the ball over
the fence and as it was Sunday and
the crowd was larger than usual, the
celery compound consented to connect
with the top of the bowling alley in
the Chutes amusement grounds. The
run was needed as Jimmy Toman. who
got into the game by reason of the
pugilistlc aspirations of his team mates,
threw C. Halls grounder past first base,
allowing Frary to score.
There was a general switching In
the second inning when Flood and
Smith were ordered off the field. Dillon
went to second, Brasher was sent to
third and Toman went to short. The
combination worked to perfection with
the exception of the run which came
from Jimmy's bad throw.
Russ Hall did a good bit of work In
the fifth when he stabbed Cravaths
line drive which zipped OFF like
single.
Goodwin took Nagle's place after the
fourth inning and Dolly Gray went in
to bat for Goodwin in the seventh.
Umpire Davis called the game in the
seventh on account of darkness.
