Fight Pictures Are a Success.
TRIPLE BY HALEY
CINCHES GAME
FOR OAKS.

Yesterday saw the Oaks resume their
winning stride at Idora Park and get
away with the winners end of s TO
score. 1t was a good game to watch,
and UP to the eighth was close enough
to hold the attention of the fans, who
turned out in very fair weekday num-
bers.
Johnny Hopkins put another feather
in his cap by his pitching, and while
hit as hard as Nagle was, he kept such
wide intervals of time between the safe
ones that they counted for very little
for the Angels.
Bernard picked out the first ball
over and batted a long double to Kru-
ger, took third on Cravath's out to
Smith after Gochnauer fouled out, and
scored on a two-sacker of Dillon's
which kicked up the chalk along the
left foul line.
Oakland promptly tied the score,
Smith made an infield out and Van was
saved by Gochnauer's error. Kruger
tapped one to Nagle, but in an effort to
catch Van at second Walter made a bad
throw and failed in his purpose. Heine
Heitmuller almost uprooted the lanky
twirler with liner and Kruger was
safe at the second bag. Hackett's long
fly to Bernard let in Rip. and Kruger
made the third out at the plate in an
attempt to score on Devereaux's lively
bingle to center.
When he came up in the last of the
sixth Heitmuller cut loose with a two
sacker along the left foul line and
went UP on Tom Hacketts perfect sac
rifice. In a like situation the day be-
fore Brick DevereaLa won the game
with a timely wallop, and yesterday he
repeated the stunt with SO hot shot
to left field that neither Gochnauer nor
Bernard had time to get out of their
tracks.
With the score 2 20 / in the Com
muters' favor in the eighth, Kruger
broke a long interval of batting I'M
activity with the third of the doubles
along the third base line. Heine drew
a pass, and again Hacketts sacrifice
sent each one up a box. The Red Dog
was hit in the middle of the spine by
pitched ball and the naishap filled the
bases. Mid driving clouds of dust
which the west vino mixed in with
the afternoons sport, Haley tripled
over Cravath's head, clearing the bases.
Francks hit to Nagle, who was in a
state of mind where he didn't care
much. and he threw the ball past Nc
Clellan to the fence. allowing Bliss.
running for Haley. to make Oakland 5
last tally.
There was stir in the camp of the
southerners in the ninth. but after
Ellis had singled and scored on Nc
ClelIans unlocked for three-sacker it
died away. The score:

Remains Here to Make n Match with
Heavyweight Tommy Burns.

Los ANGELES. Sept 13.-Tommy
Burns check for $4,000 was refused by
the stakeholder tonight because the
paper was not properly certified by the
bank officials. Proceedings looking to
the binding of a match between Burns
and OBrien to be held some time this
fall by a new club. which proposes to
erect an arena at Arcadia. on Lucky
Baldwin's ranch were postponed until
tomorrow. Promoters of the match
say it is on the square, and Tommy
Burns believes that the offer is made
in good faith. The success of the Gold
field match has caused fight promoters
in this neighborhood to build high
hopes on the prospects of the sport this
winter and the offer of $4,000 for a
Foreground contest between the heavy
weights is not considered too much
The announcement that the match
is under way was received by the nght-
ing public here with considerable dis
credit, but If the color of real money
is shown by Burns tomorrow. people
will begin TO sit up and take notice
No one doubts Jack O'Brien's readiness
to put up any reasonable amount at
any time for a match with Burns or
any good man. O'Brien postponed his
trip to Australia in order TO make the
match.
Burns said today: This offer is
on the square and a certified check for
$4,000 will be put up some time to-
morrow. l can't say just who are in
terested in the new club. besides Lucky
Baldwin. but they are all local people
with the exception of some Tonopah
men. If the match is made an arena
will be built at Arcadia large enough
to seat 10000 people. My side bet OF
$4,000 goes with O'Brien if he cares to
cover II"

There undoubtedly would have been
many more entered in the contest had
it come at some other time. The holi-
days during the week of Labor day and
Admission day were too close a fore
runner. Many of the owners could not
resist the temptation of making ex-
tended trips at these times, with the
result that now they cannot spare the
time
The present indications are. however,
that quite number will leave the city
early Saturday in time to witness the
Gymkana games. Others will leave
later so as to be at Del Monte Sunday
morning to take in tile races.
TEST NOT A HARD ONE.
The test is not hard one and should
make the trip very enjoyable as the
runs and tours committee has insisted
on seven hours being used in covering
the distance between San Francisco and
the rendezvous.
Undoubtedly some will take advan-
tage of the extended stop allowed at
San Jose to make the trip from that
place to Del Monte at a faster clip. but
they will do this at the risk of being
arrested, which will disqualify them
The officers of the club desire those en-
tered to keep within the speed limit as
prescribed by law, and speeding will
cup If perfect score should be made
ELABORATE GYMISANA GAMES.
The Gymkana games will be most
elaborate. The sport enjoyed at the
last event was so favorably received by
the members of the club that the com
mittee has decided to make special en-
deavors in this line. The main event
in the races will be the contest for the
Del Monte cup, which was won two
years ago by George Fuller AS this
cup has to be won twice to be retained.
1t now comes up again in competition
The appointment of the officials for
Saturday and Sunday will be made to-
night at Del Monte by the runs and
tours committee. c. A Hawkins will
be in charge on both these days
The track has been overhauled by the
hotel people and put in the best condi-
ton, therefore some very fast time
should be made in the races. This track
is noted for being one of the fastest
on the coast. There IS some talk of
banking the turns for future contests.
This would make IL perfect
Just what the games will be on Sat
urday no one outside of the committee
knows, but it is limited that there will
be some events which will be given for
the benefit of the women.

never to give way an inch in the hot
test of the engagement. The movements
of his ever-busy head are also shown

Cans is with the gloves His every
move is graceful. and the force OF his
blows was shown by the movements OF
Nelson's head and BODY whenever he
was hit
The group of spectators applauded
Referee George Siler as he appeared in
the ring The pictures show the vete-
ran official ever on the alert and in a
position where he could see every move
of the fighters.
The pictures will have their first
public presentation tomorrow afternoon

LIGHTHOUSE MAN
HANGS HIMSELF.
spEnIAI. DISPATCH no THE GAIL.


VALLEJO, Sept. 13.-Leaving no note
behind to tell of his reason for ending
his life, Frank A. Burt, an employe of
the United States Lighthouse Service,
with headquarters at 1892 Golden Gate
avenue, San Francisco. was found dead
in q bathhouse on the beach below the
starr Nils, in South Vallejo. today.
Death was caused by strangulation,
and the space between the beam to
which Burt had tied rope to commit
the deed and the floor was SO short
that he had to lie over on his face to
draw the rope tight in order to cause
death. Burt often visited this city on
lighthouse business, and came up from
san Francisco yesterday. He pur-
chased return ticket on the steam
boat line, which was found on his per-
son. How he came to find such an un-
freauented spot and why he committed
suicide is unknown to the Coroner's
office. Burt must have ended his life
some time last night. A book showing
that Burt had $500 on deposit in the
First National Bank in San francisco
was found on his person. The suicide
IS about 35 years of age.
