The Richmond baseball team closed

The Richmond baseball team closed
the season of 1907 yesterday by taxi
ing two games from the Danville team
In rather easy fashion. The first was
won by a score of 4 to 1, and the Sec
ond by s to 0. Both games were mark
ed by some very pretty playing. the
fielding of both sides being clean and
fast, and at times sensational. Fisher
and Gettig made the sensational plays,
the Danville shortstop going high into
the air and knocking down Wallace's
screamer and catching The ball be-
fore 1t touched terra firma. Gettig's
catch was even more sensational. In
the third inning OF the second game
he leaped into the air and pulled down
Fishers terrific line drive with onS
hand. and but for quick throw.
which was trifle high he n.s.lld
have doubled Doyle at first.
In the first game Gettig ran up on
F'lowerss slow bounder and grabbing
it on the run threw the runner out
at first with notaa second to spare.
The drive would have been beat out
nine times In ten.
In the first game the undefeated
New Englander. Mr. Stackpole, pitched
for the locals. while "Buck''y Flowers
sped em In for the Danites. The stead -
mess and superb control which are
iStackpole,s characteristics as a pitcher
enabled him to win his game easily.
Flowers pitched effectively, SO far MS
allowing few hits goes, but he was
Wild and unsteady; his bases on balls
and daring base-running by Ricf-5
rnond, aided by two o r. three ~ Id
pitches. enabled the Colts to score their
runs. Although Danville secured ten
hits off Stackpole. they We're so we'll
scattered that but one run resulted
and one of the hits and that run We're
the direct result of o dumb play and
an error.
Richmond got but three hits OF
Flowers, but these came opportunely3
and dovetailed In with passes and Wild
pitches In the second game Revella5
was ptted against Lavinder, the spit
ball artist. The smiling fellow was not
hit at all hardly. except in the third.

PORTSMOUTH, VA, September I'll
Norfolk and Portsmouth closed the
season here to-day by an even break
in doubie-header. The Champions
won the first handily by score of
to 8, while the Truckers took the sec
ond, to 2. While some good plays
were pulled off by both teams during
the afternoon. it was evident that
the result III each contest was proble-
NAUTICAL until the last man was out In
the ninth inning.
Although the Truckers seemed hope
lessly out of the first game. they gave
the Crew scare in the ninth and came
within one run of tiefng the score.
With Clark on first base. Mcmahon put
the ball over the lcft-field fence for
u home run.
In tho second game the Truckers
started out with rush, and sent two
men across the rubber before the side
was retired. Norfolk caught UP in
the fifth, and it was then nip and tuck
until the eighth, when Mailman
brought in the run that won the con-
test. Loos made the hit that sent
Mailman home. Bertram and Carter
were the opposing pitchers in the
first game, and Bertram had much the
better of the argument. He was sup
ported perfectly. while the men be-
hind Carter played like a lot of school
boys at frequent stages. McMahon's
home run drive was the feature, and
he received the glad NIT from the
Portsmouth fans. 1t was the first tina
this season that player had parked"
the ball on the Portsmouth field.
Loucks and Loos opposed each other
in the second game, and the honors
went to the Portsmouth twirler. He
allowed but five hits, struck out eight
men and gave one base on balls. Six
hits were registered against I4oucks,
who struck out only three men and
passed one. Loos also made the hit
that won the game. and he received
the better support.
While some Of the Portsmouth play
ers appeared Indifferent about the re-
suit OF the games, Clark kept them at
it, and for this reason alone can be at
tributed the good showing that Ports
mouth made.
Tho absence OF Sullivan, who left
last night for Binghamton, N. y,
weakened the Truckers and caused a
change In the lineup. Cook was played
at third base, Sturtevant at first, and
pitcher was In the outfleld In each
game. While Portsmouth had lost
twelve straight games moro than fif-
teen hundred people saw the doubles
header and they cheered the Truck
ers whenever they made a good play
or a run. Dad Fender. the manager
of the Champions, had n seat in the
grandstand, where q member of the

EPISCOPAL CLERGYMEN PREACH
ON NEED OF BETTER MANHOOD

DR.. Peabody preached last night in
Trinity Church, using the fourth, fifth,
sixth and seventh commandments as a
text. In discussing the commandment
dealing with the observance Of the Sab
one of spiritual activity while 1t was
one Of physical rest. Any nation which
failed to observe one day in the week
for rest and spiritual refreshment
would degenerate, he said. Under the
fifth commandment he spoke of obedi-
ence as one of the great needs Of Amer
lean life. The autoist sped his machine
regardless of law; the young man ex-
amined the football rules in order to
find how he could get around them; the
lawyer took advantage of every possi-
BILE exception to evade the law
In St. Stephens Church DR.. Stew
art preached on the holy eucharist. He
spoke of 1t as sacrifice that should
be made with some special end In view.
It should be made the occasion of in
tercessory prayer. He reminded his
hearers of the words In the liturgy ex-
pressing the offering up of the par
taker of the holy communion body and
soul to God. and dwelt on the solem-
nifty of the words. The world. he
said, offered chalice full OF wine, but
1t was wine that would make the par
taker q beast. In the holy sacrament
was the cup of true joy.
The final rally of the mission will be
held in Trinity Church on Monday aft
ernoon. when both congregations will
join in the services.

WANTS MONEY FOR
NIGHT SCHOOLS

City superintendent of Schools Ron
covieri has forwarded to State Senator
Keane at Sacramento draft of pro-
posed bill providing that the night
schools of this city shall receive the
same financial treatment at the hands
of the State as the day schools. There
are $500 pupils attending the night
schools in this city and all Of the ex-
pense Of educating these pupils is
borne by the municipality. Superin-
tendent Roncovieri is convinced that
the State should contribute toward the
education of the pupil that studies by
lamplight as we'll as the student who
studies by daylight City Attorney
Burke has forwarded to Superintendent
Roncovieri an opinion that at the pres
ent time the City and County of San
Francisco can collect money for the
night schools, but SO that there shall
be no question concerning the legality
of the mater Roncovieri will ask the
State Legislature to pass an act to that
effect.
