Large Sum for City Sani-
tatiOn Work

E. H. Hartman has given $4,000
TO the fund for the determination of
rats. 1t is also understood that the
Santa Fe railroad has agreed 70 con-
tribute largely for the improvement of
the sanitary condition of San Fran
cisco. The announcement of the gift
of Hartman came yesterday in a tele-
gram to the executive body of the citi-
zens' health committee
According to the report made yester-
day to Dr. Blue by the physicians and
workers under him last week was
eventful, and much was done by the
health inspectors and physicians. The
physicians are seeing to it that each
district is thoroughly cleaned before

Chicago. as usual. broke the ice in the
second inning. Anderson lined one safe

down with q nice sacrifice and Melchoir
could not make Waters fly stick to his
mitt, so the run came very nice and
soft.
The fifth brought the Sox another.
With one to the bad, Weaver got pass
and Freeman struck out. O'Neill and
Osteen, however, walloped the leather
right on the beak, each cracking pretty
singles into the outfield and chasing
Weaver over the hurdles.
The Seals could not make noise till
their half of the fifth, and then they
went for one. Mohler got the old fatal
base on balls and Curtis unioaded a
neat sacrifice. Berry took one in the
ribs, and with Mohler pulled off pret-
ty double steal This little side play
seemed to put the iinks on Freeman,
for he passed Skillman and gave Hide

received, forcing Mohler over the pan.

Seals ShoWCIass and
Sox Fall Twice
EsoIa and Hddebrand Are the
Heroes of a Sensational
Victory
BY w. j. SIattery

If the White Sox do not show more
speed at home than they did against
the Seals yesterday none of their
friends will talk to them this season.
Twice the Soa had chance to slip
something over on the native brigade,
but the cut was switched on them both
times. In the morning at Oakland
Chicago ran for the end book, TO ).
Before the admiring throng at Recre-
alton park the finish was 3 to ?.
Cheers sounded for many a Seal dur
ing the battle, but the noise OF ap-
plause which went for Baby Esola
won all by itself 1t was the Baby
who tied the score with two down
in the ninth inning. The crowd still
continued to yell, while Oscar Jones
and George Hildebrand were busy
singing the leather. Men threw their
hats away and women wrecked high
grade gloves when Esola tore In with
the tally that beat Chicago.
About 5000 fans lined up TO view
the miXup, which was the prettiest
and snappiest of the series. The
grounds were fairly well dried out and
fast bali was possible. Though errors
were frequent, brilliant fielding and
sharp stickwork discounted the mis-
plays, and the fans were willing TO
treated to the classy stuff.
WILL REMEMBER LAST ROUND
The last round was the one that
counted-the one that Chicago viii re-
member with regret. the one that the
local fans viii talk about for years

but Osteen devoured 1t and the crowd
rooted again.
But their chance was yet to come.
for in the distance they spotted Baby
Esols as he spat upon his mitts and
fondled his favorite club. Esola knew
thar he must deliver, and he accord
ingly swung on a fast one that shot
down the third base line and almost
plowed home and Esola landed at
first ere .. sters could pick up the
sphere.
This satisfied the multitude. but q
roar Of thanksgiving went up as Oscar
Jones ripped bingle through the in
field. though he was not expected to
do anything but strike out. Hide
brand fully realized that the crowd
would put the crusher on him should
he fail down. SO he waded into nice
one. sent it on its way past second
and the game belonged to San Fran
cisco.
The finish was an awful jolt for the
Sox TO put away. They had the game
ali wrapped and ready to be delivered
till the fatal ninth and were apparently
riding easy. They were doing the
best they could to show tie natives
up before the big holiday crowd and

Are Winners.

Governor Haskell Saturday evening
issued proclamations declaring the re-
suits OF the county seat elections in
Wagner and Mcintosh counties, and
proclaiming Wagner and Checotah to
be the winners.
All of the county officials OF Mcln-
tosh county are directed to move their
office with all records a6d papers
from Eufaula to Checotah at once. Eu-
faulas contention was that the totals
OF the poll books should be taken as
the evidence OF the number of votes
cast, instead OF the returns, which
would leave Checotah about thirty
short OF a majority.
The governor took the opposite view
Of the matter but suggested that Il

supreme court.
Before the Checotah delegation could
shout their paean of triumph the Eu-
faula contingent hustled In search Of
Chief Justice Williams of the supreme
court, and secured from him writ OF
temporary Injunction restraining the
removal Of the county offices until
certain alleged differences had been
settled.
The temporary injunction was grant
ed. and the hearing in the case set
for July 10.
