The defeat Of Alameda last Sunday
by the Pacific team has put quite a
different aspect on the cricket com
petition. The Alameda team is still in
the lead by three points, but the in

VIII result The three Oldest teams In
the California cricket association now
lead in the race and the three new
teams are close up.
The Pacifics' win was the closest
and most exciting yet recorded this
season, and the whole credit was en-
tirely due TO Langdale and Jameson.
Both men played splendid cricket. Their
scoring was slow at times, but they
took no radical chances and brought
the score from Z wickets for So runs
up to 80, level with the Alameda's score,
before they were separated.
The bowling of Wilkes was another
feature of the game. He was simply
unplayable and took 8 wickets for s
runs and bowled maidens out Of u
overs.
The Golden Gates fell easy victims
TO the country team by wickets.
Raymond. a Queensland cricketer,
made his entry into local cricket with
a useful score of 19. He played a
good game. and he is a man that can
generally be relied upon for runs at
al times.
Both games scheduled for today
ought to show good cricket The Bar
barians are putting their best team in
the field against the Alameda team and
& battle royal is expected. Since its
defeat last week the Alameda team in

CHAPTER xvi.
Alonq the Cyclanen Path.

Both young men are riding light;
Barnes for this speedy dash has left
his rife and his field glasses behind
him, and they gallop up the pass of
the Force But the ascent is so steep
they are soon compelled to walk their
horses. A precipice is on one side of
them and the great tanks of Del Orc
are on the other. Both Edwin and
Burton have been silent, thinking of
their wives. The latter now remarks,
pointing to a deep gorge running up
the mountain side: THAT, l believe,
leads to La Pintica, the home of the
Bellacoscia, which the gendarmes
never dare to visit
But they having reached the summit
of the Col, now speed their horses
sharply down the decliyities into the
great forest of ViZzavona, the road
leading them through pines, beeches
and the inevitable chestnut trees.
They have passed no one in the
darkness. In fact, they have not yet
gone far enough to have any hope of
overtaking Marina unless accident has

horses were fresh theirs, according
to the hostler, had been ridden during
the preceding day.
Soon after, they dash through the
village of Vivaro, announced by the
barking of some ours and the granting
of some pigs. Every house in the vii
lage is closed and no one would open
for us in the dead of night in this land
of the vendetta" remarks Barnes.
They go to climbing again, and soon
after descend through the gorge of the
rapid Vecchio, the river foaming far
beneath the road, while rocky hills
and sharp mountains rise on either
side.

Yes. if Cipriano Danella has her
He apparently wants chance at my

place, so that striving to find her

SO he and Edwin walk their horses
up to the junction of the Morosaglia
road.
Did you find that flower here?" he
asks Edwin.
Yes, pretty we'll toward the middle
of the path"
Though the moon has just risen they
can find no more cyclamen blossoms
and here a sudden complication con-
fronts them. Another road leading to-
ward the northwest and running to
Novella, Belgodere and the lie Rouse,
also leaves the Bastia road at the same
point.
1T is just as probable that Marina's
course was directed toward the north
west as toward the east. In fact, it is
toss-up which way your wife went"
remarks Barnes. Now, there is only
one way to settle it, if this cycamen
flower means anything. That is for
you to investigate one road and | the
other"
So it is arranged that Barnes takes
the road toward the lie Rouse, and
Edwin follows the path leading to the
east toward Morosaglia.

The allied interests against the
administration forces in the
south have quit their fight before
the republican committe and laid
down in front of the Taft Jugger
naut. However, they will prob
ably carry the contests before
the republican convention in their
endeavor to down the Lily White
wing of the party in the south,
though the prospects of success
are very slim. The southern
negro will learn some day, and it
now seems not far distant, that
he is not entitled to participate
in the government of this
country on account of the color
of his skin, but only when he
deserves it from the fact that he
is good citizen, with the in
telligence to act without racial
prejudice, and. there are so few
that will ever measure up to the
required standard, that as a race
their days of voting will cease
in a few years. While many
misguided northern peo pl e
through ORANGE desire
them to vote, and others who
know better, but who wish the
burden to remain on the south,
and will continue their efforts to
stir up strife, the better ele-
ment, especially in close states,
where the negro vote is needed,
will realize the danger of truck
ling to ignorance, which is made
impudent as well, by purchasing
votes, and that better element
will give them to understand
their votes are not wanted.
