Baseball Notes

Battling Nelson and Jimmy Britt were
both at the game. Jimmy sat up In the
grand stand and rooted for the Seals
The Battler occupied the seat of honor
on the White Sox bench and all his
hollering was for the Chicago boys.

sore young man when the game ended
He expected to see a repetition Of the

stand why the cut had been switched
so quickly and so cleverly.
Texas Sutor looks like all the cake.
He is a big. strapping south winger,
with plenty of speed and curves that
twist around the batsmen's necks- Yes
terday was the first time out for him.
and the fans liked his style the minute
they cast their eyes on him. Sutor
came pretty near being passed up by
Long at the last minute. and when he
blew in the other day the local manager
was one of the most surprised men in
the city.
The Seals will line up against the
St. Mary's college nine tomorrow after
noon in the last game to be played be-
fore they leave for the training
grounds at Bakersfield. The collegians
have a strong team and will line up as
follows: Krause, pitcher; Burns. catch

morning Long will lead his squad to
the ferry, where they will board the
south bound train for Bakersfield,
working out at the training quarters
for two weeks. The team is in good
shape right now. and promises to be
right on edge and fit to start after the
pennant when the bell sounds the open
ing of the season on April 4.

Southern Motorists
Want the Racers
They Offer inducements TO Have
Cars Pass Through Los

By r. r. YrIornrnedieu

The Los Angeles motorists are max
ing a great play to induce the auto
mobilists who are racing across the
continent in the New York-Paris race
to visit their city. The regular route
comes as far south as Mohave and
then turns north toward Los Angeles.
The southerners want the cars to make
loop and come through the San

not received any encouragement. The

racers a reception that has not been

EASY FOR THE SOx
The morning game was very soft for
the Sox. San Francisco pitchers, Elf
mann, Hoag and Whitridge, all seemed
to get in bad at the outset and this
in measure discouraged the other
members of the team. The Sox practi-
cally broke up the game in the fourth
round when they sneaked five runs
across. They polished off the mornings
work by getting three in the ninth.
Young Skaggs. the Oakland high
school boy, pitched three innings for
Chicago and made good all the time.
Pat Dougherty also unwound his old
southern wing for three spasms and
White filled in the balance of the time.
1t was nice and easy for the big
leaguers after the third inning, the
Seals never again breaking in with a
run.
The grounds were packed to the
limit by Oakland and San Francisco
rooters. AS usual, the Chicago contin-
gent. led by Joe Farrell and Bob Can't
well. were there with plenty of noise.

Meelick, for which Hildreth paid

decided between now and the end of
the season. He was not transferred to
Dr. Rowell's charge until after Satur-
days race. Had it been necessary he
probably could have clipped more off
the record than he did, as he was a
comparatively fresh horse at the finish.
Big Bow is perfectly sound horse, and
il is likely that he will win himself ont
in purses before his racing days are
over. 1t is among the possibilities that
he will be able to win the Thornton in
some future year. Livius, which made
a game bid for the race, pulled UP

ably will be shipped back to Arcadia.

Robert Bridges had been asked to

pertaining to the publication of the
stories the president intends to write
on his experiences in Africa when he
goes there to hunt big game next year.
Mr.. Bridges visit revived the story
that the president had been offered
lover 81 per word" Inquiries at the
executive offices brought forth an
emphatic denial of the report. 1t was
also stated that the president had as
yet made no contract for the rights to
publish his stories
Commander and Mrs. Peary were met
at the station by a government auto
mobile and taken to Sycamore Hill,
where President Roosevelt greeted
them cordially. They sat on the YER

certain that he would plant the Stars

he said he would at least carry the
flag nearer to it than any other emblem
has been carried.
The president expressed his hope Tor
the success of Commander Peary's trip.
The president later went aboard the
steamer Roosevelt, where Mr.. Peary
introduced him to the members of the

Bryan, and that the Mormons could
not live in Idaho and defy the laws or

1.-THE Mormons are disfranchisiRg
themselves. 1t is the criminal fearing

and therefore they would not sit in
