SPECIAL D1spArCH TO THE cALL

SAN JOSE, Oct. 31.-The San Jose
baseball team was blanked this after
noon by the FresnOites, and probably
lost its best chance to win the pen
nant, as there were Ave games left to
play. three with the Raisin Eaters and
two with Sacramento. Pitcher Baum
held the home club down to four hits
each In a different inning His control
was great, and only once or twice was
ne In any danger Harry Wolters'
hitting and the fielding of Reid and
Smith of the local club featured the
contest Wolters singled three times
out of four at bat
Stricklett pitched a fine. game and
with little better work at first base
would have won. It was a hard
fought bitterly contested game from
ehe start and kept large crowd well
interested. The score:

Quail Hunters Secure
Their Full Quota

The sport of quail shooting received
a stimulus last week, as the rain fa-
cilitated hunting with dogs by moisten-
ing the ground. and the cold spell fol-
lowing the precipitation drove the
game from the thick brush on the foot
hills and mountains to the open val
1eys and made hunting comparatively
easy.
Although quail are plentiful in most
of the bay counties, this form of sport
has been a profitable one since the
season opened, as the lack of green

the heavily wooded slopes of the hills.

to dislodge them.
The rain, however. brought about a.
complete change in the situation and

were again in evidence In the valleys.
interest in the sport was revived Last
Friday was an ideal day for quail hunt
ers. as the birds left the uncomfortable
and damp underbrush for the sunny
spots in the valleys and the ground
was just right for dogs to work over.
Many city sportsmen journeyed to
Marin and Sonoma counties, where
there was good shooting, and the re-
suits were, as a rule. highly satfsfac-
tory. limit bags being obtained with

Jem Driscoll May Come
to Pacific Coast
In America for the Purpose of
Fighting Able AffeH and
May Drift This Way

Jem Driscoll, London's latest expor-
tation in the fight line, is a classy boy,
according to what the English sporting
writer's and public have to say of him.
Jem is 27 years old and has been box
ing nine years. During his ring career
Drlscoll has won 81 fights, and has
never been beaten.
The late George Dixon, champion
feather weight of the world in his day.
is the only man who ever got even as
good as a draw with the Welshman.
DriscoI came to America for the
sole purpose of fighting Able Attell,
and as Attell has gone on record as
saying he would meet Driscoll and let
him make a weight at which he would
be strong. a match between the Afneri-
can and Driscoll is inevitable.
Jem is described as very clever
boxer, of good habits, a ripping punch
and a game boy. Driseoll is under the
management of Charlie Harvey and is
in New York, and the chances are that
it will not be very long before Jem
drifts out this way. If Driscoll is as
good as his admirers say he is he
would be a welcome addition to the
local fight colony and a match betwe cen
him and Attell would make an attrac-
tive card.

Los Angeles Takes Possession OF the
1908 Baseball Flag Tonight
By w. j. SIaffery

When this evenings sun sets the sixth annual
season of the Pacific Coast baseball league will
have come to memorable end. and for the fourth
time within as many years the championship pennant
will be turned over to the Los Angeles aggregation
the grandest ball team that the coast has boasted
since the days of the historic Pioneers Haverleys and
Greenhood and Morans, whose feats set the crowds
wild IN the latter seventies and early eighties
To say that the coast league did not keep up
its stride with the big league organizations and JON
in the prosperity procession would be great mistake
Though other industries and amusements suffered
much during the recent financial panic and depression.

Dynamite Bomb Caused Panic.

New York, July IA dynamite
bomb exploding with terrific force In
the stairway of a fashionable apart
ment house in West 140th street,
hurled scores of the occupants from
their beds, shattered many windows
and threw the tenants into q panic,
A huge hole was torn in the cement
flooring where the bomb went OF and
considerable other damage was done
to the building.
There was forty-two families living
in the apartment house, but as tar as
the police could learn none OF them
had received threatening letters. The
reason for the bomb is much OF q
mystery.
The block in which the explosion
occurred is occupied by number OF
high class apartment houses.
Detectives say they have no clue
to the perpetrators and that It 1t
proves to be an attack by members
of the Black Hand it will be the first
kind in New York directed toward
the Weather class Of residents.

beaumont is Wild.

Beaumont, Texas, July 16.-Beau-
mont is wild with excitement, and
the city is filled with hundreds OF
armed men, due to the belief that the
negro who brutally assaulted little
Ada Belle Hopkins is in the hands
of the officers. About six O'Clock last
evening Acting Marshal N. N. Smith
and other officers caught a negro,
said to be named Henry Goldman,
sleeping in a barn or clubhouse OF an
other negro living in the vicinity OF
the power plant. This negro was
given up, it is said, by the negro who
harbored him. There was talk OF
storming the county jail, where a
number of negroes arrested as sus-
poets are confined, but Sheriff Lam
dry solemnly assured leading citizens
that the negro was not in jail. A
crowd of hundreds of men gathered
at the Texas and New Orleans pass
enger depot last night and held up
passenger train No. 8, West bound,
for about fifteen minutes, while a
thorough but unavailing search for
the negro was made. Passenger train
No. 8, East bound was also stopped
this side of the Neches river and
searched for the negro. Sheriff Ian
dy was joined here by Rangers
Wright and Hamar.
Negroes are keeping close, and re-
sorts in the north end are closed
tight.

DIR. Brown Not Man Wanted.

Orangeburg, July 15.-Dr. W. n.
Brown, veterinary surgeon OF this
city, who was arrested here last We'd
nesday on a warrant from Dayton,
Tennessee, charging him with horse
stealing, turns out not to be the man
wanted. The description sent here
by the sheriff of Dayton tailed IN
every way with DR.. Browns appear
ance except as to age. Chief of Po-
lice Fisher, who arrested Brown, had
the accused man photographed and
his picture was mailed to the author
tiles at Dayton, Tenn. Chief Fischer
received a telegram from the Dayton
sheriff saying that the photograph
showed DR.. Brown not to be the man,
and of course, he was promptly re-
leased from the bond which he had
given without any trouble on the day
of his arrest. Dr. Browns friends
in Orangeburg are delighted to know
that it was case OF mistaken identl-
ty, and regret the notoriety given to
DR.. Brown.

Sheath Gown Causes Sensation.

Atlantic City, N. j., July 17.-Mrs.
James P. Munyon, the three-months
bride of the millionaire patent medi-
cine man, appeared on the board
walk in a sheath gown last night and
created a sensation. Before she had
been on the walk five minutes the
promenaders clustered so thlckly
about her that the walk was block
ed. Professor Munyon, who was with
his bride, urged her to walk faster,
in the hope Of outdistancing the Gu
rious throng. The crowd followed,
continually increasing. The young
woman was very much embarrassed
and blushed deeply at the comments
of the closest onlookers.
After walking several blocks with
the throng following Prof. Munyon
led his bride into a confectionery
store, which was Immediately besieg-
ed. The Munyon's waited patiently
for the crowd to disperse, and the
crowd waited just as patiently out
side for Mrs. Munyon to appear. FL
nally the pair slipped out a side door
to a carriage that had been called
and were driven back to the hotel,
where Mrs. Munyon changed her
gown for one more old-fashioned.

CLOSE ELECTION AT FAIRFAX.
Mr.. j. j. Harter Chosen Intendant by
Just One Vote.

Fairfax, July 1.-THE election
held here yesterday for intendant
and wardens of Fairfax for one year
resulted as follows: Intendant, j. J.
Harter; wardens, B. H. Buckner, w.
E. Harter, o. j. Youmans, and H.
Harvely.
The election was the most hotly
contested ever held in this town. The
successful candidate for intendant
defeated Mr.. J. F. Lightsey, the in
cumbent, by only one vote. Mr..
Lightsey is very popular and deserv-
edly so. He has held the Office of in
tendant here consecutively since 1901
and the opposition to him was not
personal, but on account of a differ
ence of opinion as to the administra-
ton of the towns affairs.
His successor is also young, pro-
gressive man and will no doubt make
a good record as intendant of this
live little town.
Messrs. Buckner and w. E. Harter
were reelected and Mr.. Youmans
has served as warden before, but Mr..
Harvely has not before been connect
ed with the town council here.
The corn crops in this section are
good and cotton is improving rapidly.
