CRACK MINES PLAY
TWENTY-INNING GAME
West Jefferson Merchants Defeat Nine
from Golden State Wine Com
pany in Hard Fought
Contest

Before a large attendance at the
new polo grounds, Thirty-sixth. street
and Western avenue. West Jefferson
Merchants baseball nine defeated the
Golden State Wine company's team
after twenty long, grueling innings OF
closely-contested play by a score Of
80. The game was a pitchers battle
throughout, O'Neil for the winners and
Acuna for the losers twirling nice ball
and holding out in great form. The
pitching of O'Neil was little short of
phenomenal the lad striking out TWEEN
ty-three men and allowing but two
walks. Although the Merchants made
six errors to the Wine company's one,
they far outclassed them on the stick
work, getting twenty single base hits
from Acuna This was perhaps the
most remarkable feature of an all
around remarkable game, as notwith-
standing the fact that the winning nine
made twenty hits to the losers six,
they nosed them out by but one tally
The Merchants first run was scored in
the fourth inning on a single by Flor
entine A stolen base and a single by
Watson brought home Florentine, and
with two men on bases Smith lined out
another, bringing in Watson. From
this inning until the last of the game
not another run was made by the Mer-
chants, although about fifteen men got
as far around the course as first base
Several grandstand catches were
made by Hubert Smith and Kalt for
the winners and by Kanrich and
Twombley for the losers F1orentine
featured with the stick, getting three
singles and a tWo-bagger out of eight
trips to the plate. Although the keen
est rivalry prevailed, no i'll feeling was
manifested during the game, several
close decisions on the part of Umpire
Johnson being accepted without muir

SHAFER'S ATTEMPT Fooled
BY HEN NEAR SANTA ANA
Motorcyclist Is Not Discouraged and
Will Make Second Attempt to
Lower Derkum's Record

J. H. Shafer, who left the Herald Of
flee at a. m. yesterday morning in
an attempt to lower Derkum's motor
cycle run Of 10 hour and SO minutes
from Los Angeles to San Diego and
return, was obliged to return to Los
Angeles at 1920 p. m. and report fail
ure. Shafer, who went as far on his
Thor machine as Santa Ana, was met
by a large brown hen at that city and
in the miXup which followed, Shafer,
the hen and the motorcycle were pre-
cipitated into a nearby ditch with the
result that Derkum's record is still I'M
sullied and that Shafer returned with
q badly battered up machine and a
whole handful Of chicken feathers as
the result of his effort There is also
as a gentle reminder Of the episode a
sign at the headquarters Of the Indian
machine which reads: "Why did the
chicken cross the road" and in this in
stance it appears not to have been from
reasons as of yore.
Shafer, however, is not in the least
disheartened by his failure and will
make another attempt in the near fu-
