SAN FRANCISCO, June "a - The
Angels took their second game of the
series from the Seals today, 8 to 2. A
little better fielding would have meant
another victory for the Seals. They
outhit their opponents two to one, but
punched their errors with two scratch
hits by the Angels and the trick was
turned Even with the score against
them the leaders fought hard, and in
the last of the ninth came through with
an additional tally, but could not quite
connect for enough to tie up the game.
Tenants home run started the affair,
and that should have been sufficient to
win. Corbett had far better control
than Tozer. The sixth was his undo
ing, however, for two runs came across
the plate which, added TO Daley's tally
in the eighth gave the Angels the
game. Tozer was better as the contest
progressed, but the ninth inning rally
came close to putting 1t on for extra IN
nings.
With two out in the first inning
Tommy Tennant put the ball over the
right field fence for a homer. Bodie
singled through second, but was thrown
out trying to reach second.
Real trouble came in the sixth. Tozer
hit grounder to McArdle that took a
difficult bound and was hard to handle.
Daley put Texas Lacquer over short,
and when Ross hit grounder to Ten
nant that was booted the first run was
scored. Dillon walked, and when a
double steel was started Daley was
across the plate before Dillon was re-
tired. The eighth was also an Angel
inning. With two gone, Daley was
walked and stole second. Ross singled
past third. and when Bodie let the ball
get away from him Daley scored.
San Francisco made a last effort in
the ninth. Bodie hit for two bases, but
Melchoir popped to Dillon and Nick
Williams to the catcher Berrys two
Dagger scored Lewis. who was running

ATHLETICS

4 D WOLGAST, Milwaukee feather
n weight, who is down for the meet
ing with Nelson on July 13, is ex-
pected to arrive in this city today,
provided he is on time in his announced
schedule of arrivals and departures.
Wolgast is accompanied by his man
ager, Tom Jones, and as soon as the
pair arrive and the particulars of the
coming battle for the worlds light
weight championship are settled and
Ads signature is blotted on the parch-
ment the two will go to Venice, where
Ad will train for the battle.
Wolgast returns to Los Angeles with
three victories behind him. One, the
last bout with Tommy O'Toole, was
an exceedingly close affair and Ads
stock was greatly boosted when he gave
the rough Philadelphian so hard an
argument. This is the man 1T will be
remembered, who bothered Abe Attell
considerably. Ad sends word that he
has kept up light training and is al
ready in good condition. The work In
the salt breezes of the seaside will de-
velop his wind and both Wolgast and
his manager asserts that it will be a
different man who faces Nelson than
the sick lad who lost to Memsic. At his
best Ad is a dangerous customer for
any lightweight in the world. He has
wicked left and a puzzling defense.
He Is clever and game and fast, three
mighty important attributes Of a
fighter. Therefore the argument with
Nelson should prove Of all-absorbing
interest.
If possible to arrange his Orpheum
act accordingly, Mike Donlin will ac-
cept the invitation to act as umpire in
the coming Vernon-Los Angeles series
OF games here next week. Mike appears
with Mable Hite, his wife, in a skit.
and is the headliner of the bill. but ii
is possible that the program may be
SO arranged that he can get away to
attend the games. Miss Hite is equally
anxious to attend, as she has developed
into fan of the first order. Mike was
captain of the New York Giants last
season.
From Pittsburg comes a description
OF the three-round appearance of Jim
Jeffries-a tale which is of timely in
terest in view of the announcement
the big fellow made two months ago.
The eastern critics without doubt see
different Jeffries from the man who
fought those Coney Island struggles.

Stovall made up for past errors in

gathered in a difficult short fly.
Kitty Brashear had one put over on
him for a bit of soldering in the
fourth. He received a liner from w.
Hogan in plenty of time to touch the
first base bag, but thought the out was
so easy that he failed to station him

A QUESTION OF COLOR
Unique and Pitiful Case on Record
of Virginia Courts.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 23.-Proba-
bly, the most unique and pitiful case
in the history of Virginia has devel-
oped in Farville, where Marius Lind
say and his wife, both believing
themselves to be negroes, have been
sentenced to eight years each In the
penitentiary, the court having ad-
Judged the man to have enough
white blood in his veins to be legally
white.
Marius Lindsay is the son of a
white woman. He always accepted
story, however, that he had colored
blood in his veins. Believing this he
had associated with negroes from his
infancy, lived with them and attend
cd their churches and schools. Some
few months ago Marius was married
to Sophy Jones, a negress, and the
widow Of q negro. and since lived
with her.
Indictments were brought against
Lindsay on the ground that he is a
white man, who had married a ne
gro woman, and against his wife,
Sophy, for having married a white
man, being herself a negress, the
laws Of Virginia prohibiting such in
termarriage. The court, while dwell
ing at length upon the tragedy that
has made this man and woman GRIM
inals, without any intention on their
part of committing a criminal act, de-
| clared the marriage null and void,
an sentenced the prisoners to the
penitentiary for having contracted an
inter-racial marriage.
The court added, however, that
| while under the law he was forced
to pronounce sentence, he would
probably petition the Governor to
pardon the prisoners without allow
Ing them to De taken to the peniten-
tiary. but upon condition that all
marital relations between them
| should cease.
