biggest thing in life for man, and
Andy had every license to beam his
happiness as he walked toward the
players bench at the end of the game.
An announcement of an engagement
between Andrew Briswalter and Miss
Leila Bruin, a sparkler for dainty
finger and the congratulations of COM
rades. Well done, Andy!
1.-THE Prize Fighters Dream" or
1.-THE Battle Which Didn't Come Off,
This should be the title of the romance
which the tousled- headed Dane of Col
ma memory is endeaVoring to weave
for the benefit of the dear public and
incidentally his own pocketbook.
An eastern sporting writer aptly
paints the situation as follows:
Battling Nelson and Harry Gilmore,
jr., should go into vaudeville. AS the
original low comedy team they would
be a howl. Here are a few lines from
real life: Gilmore wonders why Nelson
hasn't posted his $4,000 forfeit for his
match with Mcfarland on July 8. Il
don't believe the scab has got $4,000, y
opines Gilmore. Nelson goes into a
rage. "Unless Mr.. Gilmore retracts
certain statements he has said relative
to my financial standing I will refuse
to fight him. asserts Nelson to the
about changing the date and demand
ing a $4,000 side bet. Matters begin to
look dark, when astute Jimmy Coff-
roth comes to the front with the diplo-
macy. Nelson and Mcfarland will
fight at my club on July 5, as an
nounced," he says. Nelson has not
posted his forfeit, but he has given me
his word. and I would stake my life on
the Battler's word.'
The news from the north that Van
Haltren has been displaced as leader
of the Oakland team brings with it a
message that will prove good news for
Los Angeles fans. George Wheeler will
still be zone of u.s." Although Presi-
dent Wolters of the Oakland club has
been after Wheeler for several weeks
and Berry had about reached the frame
of mind in which he would permit
Wheeler to go north to look after the
Commuters, Capt. Dillon, the team,
Hen Berry and the fans will all be glad
to hear that George will stay. Bill
Reidy has accepted the position from
which Van Haltren has been ousted,
and thus George Wheeler will continue
to wear an Angel uniform. Had
Wheeler been easily satisfied he might
have had the place, but he held out for
his own price, and from the result this
must have been too steep for Wolters.
The fans will heave few signs over the
passing of Van Haltren. His surliness
on his team and his lack Of youthful
vim and dash had their effect on the
players under him. Oakland should
take a new lease on life under its latest
leader.

THROOP ATHLETES
ARE AFTER SCALPS
Pasadena Institute Desires Track Con-
tests with Victors, Provided
Athletes Are Given More
Freedom

Members of Throop college track
team arc so confident of their ability
to defeat the two leaders in the recent
grammar school and Y. M. C. A. Anti
Cigarette track and field meet that
they have prevailed upon their ath-
letic instructor, Harold A. Ryerson, to
consent to another trial, provided that
Wilson and Lincoln schools can be in
duced to accept a challenge.
There is a possibility that the chal-
lenge might result in a four cornered
track meet, as the Throop college team
is anxious to meet the team from Har-
ward military academy. A former
challenge to this school was not ac-
cepted, but there are hopes another one
would be.
Although the Lincoln school athletes
made fifty-six points in the recent
meet, the Wilson school made forty
six and Throop thirty-four, Coach
Ryerson is confident that his proteges
would win in a meet permitting the
athletes to compete in more than two
field events.
He would expect to use Horrell in
several track events, with assurances
that he would take a number of first
places. He states that Throop boys
would willingly engage in dual con-
tests if desired.

SEALS LEAD LEAGUE BY
WINNING FROM PORTLAND
tory by OutpIaying Beavers in
Last Game of Series

PORTLAND, May 9.-San Francisco
displaced Portland for the league lead
ership today. The score was 6 to 4, and
it was a clean-cut victory, the Seals
outbatting and outfelding the Beavers
as we'll as putting up a better eXhi-
bition of base running. The game was
played on a sloppy field and amid in
termittent showers.
The visitors won the contest in the
first inning by piling up five runs on
Hardness. Zieder poked out one that
bounded off Hardness shin. Mohler
sacrificed. Tenant singled to left,
sending Zeider home, and Bodie put a
three-sacker over Ryan, bringing in
Tenant. Melchoir drew a pass, and
when Jimmy Williams clouted Bodie
registered and Melchoir brought up
safely at third. Carson went on the
mound, but it made little difference.
for Nick Williams drew a double and
two runners scored. The detailed re-

there will be no game on a south

which will meet Vernon in the south
this week, will arrive from their home
precincts Wednesday forenoon in time
to don suits and timber up for the

of the Vernon club is authority for
this statement.
After several weeks of efficient ser
vice in the south, Umpire McGreeVy left
last night for Sacramento, where he
will officiate in the Angel Senators
popular with the players as some of
the more easy going indicator men, but
he is respected for his firmness and has
made a hit with the public by the man

diamond and its occupants through

Finishing their game with more than
the usual speed, the Los Angeles ana
Sacramento teams caught the Owl
last night for the all-night jaunt to
the home town of Grahams band.
Sacramento will see some high class
ball this week, for both teams are
rounding into their best playing form,
and there will be all kinds of field
ing and batting sensations sprung.
Probably few ball teams are as con-
genial as are the members of the rival
organizations that are on their way
northward together. Graham has a
splendid bunch of fellows with him,
and the same can be said for Frank
Dillon. Though they play with all the
earnestness of aspirants for a coveted
honor, yet when the game is over they
fraternize like the best of friends they
are.
Little Andy Briswalter put one over
on his teammates yesterday, when he
slyly announced to certain of his
friends that by winning his game in the
afternoon against the Senators he had
won his bride. Andy was pitching in
fine style yesterday, and some of those
who knew not why they wondered were
surprised into the expression that the
boy was twirling one of the best games
Of his short professional existence. No
wonder he threw his very life into his

NOTES oE THE GAME

the fastest this season, being played in
an hour and fifteen minutes. In fact,
the official scorer is authority for the
statement that it established a record
for the Chutes park grounds.
Between five and six thousand people
thronged the grand stand and bleach
ers yesterday at Chutes. Away out
on the extreme south bleachers, which
are built for the holiday crowds the
jam was terrific, and in the sea of faces
hardly vacant seat was visible. Need
less to say, the smile that couldn't be
scrubbed off adorned the face of the
Man with the Weaselskin Hat.
By the way, Hen Berry's famous
weaselsl5in was to have appeared yes
terday, as he had promised to wear 1t,
but Mrs. Hen informed him before
breakfast that 1t had been loaned for
masquerade the night before, and so
Hen had to descend from the clouds
and wear his much desplsed ordinary
headgear.
One of the best fielding games of the
year was seen yesterday. Both teams
had plenty of ginger, and only one little
slip occurred.
Sturdy little Andy Briswalter short
in stature but long on speed and
curves, held the formidable northern
ers under control at every stage This
boy has had only a few weeks in fast
company, but his work in the box
should be watched, for he possesses
real ability.
Bert Delmas made a beautiful play
in the sixth. grabbing a hot liner of
Flanagan's to short and throwing
Doyle out at first with a nice heave
to Dillon.

WILL GIVE STREET PARADE

Barnum and Bailey Greatest Show
on Earth Revives Old Feature.
When the Barnum and Bailey
Greatest Show on Earth visits
Durham on Saturday, October
23d, it will be with the street
parade re-established after four
years omission. 1t will be a
parade vastly superior to any
ever given in America, being en-
tirely the origination and execu-
ton of European artists, design
ers and property builders.
1t is the policy of the manage
ment never to repeat itself, and
some seasons ago, when it seem
ed it had exhibited everything
new under the sun, the parade
was dropped until such a time a.
more original ideas might be
created and new wonders sought
out from remote lands. For two
years daily and night artists,
artisans. designers and property
builders have been tolling at the
foreign work shops of the circus.
Stock on Trent, England, build
ing the parade which this season
is delighting the public.
Not in its slightest detail does
this parade resemble anythln.
ever seen on the streets before.
1t fairly glistens with newness.
and the million dollars invested
in it shows itself in gorgeous
floats OF FURNISHED gold made b.
Oriental workmen, tapestry anC
throne rugs from Persia anC
turkey costumes made in France,
lace, scarfs, flags and banners
from Chinese looms, mythology
cal statuary from Italian studios.
band and orchestra wagons oil
bronze and animal dens built In
Germany. War engines of saw
age lands and wealthy nations,
the craven images and idols OF
heather tribes, the crude veh..
Giles Of barbarian chieftains and
the carriages OF state of poten.
tates are displayed.
Every type of man is seen il
his native dress and a great me-
nagerie of recently found ami.
mails is shown in open cages.
The parade Is three times the
length of former street display:
. and represents ten times the out
lay in money.
The performance. as well, ha:
undergone its changes, having
been bettered by the addition Of
recent new acts which have ap
peared in Europe and Asia. The
long bill begins with spectacle
more ornate and interestir & thar
those Of the past and employs ;
cast of more than 1000 persons
As a climax to this wonderful
show there is Jupiter, the balloon
horse, and Desperate, who leap
from the dome of the tent anC
, land on his chest. These tw,
. thrilIers are absolutely differen
{ from the sensational acts Of tn
} past and in point Of daring an,
utter recklessness the leap o
Desperate stands alone.
