Millers Take Both Al
San Jose
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

SAN JOSE. April 17-San Jose failed
to take the series from the stockton
Millers, but two of the biggest Sunday
crowds the city has turned out in years
were present today to see the Prune
Pickers knock out two gallant victories.
each of which was we'll earned. In
the morning the score was TO 1, and
in the afternoon the locals put over
four tallies against three for their op-
ponents.
The best feature of the two contests
was the making good with the home
fans of Yates and Allegaert. The
former pitched the morning game, and
the latter was on the hill for three
frames in the matinee after it became
apparent that Baldwin was weakening.
Miller and his colleagues in the
Stockton outfeld were working so well
that they could not land them safe
for some time After the. seventh in
ming the Stockton mana cement ditched
Morton so that Hallinan could be used
to start the hitting in the eighth His
place was taken by Kratzburg, who
won early in the week. The locals
took kindly to the new finger, and in
their last chance scored two tallies to
make the measure good. In the after
noon game a succession OF boots by
Stockton, bad bounces and a couple of
clean bingles gave the Prune Pickers
a start of three runs, and they were
never headed.

BEN LOMOND, April 1S.-Billy Papke

and share the latter's quarters while

ably will be with Frank Klaus of Pitts
burg. Sam Berger, Jeffries' manager,
received telegram from Papke today

commodations with Jeffries, and Berger
after consulting Jeffries wired a favor
able reply.
Jeffries put in a strenuous Sunday.
large crowd of visitors came to the
camp and promptly at noon Jeffries
appeared in the gymnasium and began
an endurance exhibition with the pulley
weights. There was nothing spectacu-
lar in the work and it did not have as
much interest for the visitors as box
ing, but it gave them an excellent OPP
portunHy of seeing what condition JEFF
fries is in now. For half an hour
Jeffries hauled away at the weighted
ropes and then followed shadow box
ing, rope skipping and bag punching
for an hour and half.
Jeffries explained his prolonged ses-
sion with the chestweights was for the
purpose of limbering up his neck and
shoulder muscles with view of avoid
ing any future attack of the cramr
which suddenly stopped him last Fri
day in the middle of a boxing bout
with Bob Armstrong. Jeffries has done
no boxing since that time and his mas

Exciting Race in the
Catholic League

The week has been full of surprises
in the baseball series of the Catholic
Schools athletic league. On the Oak
land side, the class A games have
come to an end, and the St. AnthOnys
school players occupy the head of the
percentage column. On this side of the
bay the clever little Josephites have
the result that the Tenth street boys
are not so sure of winning the pen
nant as they were a week ago.
Three teams are now in a race for
first honors on this side of the bay:
St Ignatius' grammar, St Ioseph's
and St James. The last named easily
won the San Francisco championship
last year. and later defeated the st.
Anthony's players from East Oakland
who were the leaders in the Alameda
county branch.
The Ignatia were not in the league
last year, but they have been making
up for their tardiness by fine show
ing in every branch of league athletics
during the last few months. They did
some good work in the indoor meet
held last autumn. and in the recent st.
Marys college indoor games annexed
the relay cup in their division.
AS for the ST. Joseph's players, they
have lost none of their enthusiasm
Possibly their most dangerous foes
are the Jacobians. who certainly piled
up the runs on the Tenth street ag-
gregation in last weeks game.
The Antonines had an easy time of
it in winning the class A championship
Of the Alameda county branch of the
league. Their only competitors were
the West Oaklanders from st. Joseph's
institute, who seem to be notably shy
in baseball material this year.
Events have been equally interesting
in the class B or midget division of the
league. The little fellows have been
putting up quality of baseball which
all things considered. is relatively bet
ter than that displayed by the heavier
teams.
The annual outdoor track meet of
the league will be held in the stadium
of st. Mary's college Saturday. May T.
On that occasion the schools on both
sides of the bay will take part, and
indications are that the affair will be
even more successful than the initial
outdoor meet held last year.
Several of the league schools have
already begun to get their track
squads in shape. Among the earliest
to don running suits are the boys of
ST. Elizabeths school, Fruitvale; ST
Joseph's academy, Berkeley, and ST.
Brigid's school. San Francisco.

HIPPOPOTAMUS STRAYS
INTO THE WRONG SHOW
Circus Finds Unexpected Addi-
ton to Menagerie

blood sweating behemoth, for
which half dozen animal men from
Chicago have been searching for four
days, was found in the circus mena-
gerie at Madison Square garden. He
belonged in Chicago and as yet no one
wise enough to tell how he got to Madi-
son avenue and Twenty-sixth street has
been found, says the New York World.
behemoth is hippopotamus, and as
a hippo weighs from two to three tons
il would be natural to suppose that
losing one on Broadway would be about
as hard as losing the measles in a
minute.
After a truck hauled by six horses
drew up and 20 men moved in an
enormous wooden box the night watch
man allowed the parcel to be lowered
to the basement. The box was pried
open and disclosed a gigantic hippo,
pea eyed, hang jawed, bow legged and
with a skin like pavement. Later John
Patterson, the head animalman, arrived,
and upon being told of the addition to
his collection, set about finding how
and why it had got there. No hippo had
been ordered by Barnum & Bailey.
While they were wondering, the Chi
cago men arrived. A hippo had been
ordered from Nairebi for the Ringing
Brothers circus in Chicago and by some
error got to the Barnum & Bailey
outfit.

RADIUM DISCOVERED
IN HOT SPRINGS, ARK.
Wonderful Mineral Responsible
for Healing Effects

That the famous waters OF Hot
Springs, Ark. are radioactive has
now been established beyond all doubt,
and that it is because of this radio
activity that they possess their won
derful curative properties most well in
formed persons no longer question.
This is what the United States govern
ment says about these waters in its
Official report:
The waters of the springs on the
Hot Springs, Ark, reservation are a!l
radio active to a marked degree. says
the New York Tribune. This radio ac-
tivity of the waters is due TO a dis
solved radium emanation "a gas). and
not to the presence of salts of radium
or other radioactive solids. The meth
cd of examination was to separate the
gases and emanations from the water
by boiling it in specially prepared APP
paratus, after which the emanatiOns
were measured by the electroscope. The
results were very satisfactory. as they
showed a marked degree OF radiO-ac-
tivity in the measurements.
1t is known that these hot waters
lose their radio-activity. and, therefore.
their value, when they are allowed to
stand. The scientists who have made
the Investigations agreed that in all
probability there was a bed of radium
at a great depth in the earth beneath
the springs which communicated its
wonderful properties to the waters

FISH FOUND FAIR
BY FAVORED few
Damp Weather Puts Damper on
Sport, but Some Good
Catches Are Made
BY FRANK o'DoNNELL

The wet weather put a damper on
trout fishing at nearby resorts last
Sunday and also dampened the spirits
sportsmen who were determined 10 get
out and fish while the season was
young. Despite the inclement weather
many good catches Of steelhead were
made, and artificial flies proved effect
i've lures in places where the best work
was done previously with spoon and
bait.
All of the smaller coast streams were
visited a week ago yesterday, the Paper
Mill creek finding the most favor be-
in the way of piscatorial inducements
in the wa yof piscatorial prizes. About
40 of the Paper Mill devotees braved
the elements and hshed in the open
near Point Reyes station, where the
best results were obtained. Nearly all
of the 40 had we'll filed baskets after
fishing for half a day. and limit strings
were accounted for by Charles F,
Breidenstein, "Cottager" Christ and
several others. There were over 100
pleasure seekers whipping the stream
up around TocoIoma. but the trout were
not rising to flies or striking at spoons
in that vicinity.
Mud creek was hshed with fair to
good results by Bill street, Howard
Vernon. Emil Acceret. Frank Marcus.
Pete Howard, Jim Maynard and Doc
Wilson. The weather interfered with
fishermen on Salmon creek near Bo-
dega.
Quite a number Of striped bass and
steelhead were taken from Austin pool
near Duncan Mills during the week
The San GregOrio and Pescadero Ia
goons in San Mateo county were found
good for steelhead dividends by sew
eral parties of fly fishermen.
The growing popularity of the trout
waters in this region has been noticed
by the officials of the Ocean Shore rail-
road. vino have installed a new service
between the city and Arleta. the first
station beyond Halfmoon Bay, for the
benefit of the fishermen.
Good catches are being made on the

VERNON CRUSHED
in BOTH GAMES
Villagers Present Seals With
Run After Run Through
BOnehead Boobies
Especial Dispdtch 10 The CGll]

LOS ANGELES, April 17.-San Fran
cisco won a double header today from
Vernon, in both of which games the
unusually large number of errors
formed a feature. A total of 23 errors
was made on both sides during the two
games, San Francisco piling up an
even dozen to IL for Vernon.
In the morning game the Seals made
seven misplays against three for Ver-
non. In the afternoon game Vernon
made eight errors and the Seals made
five
The afternoon game was about the
worst exhibition of baseball that ever
has been played by league teams in
the south. Schaefer and Henley were
the opposing twirlers, and the Vernon
mound artist could not have won had
he been as good as Cy Young in his
best form.
The Villagers neither could hit nor
field and the way they threw the ball
over each others heads and presented
the Seals with runs disgusted the big
gest crowd of fans that has attended
| Coast league game here this season.
San Francisco started the scoring in
the fourth, getting two runs after two
hands were down. Tenant singled to
! infield and was caught on q steal. Witt
and Williams hit to right, Coy muf-
ing the ball, Bodie scoring and Will
liams going to third. Griffin raised one
to right and Coy let ii roll to the fence
and Williams scored. Two more We're
scored by the Seals in the fifth on err
rors. Henley hit infield and Fisher
dropped the assist. Shaw bunted to
Schaefer, who threw over first and
Shaw went TO second. Mundorff popped
to short and Hogan threw the ball to
left field trying to catch Henley, who
scored Melchior popped to Kitty
Brashear, who muffed the easy chance
Tenant hit to short, who fumbled, the
ball going to left, where Martinke took
his turn at booting it while Shaw
scored. Another run was scored by the
Seals in the sixth. Griffin doubled to
right and Henley doubled TO left, seor-
ing him. The solitary run scored by
Vernon came in the eighth. Carlisle
was walked and Kitty Brashear singled
to left. Martinke singled through short
and Carlisle scored. Score:
