ENSHEIMER MURDER MAY HAVE
BEEN INSIDE JOB"

Emil Emsheimer, wealthy hat max
er, was murdered by man familiar
with the work shop at 81 E. Lake St.,
probably an employe, the police hint
ed today.
Detectives, furnished with the adj
dresses of employees of the strangled
man, have been quietly working for
clues which may disclose the slayer.
A search of the Office disclosed
notes in favor of the dead man which
showed that Harry Sachs, son-in-law,
owed him So, 200. A receipt was found
which indicated that he carried a
$21,000 accident insurance policy
with the Travellers ms. Co.
While the police are working on
the murder theory, they suggest the
possibility of a suicide. The rope
which was still tight around his neck
when the cold body was found might
have been tied by the old man him
self and the bruise on his head could
have been caused by the fall to the
floor.
A suspect is under surveillance.

WOLVES COP 5 OUT OF I

San Francisco, May Sacramento

the Oaks last week. The Wolves are

tiOn of having copped five out of the
soven games played on the club is now
reposing in third place with a com
Portable lead over Los Angeles.
Oakland climbed out of the cellar
after its series with Sah Francisco
week before last, only to be showed
back again after clashing with Sacra-
mento. Kid Mohler, the western in
fielder, aided largely in the victories
Of the Wolves. His batting was the
sensation of the week, and he capered
about second base like a youngster,
executing double plays with the ease
and speed of Johnny Evers. Mohler s
two bagger was responsible for the
Wolves annexing the afternoon game
Yesterday after the Oaks had won in
the morning.
The Wolves not only out batted the
Oaks but they played rings around
them at every angle Of the game. All
of the Oak pitchers looked alike to
Wolverton's men, and as result the
clubs batting average was boosted
materially. Sacramento will clash with
San Francisco at Sacramento this week
while Venice end Oakland will meet in
San Francisco. Portland makes the
long jump to Los Angeles for this
week mix with Dillon 5 Angels.

Larry Pape, Former Red sox Twirler
May Report to Mccredit at Los
Angeles.

Portland, May although the
Portland club managed only to break
even with the San Francisco visitors
last week, the team play of the club
was a great improvement over that Of
the two preceding weeks and Manager
McCredie went away satisfied that
his champions will begin to act like
the champions Of old when they strike
the warm weather in California for the
next three weeks.
Although Hi West, Mac s star pitch
or, has been losing enough games to
cause concern, the two he dropped this
week were of the "hard luck" variety,
because his mates made few runs be-
hind his good twirling. Harry Krause
was able to break the winning streak
of Henry Pernoll, Of the Seals, who
stubbed his toe on his ninth start and
was batted out of the box in Saturday s
game.
McCredie is hopeful that Pitcher
Larry Pape, formerly of the Boston
Red Sox, will report to him at Los
Angeles this week He also expects
to be strengthened by the addition OF
Pitchers Harry Gardner or Reiger OF
st. Paul and Catcher Yantz Of the
Cleveland American association club.
Manager Del Howard of the Seals
started before his club left for Sacra
mento that Pitcher Barham, who wa
drafted from Victoria by Cincinnati

ITCHY SALT RHEUM
Sometimes Called Eezema-Removed
by Hoods sarsaparilla.

Salt rheum is one Of the worst
and unfortunately one Of the most
common Of all diseases. How it
reddens the skin, itches, oozes, dries
and scales, and then does this all
over again! Sometimes it covers
the whole body with infamed,
burning patches and causes intense
suffering.
Salt rheum comes from humors
in the blood. This is why local ap-
plications do 80 little good. It will
continue to exist, annoy, pain and
perhaps agonize, until these humors
have been removed.
Ask your druggist for Hoods
Sa-aparilla. 1t goes to the source
Of the trouble. 1t cleanses the
blood of the humors that cause salt
rheum. 1t has given perfect satis-
faction in thousands Of cases. Get
it today.

ANGELS DIsAPPoINT FANS AT
HOME BY RECENT SLUMP IN
PLAYING.

Los Angeles, May 4.--Ios Angeles
fans hardly know whether to rejoice
or weep today as the result of last
weeks play in the Coast league.
Venice, the result Of consistent work,
crowded past San Francisco and into
the lead while the Angels lust as con
sistently continued to drop their games,
and fell to fourth place, With four
games in five ON the Tigers side of
the series, the clubs were to meet to-
day in postponed game.
The Angels were distinct disap-
pointment TO the home fehs all week.
The alibi provided by injuries to the
club was not sufficient to excuse the
ship shod work Of the players, They
dragged on and off the field and
slumped through their work generally.
The Tigers leave tonight for San
Francisco to meet the Oaks. Portland
was scheduled to fatten at the ex
pense of Berry's club.

ARE SMASHED
BEEsoN CLEARS BAR AT FEET
7 5-16 INCHEs-C0AST RECORD
IN TWO MILE BROKEN.

San Francisco, CAL, May "a
worlds record was broken and another
worlds mark was tied at the Pacific
Coast Conference track and field meet
at the Oval yesterday.
Eddie Beeson of the Olympic club
cleared the bar at feet 7 5-16 inches
in the high jump and broke the former
mark Of feet inches, held by George
Horiue, formerly of Stanford.
Beeson's great jump was made in q
special high jumping contest, put on
by the conference managers to give
HORNE, who now also belongs to the
Olympic club, and Beeson chance to
better the existing mark. Both
warmed up in good style at the lower
heights and the bar was set for the
record. Beeson cleared it by the clos
est possible margin, the bar wobbhng
considerably after he had landed in
the sawdust, but it stayed on the
pins.
One Of the first to congratulate Bee
son was Horine, who had just seen his
own record showed into Oblivion.
Fred Kelly tied the world 8 record or
