TACOMA WINS IN
FOURTH INKING
BRING TWO MEN AROUND THE
CIRCUIT
SERAPHS ARE SHUT OUT
Angels Are Unable to Do Anything
With Thomas' Offerings and Fail
to Score — Baum Spins
the Sphere
Tacoma, 2; Jms Angelp"; 0.
It all happened In the fourth inning.
The artistic productions of that lanky
young Seraphic pitcher, "Bonos"
Baum, were of great potency and ef
fectiveness in all but that fatal round.
But the cx-sandlotter was unable lo
slip over his usual variety of benders
in that period and a walk and two
large luscious blnglcs contributed to
the Tiger victory.
Thomas operated the slant battery
for the men from Tacoma town nnd
right valiantly did he perform on tho
mound. lie was found for a total of
four safe blngles but one In each in
ning was as good as the Seraphs could
The fourth opened with Lynch en
deavoring to smile the sphere which
he did successfully by sousing one
away to the amidship garden and clung
lovingly to the Initial corner. Gra
ham was handed a pasteboard. Ho
gan shoved down a neat sacrifice and
Lynch was advanced along to the
second station. Thomas then tore off
one of the rising kind to the center
pasture and Lynch spiked the terminal
patch.
Charley Doyle picked off a ripe one
and Jammed the ball to the left, and
while Arthur Ross was right there with
his trusty mit, he failed to pass th-;
ball along to Spies in time to prevent
Charley Graham from completing the
Journey rubberward.
That was all there was to the run
getting. The Seraphs made brave ef
forts to lift the sphere away for a
couple of circuit completers but Thomas
and the stone wall Tacoma fielding
proved just a trifle too much for the
Angels to overcome, try as they might.
There were but two base hits in the
game, the honors going to Nordyke and
Dillon in that line of endeavor. Tilings
looked bright for the Angels in ttie
second round. After Dillon expired on
a wallop ' to McLaughlin, Cravath
touched off a pretty swat to center and
Ross was tabbed safe on Doyle's error.
Cravath endeavored to pull off an an
nexation ceremony with the third bag
but this assault resulted disastrously.
Toman ended it all by passing over a
high one to McLaughlin.
After this the one, two, three order
was the prevailing rule for the Angel
stickers. They made desperate at
tempts to wallop the sphere but there
was nothing doing and the third angle
was forbidden territory.
The work of "Slats" Davis has been '
a revelation to many of the local fans
who believed that an umpire was mere
ly employed to be bullied and baited
by irate ball players. The misnamed
"Slats," who is really built upon the
lines which are supposed to be typi
cal of an alderman, has the Tigers and
Seraphs tamed nicely and there is not
a one of them but who lends instant
heed to his suggestions in regard to
coaching and other strategical moves
when they are made in an unlawful
manner. "Slats" is a real live um
pire and in addition to his strenuosily
knows the game thoroughly.

JAPS DEFEATED

PRESBYTERIANS WIN CLOSE
GAME
THEY TRIUMPH BY ONE RUN
McKnight's Slants Are Effective
Against Men of Nippon — Lose
Game in the Seventh
Inning
Occidental college, C; Waseda Uni
versity, 5.
The many cheers of the Japanese
baseball enthusiasts that journeyed out
to Fiesta park yesterday afternoon to
witness the game between the AVaseda
university team and the nine from Oc
cidental college failed to give the visi
tors enough "hurry up" to bring one
more man over the plate and bundle
up the game. The brown artists who
appear in the Waseda uniforms played
good ball, but there were gaps In their
defenses that the Highland Park forces
assaulted to the best advantage. With
the aid of some of the leather-lunged
ones thut graced the side lines they
managed to force the subjects of the
mikado into disorder for one little min
ute. It was just long enough to let
Bacon come out of cover and hie his
anatomy over the rubber and secure
victory for his team by the narrow
margin of one lone run.
The Presbyterians were the first on
the firing line and in spite of their
earnest efforts they could do nothing
but resolve to do better the next time
up.
The little brown men, however, did
the major part of their run-getting In
the initial inning. They raised the lo
cal collegians to the upper realms,
where good baseball Is unknown. Mr.
Jap stayed below and watched the as
cension gravely.
McKnight, who did the twirling for
Occidental, did not warm up for action
in the opening period and caused grave
concern among the palefaces when
they saw how things were going.
Hashldo walked and a groan issued
from the Presbyterian camp. Kano
the mighty was the next of the men
from the orient to wield the billet, and
wield it he did with a vengeance. The
oriental pitcher jammed the sphere to
center. Hosakawa. did not want to
pin his team's stick reputation too
high, so he fanned.
"With llashido on third and Kano one
patch behind him, and a mixture of
Japanese yells and Occidental slogans
coming from the bleachers, Yamawaki
stepped to the rubber as cool as tho
proverbial cucumber. He swung for a
two-bagger and the second and third
bases seemed to have no further at
traction to Kano ami Hashido and they
scored the first two round trips for
Waiedai
Ohara sent a pretty one to Hagerman
111 center Held, but "Hag" toyed it
around his pedal extremities long
enough to give Osklkawa a chance to
complete the circuit.
"When Occidental came to bat in the
second round they wero loaded for
bear. Bird reached the first station on
an error by Kano. Itoth advanced him
to BOL-ond and reached tlrst on a neat
place to center. Bird grabbed third
and llagerman rapped 0110 out, advanc
ing Hoth and scoring JSird.
Heal Boused a neat one to the right
pasture and gave Hoth a chance to
follow Bird's footsteps. Tho Japs failed
to cross in the third, but the Presby
terians took two more falls out of the
liorsehide. Kano gave Merrill trans
portation.
Bacon basted one to right field and
McKnight sent a speedy liner down to
Sunyama, who funibXed and in trying
to nab McKnight at first passed the
sphere over the first sack's head, and
while Izumatanl was trying to find the
leather Merrill and Bacon tapped the
tin.
The AVaseda men tied the score up
in the fourth by some clever stick
work.
Kono planted a nice one just over
second and took the keystone sack on
a passed ball.
Ilasakawa followed with a single to
right. Oshlkawa took a heavy swat at
the leather and sent it to the fence, giv
ing Kano plenty of time to cross the
rubber.
There was nothing- more doing until
the seventh, when Occidental succeed
ed in boosting their score two more
points. Thatcher was the first man to
swing the stick. He opened with a
heavy two-base drive and didn't take
time to stop at third when he saw Ba
con plant his anatomy behind the big
stick nnd oust the ball to center.
Bacon stole second and completed the
circuit by taking advantage of Bird's
hit to the popular amidship garden.
In the eighth round "Waseda brought
another man around. Izunitani was
safe at first on Hagerman's error,
stole second and took third on a passed
ball. Shishichl dispatched a grounder
past first and brought his compatriot
over.

SLASHES WOMAN
WITH HUGE DIRK
CRAZED, IT IS SAID, BECAUSE
SHE LEFT HIM
LURED HER AWAY FROM HOME
Former Editor of Spanish Paper De.
liberately Plans to Commit Mur
der, Declare Police
Officers
Crazed, it is said, because the woman
lie loved had left him, P. de P. Gutier
rez, formerly editor of L,a Gazetta, a
Spanish paper, attempted to take the
life of Airs. Francisco Ayala yesterday
morning:, according to the police, but
o\viii{j to her superior strength the wo
man escaped with only a deep wound
in her left arm.
The frenzied man enticed the woman
of his affection into a vacant room at
the corner of Howard and Aliso streets,
it is charged, and under the guise of
handing her some business papers,
drew from his pocket a long dagger
and thrust it at Mrs. Ayala's heart.
As she threw up her hand to protect
herself the steel blade sank deep into
her arm. Severely wounded, the wo
man grappled with the man and after
a tiaht of several minutes succeeded in
freeing herself, but a few seconds lat
er fell, faint from loss of blood and
exhaustion.
Jt is said that Mrs. Ayala has for the
last fourteen years lived in the same
house with Gutierrez and was known
among their friends as his wife. A
mouth ago she declares that she was
forced to leave him on account of his
brutality and since that time has been
living with friends in the city.
Early yesterday morning Gutierrez
is said to have called at Howard and
Ramirez streets, where Mrs. Ayala was
living. He asked the woman to go
with him, saying he wished to give her
some business papers before he left for
San Francisco in the afternoon.
The man and woman, accompanied by
Monica Ayalon, niece of Mrs. Ayala,
went to the home of Mrs. Supano, cor
ner of Howard and Aliso streets. While
tho niece waited in the hall Gutierrez
and the woman went into a vacant
room.
Says Arm Saved Her
"I asked him what papers ho wished

drew a dagger on me and made a
thrust at my heart. I threw up my

sailant, she ran from the room and
fell into the arms of her niece, who at
once set up a cry for help. Patrolman
Osterloh heard the cries of the woman j
and ran to her assistance. Gutierrez
was still standing in the vacant room
and the patrolman hurriedly arrested
and handcuffed him, then turned hia
attention to the woman, who was ly
ing unconscious on the floor, bleeding
from the wound in her arm. The pa
trol wagon was called and both were
taken to the police station, where the
woman received medical attention and
the man was placed behind the bars.
It was nece-.sary to take eight stitches
in the woman's arm to close the "wound.
Early in the afternoon a friend called
at the hospital and took her away in
a carriage.

make any statment in reference to the
trouble, but listened to everything said
to him in a cool, defiant manner.
