THEY TOOK THREE STRAIGHT. Frisco Wins the Last Game of the Home Series. . Young Carsey Pitched Good Ball But Was Poorly Supported. Stockton Was In Good Trim and Downed the Senators— Results of Contests on Eastern Diamonds. Wilfred Carsey pltchel bis first game for the Oakland team yesterday afternoon and lost It. It was not bis fault, though, that the victory went to the home team. True, be was sized up lor thirteen hits, but they were not bunched ln ».iy Inning outside or the eighth aud tenth. Thirteen hits with nine runs, and only oue earned, shows the kind of support he received. The Colonels played a mean tieldiug game be hind him, their errors all proving unusually cosily. The now pitcher was, of course, Ignorant of tbe weaknesses of the opposing batters, and Dungau, wbo Is a green backstop, could not coach him. Carsey, however, In all bis work proved himself to be a very clever twiner. He has great speed, fair curves, including a good drop ball, and appears to be imbued with coutl uetic* iv bis ability— an excellent quality In a loxnian. lie Is exceedingly quick lv his move ments, and frequently put a ball over the plate wheu the ba tier was off his guard. Carsey fields nis position lUe a veteran, and some of his as sists on sharp hits were pietllly performed. • The Oakland* weut to pieces iv the fourth lu ring, when two men were ou bases and Hanley hit a giouuder to Stickney. The third baseman threw the ball into the grand staud and Hauley followed the other two runners across the plate. A little while later Kbrighl hit for a double aud Levy batted a ball in front of the plate. Dungau picked the ball up aud threw It to Isaacson, who muffed. Levy started to steal secoud and Libnght ran toward home. The ball was thrown mo and returned to the catcher, but Ebright stored on Duugau's error. In the second Inning bad case uf "rattle" also let lv two Frisco runs. Jim McDonald and Lohman were the ouly men in the team who played decent ball. i Ihe Frlscos did not put up much better ball than their opponents. Lookabaiigh was wild in bis delivery, and his lack of control was a de cided factor lv the Oakl.iucls' runs. Iv the Hiiro m. in. he filled the bases by giving two meu first base uu halls and hit the next batter up, aud the ibiee men subsequently scored. Kbnght and Sweeney exchauged positions, ou account o[ Ihe former having a sore baud, aud both played well Ui their uew stations. Sweeuey and Hauley led lv the balling tor their side, each securing turee bit*. Half a dozen double plays served to makefile game mine iuieresilug, and wheu the uiuiii lu lling ended Willi the score a lie, the excitement was Intense. For Frisco in the tenth inning Shea hit an Inlield single to Stickney, stole sec ond, went to third ou Sweeney's sacrifice aud scored on Hanley'* single.

Sacuamento, May 24.— Stockton took. the game from the home team to-day by bitting the ball bard and through the very amateurish field ing ot the home team. Roberts was sick and Mcliiile tiled to play left field, hut after making two eriors lie was placid behind tbe bat. Bow man going to left, where he put up a good game, Guitar at third put up great ball also and hit well. Zelgler was bit bard, the visitors having but little trouble lv hitting either his speed or curves. No doubt bis support disheartened him. as but iwo of the thirteen runs were earned. Hapeman was hit hard enough to win au aver age game, but be kept the hits well scattered, lioodeuoiigh injured a finger in the first Inning, which probably acconuts lot bis two errors. Mc- Hale could neither catch nor throw the ball and piled -up four eriors. F'ogarty played a good game al second, as did Reitz. Stapleton hit a hard liner to center, and tbe bull, taking a side bound, he scored a home run. Smith, who took Roberts' place, lined out a single, but had no fielding chance's.

[Kecord-Lulou, May 24th.] Games* did not have even the poor excuse of ' revenge to bolster the HI Annum hunting down of his victim. On coutiaty, Judas-like, lie posed as the friend of Arnold, and with amazing simu lation of sympathy condoled with the uuforiuuale man into whose beau he was pitilessly driving the cruel steel. That the wretch who concocted the plan for tbe ruiu of Arnold's household and the covering of his children Willi a mantle ol shame should have sought certain of the press as avenues through winch to mure directly strike his victim Is a cause for humiliation to all engaged iv jour nalism, since the thought thai suggested the use of thai medium must have beeu the outcome of a belief ln the venality of newspapers, lv turu due to the disreputable course ibat a portion of ibe press has pursued iv icceui years. [Colusa Herald— Extra, May 23d. At ten minutes to 11 o'clock last night the jury lv the Arnold case reiurued a verdict of acquittal, having beeu out less than three hours. Ihe acquittal uot only sets him free, but is a complete vindication of his character and an in dorsement of Ins action from beginning to end. A large crowd of people were waning at the Western Union lelegiaph office expecting to get the verdict at auy moment, and when It came most of the crowd rushed Into the office and sent cougiaiulatory lelegiams lo Mr. Arnold. He will leeelve a royal welcome ou bis return to this city. - [Grass Valley Telegraph.] Tue defense made a strong case of Justifiable killing, The man 1.1.0 had minted a lot ol cir culars that detained a woman mid then mailed them to persous 111 the conimuulty wheie the de tained Mem, m lived deserved 10 be shot down like a dog. ll was proved 011 the tnat mat Hie man who was killed had said he would have Arnold's money or his wife or bis lite, aud that lie 1 esoi led 10 anonymous slanders to etlecl his purpose, It will be siiauge if the jury in this case has hesitated an Instant in finding a verdict of not guilty, lv all such cases we are iv lavor of the slayer eveiy time, and we only tegret thai In suck cases the fiction of Insanity has to be re sorted to by couusel for defense iv order to gel 111 Ihe evidence that Justifies killing. Iv the Aruold case, however, the insanity was com pletely pioved, and the insanity was justifiable uuder the Circumstances as was the killing. We are In favor of haugiuc lor inuider, and stilt we believe lv much of tue killing that the letter of the law lot bids and prououuees murder, lv the preseut case if Aruold had uot done some snoot ing be would himself have deseived the execra tion of all men, whlcb is worse tbau killing him. [Stockton Independent, May 21th.] Garness' crime was oue of those for which tbe law makes uu adequate provision. The absence of a filling ueiicliy almost foices Ibe Injured persou to lake the law lino his own baud*. It is a crime beside which uiuider becomes venial, and in the degree of its atrocity it tar surpasses auy form iv which that crime has appeared lv the present ceutuiy, perhaps. In considering the manner lv which Arnold ex ecuted Ills vengeance upon Garness there is some disposition to censure him lor having shot down a man who was uot well proved to have beeu aimed. Wbat mau, seeing his wife or child beiug approached by an assassin, would give the mis creant a chance for ins life I Who would give a mad dog, a rattlesnake or a tarantula a chauce tv defend Itself alter it bad inflicted a sling? What woman, it she were foiced locboose, would not ureter the attack of au assassin, a rep tile or death 111 auy loiin lo a loss ot reputation, without which lite would be a burden— au untie tiou. Stockton Kail, Slay 23d.) The acquittal of Arnold tor tbe killing of Gar ness will be received with hearty approbation by the public. 11 ever a scouudi el nchly deserved his late It was the woman- vil Gatuess; and II ever a man was justified iv laklug vengeance lulo tils mc ii bauds It was tue luted and agonized husband and father Aruold. Garuess deserved his late and Arnold that which he has received— his liberty. THE FEAST OF WEEKS.
