PERRY DUPLICATES IN NINTH
Brackenridge Beaten Before He
Could Get Warmed Up,
Allowing Four Runs
Brilliant fielding; and lots of hittinp
featured the Becond game of the series
between Sacramento and Vernon yes
terday and the cellar eh imps gri
..;; „" victory to the tui f;*o "
because they were more fortunate In
placing their hits. Two home runs with
men on bases helped the Senate
win, but Jimmy Whalen, who tossed
for the visiting outfit, was as much
to blame as anybody for the defeat of
the locals.
Brackenridge had his bad inning in
the opening round and before he could
pull himself together had allowed Sac
ramento two hits, one of them a home
run, ■ and four tallies. He Issued two
free passes In this round, too, and, un
fortunately for him, they had to come
just ahead of the home run drive, so
that the tour-sack< r netted four runs.
Darringcr, first man up, drew four
■wide ones. Van Buren bunted and
Brackenridge threw to Roy Brashear
at second to catch Darringer, but Hoy
dropped the ball. Perry popped to one
in trying to bunt, hut Danzig was
passed to first and the bases were
filled. Then Briggsg went to bat and
after ' getting three balls and two
strikes, he lammed the hall twenty feet
over the left field fence and four runs,
enough to win the game, trotted home.
Vernon looked threatening for a time
jn their half of the first, but only one
scored. Carlisle opened for Vernon
with a double to center. Burrell flew
to left, as did Martlnke, and Roy
Brashear drew a base on balls. Coy
singled to left and Carlisle got over
the pan.
Sacramento added another in the
fourth, after two hands were down.
Darringer again singled to center and
■went to second when Coy booted the
ball to the fence. Van Buren's single
to. right scored Darringer. In the
ninth Sacramento again landed on
Brackenridge for two hits, one of them
n home run, and scored two more.
With one down, Van Buren beat out
a hunt down the third base line.
Perry then raised the ball over the j
right field fence, scoring Van ahead
of him. .
Vernon scored its second run in the
eighth on two hits and an out. Car
lisle got his third hit of the game
and Burrell also singled. Martinke
forced Burreli at second, Carlisle go-
Jng to third. Brashear hit down to
short, who threw him out at first, Car
lisle scoring. In the ninth a, rally was
attempted, -but it amounted only to
one run. Lindsay raised a high one
back of third that Boardman, Perry
and Darringer dashed after, but let
drop between them. Kitty Brashear,
batting for Brackenridge, doubled to
i,'-!: 1 and Lindsay scampered home.
It looked rather bad for Sacramento
tut this stage of affairs, as the heavy
Btickers were in order for Vernon, but
Carlisle popped to Boardman and end
ed hopes for the Cutups to even tie
the score.
Both teams play again this after
noon, lint will transfer the scene of
activity to Vernon park. Schafer or
Hltt will twirl for Vernon and Hunt or

Rialto Gossip
Sacramento proved ■ surprise to the
fans yesterday by the rough manner
in which the batting brigade handled
Mr. Brackenridge In the Brat and laat
Innlnga. For a bunch of cellar artists
to din U]< two homo runs in one day
oft a pitcher who has humbled tho
league leaders and contender! is a bit
to,, much of a shock to be overlooked,
two home runs, accidentals, as
they were, won tin- game, as they net
ted six runs of the seven scored by
Sacramento, but as Vernon was ex
pected to win the entire series, the
loss of one game was rather disap
pointing, and especially so after it was
brought about in such a sensational
manner. Vernon had no trouble what
ever in loHfinK for eight Innings and
then Koine ahead and winning the
opening Ramp, but they could not ;;<■(
dose to tin' home-run boys yesti-rday.
The trams will line up this afternoon
at Vernon, and unless another freak of
fate comes to the rescue, Vernon will
redeem itself. With Sehafer. Hitl.
Hensltng and Willett yet to be heard
from, and Carson due for another same
in this section, it looks like six in
seven right now.
Klein, the new l,os Angeles pltcMSr,
is fast earning the right to be known
as the original Kid Hard Luck. He
has lost both games he has pitched for
the Angels, although he has outpltched
the opposition twirler In each game.
His performances indicate, however,
that he Is a classy sort of slant manu
facturer and that he will do if the
Ansel batters wake up and help him
I out.
Kid Dalton, who always ' has been
regarded as having about all the game
ness that any fighter could lay claim
to, is acting very peculiarly regarding
his match with Fhil Brock for June 15
at Maricopa. After a lot of haggling
the match was made on his own terms
and twenty-four hours later he lopes
through with a cancellation because
he is afraid of the alkali water up that
way. Although he has fought there
three times, winning every fight, he
decided yesterday that the water did
not suit him and lie would not fight
Brock there. This does not look good.
Prank Fields, who is to stage the fight
if it ever occurs, has gone there to
make preparations for it and has gone
to some expense' already. Dalton sure
ly knew all about the water when he
made the match and his excuse now
causes a ripple of amusement among
the fans, who are beginning to believe
that he is afraid of Brock. This Is a
new streak in Dalton. as he always
BOX CORBETT? NO;
HE GOES FISHING
Camp Visitors, for Fourth Time,
Given Standoff on Long
Expected Bout
BEN LOMOND. June (.— Once again
Jim Jeffries did not live up to his pro
gram, and for the fourth time the
Initial boxing bee between the big; fel
low and '•Gentleman Jim" Corbett was
unexpectedly posponed today. The op n
air ring, an exact copy of the one in
which Jeffries and Johnson will settle
the championship on July 4, had re
ceived the final touch. Corbett was on
hand and everything ready except Jef
fries, who took a sudden notion that he
wanted to go fishing, and fishing he
went, accompanied by a party of
friends.
The most keenly disappointed of the
large number of camp visitors on hand
were a bunch of eastern newspaper
men. several of Whom had traveled
across the continent and expected to
gel a line on Jeffries in bis boxing
bout with Corbett today. Jeffries left
in iln- morrflng and promised to return
at noon, BO many of the visitors to the
camp waited, but the big fellow forgot
his promise or found fishing so good
that he decided to make a day of It
and did not return until tonight.
The real reason why Jeffries has hreri
reluctant to do more boxing this week
is no doubt a slightly sprained thumb.
An effort has been made to keep this
quiet and to attribute the frequent
postpoing of the sparring with Corbett
to Jeffries' whims, but the fact remains
that the big fellow Injured his thumb
a week ago and has done no boxing
since.
Trainer Cornell declared that the
thumb is healed, but Jeffries apparently
has been unwilling to tuke any chances
With it. That he would positively box
tomorrow was the promise made by
Jeffries to ' !orb< ti today.
"I'll spar every day for the next two
weeks," he told th" trainer. "Some
times I'll box twice a day. then the
next day I'll do nothing but light
work."
The camp formed Into a bucket bri
gade last night and fought a brush lire
which started within a few yards of
the garage where several automobiles,
including Jeffries', are kept.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 0. —Jack
Johnson has always been i systematic

treat. Without a hint of putting <>n
the gloves the colored man Strolled into

He wrestled around with tin. medicine

be well for those intending to go to

Jeffries and Johnson to Incorpo
rate Concern to Handle
Moving Pictures
[Asswlnteil Press]
SAN FRANCISCO. June 9.—Business
matters in connection with the incor
poration of the moving picture com
pany occupied the attention of the
promoters and the icprescntatives of
the two fighters today. Sam Berger
came up from Ben Lomond for the
purpose of discussing the subject for
Jeffries, and although Johnson was not
present it is understood that he has
fully outlined to Tex Rickard what he
wants done in the mattei.
.The actual incorporation has not
decided upon. Briefly, however,
the plan is for Jeffries and Johnson
and their representatives to constitute
tii ■ board of directors. Rickard and
Gleason are to have one-third interest
in the profits, but at the same time
they consider themselves stockholders
and will demand the right to be con
sulted in whatever steps are taken.
"Our position is this," said Gleason:
"Jeffries and Johnson are to share and
share alike in order that neither will
get the worst of things, but Rickard
ami myself are to be consulted at all
times, as we are vitally interested in
the pictures."
Sam Berger admitted today that a
proposition had been made to buy out
the principals, but he added that be
cause of the unsettled state of affairs
existing between Johnson and George
IJttle that nothing bad been accom
plished.
"We have received numerous offers
for the pictures," he said, "but natur
ally the offers are for a controlling in
terest. I don't care to go Into details
as to the matter, but there has been
one. offer for $100.00(1 for all the rights.
Because of the tangle at the Johnson
camp no one knows whether Little will
have to Vie considered, and that makes
it hard for us to proceed."

A BIG D AND A LITTLE ONE
When the proud time came that little
Elmer was to discard kilts for man
lier garb hi.° young and inexperienced
mother made those important gar
ments, his first pants. She made them
bloomer fashion, as was then the style,
and perhaps she was a little generous
with the material, for when Elmer, at
tired in them, went to grandma's
room and proudly but anxiously turned
round and round before her that lady
exclaimed:
"Why, Elmer! You look like an
Amsterdam Dutchman'"
Little sister, who had been standing,
a breathless audience, in the doorway,
fled precipitately down the hall to
mamma's room.
"Mamma," she said In a shocked
whisper, "grandma said bruver look
like a dam Dutchman!"
