THOMAS DOES GREAT WORK A young fellow by the name of Thomas went into the box for the' Tigers yesterday afternoon and put the visitors out of busi ness. Lehman's bunch simply couldn't find him, and when the game ended Taco ma had four scores nd the total result of Oakland's work was represented by a symmetries] ,-.,„• of zeros. It was a . lendid game from start to finish. The ligers demonstrated the fact that they could play ball and more than made Up i 'i- the bum exhibition they put up at the opening game Wednesday afternoon. Keefe was to have pitched the game, but he was taken sick and Thomas was sub stituted. The result shows that a worthy substitute was selected. Although Thomas deserves considerable credit for bis part in bringing about the resut, there are others who had some thing to do with it. Graham, who stands behind the bat, did some wonderful work, and the infield,' Xordyke, Sheehan, Casey and Kagan, were right on their toes ail the tine and .seemed to be at the right place at the right time. he only error made by the Tigers was when Kheehan made a fumble, but he re covered in time to throw to Xordyke. who made a magnificent stop and prevented a I.ohmnnite from making a base. While the Oakland boys met defeat, it must be s;id that they put up a bright, snappy game. They were simply outclassed for (lie time being.

Up to the fifth inning Seattle got only one clean hit off Thiel nian, while Portland had touched Hughes up for two two-baggers and a single and hod made two runs, and Seattle had failed to score.

That the colored delegation to the con ference will ask for a 1 colored bishop as itu common right is generally believed, but the outcome is a matter only of conjecture. The relation of the 1001 conference to the problem in the South, and the extent to which ii will go 3 toward placing the white arid colored Methodist on the name footing has been a mooted question in the Methodist church for month*. lie church and the government of the country have given the black nan equal rights to serve. Will they give him equal rights to rule? If.the conference elects a colored'bishop in .May, it will have made a precedent and | answered the question for the church. Four years ago the colored man knocked at the door of Methodism unking for thin double right and his cause was defeated. A year ago colored delegates to the Presbyterian (ienera! Assembly meeting in l.ii- Angeles made the tame plea to the I'resbyterianism, and they were put off until some more convenient time. The election of a bishop in the May con ference would be looked upon as ,i step toward social equality, > not only for the' colored people of Methodism, but for the entire colored race, Balloting for the election to the episco pacy is scheduled to commence Monday, .May 10.
