Show Roxy Middleton Does Some Deadly Execution of Timely Variety; Double Plays Feature. By OHASLES DRYDEN. OAKLAND, Cal., March 22. A mixed foursome was played today by selected talent from the Chicago and Oakland first and second clubs. The big leaguers lost, 6 to 3, with Wilson, Shay and Wort man In the lineup. The latter performed brilliantly bril-liantly at second base. It, was a see-saw battle until the Oaks lit on Carter in the seventh. - Eight ill, maimed and mangled Cub athletes ath-letes did their feeble best to populate the stand, which was almost devoid of cash customers. Mann, Wolfe and Zeider sprang Charley-horses catching early trains and stage coaches. EHeve Yerkes has a badly-spiked hand and Dillhoefer's lame wrist slipped another joint. Leland Benton, cadet catcher, skinned his knee making a hook elida in a depot restaurant somewhere in the prune belt and still limps. The other patients will survive. Emil Meusel gave out an Interview at Los Angeles fn which he said the Cubs starved him. This victim of training-trip agonies gained eight pounds while touring tour-ing with the second team. He must have suffered untold tortures taking on that weight. The Oaks found Deraaree for two' runs in the first. Chadbourne's triple, a pass, a safety by Middle ton and a force play delivered the goods. Wort man's double in the fourth counted Cy Williams, who got a start on Goodbred's fumble. The pitcher made a misplay on Chick after two were out in the fifth. The hits of Wolter and Williams tied the score. In the last of the fifth the Oaks turned loose a volley of three safeties, which gave them a one-run lead. Along In the sixth, with Mr. Prough pitching, some wild pitches, passed bails and a pair of swats deadlocked the going once more- Nick Carter sifted into the fracas in the sixth and Hack Miller exploded ex-ploded a triple with one man on. That blow stuck the Oaks in front in this most thrilling of combats. With the bases filled in the seventh, Middle-ton sent two runs across with a single to right. Before leaving these shores President Weeghman gave Charley Williams a bag of gold, told him to collect all the baseball talent on both sides of the bay and treat them to a banquet. The big feed was stowea away last nignt in ban Francisco. CHICAGO. A.B. R. H. P.O. A. E.
