The Dudes won another victory yesterday
over the Muskegon club in score of 9 to f..
The visitors opened badly, with slow and
erratic fielding, but they finally settled down
and did fine work. They batted Caruthers
as few clubs have ever batted him. In
the second and third inning they
hit him for six bases, with total of nine.
Walker made Il wild throw and Isaacson
made another, which constituted the fielding
errors by the home club and three runs were
made, but two of them were earned. The
Minneapolis boys got six runs in on the first
inning, mostly through the errors
of the Muskegons, who seemed
to have been demoralized. They were first
TO go to bat and they went out in one, two,
three order. Then Kinzie got first on the
tumble by the short stop. Reid's fly was
taken in center field and Walker made safe
hit, Andrus struck to the pitcher, who threw
wild over third baseman's head, Kinzie
scoring, and Walker scored on Caruthers'
clean hit. The bases were then locked by
Casey being given his first on bad balls.
Nichols then made base hit, which brought
Andrus and Caruthers home. A wild pitch
allowed Nichols to tally. Fisher got
his first on Browns bad muf, but was thrown
out at third by the catcher, Isaacson mean
while having sent a fly to Cook. Brown, for
the visitors slugged the ball for three
bases and came home on Isaacson's
Wild throw over Kinzie's head. Wrig hit
struck out. Andrews picked up Cooks
grounder and threw him out to Isaacson.
Horton made base hit, but Nelson retired
from pitcher to first base. Minneapolis got
goose egg. Patten struck for base and
was backed by beautiful two-basc hit by
Donahue Patten scoring. Donahue scored
on Walsh's sacrifice. Myers popped
up fly to Isaacson. Brown followed with a
hit, and went to third on q wild pitch, and
came to the plate on Wrights clean hit.
Wright was thrown out by Walker at second
base. Andrus hit for two bases, but was
retired on felder's choice ut third on Caru-
Tiers hit. The latter tailed on Casey's three
base hit, and Casey scored on Nichols base
hit, and Fishers hit sent Nichols to
second, who was retired at
third on ielders choice the short stop assist
ing. Isaacson sent a grounder to Myers
and forced Fisher ont ut second base.
Nichols then went into the box and Caruth-
ers played brilliant left field game. Only
one more run was made in the game and
that by Andrus of the home club in the
seventh inning, and it was an earned one.
Following is the score:

bat against the battery of clarkson and

bat against the battery of Clarkson and
Lockwood and an excellent battery it was,
as it proved too muchfor our boys, as the large
number of outs on strikes shows. 1t looked
as though they feared Schomberg's heavy
batting, as they allowed him to take his base
on balls on three innings, and it was only
by reaching for the balls that he hit it in the
eighth inning, and was only able to
gave it a small tip sending it to the second
baseman. Clarkson pitches good drop
ball, which is very deeeiving to the strikers.
The four runs made by the visitors in the
first inning appeared to dishearten our boys,
and they did not play with their usual vim.
They considered themselves overmatched,
but were not so very much so after all. The
visitors were unable to make any hard hits
except on the first inning. West made a
two Dagger and three. Quinn and Pickett
made in that inning two errors, Assisting the
visitors in getting their four runs. In the
fourth, through errors of Whitney and Faatz,
the home team, got two runs and in the sixth
Shomberg and Brown scored by an errors by
FaatZ. In the seventh errors by Pickett and
Roache gave runs to the visitors. However,
errors were easy on each side. The umpire
is sharp, and his decisions were pretty fair,
though some thought that Fowler had first
base when he was put out But one on the
line has better chance of seeing and judg-
ing than one on the stand. Tomorrow will
be an extra interesting game, both batteries
being changed. Peters will have his men in
the very best condition, and will set them an
example of good play, as he did to-day. The
following is the score:

81 have been afflicted for twenty years with an
obstinate skin disease, called by some M. d.
psoriasis and others, leprosy, commencing on
my scalp, and in spite of all l could do, with the
help of the most skilful doctors, it slowly but
surely extended, until year ago this winter it
covered my entire person in form of dry scales.
For the last three years have been unable to do
any labor and suffering intensely all the time.
Every morning there could be nearly dustpan
full of scales taken from the sheet on my bed,
some of them half as large as the envelope con-
tanning this letter. In the latter part of winter
my skin commenced cracking open. tried ev-
erything, almost, that could be thought of, with
out any relief. The 18th of June started West,
in hopes 1 could reach the Hot Springs. ! reach
ed Detroit and was so low I thought l should
have to go to the hospital, but finally got as far as
far as Lansing, Mich, where had sister living.
One DR. treated me about two weeks, but
did me no good, All through had but short
time to live, earnestly prayed to die. Cracked
through the skin all over my back, across my
back, across my ribs arms, hands, limbs, feet
badly swollen, toe-nails came Oft, fnger-nalls
dead and hard as bone, hair dead, dry, and life
less as old straw. o, my God! how did suffer.
'sMy sister had small part of a box of Cuta-
cura in the house. She wouldn't give up; said,
.We will try Cuticura Some was applied on
one hand and arm. Eureka! there was relief;
stopped the terrible burning sensation from the
word 60 They Immediately got the CUTIcURA
REsoLvENT, CUTICURA and CUTICURA SOAP. l
commenced taking tablespoonful of Resoiv
ent three times day, after meals; and bath
once day, water about blood heat, used Cuti-
cura Soap freely; applied Cuticura morning and
evening. Result returned to my home in just
six weeks from time 1 left, and my skin as
smooth as this sheet of paper.

Notes.

Bay City vs. St. Paul this afternoon at the
West Seventh street park.
The GLOBE is the only paper in the north
west that has correct summary of the
Northwestern league games-GLoBE. Wrong
neighbor, The GLOBE is usually correct, but
this week it is ''off,'' giving Quincy two
games too many. The Journal is the only
paper that has correct ummary.-Jou1nal.
When we start out to prove anything we
generally do It to everybody's satisfaction
before we finish up the job. We are going
TO show the Minneapolis Journal now that
the Quincy team was really in second place
last Saturday night with thirty-three games
won instead of thirty-one, as given in the
Journal. Quincy won one of the two games
played with Minneapolis at the opening OF
the season, the other of the three being post
pom led by rain. The other winnings of the club
are as follows in order: May 6, Z, s, three
of Saltwater; 10. ~, 49, three of st. Paul; Is,
II, two of Terre Haute ;.21. one of Fort
Wayne; "a, 81, two of Grand Rapids; 80, 30,
three of Muskegon, two games being played
on the 30th; June 2, one of Bay City, one OF
the games being postponed by rain and the
other won by Bay City; 5, z, two OF Saginaw;
9, 10, two of st. Paul; 10, one of Minneapo-
lis; II, 10. two of Saltwater; 81, "a, 26,
three of Milwaukee; IS, 30, July ! and 2,
