Five hundred and eighty-two base ball
cranks went out to White Bear yester-
day afternoon TO see the game between
the St. Paul and Chicago teams. The
breeze that came sweeping through the
grand stand from the lake had pretty
thoroughly chilled everybody by $40.
the hour at which Umpire Hagan, in a
pretty gray suit, started the game. The
first ball pitched suited ShaTer, and he
lined il out among the bushes at the
lakeside, and when Rocks found the
sphere Shafer sat on a bench tanning
himself. From this to the end of
the game the locals larruped the
leather as they never did before.
Home runs. triples and doubles followed
each other in bewilderng profusion.
In the first four innings eight hits
were made. lwo being home runs, two
for three bases. three for two, and only
one for single base. st. Paul earned
five runs in these innings. scored a
couple OF ciphers, earned three more
tallieS in the seventh, and added
another in the ninth. Thirty-eight
bases were made off nineteen hits.
The MaroOns also Slugged the ball
with pretty good success, although the
hit of ln9raham and two of those of
LANCE were due to the roughnesS of
the grounds. In every inning of the
game both sides had men on bases. and.
i'll spite of the Wre tched condition of
the grounds. the fielding was at times
sharp and pretty. Shafer and M0riarity
each made Il One-handeG circus catch,
and a neat double was executed from
deep center by Crogan, Hengle and
Dugdale. CrOgan created not a little
amusement by hisEpeculiar method of
coaching.
THE GAME
was opened with home run by Shafer.
Murphy was retired from pitcher to
first, and Carroll basted the sphere into
the brush for three bases. Reilly hit
the ball to deep center, Carroll being
midway between third and the plate.
CrOgan caught the ball, and Carroll re-
turned quickly to third and tried to
make the plate while it was being
tielded in. but two pretty throws. from
center to second and from second to
catcher, cut him off. Veach started the
second inning with drive to the right
field fence for two bases, and scored on
Pickett'S triple. Carroll made the cir
cult of the bases in the third Oh a hit
over the embankment. In the fourth

roll and Reilly scored on two singles
and two doubles, and Reilly made a
home run in the ninth. This was prob
ably an out. Crogan ran with the ball
into the brush and behind Il knoll. fall
ing down. but throwing up his left hand
at once. in which he had the ball.
Hagan could not see the catch, and,
giving the runner the benefit of the
doubt, decided in his favor. The Ma
Rooms scored their first tally in the
fourth inning. Lange hit grounder
which bounded over Pickett's head, and
MOriarity took base on ReilIy's failure
to stop his grOunder. Hengle hit the
ball OH bound to Reilly, who stopped
