ANOTHER VICTORY.
WHEELING WINS, HANDS DOWN.
Jack Dunn TwirlS Magnifcently for the
Home Team,
WHILE MORRISON is POUNDED,
The Race for Second Place is Very
Close

Wheeling knocked the spots eff of the
Mansfield marauders yesterday afternoon,
Just as they could have done on the pre-
vious two days had Kennedy and the
umpire been fair. The game was very
peculiar one in several respects, the prin-
cipal one of which was the fact that TIE
four tallies made by the Mansfeldera were
all on home run hits, and another was
that Wheeling secuted but one earned
run on account of the rather singular
manner the errors Of the visitors were
worked in.
Manager Damn went in the box for
Wheeling, and outside of the four home
runs mentioned, the heavy hitters of the
Mansfield team were unable to do much
with his curves. TIE Wheeling boys al
played good ball, possibly with the excep-
ton of O'Rourke, who seems TO be in no
sha1 re to play.
MATTE zIMNiER's WORK
at second rather verg:d on the phenome-
nal, while at bat be hit the pig skin hard
and often. He made two very neat plays
during the game. In the third, with q
man on first, the next man at bat raped
out hot liner over Zimmer's head, and
the man on fist scooted for
second, but Matte leaped high
into the air, clspped his paws onto that
whiskered pig skin, and pulled it to his
bosom, and in flash it was first, making
a neat double play. In the eighth when
one man Was out and Alcott on third srd
Smith on second, thinner hid the bill
under his arm and Smith got off his base,
thinking Dunn had the ball. Matte
sneaked over to the bag and the first
thing Mr.. Smith knew the bell Was on
him and Barrett WAS calling him in. II
wss cute trick and brought down the
stands.
Morrison was in the box for the visitors,
but after that
DISASTROUS SIXTH INNING
ne gave place to Prof Burchsrd, the funny
man. For the visitors Kelty in left had
lots of work to do and he did it remarks
bly, well. he wasn't slow ct the bat
either. The runs were made as follows:
In the first Wheeling led off with run
made by Williams, who got life on
Smiths muff of Parks throw, advanced on
Dunn's base on balls, and scored on Morri-
sons wild throw TO second. Ia the second
thinner hit safe, Dunn got base on balls,
Spsidel lined out double, Halter followed
with single, which, aided by two bad
throws by Parks and O'Brien gave Wheel
ing four ruDs.
In the bloody sixth Damn got life on
balls and scored On SQeideps beautiful
drive for two bags. Parks muffed
Haller's hit, and he and Speidel scored
ca O'RoulEe's hit past Alcott. Kenny
went to second on the throw home and
scored en- Runners hit. Matte stole
second, went to third on Parks muff of
Shsmus' hit and scored on Williams hit.
Reddy stole second and eco ed On bad
throw TO second to catch him. The last
run was made in tbs seventh, when
Speidel hit to Alcot., and that gentleman
tried to knock boy eff the bleaching
boards. Piggy then scored on Hcbrecht's
short fly 10 Kelly, working that gentleman
nicely.
Mansfield made two in the first on home
runs by Carey and Kelly, one in the fifth
on another homer by Kelly, and one IN the
seventh on ditto By Bird.
Following is the official score:
