want to play. He gathered in two flies

one of them being a very fine catch.
Long George Mallory will take his turn

What magnificent game frost is put
ting up behind the bat these days. And
the way he throws to second is a caution
to .h4ss ,stealers.

A big excursion is expected from Dali

and great hitter.
Another month of the game and the

TWO TO TWO.
The Panthers and Tigers Play a Fine
Eleven Inning Draw Game.
Houston Withdraws from the League and
Claims the Pennant-Ready to Play
Special Games with Galveston.

A large weekday crowd assembled at
the Spring Palace park yesterday to see
the opening game of the final struggle
between Fort Worth and Dallas.
And great game it was.
Eleven innings. two runs and the game
called on account of darkness.
If there was anybody present who
went there imbued with the idea that
Fort Worth intended TO throw games to
Dallas, his mind was certainly disabused,
for more thoroughly contested game
has not been played on the home grounds
this season.
schell pitched magnificent game,
and his support was almost per-
corded against the home team.
had fine control of the ball, only one
man being sent to first on balls. But,
as usual, that one made run.
Crothers pitched good game, far as
hitting was concerned, but was some
what cratic, giving seven men bases on
balls. He, too, was well supported.
The most brilliant work of the day was
done by Welsh of Fort Worth Two
stops he made cut off at first men who
appeared to have safe hits. He also led
at the bat, having a single and
double to his credit. MotZ
made a brilliant catch of a line
fly for which he had to jump, and Fo-
garry, by good throw from right, cut
off Cedar at second, when that sprightly
young man tried to stretch single into
a double
The first run was made in the second
inning. Fogarty got life on four balls,
executed q neat steal of second, went to
third on an error of Bellman, and scored
on a wild pitch. Welsh and Motz were
thrown out at first by Crothers, Pike,
frost, and Schen got bases on
balls. With the bases full Nc
Vey nit to Cedar and persisted
at first. For the Tigers Welch got
a life on balls. Then Firle hit slow
grounder to Pike, which he failed to
handle in time, giving Welch second
and Firle first. Two sacrifices brought
them both in. Fort Worth, l; Dallas,
2.
Crogan, the first man up in the third,
got life on four bad balls. Trying TO
steal second he was nipped by Bellman
and Tub WEIGH. Hill hit for two bases.
A sacrifice by Fogarty and an error by
FIrle allowed him to score. Welsh
then hit for two bags, but Motz raised a
foul fly to Firle and he was left. Bell
man, Baden and Jordan went out in
order. Score tied, Fort Worth, 2; Dali
las, 2.
In the tenth inning it looked as though
Fort Worth would surely score. Gro
gan, the first man up, was sent to first
on balls. Hill flied out to Rodemaker.
Crogan stole second, and Fogarty s sacri-
fee sent him to third. Welsh died out to
Jourdan.
In the seventh Firle, first man up, hit
safe and stole second and third, but
Crothers, Fabian and Cedar went out,
and he was left
In the game to-day Mallory will be in
the box for the Panthers and either
Daniels or Maloney for the Tigers.

Another Railroad.

Brady is almost sure to get the San
Antonio and Arkansas Pass railroad. A
committee of men from Taylor and Run
nels counties have just recently returned
home from San Antonio where they made
proposition to President Lott of the
San Antonio and Arkansas Pass railroad ;,
to the effect that if the company would
construct and operate the road through
said counties with depots at the county
seats, that said counties will grant right
of-way, depot grounds, and grade the
road through the counties. After the
conference, D. P. Gay, a member of
the committee, and who is by no means
visionary man, is reported as having
said that there was hardly doubt but
that the proposition would be accepted
Brady is right on this route, and the
roUghness of the county both to the east
and to the west of US renders it imprac-
ticable to miss Brady more than three
miles. 1t will be remembered that Ma
son has agreed to pay $40 200 to the road
when it Is completed to that place. Brady
has for long time been parasite, but
her manifest destiny for greatness is be-
ing seen by many - Brady Sentinel.
