Heavy overcoatS and light batting
were the two prominent features of the
game at Athletic park yesterday after
noon. One thousand people sat in the
stands, and couple of thousand more
viewed the contest from the high bridge
and the bluffs. 1t was not bad sort Of
game, but the crowd refused to enthuSe
until DAILY pounded the pigskin to
South st. Paul in the sixth inning.
From that point the interest increased
until the locals secured the lead in the
eighth, and clinched the victory in the
ninth. The players hands were so cold
that they had difficulty in keeping their
fingers from becoming benumbed. but
some of the fielding was really of a
phenomenal character. The work of
Hengle, O'Day, Burks, Phillips and
Ryn would have been roundly applauded
OH a warmer day. Ryn is really a re-
markable first baseman. He goes after
everything that comes his way with
vim, and saves many wild throw by
his alertnesS and great reach. Daily
easily led with the bat, making two
singles and home run. The pitching
of Hardness and Viau was very effect

married by very ragged second inning,
in which five SaWdust City men Sc

Ors in the last three innings, was evil
IDENTIFY nervous and inexperienced, but
Kicker, his catcher, is plainly clever
backstop. The game opened with
Halves at bat and Hardness i'll the box.
Capt. Billy sept the ball spinning to

"Annie Rooney" gently. 1t was JIM

and the bail the same number OF times,
and ran to first while Hengle was dis

to third; and, while an attempt was
being made to catch Phillips, made a
heroic, successful dash for the plate.
Farmer gave Iengle an easy one, and
the side was out. SMeekin took the box
at this point, anL Carroll emerged from
Il shadow with section of wagon
tongue. The or Wd arose and passed a
set of resolutions Endorsing the little
right-felder and the contest proceeded.
The mascot lined the leather along
the left foul line, and took
base. Minnehan couldn't find
the sphere, however, and Car
roll failed to reach second in time.
Hudson was hit. but Ryn failed to adj
vance him. In the next inning Burks,
Cantilon and GlasScock went out in
order: but the Flour City nine all took
chance, and three of them scored.
Miller was first at bat, and Ryn ended
the inning. Meekin could not get the
ball over the plate, and the men simply
waited and swung around home one at
time. The only safe hit was that of
Minnehan. The game ran along from
this iuncture to the sixth inning with
out incident or tallies, when Daily

peculiar inning. BrOughton opened
it with a base Oh balls, Cantillon made
double and GlaSScock a single, and
yet no score was made. The veteran
catcher apparently got excited, and
glued himself TO third until the clouds
should roll by. St. Paul took the
lead in the eighth. After two
men had failed to reach the base they
longed for Phillips waited for four bad
balls with success, went to third on
CarrolPs muff of BrOughton'S fly, and
tailed on Burks' safe drive to left,
BroughtoE coming in on Cantillon'S hit
to right. The next inning also resulted
in two runs. Abbey hit one to Bush too
fast to field, was advanced to third OH
Days pretty drive to right, and both
scored on BroughtOns double to left.
Minneapolis was unable to bat Wan,
VINO took the box in the seventh, the
only hit being single by Carroll. The
schedule of the Twin City series has
been changed. The teams will play in
Minneapolis to-day and in st. Paul to-
morrow. This is done to permit the
Apostles to reach DeS Moines in time
for the opening championship game on
Thursday. The score follows:
