YOU have an eve like an eagle, yes, you
have" Browning did not forget the great
catch that Pinckney made on Monday of his
hot drive and tried him again yesterday;

he could not get out of the way and to
Peters dismay clutched the ball.
Among the carriages that lined the left
field fence WAS one occupied by DR.. Glen
Allen, and the latter will remember for days
70 come his narrow escape from serious
injury. One of the Long Island Railroad
locomotives letting out heavy steam
frightened the horse attached to the car

the horse was doing its best to smash the
carriage to splinters. Although frightened,
the driver escaped any injury.
The Pittsburgs scored the first run of the
game After Miller had been retired in the
opening inning Beckley hit to Collins, which
the latter fumbled and after reaching second
on Browning's sacrifice came all the way
home when Carroll hit safely.

inning and from then on the Pittsburgs
trailed on behind, and as the innings passed
they fell further to the rear. After receiv-

inning Foutz stole second. Burns hit safely

by O'Brien. The latter stole third after
reaching second when Beckley allowed

fingers. There was no trouble whatever for
Pinckney to steal second. Then the Brook
Iyns let out yell when DAILY brought both
in by hitting safely to left field. A double
play ended the inning.

sending him to first base on four straight
balls. Long Dave stole second, both tally

Burns to third. Darby stole second, and on
the throw-down Burns ran home. 0'Brien
did not tarry long at second, owing to
Pinckney connecting with the ball for
base hit.
