The game slid along very ordinarily

pecially in respect 10 Grand Rapids

About fifty ladies sat IN the grand stand
and pesulantly tapped their toes on the
wooden seats while the home athletes
msdly struggled and kicked in vain.
Only two hits had been secured, while
the gray suited Evansvllles had run.
Popkay had played a beautiful second.
but as he struck out in a dlsheartened
sort OF way despair filled the grand
stand. katz secured base on an error;
Dowie, Peltx and Rocks made hits net
ting three runs. How they yelled! Then
Evansville went IN and secured four
more, giving lead of two, and all airs
ooi,ed black again. Boland got his
base on balls, OConnor and Popkay
singled, Katz put ou. double, Peltz
struck out, Dowie got his base
on balls and then "Honle Run" Rocks
put the bail out of sight, while the
yells that rent the air would have done
credit to a lot OF Commanche Indians.
Then Breckenridge lost another ball,
making a to;a. of seven earned runs.
Ii was the most exciting game OF the
season. and poor Mars, who had been
slugged for ten earned runs, wore a
sickly look and wished he were far, far
away. Evansville secured two more,
but that was al they could do. The
slckest man of the lot except Mars was
Wentz. He made a lovely two-bagger
in the ninth. Popkay not getting the
ball IN time to head him off. Wentz
led off to steal third and "Pop," who
had had the bail under his arm, ran up
and touched him so that he died.
There was wailing and gnashing of
teeth for even Sommers, AnsOn's colt,
who had been coach ing, hadn't discOv-
cred the trick. 1t was great game IN
