Jecrees of fates were altogether too numer-
Gus and to-day they will attempt TO WIN back
some OF the laurels which have been so ruth

The Old DOmnions are not the same people
tv any manner of means as the people who
niaved the Winsl0ns here last week. HE
Riebmouds. managed by Squire DOnati, were
hair oDponents then. but the Colts are moth

pitching that was painfully lacking. Perhaps
