the locals, but that timely hit was absent,
although the probability of its coming kept
the 1900 spectators moving uneasily in
their seats.
The Marquis Was An Right.
Marquis Markabus Baldwin returned
from British dominions. where he had been
invoking the aid of the fates, and he stepped
into the box yesterday to pitch looking the
pictures of vigor and confidence. Up to
Yesterday the Marquis had been the most
unlucky pitcher in the business, and it was
hoped that his Canadian tour would have
some talismanic effect on his fortune
Whether or not the good influences had
been courted and won by him, he did we'll
Yesterday He pitched a fine game, al
though at one stage it looked as if he was
going to be the same unlucky Baldwin. That
was In the proverbial eighth inning. The
score was to in favor of the home team
With one man out, Dowd made a single
and How made another. Twitchell knocked
a fy, which Donovan caught Big Milli-
gan followed and sent grounder to Shu-
CART, who tried to throw the runner out at
second and was too late. The bases were
now full, and good single meant tieing
the score. Everybody said: "1ts just
Baldwin's luck" But everybody was dis
appointed, as Berger, who was the next
batter. only knocked the ball between the
plate and the pitchers box, and Baldwin
threw Dowd out at the plate. The support
given Baldwin was first class all round.
Miller Had an Injured Leg.
Miller played under difficulties on ac-
count of an injured leg. and he went to
right field in the eighth inning and retired
from the game at the end of the inning.
Manatee played right in the ninth, and re-
tired one man.
Killen pitched admirably, and, having
had his attention called to the rules, he did
not overstep the lines of his position when
delivering the ball, except on one occasion.
Somehow or other Frank is not tavorite
here, and the cranks and fans gave strong
manifestations of that fact But he can
pitch ball. and he did it with vengeance
yesterday. Timely hitting only defeated
his team. He was presented with splen-
did diamond when he went to bat, but he
failed to make hit in response.
w. c. Wilson, ex-umpire of the Southern
League, umpired the game and really did
very well. He is an active and decisive
Young man and veteran In the business
could not improved very much on his work.
There were few little kicks at decisions,
of course, but these little kicks characterize
almost every game that is played. At any
rate the umpiring did not cause the defeat
of the Senators yesterday.
Started to Score the Runs.
The third inning was reached before run
was made and then the visitors got the first
tally. They were first at bat and the run
was made on really good ball playing Af-
ter two men were out Radford got his base
on balls and stole second. Then the Little,
Old Man" pilfered third and was cheered
for his pluck. Dowd made scratch single
and Radford scored.
In the second half the home players went
the visitors one better. After Bierbauer
was out Connie Mack got fair whack at
the ball and banged it down the right line
for three bags. Baldwin struck out and
things looked very squally indeed. Miller
was next up and thinking there wss an easy
mark in left handed batter like Donovan,
Killeu gave Miller his base on balls amid
the ieers and hootings of the crowd. But
Patsy Donovan fooled MI. ,Killen by knock
ing the ball into right field for single,
Mack scoring and Miller going to third.
Then Berger fumbled Farrell's grounder
and Miller scored.
In the sixth inning, after Farrell had
struck out, Kelly made good single and
got to third on BeckleY's single to right
field. Shugart made a splendid sacrifice hit
to first base and Kelly got home with the
last run in the game. The score:
