game very uninteresting one to the 800 or
1000 people who were there to see it. There
were many sa features about the contest
as far as the local men we're concerned.
They could not hit ''Old Hutch" very hard,
and the Colts just played their best They
out.classed the locals in every sense.
The Victory Was Earned.
On the other hand Ehret was somewh at
of mark for Arson's youngsters, and the
fielding of the locals was wretched The
errors, and there were eight of them, did
some damage, but they did not entirely lose
the game. OF the nine runs Tailed by the
visitors five were earned, and errors had
nothing to do with them. The fact is Ehret
was far from being at his best, and when
the Colts did hit the ball they invariably
sent it humming out OF sight almost. Two
of their cracks were homerS and one atriple
That is hard hitting and no mistake.
Bobby Cargo was put in to play shor. in
the Sc cond inning, Farrell being compelled
to retire on account of his injured leg.
Miller went to third base. Cargo started
off well, but he soon got all tangled
up and made some very bad errors He
wouldn't be fair to judge him by yester-
DAYS work. He is an active little fellow
and likely enough can do better than he
did. But he did not play anything like
League ball Yesterday. Still the best field
ing in the world would not have saved the
game, because the Colts banged the ball too
much. All round it was an unfortunate
day for the home players, as Van Haltren
and Donovan muifed flies that 10 times out
of 20 they would have held all right.
Terry Umpired Very Wen.
Umpire Snyder did not put in an appear
ance and Terry umpired the game. lie did
first rate, and there was no kicking about
env of his decisions.
The locals went first to the bat and did
nothing. In the second half the Colts be-
gan their run-getting and the home players
their error-making. Ryan reached first on
a tumble by Farrell, and then Mr.. Parrot
sized matters up for corking home run.
He whacked the ball right to the left center
fence, scoring two runs, of course. A
splendid double play by Miller and Beck
lev and a strike-out ended the inning.
In the third inning Cargo began his mis-
takes and made wild throw of grounder
by Kittridge that allowed the latter to reach
second. Ryan's infield hit scored the run,
and another double play, good one, by
Bierbauer and Beckley, and a fly ended
the inning.
The home club scored an earned run in
the fifth. After Smith was out Mack got
the ball down the right foul line for three
bags and scored on Bierbauer's sacrifice.
Kept Piling Up the Runs.
Then the Colts piled some more up in
their half "Hutch" started off with
three-bagger to right center, and scored on
Kittridge's little single. Jimmy Ryan
got his eye on the ball and thumped it OUT
to left center for home run, making three
earned runs for their inning.
In the sixth, after Donovan was out,
Cargo made a single to middle and was
forced out by Van Haltren. Miller's triple
scored Van.
The seventh inning came and the BOYS
from Chicago piled up three more Ryan
started off the fun with a single. Parrott
and Dahlen each made one, and q tumble
by Cargo let Anson reach first and RYAN
and Parrot scored A sacrifice by DUNCAN
scored Dahlen.
In the eighth inning Donovan made sin.
gle and reached third on a sacrifice by
Cargo. Miller's sacrifice scored the run.
In the ninth Smith made q single, got sec
ond on sacrifice by Mack and scored on a
single by Ehret. Donovan forced Ehret
out at second and the jig was up. The
score:
