DESIGNS OK HIMSELF.
Among the mora exhilaTatiDg episodes
connected with the game may be mentioned
the individual efforts Of Bill Stevens, who
has taken the place OF the late lamented
Lou HardIe. In four times up Bill scored
four TALES, tore of three hits, one Of which
was four sacks, and made a couple Of spec
taCular catches IN left field. Fears are en-
tertained that Bill does not like the place
and IS piHying fOT his release. Then there
was that man Hutchinson, who smashed
cat four i &c his and scored three TALES
himself, besides digging up some very hot
ground balls in the nelghbornood OF third
base.
j. Frank Horner, who parts his hair the
same as his name, was also largely IN II,
ripping cut q couple Of hits and registering
three times. lie pitched splendid bail, SO
good in fact that the only way IN which
Duke cauld get start was by hitting the
same or getting hit himself, There was no

by Cousin Park, who caught cleYerly and

But the premium play OF the whole col
lection WAS that Of Mr.. MannasaU. he who
crops the heritage and misses ground balls
sometimes, il left field. This young man
made the greatest living catch ever seen
here with the exception Of one perpetrated
last summer BY John J. McCl0skey. The
latteTs was an accident, while Alr. MenDasau
caught the ball on purpose Denny sent a
long line drive TO left which would have
cleared the paddock fence on the fly, but
MannasaU reached the fence first, and, fac

the bali down. II was a fresh white ball

SOME WARMED-OTER BUHGLEs.
These are but few of the brilliant fea-
lures with which Oakland whiled away the
time while the Dukes busted themselves
with q choice selection Of bUngles left over
by Oakland from the previous contest. On
account OF one OF BIS bOIls, which IS located
on the back Of bis neck, Catcher Clark
could not fall IN line with second base. and
made a throw to Buck which was captured
IN center field by Carl McNey. This over
shot was responsible for a couple OF tallies,
but they were hardly noticeable ia the gen.
teel abundance that later fell to the lot OF
the taIlenders. ErI0Ts were OF some as

Poor Nicholas was horribly mutilated, II
hits being made of him in TWO innings for
total Of 10 runs. In the midst Of the fusil-
ade his collaboration, Dir. Harper, made a
quiet and dignlhed sneak to the clubhouse.
It was evident that Mr.. Harper did not care
10 take part in the festivities as lie has a
boil of his own.
There were 90 serious outbreaks until the
third for Oakland. 4 double and a couple
Of singles in the second for the Dukes gave
them the first tally. D0Oley bit for TWO
sacks and scored on Denny's single. The
latter was caught trying TO steal third, and

OF this tally, Oakland's admirers did not
give up, and when IN the next inning Bill
Stevens ripped of his home run, sending }.
Frank Homer and himself across the rub
Der, there was a general return OF conf
dence. In the fourth Oakland was smDtf-
cred in a double play. but in the next q
large influx OF TALES took the sting out Of
the double piay. Wilson, J. Frank HOrner
ana Stevens walked up TO the plate ia turn
and Swatted the ball for one sack each.
While the first two were dancing on their
toes Clark dropped a pitched bali and they
both started for another bag.
CATCHER CLARK MIsHAP.
Clark recovered, but threw over Eb-
rights head. McNey came to The rescue
and sent the ball back to Buck, who swung
to tag Homer, who fipped the ball from
his fingers and il took another trip 10 the
field. Cousin Park scored and J. Frank

hit for two bags. Terrible Tom flew to

with the throw. He collided with Clark,
knocking that suffering young nan down
on his ether boil. The ball got lost in the
shuttle, and both Stevens and Hutchinson
scored, much to the delight of the assembled
multitude.
Again was Oakland stopped by double
play IN the sixth, aud in the same innings
the Dukes scored up another tally Dooley
and Denny had both retired to the bench on
