Cincinnati, O, July 1.-THE torrid sun,
which blazed downupont the ban park day,
sizzling the topsof 'SquireSchwab's Worlds
Fair grass, must have had a debilitating
effect upon Buck Ewing's braves.
They played one OF those sleepy, sloppy
games that mark their work at times,
and every man on the team seemed to have
about as much life as the ossified man
On the contrary, The Senators put up a
game that viii win in nine cases out of ten,
and showed they We're sUill in the hunt
Out in CenterrieId when the Reds We're at
bat stood a muscular specimen Of ball play
ers. He was not handsome, nor has he ever
beenacknowledged to be a sam ThompsonaU
the bat
Itwas Abbey. Onmore than one occasion
that boy killed some magnificent chances
to win the game He seemed to be able to
fly after balls knocked into his territory
and no matter whether he was standing
on his head, turning somersaults, OF climb
ing fences, he managed to get his hands
on to every two-bagger that came his
way
Three times did he, by phenomenal field
ing, XIII as many two-bag hiCs, and he was
given as much applause for his good work as
any man on the local team.
SPHYNX IN THE BOX
Varney Anderson, usually a rare and de-
licjoUs bit of tapioca for the Reds, pitched
magnificent ball, and had his foes at his
mercy. Besides proving a sphynx in the
box, be was formidable at the bat, and
made four of the twelve hits accorded the
visitors. This makes him having a hit
at each time to bat.
Only in the eighth inning were the Reds
able to get more than one hit off Anderson.
In that inning singles by Hoy and Ewing
and Miller's three-bageer petted two runs.
The only feature of the game was the in
competent and terrible manner in which
Calvin Umpired. He was assisted by
Hank O'Day, the old pitcher, and the con.
trast between the work of the two men was
wonderful Galvin's bad decisions af-
fected both alike, and his judgment on
balls and strikes was something awful
TO witness
In fact, even the dog mascot, Trilby,
took cogniZance of his work, and once
playfully nipped his ankles, as i { knowing
he ought TO do better or get out of the
game. O'Day's work was the best seen
here since Emslie's departure. He has
