The morning times., 1895-08-22

The Senators and Patsy Tebeau's pen
nanc chascrs' played two games yester-
day ana broke even Oh The day, Washing
Ton winning the first one by anarrow margin
and the leaders taking the second.
Smartng under the sting of Tuesdays
defeat, or rather robbery, which is a far
more fitting and appropriate term to ap-
ply to that fiasco, the Washingtons went
into the first game with 4 sort of do or
die" expression written on the faces of every
mothers son Of them, and in the language
of Chmmie Fadden, they just looked as

look which they wore and made up his
mind to take no chances, sending his
eighteen-karat, gilt-edgcd twirler, Cuppy,
into the box.
This young man, who has had his head
swelcd considerably this season by the
high flown, doubIe-leadcd encomiums Of
the Cleveland press, walked upon the field
with an air that bespoke cgotism. conf
dencc and a little bit of everything else
which goes to make an individual appear
consequential
NO RUNS WERE MADE.
The first inning proved unproductivc Of
runs and 1t is probable that the papers
in the quiet little city by the lake posted
bulletins announcing to the fans of the
town that their pets had started the
game in pennant winning style, and would
once more humble the lowly and much de-
spised Senators to the earth from which
they sprang. And again O'Day was um-
piring, and how could they lose?
But Mr.. Hank O'Day does not carry an
accident insurance policy, and puts just a
little value on his human existence, so
after the exhibition he gave Tuesday and
the narrow escape he had from mob vio-
lencc, he sat up all night reading a book
entitled Rules on the National Game"
and must have gained some baseball knowI-
edge by his efforts, for when Mr.. Cuppy,
whose delivery reminds one of an AleXan-
diia funeral, stepped into the box in the
second inning Mr.. O'Day had his lamps
right on him.
Cuppy did not seem to be able to locate
the plate and as a result three Senators
were made presents of bases on balls, and
Mr.. Cuppy was not in much of gift-giv
ing mood either, and then little Abbey
found one Of his twisters to his liking and
hit the leather for three bases, making
big hole in the atmosphere through which
it sped.
As result the score boy chalked up
two big runs opposite the Washington's
column, and Patsy Tebeau took Cuppy
behind the grand stand
What he whispered into the young mans
ears was not heard by the spectators, but
it is quite certain that it was most select
if Patsy said it; at any rate his star
pitcher wore worried look for the rest of
the contest.
SPIDERS WERE DISAPPOINTED.
Washington kept adding scores through
out the game until they had total of six
big ones at the close, while the Spiders, who
had sought to weavea web around them at
the beginning, found themselves just one
minus that number and heaved sigh of
departed hopes, and the good people of
their native city offered up silent prayer.
In the second game rFarmer" Young
interposedhis mystic arm between the Wash
ingtons and victory. He thought OF Tues
day and the humiliation he suffered by
being driven from the box, so he went to
Patsy yesterday morning, and on bended
knee asked 10 be allowed one more trial
This he got, and how we'll he did his part
the score alone Will tell Could Mr.. Young
nave been suddenly transported to Cleve-
land after the game last night it is safe
10 assume the mayor and delegation of
prominent citizens would have met him on
the outskirts of the city, rendered him the
symbolical key and lots of other things
TO make his reception an auspicious one
But enough said. Cleveland won and Wash
ington lost. Score, to 4.
FIRST AT BAT.
In the opening game the home team were
first at bat, and Were disposed of by the
visitors in one, two. three order, not
man reaching first base
Burkett was the first one up for the
Spiders. He went out on a high fly to
selbach. Mexican then came up. He hit
the ball for three bases. O'Connor went
out on sacrifice hit, hoping to score Nc
keaD, but the latter hung on to his base
