muffed it, letting Mccarthy score. Nc

otherwise, and Whiting was struck out.
Say, but you cranks did not seem to realize
that at this time the gentleman from Bel
fast was pitching good ball. Well, he was,
but he did not get down to business until
after the visitors had taken 10 bases with
q total of "a from him. Goodwin got q
base on balls, Kelley was fairly caught at
first by Bierbaur to Davis, but Mr.. Miller
said "Kel" was safe. Davis made school
boy exhibition of himself at this decision,
and Old Man Dilworth got a hit, filling
the bases. Patterson was presented with
first advancing Goodwin home. Pitcher
Todd repeated the offence with Mccarthy,
sending Kelley home, McManus flied out to
Waldron and Dilworth scored. 1t was get
ting interesting, and to mako it more SO
Flynn got hit with beard on it to right
centre, scoring Patterson and Mccarthy.
O! Oh! Owl! but when Baker got first on
q missed fly by Waldron, everybody got
cranky crazy. Flynn was fairly caught at
third by Yeager to Bierbaur, but Mr..
Miller would not believe it, and then
when Old Man Baker stole second, the
wind backed up, Yeager threw to second
when Lang was not there, Flynn scored,
Baker took third, scored on Goodwin hit
after Pickett had taken base on balls.
Kelley was thrown out at first by Hani-
van and Dllworth went out the same.

that some men rcgained their mental
equilibrium.

base Barton went out Flynn to Nc
Manus, Patterson took dandy from
Haniyan. and made splendid throw to
third to stop Lang. Flynn fairly caught
Davis at first to McAIanus, but Miller

"agin u.s." Waldron was caught the same
way, retiring the side.

Yeagcr to Davis. Mccarthy was thrown
out Lang to Davis, McManus was thrown
