PLAYED \ uRILLIiNT GAME.
The First Contest Exciting anu
Close. with II HcRrt-Discase Finish

About 5000 cranks. all hoping that Rich

cheer the Bluebirds on to victory. crowded
Qua to the park in the morning and filled

that ms been played l"re this season.
and. better still. they Stw ttcnm'nd win'
after having suffered seven consecutive
defeats.
This i'm itself was truly refreshing. bu,
To- see them win from team that played
a clean, clever game. such As ROANOKE
Goats got up. was positively eKhiiaraung.
The contest was exciting throughout.
csd brilliant plays abounded In every in

ease order and until the last man was
out i'm the ninth inning there was great
excitement. and half Of the rooters were

at such "a game They couldn't do ii.
In the first place they were fun OF pent-
up FOurth-Of-July eNuhcrance, when was
bound to crop out. and then there was
the excitement incident TO the grand.
glorious CONTEST. which was bound TO
manifest itself. and so all had bowling
time.
EVERYBODY KICKED.
The game proceeded smoothly and with
ont kick or any show OF disorder until
the sixth inning, when Umpire Mitchell,
who is always honest and usually i'm
partial, rendered decision which ope-
rated 90 give Roanoke one run, when they
were clearly not entitled 10 il. and then
a howl went up Jake Wells kicked and
kicked hard, and the crowd hallooed, but
twas all to no use. Mitchell had rem
6ered his decision, and though he must
have been convinced that 1t was wrong
he wouldn't change it, and the contest
proceeded.
From the very first IL was apOplectic in
nature. Kahn. the first man to the bat
in the initial inning, was given his base
on balls Groves lined out hit. and sent
him to third. Bradley went out at first
and Houseman flew out 10 Fultz. Then
kain did some clever base-running. He
started in. and Fultz threw to third, fore
ing Kahn TO return there. Groves start
second TO head him of. but ne beat the
. ball out, and before anybody hardly re-
allied what had happened Kahn had
awaited himself Of the small opportunity
afforded him and scored. In the same
inning Fultz scored for Roanoke His
was an earned run, and was due TO

RICHMOND WON THE OTHER GAME
The Birds Late In starting, Hut
Made an Excellent Finish.

The second game was not so well Played
as the first but it was almost il not
equally as exciting. and the cranks were
well pleased with II, for Richmond won
again, and they were given ample OPP
pOrtunity TO root.
For the first five innings everything was
quiet. and though there were 1000 or more
people on the grounds there was but
little noise and absolutely no demonstra-
ton. for the Roanokes batted out three
runs, assisted by grievous errors, in the
first and second innings and Richmond
did not score. In the sixth however, the
Bluebirds turned themselves loose. and
batted Fry almost out of the box. Hit
followed hit in close succession. and err
rors were made In profuson by the Roa-
nokes. while Fry generously gave away
two bases. The combination Of these cir
cumstances resulted in six runs for the
Bluebirds, and as they began crawling
over the plate the crowd began hollering.
and before the inning was over pandemo-
MUM seemed to have broken loose.
BRADLEY STARTED THE FUN.
Bradley, the first man up lined out
a three-bagger, which narrowly missed
being a home-run, as IL hit on the top
OF right-field fence and bounded back into
the lot Then Houseman came up ana
batted an intield ball. Bradley started
to run In, but was caught between tnird
and home, and almost every player on
the Roanoke team crowded around him.
They chased him to and fro for some
time. and finally, when IT looked as
though he was bound TO be put out
Welsh dropped the ball, and Bradley
shot over the plate like fash. In the
mean time Houseman stole around 10
third base. This was the nrst Richmonu
run OF the game and IL started the crowd
10 yelling. Everybody hollered, and they
were given opportunity to holler sun
louder in very few minutes. Wells went
out at first base. and Kelly reached the
base on an error made by Little. Then
MCGOWAN and Berte were given their
bases. and Kelly being forced around to
third the corners were filled. knorr
welded the ash next, and lined out
nice safe hit, on which Kelly and Nc
Gowan crossed the rubber. and the score
was tied. Then there was excitement.
Hats were thrown In the air. popcrackers
were fired. and a mighty shout was sent
hsayenward. Knorr stole second base,
while Berte occupied third. and when Tan
nehill sacrificed Berte scored and knorr
went 10 third. 1t remained for Groves 10
line out two-bagger to score Knorr,
and then the trick was done.
THE GOATS CRAwLED UP.
Everybody thought the Roanokes would
never pull up TO this lead. but they did.
and that In the same inning. They did
some clever stick-work. and were assisted
by errors. and In very short time had
sent Cavanaugb Welsh and Voix over
the rubber. and the score was again tied.
1t didn't remain so long. however. for
the Bluebirds again got their inning. and
Kelly and Berte were sent over the plate
in quick succession. assisted by Ions hits
made by Knorr and Tannehll.
This was too much for Roanoke. The

CITY COUNCILMAN FATALLY SHOT.
The Shooting Thought tn Have Been
an Accident.


PHILADELPHIA. PA. July 4--Charles
j. Kinsler. a member of the City Council,
was shot shortly after midnight last night
at Miamonsing avenue and Christian
street, and died a few hours later.
The shooting is believed to have been
accidental. There was a celebration Of
the opening OF Independence-Day at the
rooms of social club. and one of the
events was the raising Of a flag over the
clubhouse. AS the flag was raised on the
pole there was a fusillade of revolvers.
and myriads OF fireworks were sent on.
Mr.. Kinsler was standing in front Of
the clubhouse, and while the shooting
was in progress fell to the sidewalk. with
a bullet wound in the head. He was
hastily removed TO the Pennsylvania Hos
pital, where he died early this morning.
1t is not known who fired the fatal shot
but a man named James Leonard was
arrested on suspicion. and was this morn
ing committed to await the action Of the
Coroner.
Knsler was a saloon-keeper. and was
very popular in the locality. having been
elected to the Common Council last April
on the Republican ticket though the ward
is Democratic.
