RAINING and the Heavy Bntters
Win n Fine Game.

q.
The Minneapolis base ball club
still has players, and any one desir-
ing to communicate with them be-
tween 4 and p. M daily will find
them at the old stand.
When Hulen and Kuehne were do
ing sand jigs in the April mud, their
most lugubrious combinations never
eXcelled. the marvellous ingenuity of
the Hoosier aggregation yesterday.
A slow grounder to the infield could
slip away like a creased pig at a
policeman's picnic.
Win? Hands down! Why. thew
made eight home runs, but that was
mt enough. Minneapolis earned
! nine, and several more were given
to them by the Hoosiers' serrated-
edged fielding.
And flaming! He couldn't pitch
at all. Oh, no! Nine of the strang-
erS from the state of unsuccessful
presidential candidates struck out,
and in several of these cases it was
clear case of fan, without any
chance to suggest that the umpire
had ophthalmia or strabismus. Tom
my Hogan, right at the top of the
batting list, in the end of the ninth
inning, with two men on bases and
two men Quit Tommy saw three
balls go right over the plate, and he
tried to interfere with some of them,
but he had been so long waiting for
bases on balls at the hands of ordi-
nary pitchers attached to other clubs
in this league that he was immedi-
ately assigned to carry the bats
back to the hotel, as there was no
more use for them. Roat, too, who
has been swiping the ball daily in
the columns of the Hoosier papers,
so that the small boys in Posey coun-
ty are calling their mines Roats,
Shoats and other rhythmical names
-Roat struck out twice, and didn't
hit safely at all.
The feature of yesterdays game
was a race between Perry Werden and
Joe Straus, as to which would put out
the most men. Perry dropped ball
thrown about. fifteen feet in the third
/ inning, and Straus led at the half, with
Werden coming slow. Werden finally
pulled up neck and neck, however and
was little ahead when Joe ran clear

foul Off the wires of the grand stand
| A strike out then put Straus well
ahead, but the next foul fly went the
! other way and Werden took it right
| out from under StrauS' nose, or over
| 1t, strictly speaking. Fanning's strike
| outs, however, brought Straus I'D tc
| the wire with an even break for the
race.
| Werrick put the ball over the fence
| in the first with two men on bases an6
one in, making a total of four for the
inning, one of them credited. to frs
base on balls and another to Canavan's
muff of a thrown ball. Tanning gave
Hogan base, and Caravan hit it ouj
of the lot, 4 to 2. Then three goose
eggs were chalked up. Caravan pu
it over the fence again, 4 to 8.
Tanning struck out, but the ball wa:
