If it was not for the high wind that
prevailed during the game the home
would have had a few home runs to their
credit and the number of errors would
have been much less. As it was, it was
very hard to Judge high fly balls correct
ly.
That exhibition of fireworks that the
home team gave in the fifth inning
seemed to demoralize the Indians, as
they only got one man as far as the third
base during the remainder of the game.
Morrow and Norton make the best
battery ever seen on the home grounds,
and with practice and good support they
could give any of the crack amateur
teams of the state hard tussle.
The home team played good uphill
game, as the score stood ten to three
when they went to bat in the fifth inning.
By hard hitting and clever base running
they made seven runs, four Of which were
earned, and thus tied the score. They
then settled down and playeu good ball
and shut the visitors out for the rest of
the game.
Norton tor the locals led at the bat
having four hits out of five times at bat
He also played a perfect fielding game,
accepting all of the fourteen chances Of
fered him.
McBain and Morrow also batted we'll.
having two doubles and single each to
their credit.
Meyer and Baasen led in base-stealing
the latter making four runs, besides field
ing his position in fine form.
Good Thunder and Kitto for the visi-
tors played perfect fielding game, each
accepting ten chances. Kitto also made
four pretty singles out of five times to
bat.
Morrow pitched the last part of the
game and the visitors could not solve his
curves, he and Norton retiring them in
one, two, three order.
Norton, the crack pitcher of the Glib
bon club, has joined the New Ulm team
and will play regularly with the locals in
the future.

hurry, but the red men soon began to

they managed to make two tallies before

to Morrow of Markato and from that
time on the tables turned. The Indian
pitcher began to grow weak, whereas
Morrow kept throwing the sphere harder
and harder. The Indians were unable to
hit him and were again shut out. On

llOTSe NEWS
While only few witnessed the races
at the Driving Park Saturday afternoon,
1t was matter Of regret for those who
stayed away and not tor those who took
the trouble to so to the track, for the
races were such as one often pays half
dollar to see at the State Far and else
where. The time made was excellent
and the work of the horses pretty and at
times exciting.
The first race was a contest between
Gladiola, owned by Anderson, Jack
Blaine, owned by Loheyde, and Little
Joe, owned by Gilmore. Two mile heats
were run and both were won by Little
Joe, the time announced from the Judges
stand being 2:57. The stop watches in
the grand stand, however, indicated sew
eral seconds less, While Jack Blaine won
neither of the heats, he showed that he
had the speed to do so, had his driver
permitted.
The second race was entered by Lilly
A, owned by Anderson, Maggie O, owned
by Schoch, and Minnie r, owned bv
keefe. Three heats were run and all
three were won by Lilly A. The time
for the three heats was 2:36, 2:344 and
2:34! respectively-excellent time in
deed for half mile track.
DIR. Welcome of Sleepy Eye took in
the races and stated that several hundr ed
would be down from that neighborhood
to witness the contests next week.
They have race-course after fashion
in the town of Leavenworth where run
ming races are held every Sunday. Peo-
pie from Sleepy Eye and thereabouts, to
the extent of several hundred, lpatronize
the sport regularly, but as the races oc-
cur on Sunday you never hear anything
about 1t.
Mr.. Rosenau, who had charge of King
Grover at St. Peter during her palmy
days, is now in the city, training Spoer-
hase's mare for the coming races.
The Gent horse will be down from
Sleepy Eye next week to contest for
money and honors with the Yates horse
in the running race.
Mr.. keefe, who is preparing the Lo-
heyde horse for next weeks test of speed,
is one of the best known trainers in the
state. He had charge of Commodore
Nttson's stock for years, and used to
drive against Budd Doble and other
noted horsemen.
Among the novel names given to horses
''Trilby" was last but not least to enter the
list
W. C. France of Lexington, KY, has
had several offers by cable from Germa-
ny for his great horse, Red Wilkes, sire
of 1lS standard PAGERS and trotters.
The right price has not arrived yet.
Angie D., has cut the record for pacing
mares from 2.OS4 to 2.O7.
John R. Gentry and Joe Patchen paced
the first half of the first mile in 59a Sec
onds. This clip is fast enough to dis
tance passenger tlain in this part of the
country. The 2 minute PAGER and trotter
are sure things.
Robert no longer wears the crown
among the pacing celebrities. Joe. Pat
chen and John R. Gentry both lay claim
to it and are going the route with chip
on their shoulder.
Senator L was given a mark of 2:1S
last week at Morris, Ill. Senator L is
