home run drive of our man Jimmy
Burns, the hard hitting and con-
scientious middle fielder who wasn't
good enough for the Millers because
he had manhood and independence
enough to pick his own associates.
And those people who were glad TO
see him so, and they were few, are
angry today that he fell into the
clutches of such a reliable manager
as Old Comanche Comiskey. Those
who regretted to see him go are sor-
rier now than ever before, and
curses loud and deep have been
heaped upon the head of the person
who at present manages the Min
neapolis team. For Jim won the
game. Yes, the score was tied in the
eleventh inning, and st. Paul came
nm to take her turn at bat. Burns
was the first man up. He selected a
happy little inshoot, caught it on the
end of his bat and whirled it out of
sight over the fence It was the
winning run, and Burns, when he
had finished the rounds, never
stopped, but kept right on out the
gate and took the car for home. He
was the happiest man in seven
states. Ana the st. Paul crowd in
the grand stand simply went into
spasms of delight, and had he been
there Burns would have been borne
TO the car on their shoulders.
The game was fought with grim
determination from the start to the
hnish,and was fullof pretty features.
not the brightest of them being the
kicks hurled at Cantillion by the
DULLES of the Mill City team. But in
plucky Cantillion they had a man

and invariably the kicking came to
an abrupt termination. With two
men on bases in the seventh inning.

of Minneapolis, George shot out a
nome run and tied the score. and
after that there was more trouble
1han can be told in a day. Not a
single run was made after that IN

then that Jimmie Burns walked IN

crowd, and then, shutting his teeth.

out OF sight. 1t was one of the long
est and hardest drives ever seen on
the Mill City grounds, and had Burns

But the people of the SANITY Civ
are not slow to appreciate his good
work With that one home run he
patted the Apostles Back into second
place, where they are likely to stav
until they shove the Hoosiers off the
pinnacle.
Irwin was really the feature of
our game in the field, and was more
IMAM once applauded for some brill
oant work. After several of these he
made the star one of the day. In the
seventh inning Kuehne hit a, terrific
one right past the pitcher. and if

e sailing to first for one of the
Sharpest and prettiest double plavs
ever seen On the grounds. The 81

runs-a total of nine. Pickett's failura
