Nearly one thousand interested per-
sons Witnessed the deciding game be-
tween the Stars and First Regiments
Saturday afternoon, and it required six
stalwart policemen to keep 700 of the
excited individuals from cracking their
voices in shouting for the regiment
team. L he absence of hoodlumism and
consequent vulgar remarks was notice
able, and the game made more enjoy
able in consequence.
Beyond d slight disagreement on the
question of privilege taken by Captain
baker 20 jolt Pitcher Hart as The lormer
crossed the home piate, the game was
delightfully."- harmonious and the regi-
ment lost the game and the boys their
coin with good grace. There were
couple OF accidents, which delayed the
game in all about twenty minu,es; one
% Cunha, which though no. of seri-
Gus nature, contributed toward the re-
suit of the contest. Willis OF the Stars
colIided with Cummings, which for
a time looked as ii the S.ars would have
20 put a substitute in his place, but he
pulled himself together and by excel
lenC batting helped materially to pile
up the runs for his club. Cunha's mis-
hap was in having the flesh near his
numb nail knocked off, SO that he
could not throw to second, and in try
ing to put a man out he was obliged to
throw to the pitcher and depend on him
% get the bali TO second before the run
ner-an act in which the runner was
generally successful.
Up to the end of the sixth inning the
game was remarkably good, but George
Woods arm gave out then and Sinner
son took his place. I his was the sign
ing of the warrant which gave the game
and the championship TO The Stars. The
DalI was numerically batted all over
the field, and the batter who put the
bail to center field, where Geo. Woods
played, was safe for two or three bases.
Even in the box George was off his
iced; his in or out curves were not any
more of a success than his up and
down shoots. If he had played as well
as he did in his first game with the
legiment, the greybacks would be cele-
Drating a Victory instead of suffering
under the lash of defeat.
