The morning times., 1896-06-03

Nine Splders crawIeu over the anatomies
OF the Senators yesterday and produced
that "cbicken-flesh'' feeling.
But of the uine only two did much biting.
Reference is had TO Spider Cupid" Childs
aud Spider Wilson. But what they did
was Il plenty.
If there ever was Il base hit roDber,
Childs is he. And lie does his work right
out in the open, in the broad daylight
before thousands of people and then gets
off with his booty. The ladies said
''Cupid'' was 'audacious;' the sun gods
called him thief
But for Cupid the Senators might
have been in seventh place this morning &
and with IL percentage Of 300 to their
credit. Such was the calculation before
the game, but the roly-poly boy, VINO
lives in Baltimore when he is not play
mg ball, upset the whole business.
The fact that his home is i'll the big
Maryland village Is enough TO Jonah The
Senators on all occasions. III is ever the
case. Just about the time the Senators
get 10 going good and easy up jumps the
Baltimore hoodoo i'll some sort OF shape
and down the toboggan they slide.
WILSON PITCHED WELL.
Cupid's phenomenal catch OF Rogers
fly TO short outfield in the sixth and another
from Jimmy's bat in the ninth destroyed
whatever chances the Senators had 10 wln
the, game.
Another potent factor in the defeat of the
statesmen was the pitching or buckeye
sapling by the name OF Wilson. He is not
d very stylish looking youngSter, nor does
he attempt any poses or monkey shines in
the box. But he gets there just the same.
At least he did yesterday With both feet
though Selbach came near separating him
from one of his number mines in the third
inning by banging his right shin with hot
liner.
The good pitching of Wilson, the great
fielding OF Childs, and punching OF hits
inning
the Spiders.
For rthe Senator's German pitched well. and
had the club been able to bat safely it
would have been toss up for the victory.
Joyce's men hit the bal! hard and often, but
could not drive il away from easy reach of
the opposition fielders.
And when they would land safely on the
sphere it was at inOpportune times. Selbach
led with the stick, getting two pretty
singles. German made home run, and
Cartwright and Mcclure u Uwo- Da gger each.
sELBACH'S DAY.
selbach had a successful day in left
making six put-outs, several of them being
difficult chances and only captured after
hard running. The ambassador in knee
breeches'' also stole a couple of bases,
sneaking second and third, in quick sue
cession in the sixth. Yet he did not
score a run. But that was not at all
his fault.
1t was ladies day and the largest crowd
OF falr fans of the season was present
A IlVely concert was furnished by the
band previous to the call of game The
total attendance was $500.
The Senators were the first to score
IL was In the second inning with two out
that DeMontreville drew a base on balls
and came home ahead OF German when
Lester Knocked the ball over the right-fleId
fence. 1'> '>'
They were successively banked from the
second to the ninth by the good pitching
or Wilson and the clean fielding of his
packers In the ninth they made q raliv
and rekindled hope in the hearts of the fans
put it went for naught as only two runs
could be registered
Cartwright, the first man up, banged
out a clean two-bagger. and Scored on
McGuire's double. O'Connor stood bacE
ana Mcclure was allowed to walk from
second to third and then home. Childs
made a great catch of Rogers seeminnIv
safe hit. but DeMoutreviIle got life NJ

wilson IN striking out German, Brown fonl
lhed 10 y 'Connor, and the jig was up.
The Spiders made their start in the
second. O'ConnOr walked to bag No
but was forced by Blake, the latter going
