New Twirler of the Brewers Pre-
SCENTS the Millers Il Game.

New Twirler of the Brewers Pre-
sents the MiIlers u Game.
The few fans who journeyed to Mic
ollet park in Minneapolis yesterday
afternoon saw a game of ball such as Is
usually seen only toward the end of
the season, when the pennant is but
a short way off, and every one is in 1t,
not for the filthy lucre, but for little
glory on the side.
If Mr.. Jones, the gentleman who
walked from San Francisco to the
abode of Connie Mack, thereby reliev.
ing himself of all surplus flesh, had not
fallen down in the seventh inning, the
Millers and the Brewers might have
been battling yet, If they, like cats,
could see in the dark. AT the end OF
the sixth inning Mr.. Jones had allowed
the local team but four hits, three of
which were in the first inning, and It
looked very much as though both sides
were doomed to shut-outs until dark
ness came. In the seventh, hoWevr,
the gentlemen from San Francisco went
to pieces. and the end was no longer
in doubt.
The Millers started out in the first
inning something after the manner i'll
which they rubbed it into Kansas City
the first four games with the Blues.
Artie Ball wanted to walk, but Mr.
Jones couldn't see it that way and
the shortstop had to strike. He dropped
one out at the feet of DAILY and was
thrown out at first. Lally was weak
and rolled one to Mr.. Delehanty, who
threw to Stafford. Stafford let it
through him, and Lally was safe on
first. but stayed there only a mement,
getting to second on Speer's passed ball.
Partridge singled, and Lally came homs
at a 10R-second roundo the base gait
Miller drove one into17the left field
for one base, and Partridge went to
second Pickett attempted to sacri-
flee. Miller reached second on Days
failure to hold the ball from Jones,
and Pickett, therefore,. reached first
on a fielder's choice. This left the
bases full, and the fans were happy.
Cassidy, who is hitting pretty regu-
larly, batted out "a single, and Par
fridge and Miller trotted over the plate.
Pickett was caught trying to steal
third, Kuehne struck out and the side
was retired with three runs.
In the first inning Maek's men Went
out in one, two, threea order. In the
second Weaver was given his base,
but was caught trying to purloin the
second bag, when Daily sacrificed, and
the latter reached first2 Mr.. Stafford
also walked, and DAILY went to second
Myers hammered out a single and
brought DAILY home and was caught
himself by Ball, when he attempted
to make his hit two-bagger. Speer
reached first on Balls error and went
to third on Jones single, and Stafford
came home. Delahanty flied out to
Partridge, and the side was retired
with two runs. In the third inning the
Brewers scored one on Kuehne's error,
a single by DAILY and a double by Stat
ford After that they didn't get within
a mile of a run.
From the first to the seventh inning
Jones only allowed the Millers one hit,
and toy balloons doomed up across the
field on the big black board with a
regularity tending to bring a tear to
the eye Of the enthusiastic fam But
Mr.. Jones was once a fan himself and
he felt for the downcast horde in the
grand stand and on the bleachers. He
didn't want to have any one go away
with the idea that he wasn't good
fellow. so when Mr.. sFiggemeier came
to bat in the beginning of the seventh
there was another little Arson testi-
monial, and Figgie didn't have to run
to first Again Mr. Jones played to
the fans in refusing to pick up Artie
Balls sacrifice before the shortstop
had reached first, and that the kind
ness Of the San Francisco gentleman
should not be overlooked the scorers

opposite his name. Lally was anxious
to see just how far Mr.. Jones would go
and tried another sacrifice, and once
more the Brewers star twirler fell
from grace, and Artie Ball was on his
way to second when Lally got to first.
Myers recovered the ball and tried TO
catch Artie at first, but DAILY wouldn't
have it and dropped the ball, and Artie
was safe home. Partridge waited for
a good one, but couldn't do more than
single, and Ball came home and Lally
went to second. Miller sacrificed from
Jones to Stafford, and two Millers
adorned the second and third bases.
Pickett was out for all there was in
it, and to show Mr.. Jones that he was
not the only one hammered out sin
gle, and Lally and Partridge ambled
home Mr.. Jones was mad and struck
out Cassidy, and Kuehne retired the
side by failing to reach first on an easy
one to Jones.
In the eighth the Millers scored one,
their only earned run, on Balls single
and Lally's three-bagger, the only one
of the day and beauty. In the ninth
one more was added to the score by
Millers double, and singles by Miller,
Kuehne and Moran. The score:
