Hillary Swain is by no means a quitter.
He has nerve enough to go TO geological
park when all the animals are loose. Yes
terday he again faced the Indians from
the town of Hanna, and they fell before
him like pack of wolves under fire.
He had q regular bargain counter assort-
ment of balls, and until the seventh inning
he was like swinging pipe in three
shots. for-5-cents shooting gallery.
The visitors made but four hits until that
time. but In the one-time memorable turn
at the bat he W as touched safely five times.
They came fast and dbeinginterspersed with
a base on balls TO a weak hitter, but three
runs were scored.
Tie eighth hooked dangerous. Two
bases were occupied 10y reason of pair
of singles. Hillary then covered first with
a wonderful stride and crowned himself
with glory by striking out Cy Young. For
this work he received a great ovation, and
he was as proud as lad with his first
pair of red-top boots
But the tall Caldw allader lad was not the
only diamond on the field. The youngster
from The State Of Bryan also distinguished
iims-If, and the audience gave him as
much applause to the rooter as did the vast
aSseubIage which greeted William Jen
nngs Bryan on another baseball field in
Washington a little over a year ago.
Silent Jake Gettinan swung his bat
with regularity against Cy Young's mys-
terious balls, in a manner that amazed
the Indian twirler. He wound up his stick
work by sending the sphere into the
bieachers, five feet over the barbed wire,
which recently caused Jack O'CpDnor to
be put out OF a game with a lacerated
finger.
stokcr Leahy fielded in a way that
pleased the spectators, and he helped ma
tcrially in scoring the nine runs made by
tie home team by two singles. Tom Brown
swung around center and extended his ter
ritory considerable distance in order
TO capture flies soaring to the outer garden
He made q twO-bagger by running out a
high fly, which fell safe betw cen three men.
Scibach was quite frisky on the bases,
and while McAllister rolled the ball t.

balls in faultlcss style, and displa yed good
sense on one occasion In holding the ball,
Reilly also showed rare Judgment on
Bursett's drive, which he took in fine
style He made bluff to throw tn

second, started for third, but he eventually
ran into the arms OF swain, after doing
turn between Reilly and De Montreville
