IsRELL WILL PITCH.

Seawell held that the cause of action was one
which could not be maintained in court or
justice. and ordered the case dismissed.
IsBELL WILL PITCH.
North Branch Man to Go Against the
Tigers.
A number of local fans having expressed a
wish to Isbell given another trial IN the
box before the Saints leave on the trip man
ager Comiskey, in spite of the fact that the
three more experienced pitchers are all oolng
fine work. has determined to put, the North
Branch boy against the Tigers today. Hahn
or Treadwell, probably the former, Will De
in the box for the visitors.
President johnson, Of the Western league
arrived yesterday from Chicago and witnessed
the game at Lexington park from the grand
stand. Mr.. johnson was enthusiastic IN mas
praises of the new park, and Congratulated
Manager Comskey warmly ON the acquisition
of such a splendid field. He confirmed the
report that Umpire Lally had been released
for his failure to report at Minneapolis when
ordered and said that he had only been SUD-
bing here for few days. Mr.. Johnson will
| witness a game in Minneapolis before return
ing tomorrow.
Deadly made a beautiful catch of Phyle's
drive in the third which looked like three
base hit better when it started, but the
really sensational play OF the entire game
was Shugart's famous catch on DUNCAN in
the seventh.
Judging from Thomas work since he has
been here. he will prove one of the best
batting pitchers in the league.
Nyce's muff was inexpensive.
Shugart's terrific batting streak of yester-
day lifts him SO close to the 300 mark that he
is over .299.
In general field play Shugart Hollingsworth
and Allen carried off the honors
Bud Lally's removal should cause no spasm
of delight here. His work, especially in the
last few games, has been very creditable,
and the bleachers had taken quite a fancy
to him.
Steinfeldt invariably comes to bat with a
cheek full of black strap, some other va
riety of face padding. Then, instead Of
cussing at the umpire bad strike, he
chews vigorously on the dssolying plug and
saves a lot of money.
1t was the first day Allen has really shown
up in the game. He got into it well yester
day, however.
Tom Parrott came up four times with men
| on bases, and three Of those times he hit the
ball as Mongol might a pipe
Well! well! WE'LL Peevish Artie Ball de-
posed and old Bill Kuehne at the head of
the Millers' batting list. Patient merit is
at last getting what it has long deserved.
The way the Inter Ocean looks at Rusie
and Denzer:
But if Rusie was able to hold the Cots
down to six hits. Denzer, the conner the
youth whom many call young Rusie. held the
nard-h.ting Giants down to four hits in eight
innings. And what was still better for his
record, one OF the hits was allowed because
OF wild rank misjudgment of fly by
Thornton. who was probably confused by the
sun, which gave Holmes three-bagger and
New York their first run on the next pay.
hxy
Scrappy joyce into the right field bleachers.
F.! still another came after the home team was
gwen an easy chance to retire the side, so
the young mans twirling was a remarkable
exnloltion. and but two hits should have
been made off him. Rusie is better known
however, however, and is with a fast team, and be-
| ssdes ne won. so he gets shade the more
attention. 1t is the way of the world.
Girls, Girls, do not forget Lexington park today.
Ihere are 5000 free seats there for you and
the management wants you to fill every one
| OF them: This is the last ladies' day in st.
| Paul until July 2.
Burnett was on. the gate yesterday. He
| said his leg, injured in sliding to the plate
| Wednesday. Was quite stiff and that he
might have to be out of the game for a
! week OF more.
1t was a great day for faithful little shu-
| CART He accepted eight chances in the field,
| made two singles, double, a triple and a
! home run. =.
| And. while we are talking, what was the
| matter with the second base play of Hol-
| lingsworth? He accepted all Of nine chances
| again, and not an error has been chalked up
against him for the season.
| Spies got his only put-out for the day
| when Steinfeldt was called out on strikes in
| the fifth.
| Phyle handled himself like major general
l hIJt
| Two Of st. Paul's four errors were muffs
| of fly balls in the outfeld Don't forget,
| however, that some day st. Paul is going to
/ play an errorless game.
| Nyce's error was on the easiest ball he had,
pop-up. He accepted his other chances
neatly. and threw we'll to first.
! The greatest receiver of the season is
/ Jack Glasscock, who nipped fourteen of the
Tigers yesterday and hollered for more.
| Parrotts hitting and fielding were both
features, and it is becoming noticeable as
| the weather warns up that his throwing arm
| is gaining strength.
| Outside of the eat bat' column, Steinfeidt
has a of ciphers. He had nothing to do
and did 1t statuesquely.
| Egan and the wind had great tussle at
! right field, and the wind won with several
| laps to spare.
| 1t only takes about fourteen to sixteen sec
onds for runner to make the circuit of the
| bases SO when a ball is sent down through
! the field beyond the felders at lively pace
| it takes quick work to get it back before
| the circuit is made
