the umpire saw how wide Foreman
was pitching The centerfeld Celt
was promoted to first base for his good
eye. O'Rourke's hit sent him to third,
and he scored on Georges hard one
which rolled badly for Foreman. That

Two bases on balls were followed by
ORourke's failure to encompass the
necessities of an emergency when Ka-

When Tim finally did get it he threw

But he held the ball. Mullane gave
two more bases in the Indianapolis
half, but Hollingsworth ran we'll back
and made a fine catch of Kahoe's fly,
the third out Of the inning.
Mcbride drove the ball into deep
right field near the foul line for three
bases, and scored when Eustace drop

apolis pitchers trip under the wire.
He has sand that has never been
spilled. Not content with being knocked
out Of the box in three innings Friday,
he went in against the Saints again
yesterday, saw seven runs chalked up
against him in the first inning, and
then watched it out, not from the
bench, but from the pitchers box.
The tumuli of the Little Missouri are
pretty gritty, but when you come to
Foreman, he's just as much butte.
Tony Mullane pitched for the locals.
But seven hits were made off him, and
had it not been for his occasional fits
of wildness, it would have been an
event to be remembered for the Hoo-
siers to get on first base. AS it was.
few of the regions beyond first base

were hidden from them by a bank of
dense fog that lent a thrilling realism
to the picture of a storm on Lake Su-
perior, one of J. J. Hills latest art ac-
quisitions which occupies a conspicu-
Gus place on the fence.
Hollingsworth, who walks as though
he was riding a side saddle, a pro-
vincialism due to living on the side
hill in Dubuque, played a beautiful
game at second, accepting eleven
chances at second without an error,
and it looks as though Dubuque would
have one player on the ST. Paul team
nearly every day, even if Comiskey
is too rotund to play. Then, too, he
shared the batting honors with Nc
Bride, who for the last five games has
been playing the stick to win up and
down the line. Mcbride has made

looked as though there would not be a

But suddenly 1t cleared up and the

and telephoning to the newspaper Of
fees that the game would be played.
At it was as bright as a tin dipper.
But the grounds were not very dry.
Twenty minutes were spent by a few
hundred people waiting to see the
water soak in or run off, and finally
play was begun. Then it began to get
dark again. Dark in the sky and dark
for the Indianapolis rooters, who were
assembled in a roller skating rink
watching lot of automatons play ball
by telegraph. The st. Paul folk saw
the real automatons play the game.
When Foreman stepped into the box
at the start the hopes of the locals rose.
1t had been expected that Goar or
Phillips would be played, either more
doughty opponent. Mcbride, after some
delay, walked on four balls, while Fore
man insisted the fourth ball should
have been the third strike. Lally, how
ever, said it was ball, and Manassau
was only passing on base decisions.
O'Rourke hunted to Foreman, who
threw badly to second, and both were
safe. George hunted, and all three

ANSON AT FIRST BASE.
Surely Minneapolis Fans VIII Now
Go Crazy.
Is the Chicago Chronicle Kidding It

says:
Whisper it gently, fan to fan; handle ten
derby the wounds of the present; clasp close
the memories of the past. There are those
who say that Walter Wilmot, of Minneapolis,
went yesterday afternoon to James Hart and
sounded him as to the difficulties that would
have to be met to secure the release Of
Adrian Constantine Arson, team manager
and captain.
True, the same rumor says that President
Hart refused to grow enthusiastic over the
proposition, but then, every one knows the
advertising value Of Arson and the natural
difficulty there would be in coming to a
What a bonanza Arson would be to the
Minneapolis box Office. He might stand be-
hind the plate and let fifteen men steal to
second on his throw; he might chase fouls
stretched hands; he might lumber at ease
down to certain put-outs at first base, but
he would still be Arson.
The Arson kind of playing ball is the kind
that the Western league sees every day.
Arson himself the fans of the far North
west have never seen, and have always
wished to see. The season through there
would be daily Ansonian excursions from
Red Wing, from LIE Seuer, from Rochester
and from Owatonna. Base ball there would
be continual round Of diamond bliss and
bleacher joy.
But the beautiful thought Of the possibly
pending deal Is foreign to all this. 1t is the
noble and magnanimous spirit which moves
Wilmot to open his arms and bid papa well
come to his affections. 1t is only three years
gone since Walter wrestled with the left
sun field, which Is now the terror of another
and larger Walter The base ball world
remembers yet the grievances which caused
the indignant Walter to demand instant re-
lease. The terrible left field bleachers
roasted Wilmot from the Chicago team and
from the league. When he quit he told the
public frankly that he did so because he
could no longer stand the way In which the
folks on the bleachers talked to him.
Papa Is said to have himself on occasions
sympathized with the feelings and the ex-
pressions of the bleacher gods, and as papa
had not then been chastened by ears and
habituated to calamities, 1t Is gossip that he
sometimes added remarks Of his own to the
jeers of which Wflmot complained.
Be this even SO, Wilmot, the manager, has
buried the sorrows Of Wilmot, the fielder,
and perchance will heap Goals Of fire by
the kindness with which he will rule his
former master.
Manager Wilmot was in truth long in con-
ference with President Hart yesterday morn
ing and the result will shortly be out in
detail.
Chicago is not the only national league
club with which Wilmot is trying to do BUSH
ness. He wants Willie Hutchinson back from
Won der Abe, and he wants him badly. He
also would like to get his hands on Shortstop
Monty Cross. For these two he has offered
Chris Fielder Lally and Shortstop Ball.
