There was a time when Jot Goar was
considered the star pitcher Of the west
ern league. He was accustomed to hold
the best hitting teams in the business
down to four and five hits a game.
Yesterday st. Paul made eighteen

1t was great game. For two IN
nings neither scored. Then st. Paul
made three. Indianapolis made three
right back. Three innings more
elapsed without a run. Then ST. Paul
made three The pace was too fast for
the HOLSTERS, who could get but one.
THAT was six to four. Then the home
club made it seven to four. Then the
visitors made it seven to SIX. one III
ming remained for them to eaten up.
The locals should have been retired,
but for a pair of errors, costly ones as
they turned out, when ST. Paul struck
a batting streak and pounded IN seven
more runs. The visitors made one,
which would have tied before, but
which could not overcome that lead.
Mcbride, who watched wild pitches;
O'Rourke, who forced Me off; and Shu-
CART, who profted by a tumble of old
man Motz, were the only Saints to get
to first in the first two innings. Hog
riever lifted the visitors into haven
of hope by cracking out double the
first time UP, but the next two could
not advance him, and Tim O'Rourke
poked the ball through Georges ribs
when Motz batted it down that way.
But in the third it began to look like
the real thing. McGiil was hit by one

Bride, when four times in succession

failed to cut the plate. O'Rourke
passed a pop-up to Eustace, but Billy
George intercepted the voyage Of one
piratical outshoot and planted the ball
in the deoxidized anthracite at the
farthest end Of the park. 1t was not
really fertile soil, but it produced three
runs for the Saints almost as quick as
it can be told.
Eustace batted one to O'Rourke At
least O'Rourke thought it was for him,
and he kept Shugart from getting 1t.
Goar sent high one to Spies, and Eus-
tace was caught trying to run to Sec

any great runners, anyway, as Dave
