The times., 1897-06-11
Again the Senators won.

Two times il, row they vevanquished
the tail-enders. 1t was the first time this
season that tile Statesmen, have been able
TO take the enemy into camp twice in two
days, but their work yesterda showed that
in oontesting for honors with a weaker foe
they are exceptionally strong. They ought
TO be able to make IL three straight
Should this be the case there viii be n
hot time in the old town tomorrow night
As ii is, the cranks can rejoice over d
second victory, won by a score of $ to g.
Silver King, the advance agent OF July
4 was ON the rubber for the home team,
and his cross fires, excepting one inning,
Were like the celebration Of the national
holiday by the small boy whose father is
fortunate enough to have full purse and
viii loosen up TO purchase pack or two
Of shooting crackers.
The local fellows went at Won der Ahe's
German twirler. Kissinger, in mad rush,
and two baggers for time were the order
OF the day. Tucker, Abbey, McGuire, and
King were the sluggers. The youthful
pitcher was sadly out Of condition, and
it becomes h.m to get on a great deal of
flesh to fill the blooming suit he wore
haps is the cause OF his sloppy work in
the box. he lasted two innings and two
thirds, being succeeded by William Hart.
Mr.. Hart became much offended at
Tom Tucker, andin modest way requested
Umpire Sheridan to make That shut up,
referring to Tom, who was doing great
deal OF coaching without a man on base
The ohliging possessor of the Indicator,
h
during their mid-winter session, forced the
ex-Beaneater to cease talking, and later
in the game he made Cartwright's sue
cessor go TO the bench.
Abbey was in the game to the fashion of
s. Keeler. lie snatched a line nit from
The green sward while on a dead run
The sun was in his eyes, but it had no
effect on Charley's optics. His blinkars
were ali right, too, while at the hat, his
two doubles being ample evidence to this
effect.
Selbach's play off Hallman's fly in the
seventh, when he caught Turner at the
plate, was the feature of the game The
st Louis right fielder had made a three
bagger to left center, and when the Ger
man Barren srnothcred HaIlman's fly Tur-
pcr made a dash for home. 1t seemed as
if the runner were fleeing from danger
and on his eountenance was written, Keep
thee behind me, Satan,''s but the leather
shot out of the fielder's hand Ike a rifle
shot and settl ed in McGuire's glove
You're OUT shouted Sheridan, and the
2, 800 people hardened for a second TO Il
regular fusillade of shouts from the visit
ors' bench, and then broke loose in thun-
der of applause, which was renewed at
the end of the inning, when the young man
came to the overcrowded bench Of the
Senator's
Tom Brown fielded his position in an i'm
proved manner, and showed the form of
two-year old. King batted in the first
division class and in an effort to stretch
short two-baggeT into triple he gave the
cranks an exhibition of wonderful burst
OF speed. His hopes were blasted, as he
was within a slide from the goal because
Cross, on the return of the ball by Lally
made an accurate throw to Hartman
DeMontreville's error did not affect the
score, and none of the chances he ac-
cepted were very difficult. O'Brien's field
ing was clean and sharp and his one error
was an excusable low throw to home At
the bat he was in hard luck, his hits being
hard each time, but he could not land the
ball in unoccupied territory.
Reilly was in the procession In the way
of gobbling up grounders and shooting
them over TO first Ali this he did like
the graduate gets his lessons
Billy Hart broke up Kissinger's battle
in the midst of a sharp encounter in the
third, after double and two singles had
been registered against him. But the
hatrei prfnt nifehar Hid not <raS
settled down for some time. The first |
two men who appeared before him he sent
on free pass to first.
Douglass made his first appearance be-
hind the bat, but sharp foul tip caught |
him On one Of his fingers, and Morgan |
Murphy put on the chest protector and |
mitt, and all went well to the end.
Haliman, Grady, Cross, and Hartman did
