nance hove TO in the western sky, Te-
beau's Tramps and WagneT's Statesmen
pulled off an argument on the diamond.
The visitors had all the best of il from
the start and won without much effort.
AS a matter Of fact the Senators We're
not in the contest at any stage, except
for a few minutes in the first inn ng,
when they scored one run.
Spider Wilson was on the rubber
for the Wanderers, and, barring the
initial inn ng. pitched with great effect
The only player on the home team who
seemed at all able TO connect with the
Indians curves was Rietz. who secured
four cracking clean singles out of as
many times at bat and sent home the
only runs scored by the locals Pepper
also gave a superb exhibition at second
base, accepting all chances offered
without an error. II was distinct.vely

twirling staff were called into action

his luck and curves against the visitors

across the green sward, and Andy, Jake
and Al We're kept exceedingly busy re-
turning the bali 10 the infield Before
the side was retired four Of the Tebeau
aggregation had made the circuit Of the
sacks. For the next two innings Wey-
hing was steady and the Tramps failed
10 get in safety. But in the eighth
another bombardment took place and a
duo Of Waits waited across the home
plate.
The game was void Of features, save
for a phenomenal running catch by
Burkett in the eighth inning. when he
scooped up McGuire's fly within a few
inches Of the ground. Wallace made a
sensational catch Of Selbach's fly back
