feet. Elated over his escape, however,
Meeks strayed too far from first base,
fell down in the mud and was thrown
out with an ease that made his I'M
timely end especially pitiable. Frisbee
| gave Gillen a chance, and the ball beat
him to the bag. Preston followed
| O'Hagan's example. and when he had
struck out the others were little more
| respectful to Manning's youthful south
paw in the center Of the diamond.
Burke hit the ball too far down, and
| FriShee caught 1t.
Miller sent a light one to Meredith,
and was thrown out handily.
McVicker hit hard one, but Pres
ton caught it, and then Shugart fun
bled another, which, while it came on
his left, seemed comparatively easy. 1t
dropped, struck his leg and bounded
badly. Williams was safe for just a
moment. Shugart bracing UP long
enough to stop the next one, and a
double play stopped damage as the re-
suit of his error. Glenalvin, Glasscock
and Shugart hit three scant infield
shots, two of them to Williams, and
| one to Viox, and as Williams fielded
all perfectly. the crowd began to dis
| trust Shugart a little.
He, however, did not seem to mind it
ana again failed to come 10 the critical
point when VioX opened the third in

Phyle presented O'Hagan with a gra-
tuitous walk to the Glasscock corner,

the first safe hit Of the game, opening

Meeks' catch of high. but wide foul
fly, which he had ample time to get

double play left both lines of the score
still set with ovals.
FriSbee opened the fourth with a.
vicious drive over second, which Gle

not field it to first in time, however.

Eagle Eye Henry Spies nailed it when

as Home Run Williams in the Western
association, drove out terrific one to
deep center, and it looked as if the
soprlquet was not misappl:ed, but Pres
ton, undaunted, went after it, and

toward the grand stand. II cut off a
nome run, probably. Frisbee, who had
stolen second in spite of the heavy
ground, started for third too soon, and
had to return to the sack. Had he
waited he could probably have gone to
third on the throw, where he would
nave scored on Shugart's fourth error,
which came on an easy one from
Nicholson's hat forthwith. With two
on bases Viox hit a high foul, and
Spies Of course caught it, again saving
Shugart and his colleagues. Preston
