Record of the Clubs,

The Senators made an even break of it in
their double-header yesterday with the
Cleveland Spiders. winning the first game
by Il TO 1, and losing the second by II to TO-
Little Casey, who played short for the
nome team, was responsible for the loss of
the second contest, his three errors in the
seventh inning, when the Senators were one
run to the good, allowing the visitors to
score three runs. In this inning Fraser the
first man up for the Spiders, struck out,
and then Casey was given rather difficult
chance by Burkett, but the midget permit
ted the ball to get past him. Criger, the
next man up, sent the little man a ground
er, on which double play should easily
have resulted, but Casey first fumbled the
ball and then shot it over Reitz's head
Mexican sent Burkett home by single to
center. and, after Wallace had given Casey
another chance to retire the side on which
the diminutive fell down, O'Connor sent
two more men home by a single In their
half of the inning the Senators failed to
score. and Umpire Tom Brown then called
the game because of darkness.
Both contests were marked by heavy bat
ting. killen being touched up for thirteen
safete5 and Wilson and Young for sixteen
IN the first game, and Fraser for eleven
ana SutnoH and Mercer for sixteen in the
second. Five home runs We're made in the
two games, Reitz and Smith getting one
apiece in the first, and Selbach Anderson
ana Mexican one each in the second. Dur
ing the second inning of the opening game
when the Senators scored eight runs Will
son was badly hurt by a terrific bounder
from Carrs bat, the ball passing through
his hands and cutting a great cash over
his right eye. He was taken to Freedmens S
Hospital, and Cy Young took his place on
the rubber. Suthoff one of Manager Ir-
wins Toronto twirlers, started the second
game, but owing to consecutive hitting was
replaced by Mercer during the fifth inning
and Winnie, but for the misplays of Casey
would have landed another game for the
Irwinites.
Tom Brown was the only umpire to put
in an appearance, and his life was made
miserable by the constant. and. for the
most part. unwarranted kicking of the
Cleveland men, Captain Tebeau being the
leader.
The Senators won the first game in the
second inning, when Wilson was knocked
out of the box in more than one way.
Carr, secured from the Atlantic City
team. made his first appearance in sena-
torial uniform, and played first in a manner
which secured the commendaton of the
small gathering present, making but one
error out of twenty-seven chances in the
two games. Out of eight times at the bat
he made three singles. Scores:

Play was continued yesterday in the first
round of the Columbia Athletic Clubs tour
nament at Columbia Field The first match
was between Taliaferro and Moore and was
won by the former by the score of 81, 6-3.

vantage. In the second, however, Taliafer-
ros speed told on his adversary, who was
beaten six games to three.
| The second match between Brawner and
Campbell, resulted in victory for BraWner
by the score of 81, So Brawner played a
net game, volleying his opponents returns
to good advantage although Campbell put
many balls beyond his reach by clever lob
bing.
May and Coburn finished their match be-
gun Wednesday, which had been postponed
won a set by the score of SO. This match
was the closest yet played in the tourna-
ment and no one could guess the result un-
til the last stroke had been played. In the
deciding set Coburn had the score five
games to two and every one expected that
the end was near at hand, when May made
beautiful squirt, winning three straight
games. This made the score 80 and the
next two games were extremely close. each
being wen only after long and winding
struggle At length, with the score 6-5 and
advantage IN Coburn's favor, May smashed
the ball outside, losing set and ma tch, Sc.
6-S, 7-5.
The contestants tomorrow will be Glenn
ons and Pomeroy in the first round and
Taliaferro in the semi-finals.

are truly thankful and hope he will con-

thing was the election of chairman,
and the ladies promptly voted the mems |
candidate for that honor, down and out,
and elected a gentleman of their own
selection; secretary, likewise. When
the nomination for mayor came up the
ladies paid no attention to the men and
nominated to suit themselves. At this
point the sterner sex bolted the cogven-
ton in body and thinking cuss words
in Is different languages. The ladies
proceeded to nominate theiA ticket and
adjour ned in good order, The last that
was seen of Monte -he was headed for

wired the chief of police at Portland to
watch for him, so if he passes that way
he will no doubt be apprehended.

tured at Portland, Oregon, in just 10
minutes after he bolted the Caldwell
and returned to his home in
a padded stock car.
