Louisville, KY, June 26.-The Colo
hels made 1t four straight to-
day by taking the last game from the
Senators. The visitors made more hits
and less errors than Clarke's men. but
the Louisville players punched their hits
and they were productive of runs. Besides
the Senators used bad judgment on the
uases which contributed TO the Colonels'
victory. Woods and Dinneen were the
opposing pitchers. While Woods was hit
rather hard, he was effective when a hit
meant run, and fielded his position in
frst-class style. Dinneen was effective in
all but the fourth and sixth innings, when
he allowed the Colonels to bunch hits on
him. Atherton's batting was one of the
features. He drove out two singles and
a triple. Dexter, Wagner, Wills, and Leach
each got two hits.
In the first inning Clarke got his base on
balls. He stole second, and went TO third
on Dexter's out. Clarke stole home and
scored while Pitcher Dinneen was in the
act of delivering the ball Wagner fol-
lowed with a hit, but was thrown out
when he tried to steal second. After Free

stood in his tracks and let Clarke run after
the ball. Clarke missed it. and the ball
rolled on TO the club house. Hoy started
