1t was worth the price of admission
to behold the playing of one Mr.. Hickey
on third base. There should be a
statute of limitation to keep such a man
out of base ball games. 1t is like play

plays third base. For he is worth just

so than in the previous game.
The Hoosiers cinched the game at the
very start. When the locals opened the
first inning they went out one, two, three.

such a lazy pass for him that Hoggy slid
under and lit on the bag with ease and
satisfaction. Then Mcfarland was hit by
McGill and this filled the bases. Allen
hit down to Ball, who caught Mac at Sec

would have been good had any one but
Hickey been on third. Hickey made a
great stop and a great throw and the
fun was over.
The Hoosiers had been good dur

they got rambunctious again, and on
wicked drives by Kellum, HOggy, Hart

scored three times again.
The Saints got a lonely one in the fifth

game. Glenalvin and Isbell then went
out on outtield flies, and the game was
over.
The work of Preston, Burke and Bah

fine. Score:
