Ridgeway & Co. have one Of the

California redwood board sixteen feet

There was no mill in Fresno county
large enough to trim this giant piece of
wood. It would make an elegant coun-

battle will be drawn up and signed by

Each consoled himself with the thought
that IL the others won they would have to

Pickups From Tho Diamond.

Roy Evans pitched all around the Hart
ford ''phenom" at Rocky yesterday. He
was given strong support I'm the field and
at the bat and Big Bill' could not win.
Donovan was around, previous TO the
game. offering big money that he would
win his game. He is reported to have lost
quite large sum on the result.
Providence showed tact yesterday in
waiting for the good ones to come over
and then swiping them out. When they
didn't come over, the boys walked to first.
In justice to the Hartford crowd 1t may
be said that they did not die without a
struggle. They were ready at any and all
times TO register kick on the slightest
provocation.
The Rochester Rowdies went into
second place yesterday by the victory
over the kanucks.
The present series between Hartford
and Providence will be brought to a close
this afternoon at Adelaide Park. when
two games will be fought out.
The SECOND contest is the one which was
originally scheduled for last Friday. upon
which date the Brooklyns played an ex-
hibition game.
Providence supporters have been made
glad by the great showing already made
by the Graybacks. but they appear To
have overlooked the fact that there is
still chance for the Figgers to win two
games and break even on the present
series.
DunkIe and Friend are slated to oppose
Flaherty and Hemming this afternoon
and the local end OF the twirling game
will be properly cared for.
Fiaherty will probably pitch the OPEN
ing game and should he be successful he
may attempt to duplicate the feat which
he performed recently against Rochester
at Hartford. when he won two games In
one day, allowing the Rowdies only three
hits in the second game.
