banged the ball every time he came up,
and out of five trials hit safely four times.
The crowd is ready to worship him. ana
the best things Jack O'Brien ever did
are already forgotten in the present
achievements of the new hero OF the lett
garden.
Coughlin, too. was right in the game
with his wagon tongue. and also maze

and although the score credits him with
only a single it was In reality home
run drive and would have been so re
corded at any other point of the game,
but as he needed to only cross the frSt
base in order to bring in the winning run,
officially he made but a single. But the

Piatt did some good pitching at times,
and up to the seventh inning 1t looked as
if he had the Senators beaten to a stand
still, but in the lucky local inning the
spectators took their accustomed
stretch and the Washingtonians settled
down to the task of winning the game
Cantillion was once more on the ground
rendering decisions that at times We're
not decisions according to the opinion of
the assemble ge. Especially erroneous was
the Cantillion vision In the hrst inning nm
when Fultz hit directly over the first
base and Everett stopped the ball right
in front of the bag. According to the UNI
pire 1t was a foul, but the crowd advised
him to take to the farm once more, told
him that Major Sylvester after him,
called him thief, highwayman. and sew
eral other affectionate terms. while Ever
EFT chided him gently on his idea OF the
hit and only went back to his place of
business when Mr.. Cantillion advised him
il would cost him Y If he did not do so
al once. It Is doubtful If the perfect UNI
pire ever existed, or ever will for that
matter, and as these very necessary evils
60 Cantillion is no worse than some other
might prove.
Washington scored its first run in the
second inning on Fultz's failure to prop
erly field Gradys hit a steal, and a wild
pitch. In the fifth the locals got DUNCAN
and Foster across the rubber on Fultzs
error, Fosters single, and a smashing
base hit by Grady. Once more in the
lucky seventh the home men increased
the score two runs, Quinn and Foster
being the fortunate players, and the op
portunity being given by safe hits by
Foster, Quinn, and Grady. Coughlin
scored in the eighth on a single, Geier's
error and Murphy's misplay. Foster and
Everett brought home the necessary two
runs in the last inning to capture the
game
The PhHadelphias made their first run
in the second inning on a single by Sey
bold and Cross rafting fine drive for
three bases In the fourth Seybold got
in another hit for one bag, and went to
second on Cross out al first Powers hit
to Coughlin. who caught Lajoie at the
home plate, after the Athletics captain
had been enabled TO get that far around
the circuit by being hit by a pitched ball
and SeyboId's hit. Murphy followed with
3 hot hit to Coughlin, which he failed to
handle, and Seybold and Powers came in.
Piatt's single allowed Powers and Murphy
to tally. The visitors made two more
runs in their half OF the eighth, on singles
by Seybold and Murphy. and Powers
second hit for two bases.
This will come in handy for future ref
