ed from Cape Gris-Nez (betweeq Bou-
logne-Sur- Mer and Calais) In an attempt
to swim to Dover. narrowly escaped
drowning. He covered the course to a
point within six miles Of Dover and then
collapsed, after having been in the water
twelve hours and forty-six minutes
The tug which accompanied him took
him from the water and brought him to
Dover this morning. He was carried to
hotel in a semi-conscious, precarious
state. and subsequently on the advice of
his medical attendants was removed to
hospital, where he lay for some time in
a serious condition. It was found that
his eyesight had been badly affected by
the salt water. Tonight, however. he had
recovered, and he announced his ihten-
ton to renew the attempt.
He wore a white cap that covered his
head and partially protected his face.
and also a mask from brow 70 nose in
order to protect his eyes. He found it
impossible to take solid food without
swallowing sea water, and he therefore
subsisted mainly on raw eggs, as he was
able to suck these while lying on MS
back. He also took hot milk from a feed
ing bottle. The sea was heavy and there

NOTEs OF THE GAME.

Included in the makeup Of the Algona
team are some of the fastest players
in the business, but color bars a ma
JoritN of them out of professional ball
; Egans action in cutting third base is
to be regretted. There is no question
but that any player in any game would
have done the same thing, but such a
play IS hardly the thing when out-of-
town teams are playing before an audi
ence composed largely Of out-of-town
people in a strange city.
II reports of Umpire FoIeys decision
are true, he made great mistake in
saying that he saw Egan make his run
and that he did not cut the base. The
one. Had Foley declared that he did not
see the cut. mis- decision in allowing the
score could not have been questioned.
Home Run Jones is certainly a
whirlwind. He is wonder IS a pitcher.
and no pitcher ever llelded his position
faster or mere perfectly. He seldom
strikes out batter, but is still effective
because the batter seems unable to get
the ball out of the diamond
The work of Hopkins at second base,
and Annis, at third base was Of the SEN
Satonal order. Nothing was too difficult
for these players, and nothing Sot away
from them. AnuiS is a white man, and
IL is probable that he may be signed for
the St. Paul team. His playing made
great impression on President Lennon,
who was an interested spectator
Gehring cinched his chance of a trial
by the ST. Paul league team by his work
yesterday. He held the strong Algona
team down to four scattering hits and.
famed nine Of them.
Third Baseman Egan, Shortstop Mitch
ell and Center Fielder FeatnerStone were
the stars OF the LtJchfead team. All had
4 number of difficult chances and all
were accepted. Bearwald also caught a
great game, as his record of eleven put
