with fast and snappy plays and unusual

done by the Printers enabled them to
make circuits of the bags until they had
become weary. For eight long innings
they did nothing but trot around the
bags, while one Mr.. Anderson, who
claims TO be twirler of the first water.
looked on in disgust.
Ashley. who twirled for the Print Shop
contingent. was at his best, and, better
still, tie team was in good form and a
good game was the result. Ashley struck
out ten men and allowed but four hits.
King played for the Printers and held
down third kopje His work was little
short of phenomenal, and he saved sev-

Adams got one of those high balls
which he relishes so much, and he pushed

Especial to The Washington r,nes.)


CLEVELAND. June 1.-Two games
won in one day is not so had for the
Spiders when cne considers that they are
gracing the tail end OF the procession.
1t was indeed a surprise to the local
fans. and quite as much to the local
players. when they won the two games
from the men from the city Of culture
without much effort. Moore pitched
for the locals in the first battle. and
under his pilotage the Spiders won the
game to s. Dineen, who ofiiciated on
the slab for the Bostonians, was pound
ed early and often.
In the second game it was mere bad
luck that the locals won, as their oppon-
ents led them up to the fourth inning
Then the Spiders began to get busy. and
got one to the good. The visitors
promptly tied the score again in the
sixth inning. Up to the ninth there was
nothing doing in the scoring line In
that session the locals managed to get
enc man across the rubber and won the
double header.

ed, inning after inning, in dazzling the
batting eyes of his former teammates
so that in their nine times up they fail
ed to touch him for more than a total
of two clean hits and another of the
scratch sort He had them hypnotized to
such an extent that they failed to To-
cate even the third bag and a liberal
coat Of whitewash was all they had as
a reward for their afternoons work, the
score being to against them.
Tom Lotus men after yesterdays
victory came prepared to take another
game and in order to clinch it. Lee was
brought in from the outer field and
tried 10 puzzle the Tigers with his left
handed benders, but they solved the
puzzle early in the game and while the
clever pitcher kept the hits well scatter
ed, enough were punched TO bring four
runs across the plate. He had good
support. OF the two errors charged to
Keister one was a decidedly hard
chance. Lee only gave one free pass, and,
like Mercer, only struck out one man.
His work in the field seemed to have
weakened his ability in the box.
Mercer was in splendid form and seem
ed to have all the heavy hitters at his
mercy. Delehanty, Ryan and Coughlin
could not land any OF their taps in safe
ground while Orth and Lee showed the
old warhorses the way by landing clean
hits. The two passes given by Mercer
were not at all costly, as neither pas
senger reached even third. Delehanty
had a clean sheet with neither hit nor
a put cut nor an assist to his credit.
Coughlin rendered good service at short
and played brilliantly, accepting all mis-
seven chances without semblance of
an error. and Wolverton had a good
day at third. handling five chances in
his usual clean way
In the opening inning Holmes hit
safely and an out and Dillon's hit
scored him. Brilliant fielding on both
sides prevented further scoring until
the eighth round when Keister made a
fine STOP but a bad throw off Holmes
grounder. Elberfeld then shot a liner
10 right ana Oflh let II get Dy MIN or
ii would have been single instead of a
fiuke triple. Dillon and Harley singled
and three runs was the total for the
inning.
Washington looked dangerous at times
but Mercer fooled them at every turn
and put a check to their ambition. The
umpiring by Johnstcne was rank and the
bleacherites fired bottles at him. Lotus
will give Patten a chance tomorrow to
win the last OF the series with the
Tigers. The score:

dived into tank of water only three

Several thousand people saw the fear

people held their breath during that
moment of strain Everyone was greatly
relieved when he reappeared on the sur
face of the shallow tank into which he
had dived after his perilous ride, and
appIauded Justify the accomplishment OF
the feat
Schreyer's ride is the most wonder
full thing Of it's kind ever witnessed. He
starts from a platform. which is over a
hundred feet above the earth. His BIZ
cycle is only an ordinary af-
fair. and is not built any differently than
any other bicycle.
The chute which be rides down is
erected at an angle OF about 60 OF
20 degrees. and is but three feet
wide and $50 feet long. When the
rider reaches the bottom of this chute,
there is a lefel platform. Trom the
end OF this the rider jumps from his
wheel and makes a dive of thirty feet
outward. and as many feet downward
into the stationary tank fastened in
a large opening in the ground.
A Few Seconds Consumed.
Only few seconds elapse from the
time he starts until he dives into the
tank He's off," shouted one of the
members of the vast audience, and in a
half second the rider was seen whizzing
down the incline like fash of light

and onto the platform. When the end
was reached. he jumped from his wheel.

below, which it struck with dull thud.
Gracefully the rider arched his back.
and plunged directly into the center of
the tank Thousands of eyes were cen

came a sudden splashing. By this t

the surface and had met with no acci-

applause.
There were several other good num-

who style themselves Kings of the Fly

pleased greatly with their tricks on the
rings.

Urged to Be Peaceful.

The Rev. II. J. McKettigan, pastor of
st. Joseph's Catholic Church, has issued
an address to the strikers cautioning
them against interference with the
strike breakers. He said that while these
men were brought here presumably to
protect the property CT the Reading
Company, there was a deeper purpose In
their coming, and that was to provoke
sentiment among the men such as
might lead to an open outbreak.
He commended the strikers for the
excellent way they have behaved and
urged them to pay no attention TO the
presence of hirelings or to loud mouthed
fellows who might try to create strife"
