The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-07-17

A mad craving to see Gibson, the
tWlrler, who pitched a one-hlt game
and failed to get away with it, drew
81 enthusiastic fanatics of this base
ball-mad town to Lexington park yes
terday afternoon. Gibson fell down on
the one-hit turn, but got away with
the game. Score 8 to 1.
Fortunate Jones, the colored mascot,
and his fiipper feet came as far as the
gate, but the several hot-blooded
Southern gentlemen associated with M.
Kelley are working hard to discourage
business in the colored mascot line and
Fortunate waited on the outside.
There is reason in the madness of
the hot-blooded Southern gents. Before
Archie Stimmel Squandered the 5 cents
on ripper feet, all was, despite the
large hospital list, straight, unadulter
ated happiness in the camp of the
Saints. Now Bobbie Lynch is hurry
Mr.. Foreman failed to appear and is
suspected of a return to the low comedy
role, and Kelley has run short of I'M
derStudieS.
Dale Gear offered to divide Foreman
umpire honors with another, but the
groundkeeper refused to dress for the
occasion and the manager of the Blues
was compelled to enjoy it without as
Siskance. All this was hard on D. Gear.
Kelley should have provided something
for the Cowmen to bark at.
Strike Out Exhibitions.
In addition to the double jump fea-
ture mentioned above, One-Hit Gibson
and Archie Stimmel entertained the
S11 with a real strike out exhibition.
No. IL on the 100 that wasn't finished,
declared that he came all the way from
North Branch and insisted that he was
glad he had CHANGED the long and tire
some ride.
This pleasing feature was turned on
in the finishing end of the fourth and
was carried over to the second section
of the fifth. When it ended the humid
ity looked mostly like a well worked
over portion of round steak.
One-Hit Gibson started it in a mo-
ment of pique. H. Lumley raped out
a single and D. Gear called four of
the Gibson benders bad while Higgins
waited. Gibson worked with move
ment that resembles an excited brake
man trying to hurry up a flying switch.
When excited he becam more so. He
became more so right at this time and
]. Hurley never even saw the ball and
waved three times. G. Chech dittoed
and Archie Stimmel furnished the en-
core. H. Lumley and Higgins simply
waited on the paths.
A. Stimmel refused to allow even
q One-hit record man to put anything
over him and hurried to the slab. If
the tall tosser had only remained that
angry all afternoon he would have
compelled the announcement of a new
tanning record.
Stimmel cut out the one hit and one
pass handicap and started right at the
beginning. Beville thought he saw
three whiZ by and went back to the
bench. Grady had a better chance for
Stimmel was heaving them in so fast
that Hurley only tried to stop them.
Hurley threw Grady out at first after
the third wave of the stick. Nance
knew it was all off and after wigwag-
ging at three refused to even look to see
if Hurley had dropped the last one.
Nance Starts Scoring.
1t was with regret that we admit
that all this happened after the trou-
BILE. Nance started a miserable after
noon by lacing one for two sacks in
single, but Nance was held at third
Smith sent a high one to Chech and
Nance scored. He was needlessly ex-
cited, for Theil raped one before the
round ended and he could have finished
on that.
In the third Ferguson stabbed one in
time to stop Rothfuss, but Beville
poked one for a base. Grady damned
safe and Beville tried to go on round
to third. He should have stopped al
the middle. Chech got the ball back to
billiard and Beville was a wasted
chance. The dust and excitement lei
Grade move down to the middle. He
came the other half on Nance's lone
one. Shannon might have tried a
