PICKED PLAYERS
 OF BIG LEAGUES
Nationals and AII-AmeriCans
 at EaStIakc Park Yesterday
A Fine Exhibition of Base Ball Wit messed by Smaller Crowd Than it Deserved-Th Nationals Won by Score of , to l.

eighteen times at bat, an average of about three minutes was consumed each time.
 The All-Americans and All Nationals included many of the best players of their leagues. Ritchey CT the Pitts
 burg Nationals and Hartsel, Monte
 Cross and Beckley of the Philadelphia Athletics, were among the pennant
 winners. The players engaged in the tour of the west under Manager Joe Cantillcn are Bradley, Cross, La Joie, Davis, Hartsel, Jones, Harley, Bern hardt, Joss, Young, Coughlin and Sul-
 livJn of the llAmericans; Keeler, Cooley, Crawford, Irwin, Dahlen, Ritchey, Beckley, Chesbro, Tannehill and Donovan.
 The game was called at half past three at Eastlake park. There was not as large an audience as the fame of the players deserved. Phoenix has imagined itself to be Q base ball town, but every scrub game played here within recent years has called out a bigger audience. What has been thought to be infatuation for base ball turns out to be only a local patriotic sentiment.
 As an exhibition, the performance yesterday was unsurpassed. That the players had nothing hanging on the ro5ult may have det:acted from popu- i lar interest in the game, but the play ing was as spirited as if the contest for | the pennant were still going on.

 ter that burned a long scar in the earth. Dexter stopped it but couldn't ] hold it and the bases were full Sulli- van searched the air in vain for the l ball, nor could Bernhardt who sue cecded him find it. MT. Bernhardt 1 then realized how the great state of Pennsylvania feels about him. It has not been able to find him.
