one CaSSlboine, a young man who has
been endeavoringl for the past several
weeks to convince Percival Gordon Wer-
den, head oVerseer and first assistant
coach of the Minneapolis American as
6cciation team, that he is fast enough to
be bossed ny the umpires appointed by
Thomas Jefferson Hickey, tried during
the eighth round of the game at Licking
ton park yesterday afternoon, to find
handles on the ball. While Mr.. CASH
boine was forgetting the jug idea the
Prairie Leaguers chased two runs
around the sacks. Carrish swatted hard
moment later, another run was pushed
in, and the professionals We're defeated
by the amateurs.
Walter Wilmot's team of professional
ball tOSsers should have defeated Billy
Egan amateur players yesterday after
noon, but they didn't. Short Mr. Cas-
siboine helped considerable in changing
the expected condition of things, but
there were several other working Incl
dents.
Here CasSabOine SIumped.
A tall youth named Sporer, who worked
4 south side movement all through the
event. was one of the other Incidents
when it came to issuing free passes to
the first sack the young man with the
wrong handed swing had the prize win
ner in the crouch class walking with
limp. and he was even more careful in
distributing safe swats. Wilmots pen
Dant chasers collected nine during the
afternoon, but they came further apart
than salary afternoons.
A well built twirler named Corbett
started working on the slab for the Mill
ers. When a boy Corbett was better
known as young Chapleski, but Chaplesk
was too much Tor the scorers, and to save
time the young man consented to the dis
Buise.
Corbett, or Chaplcski, worked five
rounds, and then rtIrned to his street
clothes. The Prairie Leaguers were
ticklcd to death to see him return for
during the five acts nine amateurs swat
red mostly at large punches of sun-warm-
ed ambient.
Luther a pious-looking blond boy, fol-
owed Corbett-Chaplesld, and the pious
Dlond boy was also good. He also heaved
N a collection of mystic ones, but about
his time the weird ideas began to creep
n under the bonnet of Shorty Cassiboine.
Here CassabOine SIumped.
1t was in the eighth, and, without at
tempting any dollar-a-line stuff, two men
were on the bases, with Delaney at the
plate. Luther just flung one in and De-
. laney, anxious to eliminate the thoughts
compelled by the two buXCm boots he
had contributed, went after the flung one
CassibOine declared afterWard that he
was ar infielder and claimed that he had
no business in the left garden, but he
vas there and he got under the Delaney
high enc. Then he reached for the han
1les and the gloom began to settle down.
Beecher saw the mad Cassboine grab
and sprinted for the plate. Williams,
who had been waiting at first, also ran
Beecher walked at the finish but Will
ANS continued to hurry all the way and
CasSiboine noticed The hurry In one
last despairing attempt to keep the
5ouble-cross pencil from the end of his
calne the ambitious boy hurried the ball
20 the plate. He strained himself and
The score was in a knot.
Delaney waited at second until Carrish
contributed the third of his justly cele-
Drated JoltS, and when the little round
eather was recovered the Prairie
Capt. Percival Gordon Werden looped
The loop for the Millers' first one in the
second round, and in the ninth the Cap'n
ried to show his students how to make a
asst rally by landing a safe one. Cap'n
Werden was good, but he was too late
or two were gone and MOrrisSey only
rolled an easy one down to SpOrer
The game was fast one and the
Prairie Leaguers earned their win, for
hey never stopped fighting. Egan was a
tar a. the third sack, and Williams, at
ifSt. played steady game. Page was
lure at short and used his head like an
Hd-timer at the plate. Sporer is a. likely
9aEdidate for some league team, for the
iCuthpaw worked even better than eth
