The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-23
nv BILLY MAC,

After two hours and twenty miutes
of terrific cannonading the anxious
blistered patriots at last sighted the
Saints pulling out of the smoke of bat
tie with the bunged and battered win
on the end of the toW-llne. Score,
to Z. Hit the drum.
Speaking about pulled-out affairs,
this bumpy contest had a populist con-
vention looking like the hangover con-
cert of a bum one-ring circus Still
the 1854 were in luck. The decrepIt
champeens might have knotted it up in
the ninth and there is no telling where
it might have been continued to.
Nursing mad yearning to lug the
happy end of one game from our new
yard before bidding farewell to our
beautiful burg for this year the re-
signed Mr.. Watkins, prior to leaving
the clubs beanery, Shuff1ed his batting
list and informed the bunch that he
expected results. Noting the wasted
energy in the two doubles and one sin
gle pulled off by Dicky Marcan, Mr..
Watkins moved the young man up
where he could help out Marcan was
so overcome by the honor that he vast
ed five chances in q vain attempt to
show his appreciation. Mr.. Watkins
will probably finger his deck again this
morning.
Having found a booze joint willing to
trade two or three barrels of the flow
ing beverage for the cases of rye Of
fered the best sticker in the club by
the enterprising wine merchant, Middle
Schaefer tore off three doubles and
two singles during the afternoon. Get
ting into the race rather late, Middle
was in a hurry. II the ehampeens had
made good on their finish and knotted
it up MI. Schaefer is confident he could
have made it eight or nine blows for
the afternoon.
Four renowned singers were used up
in dragging this fanguid clash to the
bitter end. Mr.. Kelley made his switch
at the conclusion of the third round,
and not to be outdone in headwork, Mr..
Watkins came right back in the
champs turn to go to the field.
Four Pitchers Work.
DR.. Harvey William Bailey worked
for the Saints at the getaway, but in
the third the molar. jerker blew out
fuse and was unhitched to make way
for Asa Laurence Stewart. Thomas
Williams caught the calling-in sign
SfAta9Nt the same time, and handed his
~ to Mr.. Newlin. Williams might
remained to the finish but he
u with his gear badly denied and
Inn completely gave out in the
unhitching of Bailey proved that
BasebaH bug is hard at work in
sSsSs9 town. Not many moons ago a
Z Es.p of swats smaller than the bun
raped by the tooth architect would
BE called forth a loud demand for
y chasing Of the singer responsible,
go now it is different. Bailey re-
Aied an ovation when he came to
SSSlate at the end of his trying round

fss1 loud protest. We all intend
$500 to it as our pennant if the
Id it.

Mr.. Watkins started when the four
tal1ies counted. Catching the bali on
the snoot. Edward raised it over the
homerun section of the fence Just
when it could figure in landing the
Saints the Lead. This clout and Mid

from the fifteen sWats for special mon

Champions Score First.
Escaping in the shuttle of the cham
