The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-19
BY BILLY MAC.

Thanks to that forty some-odd slug
of lead now stalled somewhere In the
southern section of Harold Allemang's
Shapely frame, the Saints were able to
hand G. Tebeau's troopers from Ken
lucky theirs without difficulty. Score,
6 to 2. Thomas Walker, who is to be
called to the big league on account Of
his f1inging ability. was sent in to dis
appoint the 2,051 present, but with
iAllemang carrying weight there was
nothing to it.
Harrys friends felt real bad about it
when the daring safe cracker pumped
lAllemang's system full of solder, but
| as it now turns out it was all for the
best. The melted section of water pipe
did spend some time in Harry's pitch
ing wing and spoiled his chance to
spend money in Cincinnati, but later it
moved down toward his paddles and
appears to be anchored there.
| 1t was still there yesterday, and its
presence saved much trouble. With
his feet weighted, Harry refused to let
go the ground when Ranny Kerwin
cracked open the battle with clout
that dropped near tramp sleeping In
Central park, and firm on the dirt,
stopped all contemplated beltfests and
held the Colonies safe Hurrah!
/ Hearty, robust clouts and real frisky
work on the paths mostly put Tommy
Walker to the bad. Passes handed out
at improper moment helped some. For
a time Willie Schriver saw bases being
stolen so rapidly that he found 1t Inn
possible to keep his bonnet on and
track of the sprinters at the same
time Belonging to the same union,
Jawn Sullivan kindly loaned the Looie-
willie youngster his cap. and after fit
ting it to his block, Willie enjoyed some
success in stopping the daring ones.
/ Thanks to Mr.. Hickey's contempt for
Monday ball games, the local schedule
for ladies' days has become thorough
ly balled up. Anxious to allow the
more fortunate fanatics two chances
week to escort the women folks
Through the gate without extra ex-
Lpense, the local management has been
using a Tuesday every time Monday
WAS maltreated by Mr.. Hickey.
! Not having heard that the Saints
lwalloped the lobster champions day
ibefore yesterday, a number of the sex
afraid of mice turned out and called c.
tHuggins a big, mean brute. One en-
ithusiastic dame approached the gate
with her finger inserted between the
tpages of Tim Sullfvan's history Of the
ball game.
/ Isn't this ladies' day." she asked
when the polite Mr.. Higgins extended
his mitt.
mo, ma'am; yesterday was ladies'
day"
! E'Well, I don't care much, was just
walking by and thought l would drop
in and read this book while the match
was being played. 1t makes the story
so realistic"
Kerwin's Home Run Drive.
! The baseball fever is sure spreading
in this burg.
{ Another recruit for the large army
that, according to reports from Mil
waukee and other smoke towns, is to
go up to the big leagues, was diScov
cred yesterday in the person of Danny
tKerWin. Mr.. Kerwin will do his spring
training with the Reds, OF Cincinnati,
and may remain with Mr. Hermann
some time longer.
Fearing that one of Mr.. Hermann's
agents might be concealed in the
stands Danny refused to take chances
and cracked open the game with his
home run belt. Not having heard any
calls for the Hart family Jimmie Hart
went out from Allemang to Wheeler.
r. Brashear beat a bunt and went to
second when AIlemang in his hurry
heaved over Wheeler's head. With one
in and Hart on second it looked bad
but the lead began to work and Brasil
ear was still waiting when S. Sullivan
made the third out.
P. Geier started the Saints part of
the inning with a two-Sacker against
the right field fence. Shannon beat a
punk hit and Jackson moved Geier and
Shannon along with a sacrifice. Schae-
fer hit to S. Sullivan and Geier was
stopped at the plate. Schaefer stole
second before Higgins had drawn his
pass and with the bases filed Walker
handed four wide ones to Flournoy and
Shannon walked in with the run that
knotted it.
The Saints united the knot in the
third when Middle Sehaefer doubled
and scored on Higgins single
There was nothing more doing in the
tally line until the seventh when, with
Geier down, Shannon singled. Jackson
damned out another one-baser and
then the two worked a double steal
while Willie Schriver was busy catching
Schaefer's third strike. Higgins rap
ped one to right field fence and Shan
non and Jackson Tailed. Higgins
lifted second when Schriver tried to
get him at first and scored on Flour
noy's long drive to the score board
