and as she is seldom off the line and is de-
cidedly above the average at the short
game she should prove a worthy opponent
to the present champion.
Miss Vanderhoef who halls from ArdSley,
is among the youngest of the aspirants for
high hOnors. Comparatively frail in build,
she possesses a free, full swing which Is re-
markabe for the speed at which her club
comes at the ball This unquestionably &C
counts for the length she gets, but owing
to her youth she will be Ill advised If she
attempts to outdrive such a brilliant long
player Mrs. Stout. An old and expert
enced player at the game, in speaking last
night of the pair, said: IF Miss Wander
hoef can restrain her curiosity she will be
wise if she looks elsewhere when Mrs.
Stout is playing full shot,
of course, it is generally expected that
Mrs Manice and Mrs. Stout will meet in
the final, but today's matches. whatever

A REGULAR WATERLOO.
Sixth Defeats Calvary by the Score o!
IA to l.

The ball tossers from the Sixth Presby-
terrain Church took a good hard fall out of
Calvary Baptist's team yesterday after
noon, thereby breaking the tie for third
place in the Church League and getting
sweet revenge for it's defeat by the Brown
Stockings last Monday. In that game the
Sixth INDUCED in some stupid base running
and Catcher Russell by his remarkable
work contributed lions share toward the
undoing of the Presbyterians. His work
yesterday was in marked contrast and
Calvary took a turn in giving an exhibition
Of weird work on the bases.
Campbell secured a neat bingle in the
opening inning. but there was nothing more
doing. In the next inning, however, the fun
began for Sixth and the agony for Calvary
and its followers. After ]. Evans had
famed. Briggs drew a pass, Smith soaked
one over Cragg's head for two cushions
promptly stealing third while Briggs scor-
ed on his hit. Handibae tore three holes
in the atmosphere and it looked as if the
fireworks display was over. Bielaskf, how
ever, poked a nice one into center. scoring
Smith. On Bielaski's pilfer of second Rus
sell threw wild and his error seemed to
get next to the nerves of the infield. Beall
made mess of CampbelPs chance and two
hits followed, scoring Campbell.
G.. Evans gave Burke an easy chance, but
the third baseman either thought only one
man was out or was in a trance. for in
stead of throwing to first. an easy out, he

Several singles and doubles, with few

but Sixth tempered its victory with mercy
and did not score more than three runs

game.
Calyarys lone tally came in the fourth
on hits by Russell and Price.
Smith was steady with men on bases and
received good support. Green, Russell,
Campbell. Kennedy and Woodward batted
heavily, and Smith donated a triple and

Handiboe's work at second was excellent
and Witten also accepted his three chances

Forbes Was Easy for Feltz.

In the eleventh round of one of the fast
est fights ever seen in ST. Louis Tommy
Feltz of Savannah, Ca. last night got the
decision over Clarence Forbes of Chicago.
The referee. Harry Sharp, stopped the
fight in the middle of the round, as Forbes
was in distress. Feltz was on the agrees
sive throughout the entire fight, barring
the eighth round, in which Forbes attempt
ed to rush matters, but Feltz took all the
punishment and came back so strong that
Forbes was very groggy at the bell tap.
Two six-round bouts preceded the main
event. In the first of these Young Kid Nc
Coy of Pittsburg knocked out Billy True

In the second Nick Sanford of Chicago got

doubles, while the rest of the team Is
credited with two singles. Think it over.
Jesse Burkett's error was the result of a

disciplined him deservedly and he should

that the team can get along without Mr..

ris Peters Company base ball teams en-
gagged in as interesting game of ball on
the latters grounds yesterday as has been
seen here this season, and resulted in a
victory for the Norris Peters team by the
score of to 3. The work was fast and
snappy all through the game. and star
that the boys were in good condition. The
work of Babson on third deserves mention,
he accepting nine chances without an error,
while at the bat he made three singles out
of four times up. Wheatley's double play
in the third also deserves great credit for
the beautiful throw from deep left into
first base, putting a man out at that sack.
Buckingham, for the Columbias, pitched
q fine game.
The Norris Peters team started the run
getting in the third inning, Babson dropped
single back of first base. stole second and
came home on Hughes twO-bagger. In the
sixth inning the same thing was repeated
making their second score. In the seventh
inning HALEY sent a hot one to ClotZbach
who fielded 1t all right but threw wide to
first, and HALEY went around to third on
the error. Wheatley then sacrificed, send
ing HALEY home. Gates singled and tried
to steal second. but was caught. Beckett
then singled, but Lay popped up fly and
retired the SIDE In the eighth H. Beckett
knocked pretty three Dagger. and came
home on Kings error, and this finished the
runs for N. P. Co.
The Columbias were unable to score until
the seventh inning, although they had men
on bases several times. In the seventh
inning Syminosk got base on errors was
advanced to second by Quantrelrs bunt,
buckingham flew out, King struck out, and
then ClotZbach drove out pretty double
sending Syminosh and Quantrell home
