After applying the kalsomine to the wear
ers of the Cardinal for seven innings yester-
day Noodles Hahn's lime gave out and
in the next inning Donovan's men began
an assault on his stock in trade that re-
suited in five runners crossing the plate.
Mcfarland also had his little pot OF
whitewash on hand and painted beautiful
row of eight horse collars on the part of the
score board allotted to the visiting teams.
Mcfarland had begun to work out the
ninth cipher for Cincinnati and would have
completed the job had Davy Brain not care

paint bucket by making an error. Brains
error resulted in the Reds scoring one run.

For seven innings 1t was pretty duel be-
tween Mcfarland and Hahn. the former
holding the Cardinals down to one safe hit.
During that time Cincinnati managed to
manufacture four hits of the material
dished up by Mcfarland. but their bats
seemed to be made Of soft rubber when
hits meant runs.
CREDIT DUE MCFARLAND.
To Mcfarland more than any other Car
dinal belongs the credit for victory. After
the Reds had carefully planned to break up
the game in the second inning. Mcfarland
spoiled their plans by a clever stroke of
pitching. With DAILY on third and PETIT on
second, Mcfarland famed Bergen His
cleverest pitching feat however. was In the
fourth inning. After Dolan and Beckley had
singled and took third on a passed ball
things took on a pale-blue cast for the 10
calls Mack jumped into the breach and
famed the next two batters. PETIT then
obligingly lifted a pop to Barclay. reliey-
