TIPS FROM THE BAT

The crowd shivered, hut stayed at both
games.
Ramsey is all that is required IN the left
portion of the lot. He got the biggest
hand of any man on the team Saturday.
The "shake-up" OF the A. A. is sure to
bring better results. All the men played
their new positions Ike veterans.
For a pitcher the batting Of Faulkner
was phenomenal.
Tricky" France was there with his lit
tie stick on saturday
Jimmy" O'Niel Is as limber as n cat In
the field. and worries the base runners
considerably.
Ramsey was responsible for much Of the
roofing IN the left field bleachers. His
Now boys, yell" was always met with q
deafening shout.
| Ballantyne is in his regular position al
first. where he win probably play the re
nialnder Of the seasOl.
Both games were attended by thous
ands despite the cold weather.
j The two "burhes' Bailantyne and sars

MANY WAYS OF
PLAYING POLICY

are supposed to take place at u a. m.
and p. M, respectively. Now for the
bet. For instance a person selects three
numbers and bets five cents, they will
appear in the morning drawing. Should
these numbers be drawn and appear
on one row the policy player is entitled
to win s.. Should two Of these numbers,
however, appear in one row. and the
remaining one in the other, the player
loses. All three numbers. when played
fiat, must appear in one row to insure
a winning "a fiat bet is one that is
placed straight on any number Of num-
bers, but all must show in one row. If
five cents is bet on four numbers select
ed, and all appear in one row, the
winning vii be more than s.. but the
chance of winning is greatly increased
If only three numbers are selected.
There are many terms used and
ways employed I'm playing policy, such
as five cents fiat on three numbers
two is half. This bet will cost a play
er nine cents to play. If all three mum
bers selected come out in one row the
winning Is s., while If but two numbers
appear in one row, the player is en-
titled to fifty cents. There are hundreds
of other ways TO play that would con-
fuse any pelsOn not familiar with the
II game, and to explain them would take
Il up a whole page of a newspaper.
j Dreams take an important part in pol
i icy playing. especially among the col
j ored people. There are combinations
j Of numbers arranged for everything
/ faIl
ed containing pages after pages Of such
combination numbers, which, OF coarse
a sensible man has nothing but con-
tempt for For instance. to dream about

to appear in that days drawings. There
are thousands of such rows" bat they

the game going for many years. An oc

A particulars long snd cold shiver was
sent up the backs OF the local rooters I'm

in to pitch. 1t was his first trial and
proved q severe test upon the nerves OF the
local supporters. The first four balls hel
handed out came nowhere near the plato
and Melan went to ,ist Conroy by AMI
error allowed the next man to reach first
and Mehan came home Leonard then IS
sued another pass and with no one out
the crowd got a bad case Of cold feet but
just then William Day, Esquire, was
brought from his scar upon the bench,
where ne Nsas sunnns himself sheltered
from tho wind and the scene was changed.
He famed the first man and the next two
were easily thrown opt at first.
