The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-07-27
BY BILLY MAC.

On the eve of their departure for Mr..
Hickey's Eastern fields the lucky
Saints dug into the Looieyille troupe
when things were looking bad and
made it three in a row. Score, 6 to 4.
Seven wins in a string only do more
to convince the mighty Mr.. Brashear
that the leaders are a bunch of dubs.
The lobster champions only saw Mr..
Elliott for one blow, while the dubs
were easing it into the Tebeau crowd
and the hiatus between the leaders
and Mr.. Cantillon's terrors still looks
stingy This keen race cannot go Oh
much longer. The Beer City team also
caught one of Mrs. Pullman's cars for
the East last night, and as the Saints
look very good to us as road team,
were willing to take chances on the
explosion.
Much spouting of mud and one I'M
fortunate compound fracture OF the jaw
married the pleasure Of this getaway
affair. Mr.. Clymer speuted most Of the
talk and also drew the cracked talking
bone. The most disagreeable feature
of the accident was the failure of the
police to pinch Fred Odwel1, the jaw
breaker.
Odwell escaped arrest at the close Of
the eighth round In pushing his map
in front of the ball responsible for the
injury Clymer saved the appearance
of the honest Mr.. Foreman. Mr.. Fore
man was the mark when the ball start
ed, but Clymer came back to talk some
more words and just beat the ball
All this teaches the lesson that the
i
round Clymer objected to one of Mr.
Foreman's rulings and came in to whis-
per hoarse rude remarks into the
judges listener. Mr.. Foreman objected
to the language used and ordered
Clymer to the bench.
During the delay several Looieville
players gathered around their manager
and Mr.. Foreman and OdwelI wandered
down to second base. Picking up the
ball at the middle corner he shot it at
the group
Draped in his blue toys and with the
gray-clad players in the background
the jumps looked as big to Odwen as a
bean sandwich does to a tramp, and
the ball was coming straight when, not
in on the pleasing little man-killing
plan, Clymer turned and walked back
just far enough to get his face in
front of the ball.
The Looievflle manager dropped like
log and Odwef, disappointed in his
shot, strolled in to ascertain lust how
many bones he could break by throw
Ing fast one. The result showed that
this player has a wonderfully strong
arm, too strong for this association
One blacklist order addressed to Fred
Odwell, care George Tebeau, might en-
able him to utilize his strength in I'M
loading trunks at a freight house.
Harold Bullets Allemang, of Rock
Island, Cincinnati, Toledo, Columbus,
indianapolis and other places debutted
as member Of M. Kelley's twirling
staff, and, for a man who is compelled
to lug big forty-four lead slug around
all the time, Harold performed in
very satisfactory manner The lead
still bothers Mr.. Allemang, but he is
rapidly becoming accustomed to it, and
hopes to soon be able to resume ~as a
star finger.
One of the several Egans still play
Ing the national game worked against
Allemang, and, while he pitched
steady game, the Saints had no trouble
In grouping their belts at the proper
moments. John Flournoy and Spike
Shannon panied this one of the Egans
conSldefaDle by their antics, and Ed
die Wheeler also jolted some.
E. Wheeler will wear M. Kelley's
1nitt on the trip, as the manager is
still carrying his leg around in a cast.
Though accustomed to the other cor
ner of the field, Wheeler has perform
ed like real first disher since NOV
ing to the beginning bag, and should
De able to take care of Kelley's job
until they crack the plaster paris
The Colonies got away first in this
contest but the leaders came right
after them, and the second finished
with the score knotted. Sudor Sullivan
started the scoring, after Odwell had
been stopped in this round Geier's
boot gave him a chance and he scored
on ClymerS single. Clymer got in on
Schriver's single and an infield play.
Schaefer walked in the Saints part
of the round and Higgins beat bunt.
Wheeler laced double over short aft
er Flourney had been stopped, and
Schaefer and Higgins came in with
the tallieS that tied the score.
In the third some loose fielding work.
a base on balls and two singles gave
the Colonies two more. Shannon hit
for three bases and scored on Jack
sons single on the comeback of the
round, but the Saints could not pull UP
ever.
Singles by Schaefer and Higgins
were followed by FleuFnoy's double in
the sixth and put the Saints one to the
good. Schaefer scored the other run
