Deep Gloom Settles OUer the
Entire Team, Which Is
Stunned by the NeSvs of
the Big FelloSU' S UntfmeLy
Death.
Senators Are Playing Great
Ball TuSt Wo4v, and the
Present Arrangement OF
the Team Is the Best
Yet.

Poor old Delehanty! What an untimely
end for one who has shone so brilliantly
in the baseball armament for the past
decade.
The sad story of his fatal plunge into
the dark and turbulent waters of The
cruel Niagara, as found in another
column of this issue. came as a severe
shock to his team mates and a host Of
friends in this city. as well as all over
the country. Despite his dilatory tao
tics here this year. he had thousands OF
friends who were only too willing to
overlook his faults when that wagon
tongue willow of his began to work.
A deep gloom has settled over the en-
tire club. Tom LOTUS is virtually
stunned by the tragedy. while all Of
his players spent the morning
at the ball park, sitting about in
groups and discussing the sad intelli-
gence. All believe that the man who
plunged through the bridge was Dele
hanty beyond a doubt with the excep-
ton Of Jimmy Ryan, who. perhaps was
his closest friend. Jimmy simply says.
Il must have more proof"
The impression that the big fellow"
was the victim Of foul play steadily
gains credence. and one and all Of tho
members Of the club scoff at the idea of
suicide or an accidental plunge.
Delehanty had a heart in him as big
as all out doors.
He was quick and impulsive, easily
aroused. yet quick to forgive. He was
generous to a fault. and as ingenious as
a child. and. according to his wife, a
good husband and fond father.
His death will be mourned by thous-
ands and thousands Of lovers Of baseball
the world over who recognized in him
the greatest batsmar OF the age.

The North Carolina Avenue team took
yesterdays game from the Second Bap-

the Baptists. but the North Carolina
Avenue fellows seemed TO like his

plays netted them ten runs in the first

Later he was replaced by Babson, who
pitched a fairly good game
Manager Dodge's team was blanked in
but two innings, the second and sew
enth. and when It finally became too
dark TO play they had gathered in TWEEN
ty-one runs.
Although beaten in the first session,
the Second Baptist played gamely. Kerr
hit the first three men up. when he
was replaced by King. The first ball be
tossed in hit Babson in the back. forcing
in run. However, Dudley and Ritter
famed and Milstead forced Babson at
second. One. two, three was the order
in the second. In the third two singles
and a two-bagger sent Suit over the
plate. Nothing doing in the next three.
but in their last turn at bat Henderson
and Holland singled and Suit sent them
home with a three sacker. Suit scored
on Babson's sacrifice. King struck out
