Several of us were so f1abergasted at
the unparalleled ease with which our
patched-up squad of athletes picked
Mr.. Chowchow and the other eight va
rieties that we got up and wandered
away without our umbrellas.
The baseball conduct of these Path
finders is either so good or so bad as
to temporarily dethrone reason and
send fanatics home in a staggering
reverie. Something should be done
at once to regulate matters, as Mr.. ].
Mackay has something else to do be-
sides gather up souvenirs in the grand
stand.
We started off winning right in first
half with the assistance of some hits
and other troubles. After Mr.. Chow
chow had let two escape to first on
poorly located balls, he allowed two
nice ones to be uncorked by Messrs.
D. Mulaney and R. Kennedy
Mr.. Jack spratt, who eats no fat,
nor has he any to spare, doomed UP
like side show stout man in the
fourth, and sent one through without
relay to the center field fence. He
painted on third just long enough to
hitch up his pants and then finished
the journey homeward on Miller's
timely punch by short.
Scored Three More Runs.
Null had intended that this should
be one inning game. but when he saw
there was no necessity to stir the kali
son1ine box any longer he sent all
hands to the front with full charges
and three more gander legs tom-tom-
med across the pan in the fifth.
In this busy fifth General Grant was
still much elated over the healthy biff
second period, and he waited just long
enough TO get free passage. After Big
Dan had skied out to center. Bench
legged Billy hammered so hard to Bus
sey that the latter gent booted and
Thatcher went TO second while Billy
caught his second wind at the initial
bag.
There was some cheering from the
six hundred when Buddy Yancy grasp
ed the lamrod. spat on his fins and
ambled over in front of Mr.. Roth He
did what the major portion of those
assembled desired him to do, spanking
one hard across second, Thatcher scor-
ing and Kidlets going to third. Wee
Willy walked home on Mulls simple
single and Null meandered down the
home path on r. Kennedys same va
riety as the first two.
New Man on Third.
With two out in the first half of
the ninth, Mr. TRULY was up, and as
there was no hit the people arose and
went home.
There was new face in the mid
die of the infield quartette. Mr.. Rhodes.
successor TO J. Kennedy. He filled the
bill creditably, but the 900 was lit
tie leary of giving him any salve after
the frequent disappointments in the
last short while
There was to have been another new
face. that of Mr.. Thomas Smith of
Nashville, but Tommy made the mis-
take of performing too well just be-
fore he was to be unclaimed at Nash
Vile. He may join us later.
Thatcher was working just middling
easy, exhibiting the saw buck to no
less than nine of the visiting afh-
letes. Mr.. Chowchow was also doing
some clever work with his whizzers,
and while he was pretty good from
the start, ne became truly spectacular
in the sixth when he removed his un-
dershirt. The garment would contain
no more moisture so Pickles removed
1t to give him greater freedom OF
movement.
Passing of the Undershirt.
Now witness what followed the pass.
ing of the undershirt. In the sixth
Mr.. Chowchow caused three Mullets In
row to resume their seats with mar,
a try for first. He wiffed Thatcher
and Rhodes and let OBren with q

From then on 1t was one, two. thre,
and out, and Willy Con Strouthers al
once gra bbed the dangling carmen
from the bleacher fence and swor,
he would rend IL in twain befor,
Pickles should wear it in another base
ball contest
