 Dougherty was another disappointment. His head piece must have been wool gathering.
 Lem Bailey's work with the indicator was unusually good and only one kick was registered during the game.
 The same batting order of yesterday will be observed by both teams this af- ternoon, the last game with Chicago.
 Game in Detail.
 Molesworth led of with hit down to Callahan who promptly booted it, Molly landing safely on the initial bag
 Schwartz then made his initial bow to Montgomery crowd by neat sacrifice, bunting down to Dougherty who shot it to second trying to stave off Moles- worth The speedy base runner was too swift for him, however, and got the bag safe Schwartz went to first all right on the play.

 lansing hit long fly out to right field. There were two out and if Green had pulled that fly ball down it would have been all over for little Willie as far as the Pretzels were concerned. There are only two letters in that word 'if'-it is one of the shortest and simplest words ever coined by Mir. Webster. but occa- sionally it is a most momentous word. That word was ''it' yesterday by several barrelfulls, and upon It's significance the pendulum of victory by wide margin swung for the PretZels. Whether Green misjudged the fly or not is immaterlsl. The material part of this story Is that he dropped 1t and Molesworth. Delehanty and Link Stickney poured over the plate with three great big tallies
 John Whitaker wound up the inning ny hitting down to George Davis and going out at first. The score was and m favor of "we'uns." and Green had did It." Holmes was the first man of the White SoX to face Molly and he hit one down | to short which Delehanty smothered and l shot over to Whitaker. And MT. Holmes returned to the bench.

PRETZELS TOOK FIRST
 GAME FROM CHICAGOANS
Large Crowd Saw First Baseball Contest of the Season at Oak Park---ScOrc
 Was 8tO4.

The first baseball game of the season, between Montgomery and the Chicago team of the American League, resulted in a victory for Stickney's Pretzels.
 If anybody had hinted at such an out come of yesterdays game that individual would have been put down as a blither- | ing idiot with hay instead of brains in his top-piece. Beat the White Sox? Wh | 1t was unheard of, and yet that is just what happened. q With hardly weeks practice and tho I team working together for the first time, l the Pretzels played the big Seaguers of ] their feet. In batting, fielding and gen. eral all-around work the locals showed Comiskey's crowd the way to play base ball. though it was a stifi1sh fight all the way through. The crowd in attendance was large, and very early in the afternoon the bleach CTS were packed to beyond their capac- ity. It was coolly critical crowd at first. but gradually the sharp. rhythmic team work uncorked big box of enthu- siastic praise
 But two local pitchers worked-Noily and Deaver-but this was more than enough for the "siuggers" of Chicago. Nollys work was a revelation In nearly six innings but five hits and four runs were made off him, his hits being widely scattered and only one run of the four being earned. This speaks eloquentIy of the box work: Only twice did Molly send a man to base on balls. and the Chicago crowd opened their eyes in amazement
 Denver made good with the crowd equally and fin the three and a half in- nirgs that he pitched one hit one run anG one base on balls was his record.
 Delehanty hit we'll getting two of the seven hits. but his three errors nut some what of bad taste in the mouths of the fans.
 It Is altogether too early to criticise This is the first game that the PretzeIs nave been together in and their showing yesterday was remarkable Schwartz played a brilliant game, getting one hit one put-out and three assists without n error, while lansing had six assists and couple of errors. Whitaker did well on first, but he makes the mistake or standing directly on the bag when n runner is going down to first After the Jones Incident yesterday however, he Will perhaps think twice before repeat ing the mistake.
 Not an error was made in the outfield Durrett got two of the hits and Stickney one while Molesworth accepted his two chances perfectly
 The White Sox seemed to get on a case or rattles after Greens error in the first inning. letting in three runs and clinch- ing the game

out by Dougherty few moments later Molesworth ended it by dropping ioul fly into Dundon's paws. In the last half Molly let Sullivan walk but evened up by striking Jones out.
 In the excitement Harry Manners rip ped big hole in his pants ana stood Dlushing in helpless confusion, the mem bers of both teams rushing in with alarm and surrounding the gritty little catcher who with a rush darted for the dressing room where the rent as well as Chesty made good
 Dundon hit to Molly who made the amateurtsh mistake of fielding 1t to Whitaker instead of to Schwartz and Sullivan sprinted down to second. No damage was done, however, for Molly got Berry's hit and threw him out at hrst, ending the inning.
 Schwartz was out on a hit to Davis in the first of the third and Durrett on a fly to Dundon. Delehanty hit to Davis who made another wild throw. Link Stickney walked to the plate. Dougherty sent one over. There was resounding crash. Jones and Green away out in the lot were madlv chasing a little round object that, with the speed of Kansas cyclone. was tearing toward the center fence. In the meantime Delehanty and Sttckney were tearing around the bags and chasing each other over the plate before the runaway ball was captured and returned to the infeld~- 1t was one of the cleanest home runs ever seen. Not in the air but a terrific line drive. and to home boy belonged the honor of making 1t.
 The score was now and 0. and the bleachers were feeling like a man sitting under an electric fan and hunting for the bottom of a stein on hot summers afternoon.
 In the last half Dougherty hit to Dele hanty, who booted 1t. but when Holmes hit to second, Schwartz tossed 1t to nele- hanty, covering the bag, and Dougherty was out at second.
 Frank shot the ball to Whitaker and 1t looked pretty much like fast double had been made. It was close, but Lem thought the runner got the bag before the ball. and Holmes was called safe Green hit to Molly and beat 1t out. but Callahan was out on hit to Whitaker and Davis struck out
 Owens went in the box in the fourth in- ming. Manners sent fly to right, Green pulling 1t down this time. Molly and Molesworth struck out in succession.
 Sullivan hit to Lansing, who threw low and the runner was safe, Jones going safe on hit to Delehahty.
 Dundon hit a foul back of first. and Whitaker got 1t after a hard run, Berry going out on hit to lansing; Owens lined out a clean hit and Jones tallied, Holmes ending 1t with a fly to Stickney.
 Schwartz was out on a hit to Dundon in the fifth Durrett smashed out a long drive to right through an opening that Sullivan. had left by playing too wide or first base.
 Delehanty followed with another drivo In the same place, Durrett scampering round to third.

 Washington, March 29-The Secretary of the Interior today sent to the Senate a communication in response to Senator Overman's resolution directing the Secre- tary to furnish the Senate a copy of the order issued by the Department enlarg- [ Ing the pension act of June 27, 1890, and amendments as to the disabilities of ap- plicants for pensions and to report by what amount the order will increase pen sions annually.
 In regard to the increase of pension ap- propriations needed to carry the order into effect, the Secretary gives the esti- mate of the Acting Commissioner of Pen sions, made public with the order of March l5, 1904. A review of the admins tratcu of pension laws is given by Sec Petary Hitchcock, in the course of which he submits the precedents for the pur- pose of showing that the order referred to is clearly within executive authority and in conformity with existing laws and methods which heretofore prevailed in its administration.
 Secretary Hitchcock says:

Until the eighth ln- ming the score stood a tie. but at this juncture, for the first time, the local lads got their eye on the ball and batted out five runs and victory. As a whole. the game proved a disappointment to the supporters of the Crimson and White. as 1t revealed a team lacking considerably In hitting qualities. However, the aggrc- gation that came up from Marion is far above the average preparatory school class. For the visitors Hannon at short.
