BASEBALL GAME YESTERDAY.
About the hottest baseball game that
was seen this year, thus far was that
played by the Plumbers and the Team
sters at Crescent Park.
In the game were many stars, several
planets and several that were neither one

while others say that they did not. At
any rate II was decided yesterday that
the Plumbers should win and win they

however and had they not gotten the
lead in the first inning or so the tale
might have been differently told.
The teams battled for a purse of s25
and IL was me for the big slice all
the way to the end ot the game.
The Teamsters had long lanl<y Denny

twlrler Dennie used to do some semi
professional work and he had his arm

team with a recklessness that would do
credit to any Of the Eastern League slab
men.
Almost every time Denny's long arm
would swing aroung tho umpire would
call strike and the Plumber would rub
his eyes. He had a twist on the curves
that would send a shiver through every
man TO face him and he fairly seemed to
