The Saint Paul globe., 1904-05-29

Greedy Mr. Cantillon intent on making
It three straight cast his piercing optic
over his bender artists until the sparkling
orb rested on the tWirler named Curtss
and recalling the one hit game delivered
bv this swarthy fishing rod, selected him
as a fitting person to heap ignOmy three
fold On the Saints, and thus Joseph of the
red coat made a monumental mistake.
Two home runs, two singles and bunch
of errors in the third and fourth innings
did the work. Score; st. Paul Il, Mil
Waukee 3.
1t was a sad day for Curtiss and one
of great glee for the fans who watched
his chest measurement shrink until the
chesty twirler could have Wriggled
through a doughnut without getting any
grease on his uniform. 1t wasn't that the
Saints hit frequently they only got four,
but when they did land it was like pile
driver on a frog, and the kids outside the
fence had to chase the ball so far that
the game was nearly over when they came
back.
Wheeler came up in the third with the
bases full and slammed one of Curtiss'
cute ones over the right field fence, and
Cantillon had to be held to prevent his
doing bodily harm to himself. Jackson
came up in the fourth with the bases full
once more and drove a nice new bali over
the left field fence, and then Cantillon
had recourse to his smelling salts. In
IleSe TWO innings the SAINTS wore lllI6
troughs in the base line as ten of them
sprinted around the circuit, each contrib
uting a unit to the sum total of the
Brewers discontinue.
cantlIlon Gets Busy.
Cantillon's rage was something beauti
full to see from the incloSed grand stand,
for it is without parallel in the annals
of wrath He fired every man on the
team several times, until his breath gave
out and forced him to think. He chased
Catcher Slattery to the bench and made
CurtiSS hide in a dark corner. He then
yanked Bateman from first and sent him
to replace Curtiss, Kid Spears repose
was cut short and he was forced behind
the mask, while Mckay was sent out to
hold down the initial pillow.
The combination worked out pretty
well, Bateman allowing but four hits and
one run during the rest of the game, but
results. Sessions held the visitors down
to ten hits that were spread apart so
that but three runs all told were scored
against him.
The Saints played an errorless game
In the field and played fast one, too,
as they brought off three double plays.
Schaefer distinguished himself in the sec
ond by bringing down Marcan's line drive
with one hand and spelling hit that
would have been good for a run.
Bemis Peirce made his debut for the
year yesterday and took Sullivan's place
behind the bat, where he acquitted him
self creditably. Jackson and, Wheeler and
bat Scha efer, Stone and Hemphill were
the steady boys for the Brewers.
Manager Kelley reversed the usual Gus
tom OF the Saints and went to bat first
in hopes that luck of the previous two
days would be altered, and this conces-
sion to fate appeared to have the desired
effect.
Jones dug up the grass in front of
Schaefer for a starter and Germany
played with the bali until Jones arrived
at hrst. Chngman sacrificed him to sec
ond, but Jackson and Wheeler spoiled his
work by going out.
Stone Dies at First.
The much hitting Stone was thrown
out by O'Brien and Schaefer made things
look ominous by ripping off a three bag
ger in the left field territory With one
out this condition of affairs looked any
thing but hopeful, and Clark started one
that looked like it was going over the
center field fence. Jones was waiting for
1T, however. and Schafer, who tried to beat
the ball home, arrived too late to score.
o. 'Brien selected four nice ones to leave
alone and walked to first and got second
on passed ball. Kelley put him on third
with a select little sacrifice and Marcan
gave Schaefer a chance to shine The
boss Brewer pulled down the liner and
came very close to doubling OBrien on
third. Peirce retired the side on an easy
roller from Curtiss to Bateman.
PenEell started for the Brewers by pop
ping out TO Marcan. and Hemphill was
passed along to first: Bateman drove hot
grass cutter to Clingman who touched
second and threw Bateman out to Kelley
Sessions led off in the memorable third
with simple mite of a grounder to
Clark. but Clark didn't appear to be able
to get his hands on it until too late.
Jones refused to be tempted by wide ones
and walked and Clingman sacrificed a
second time. Bateman and HemphilI be-
came tangled about first long enough for
Cnngman'S safety. Jackson hit to
Schaefer who caught Clingman on second,
while Sessions scored. Wheeler hit for
a home run bringing in Jones and Jack
son and o Brien and Kelley retired the
side with four runs to the good
The Brewers took a temporary brace in
their half of the third which Wolf started
with a single. Slattery turned his back
on the bail and got hit without getting
hurt. Curtiss sacrificed and Stone brought
them both in with a single. Stone longed
for second and Peirce threw him out and
Schaefer struck at the ball until stopped
retiring the side with two runs.
EVentfu Sixth.
Marcan was first up in the historic
sixth and was retired in short order.
Then came Peirce with a single and
Schaefer made his second error, allowing
sessions to get to first. CurtiSS got reck-
less after a poor throw to second which
put Peirce on third and allowed Jones to
