The Saints deposed the Ohioan usurpers
yesterday in two merry go-round events,
in which the Saints did most of the going
round, and when the duplex occasion clos
ed the Sanity crew respesed once more on
the top perch. Both games were COM
paratively simple, and inasmuch as 1t
made four straight, Manager Clymer will
have to pay no excess baggage on his VIC
tories this trip. Scores, ST. Paul S, Co

1t was a case of herding the hits to-
gether and letting go of them all at once
that won. In the first delightful affair the
visitors hit Ferguson safely as often as
the Saints hit Olmsted but they came
along singly or in pairs and generally
weren't numerous enough to become dan
gerously effective.
~ Slagle did the Swimming in the second
game and repeated his performance in
Minneapolis ON the morning of the Fourth
Two singles was all Slagle had to regret,
and neither of these amounted to any
thing. One came in the first inning, the
other in the second. He was little short
of control at one time, and to this shortage
is due the sole run accumulated by the
ambitious laddes from Columbus. On this
full stock and got out of the trouble with
the single run. and Wheeler's error con-
tributed somewhat.
OlmSted pitched the first game for Co
lumbus and was in poor physical condi-
ton after the first few innings His face
was distorted with pain every time he
pitched the ball. but he stuck to it until
two men were out in the eighth and then
sank to his knees on the rubber. Glendon

passes counted for anything in the scor-
ing. -"'t
Both Field Fast
Fast and clean fielding ON both sides
marked the first game. In the eighth
Kelley made a beautiful one-hand catch of
line drive by Friel and O'Brien covered
all kinds Of territory after fast ones. Jones
started out by allowing three rollers to get
more or less away from far enough to
convince the base runner that he was en-
Z titled to another. In each instance this
conviction proved wrong, as Jones would
recover the ball in time to effect a put
out. In the eighth inning he sprained his
ankle sliding to second and this affected
his playing in the second game.
Flournoy made his first appearance in
the uniform of the Saints, and delivered
the goods from the jump off. He got one
game and two hits out of four times at
bat in the second.
Wheeler was the bright particular star
with the stick yesterday, and the things
that he did to .Olmsted and Glendon are
tirst game and three singles and double
In the second, or six hits out of nine times
up IN one day. Kelley also did some bat
Jng, getting two hits out of twice up in
the first and two out of three times up in
the second.

and for a few moments innings went

hardly see them. Davis went out to
