Poor Senators. theirs is indeed a hard

Their luck was so poor that when VIC
tory was handed 10 them on a plate
somebody came along and knocked the
plate out of Chieago's proferinF hand.
This sad tale is rendered necessary by
the fact that the young men Dunkle and
Mason were in the box. If ever a man
was jumped on and smitten hip and
thigh by a relentless enemy it was Dun
kle in that second inning Five hits
for total of three runs were made of
him. No matter what kind of a ball he
threw it was easy money for the White
