Runs Started at Jumps.

In the first inning Duffy walked and went forward on Lynch's safe bunt. Both boys took the hot foot and immediately worked a double -barrelled steal to third and second. Vaughan popped out to the pitcher, but Smith rolled an easy one to Womble and Duffy pressed the button.
 In the third the Strikers set off bomb shell and before the dust had settled base on balls, two-base hit a three bagger and an error let in three runs. Slagtown for one time was amazed. The thought of Montgomery getting three runs In cluster and taking the lead was too strong for what they had been igur- ing.
 A short conference was held over in Ba- rontown, and the home guard went at it hammer and tongs to take back the lead They soon had things going, and by stealing what they couldn't get by hit ting. enough runs had been corraled to take back the lead. A two-base hit and two singles allowed the Strikers to tie 1t up In the fifth After that things ran easy until the ninth Nobody could score. In the last half of the last chapter, how ever, Jimmy OBrien pulled off his four base smash, and the fire went out. Thus endeth a sad but satisfactory narrative. The score follows:
