The distinct feature of yesterday af-
ternoon's doubie-header was the whirl-
wind finish of Stahrs men in the last
Inning OF the second game. The Ma
uonals have piled up a greater number
OF scores In one inning than they did
In the lucky seventh" yesterday. but
they have seldom come at a time when
they were more needed
Jack Townsend's pitching easily dis
posed of the Browns in the first game
but nobody expected the Nationals 10
win That second contest after the loose
first inning. Falkepberg passed three
men and allowed as many hits in the
opening session Three steals and the
squeeze play were added to these
and before the smoke had cleared away
nine Browns had been to the bat. five of
whom scored. In the fourth his poor
pitching allowed two more runs, and in
the sixth another brace of tallies
brought the total up to nine.
Batted Howell.
In the meantime the Nationals had
pegged away until they had four scores
to their credit. 1t was getting dark
when Jones walked to the plate in the
seventh. and another inning could not
have been played. Charlie started
things with clean drive to center, and
before the Browns retired the side
twelve men had faced Howell and six
had made the circuit
1T was one of the finest rallies of the
season Jones accomplished the rare
feat of making two safe hits in one
inning. Stahl and Punch Knoll were
also heroes in this round. Jakes swat

tie catcher planted a single into center
which produced two more runs and
tiled the score
The first game was a pitchers battle
between Townsend and Sudhoff, and
Jack had much the better of it, But
for little unsteadiness in the seventh
and eighth innings he would have had
shut-out-
Clever Fielding.
Cassidy did some clever work at
shortstop. accepting sixteen out Of
seventeen chances. Bobby Wallace
was also in the game with several diff
ficult plays. Both Jake Stahl and Tom
Jones made frequent plays at first base
which won applause Jones made one
splendid play in the second when he
got Gleason's throw on Nills grounder
right under the feet of the runner.
There was nothing doing for either
side until the fourth inning. For three
innings not a hit was made off either

single 10 center in the fourth. but was
