slant. he threw up his gloved left hand and
pulled 1t down. For the fraction of a sec
ond the crowd did not realize that the ball
had been caught by Jones. but the center
field crowd commenced to throw up its hats
and cheer and then everybody bounded to
their feet and yelled with glee. Keller was
the first man up in that inning. and his hit
would assuredly have gone for a triple I'M
der the ground rules, placing Patten in a
hole and making run-scoring somewhat
easy.
Nearly Triple Play.
In the ninth inning Manager Stahl came
into prominence by making a sensational
catch of low fly from Chase's bat, getting
the ball but a few inches from the ground.
Two New Workers were on base at the
time, and his catch resulted in double
play, and triple play was only lost
through bad throw to first by Cassidy
after getting the ball from Stahl Anderson
and Conroy had started the inning with
safe hits. and the double play shut off what
appeared to be productive inning for the
visitors.
The New Workers were fortunate in get
ting a good start hanging up three runs in
the first inning. Dougherty hit a grounder
toward right, which Mullen gathered up
nicely. but he threw wide to first and
pulled Stahl off the bag at the instant the
batter's feet struck the canvas. Keller
then drove a liner into right that Stahl
missed by hair. Dougherty going to third.
Elberfeld then followed with a neat sachi-
flee toward first. Dougherty scoring while
he was being put out by Patten. Jimmy
Williams then caught of Patterns out
curves on the end of his bat and it sailed
far out to the left-fieId fence, easy home
run resulting. Big John Anderson followed
with drive into left that went through
Huelsman, the batter reaching second
the error Anderson was nipped at third
trying to steal, and Conroy closed the
inning with fly to Cassaday.
In the fifth inning the Nationals got
their first tally. Cassaday was scraped
with inshoot by Chesbro and walked
to first Kittredge fouled out to Chase,
but Patten tore off the first clean single
of the game, Cassaday going to third.
Jones' hit forced out Patten at second,
but Cassaday crossed the plate while the
out was being made. Jones then tried to
steal second, but Kleinow nailed him with
a good throw to Elberfeld.
The Highlanders scored their last tally
in the sixth inning. After Jones had
pulled down Keelers long fly Elberfeld
walked and Williams flied out to Huels-
man. Anderson then drove a nasty
grounder toward left that Cassidy got
after a hard run. but he was in bad po-
sition and threw poorly to Mullen to
field Elberfeld kept on to third and then
home as Cassaday and Mullen were slow
in relaying the ball in Mullen made a
perfect throw to Kittredge, but the little
catcher was over anxious to touch Fiber

Oh ESBRO A PUZZLE

The base ball season of 1905 received a
splendid sendoff yesterday at American
League Park in the game between the
Nationals and New York Highanders, and
the only drawback to an otherwise joyous
occasion was the defeat of the locals by
crowd, numbering over 5000 began arriv-
ing at the entrance to the park as early as
/ o'clock and when Business Manager
Fowler ordered the gates thrown open at
2 o'clock fully thousand enthusiasts
rushed by the ticket takers in the first five
minutes. From that time on, until we'll
after the game was started people con-
ttnued to pay their way and dash into the
field grandstand to get only glimpse
of the contest. By o'clock the bleacher
seats were packed, and the overflow to the
field began. These patrons were bubbling
over with enthusiasm, and would break
out into cheers at the slightest provocation,
demonstrating their glee that the base ball
season had actually arrived and that they

of which they had been gossiping for the

When the band started its concert shortly
after 3 o'clock the park was almost filled
and the music added to the pleasure of the
occasion. Shortly before o clock the band
went to the clubhouse, lined up with the
players of the Highlanders and Nationals
IN the rear, and then marched out on the
field TO the grand acclaim of the multitude

OTHER GAMES.
Athletics Beat Champions.

The American League season opened at
Philadelphia yesterday with a victory for
the home club, Boston being defeated by
the score of ) to >. Owing to the crowd,
which overlooked into the field, ground
rule was necessary. The usual tlag-raising
function was participated in by both teams
and the first ball was thrown out by Mayor
Weaver.
Young and Bender were the opposing
pitchers, and the latter, up TO the last
inning. allowed but two hits. In the ninth
Bender weakened and allowed two doubles
and gave four bases on balls, forcing in
run. With three men on bases he struck
the last man out and saved the game. Pres
ident Johnson was a spectator. Attendance

players stood out in bold relief and made
pretty picture. Lucky the mascot
brought up the rear with bat big as
himself and a players mitt, and came in
for great deal of attention, the little fell
low being about the proudest boy on the
grounds. At the conclusion of the parade
tice, and later on the Nationals trotted out
for preliminary work, every move of the
men being watched closely and criticised
from every angle.
Down in the boxes many notable faces
could be seen-veterans of the sport who
had not been to ball game for years-the
christening of the team Nationals" acting
as a magnet to draw them out.
New York's Delegation.
The New Yorks were not without friends,
big delegation reaching the city at noon
and helping to swell the multitude at the
park. Joseph Gordon, president of the
Highlanders, headed the delegation of New
York ''rooters,' other members of the party
being: Robert C. Mccormick, Hector
Clems, William E. Hills, Charles A. Star
son, M. c. KATE, George Wetlaufer Louis
Herself, Ed. Noonan. John n. Ostrander,
George Demearie, Martin Kirby. Frank
]. Hutchinson, Thomas Davis. Edward
SlOsson. George e Mitchell, Daniel O'Don-
nell, w: NJ X. Olcott, George w. Grant,
Doc McDonough, Max Stein. Ed. Arm
strong, Charles T. johnson and Arthur
kunlfuss.
Treasurer Frank Farrell fully anticipated
coming over to witness the game, but his
interests in the racing line are SO large and
important at the Aqueduct race track,
which opens this afternoon, that he decided
to remain in New York. and wired his re-
grets to President Noyes.
While the fans were thankful that the
sun was shining on their beloved sport the
weather was anything but pleasant to sit
through an afternoon in the open. The rain
at noon chilled the atmosphere to such an
extent as to make overcoatS almost a ne
cessity, and doubtless kept several thon-
sands away from the game for fear OF
penumonia and other ills.
1t was the local arrangements intention
to have Senator German throw out the ball
to start the game, as he was the most
prominent representative of the old time
Nationals, but at the last moment he was
called out of town on extremely important
business, so that he had to forego the
pleasure. Commissioner West was then
decided upon to offcate at this important
function, but he got wind of the affair in
some way and kept out of sight until the
contest was under way. AS a result Catcher
kittredge took the ball from Umpire Con-
nollys hand and the game was started
without any preliminary trimmings
Getting down to the game itself it was
one of the most enjoyable contests mag

discomfort over the result when the last

signs of nervousness at first, natural in
youngsters facing an aggregation of the
Highlanders reputation for the first time,
but after a couple of innings this wore
off. and the visitors had to keep on their
tiptOeS all the rest of the route to hold on
to the lead gained in the first inning. To
Chesbro's great pitching alone New York
can ascrfbe it's victory. He was almost
unhittable from start to finish. and his
work was of the phenomenal order. Pitch
er Patten and Outfielder Cassaday's sin
ternoon, the other five hits being of the
scratch order.
Patten Did Fairly Well.
Patten pitched fairly good game for
him, and it claSse up high when his sup
port is considered. The unfortunate throw
of Mullin at the opening of the game
may have changed the complexion of af-
fairs entirely but errors are part of the
game. and postmortems are only interest
ing when they tell of victories.
From a fielding point of Jew the Ma
tionals furnished all the fireworks. three
plays developing during the nine innings,
each one being worth the price of admis-
sion alone, while the New Workers. had
an easy time 'on account of the great
twrling of Chesbro.
Third Baseman Hunter Hill, in addition
to playing a beautiful game throughout,
pulled off a stunt in the third inning that
brought everybody in the stands to their
feet with cheers of approval while the
fans in the outfeld danced with JOY
Willie Keller, who is undoubtedly one of
the best hunters and fastest runners in
the business, dropped the ball down in
front of the plate. the sphere stopping not
more than two yards from the batters
box. He and Hill were on their toes as
soon as the ball hit the bat, the one speed
ing for first and the other for the little
white sphere. Like flash Hill darted up,
grasped the ball in one hand and with his
body and head hanging over toward the
ground. threw the sphere as straight as
hands, nipping Keeler by a step. Plays
Of this sort are pulled off frequently on
slow runners, who are trying to sacrifice,
but it is a ten to one shot that Wee
Willie" will not be caught again this sea-
son on a similar play. When the clever
little outfielder saw that he was out he
turned to Stahl and remarked:
Hunter appears to be going well to-
day
In the sixth inning Keeler again bound
ed into the lime light the victim of
another sensational play, Centrefielder
Jones this time robbilg the little man
of another apparently safe hIt. Keller met
one of Patterns outcurves on the end of
his bat and sent it flying toward the
center field crowd.
The hit took Jones by surprise. as he was
playing well in, but he nevertheless turned
his back to the ball dug his toes into the
ground and started after that ball. He ran
fully fifty feet when ball came up to him
and was sailing over his head at the in

field. and an inglorious muff resulted. Con-
roy's fly to Stahl closed the inning
In the ninth matters looked good for the
Nationals for few minutes, one run
being scored, but Chesbro put on addition
al steam and stopped the game at its most
promising point. Stahl led of with
grounded to Elberfeld and was safe on
the latter's poor throw to Chase. Huels-
man flied to Williams and Cassidy

saday pulled off the second clean hit of
the game, a drive over second on which

ing out Cassaday at second and the crowd
rushed on the field.

RAREsT SHAKESPEARE FOUND.
Disputed 15s5th Edition Of Titus An
dronicus'' Discovered in Sweden.

One of the most interesting ro-
mances in literature has just been an
nounced. 1t is nothing less than the
discovery in the house of a country
man in Sweden of an almost perfect
1884 quarto of Shakeespeade's Titus
Andronicus' The very existence OF
this edition has hitherto been dis
credited.
In Arber's transcript of the regis
ters Of the stationers of London the
edition. is recorded, but most biblio-
graphers in the absence of proof. re-
garded it as sham entry. The only
other evidence is in Langbaine's D-a-
matte Poetry. 1891, in which it is
stated that Titus -Andronicus was
first printed in quarto in London in
1894. adding that no copy survived OF
that edition; yet a London bibliogcaph
er heard on December Z from the Ii
brarian Of the Lund University wfo
had been intrusted With the care OF
the extraordinary find above described.
The only blemish in the Quarto IS
that about the words have been erased
from the text Assuming that it is
genuine the photographer thinks it
will probably come to England and be
sold at auction at Sothteby's where it
will probably fetch from 500 pounds
to 1000 pounds. He expresses regret
that the British Museum is unable to
afford TO buy the rare volume. Others
suggest that the quarto will bring
much bigger price probably 1000
to 5000 pounds.

Mr.. r. F. DuBose, of Mayesville,
who came over to spend Sunday in the
city, met with serious accident, re-
sulting in the loss of his left kand, that
evening when he started to board the

swing himself aboard he tripped, lost
his hold on the railing and fell with
the upper part Of his body on the rail.
Realizing his desperate danger he
made strenuous effort to roll out OF

of mind and quickness saved his life,
but the wheels caught his left hand
and passed over it. The hand was so
badly crushed thal, it had to be ampu-
tated at the wrist. The operation was
