A Tricky Play.

Dalrymple. the ole. Chicago star, once
won a game by ore of the cleverest
tricks ever pulled off. 1t was in game
against Philadelphia, when the pen
nant fortunes of the team seemed
wayering. The game was close and
went into extra innings with the score
of to s. and both teams fighting for
every inch of ground. The eleventh in
ming began with darkness desc ling
over the field-witt the score still a
tie.
Chicago scored one run and the
Philadelphia crowd, which had the last
bats, was bowling al the umpire to call
the game on account of darkness, but
he refused. and the Quakers We're sent
to bat. Two men were retired and then
a single and double suddenly changed
the aspect of things.
With men on second and third and a
big hitter up, Chicago's chances grew
dim and they began delaying and
fighting for darkness. Still the umpire
was obdurate-and the ball was
pitched. The batter swung. There
was crack and the sphere went flying
out to left center. 1t was lost from
sight in an instant. The crowd ala not
know whether it was a home run or
a line fly.
Two players went tearing towards
the plate. In that instant Dalrymple
stood still, showed both hands above
his head, waited an instant, jerked
them down, stuck something into his
pocket and, turning, ran to the club
house, while the crowd roared over
Chicago's victory.
But in the club house Dial confessed
that he hadn't seen the ball at all,
hadn't the slightest idea ere 1T had
fallen, and that his, entire play OF
catching it was pantomime-wl1ich
fooled everybody except few in the
left field bleachers--who saw the ball
cross the left field fence of the grounds
and fall into the street.
