livery. both coming In the last inning. and

work harder.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUE.
TEAM STANDING.
Foundry Smothered the Christians.

Another goose egg was the portion of The
Christian brothers yesterday afternoon,
Foundry winning by the score of IA to 0.
There is some talk of strengthening the
poor-helding. weak-hitting taiI-enders. and
this matter will be considered by the board
at an early date.
1t was mot yet" yesterday. However,
the patrons Of the games hope 1t will BE

That first inning was one of the most
mfrth-provoking trayesties on the game
ever seen on a local diamond. Foundry,
smart1ng under the unexpected defeat by
the Fifth, began the game hot for revenge
ana the under dog In the league got his
troubles In huge chunks. Every member
or the Foundry team jumped on the See
ing Ninth street aeroplane." and seven Of
them took round trip tickets. Bryan and
Bishop going the circuit twice.
The Ninth street boys were In the game
at times, but were so busy making errors
that they had no time for run-getting.
The crowd enjoyed the game. When It
became evident that Foundry could score
as they pleased and that the brothers could
do nothing with Hutchinson's benders the
fans amused themselves with watching
Foundrys efforts to get out, and with won
dering who would make the first hit Off
Hutch" 1t is doubtful If a better team
than Ninth could have done much with
Foundry's pitcher. Hutch had every
thing and went the full seven innings with
out allowing a hit.
Foundry found both King and Langley
easy and banged the ball. King leading with
single and two doubles Holman and WILL
son edited the fans with some acrobatic
feats in outflelding. both coming troopers
trying for long hits. Holman backed up
against post in center and gathered
punches OF red earth rafting down the
enbankment.
Had Foundry put forth her best efforts
they would probably have established
record for runs. but they played for
game against darkness. and courted retire
ment after the first inning.
