K. OF P. Take the Second Game
7 to 0.

Inability to connect safely with
Johnson curves, who pitched mag
nificent game, aided by nice fielding at
critical moments, gave the victory to
the X. of P. team Saturday afternoon
at Jasper over the Odd Fellows, to 0.
1t was the second game of the series
and the teams now stand tie, the Odd
Fellows having won the first game, 8
to Z. Up to the last half of eighth in
ming only three runs had been scored,
but four more were added by the X. of
P. on hits and errors. Outside of this
inning errors were not responsible for
runs, all being earned.
Nice work was done in the outfield
by both teams, high flies being taken
in repeatedly at critical times, Lee
and Griffith for the X. of P. making
some specially good catches. Tom FOs
ter for the Odd Fellows, also distin-
guished himself with good catches.
MINIS pitched for the Odd Fellows,
and pitched his old time steady game,
ably assisted by DeSabla, Sequachee' S
crack catcher Robertson played a nice
game at first for the |. 0. 0. F., and
Oscar Foster at short did some nice
work, spelling several good hits that
meant runs.
Johnson work in the box was su-
perb, it clearly being the best game he
has ever pitched. He kept the hits
scattered, and few in number, and
felded his position perfectly
