The town team defeated the cadets
of the Military Institute, four to one,
in clean game of base ball at Amuse
ment Park yesterday afternoon. The
feature of the afternoon was the
league-like manner in which the play
ers conducted themselves throughout
the exhibition, refraining from any
wrangling and stepping up to the bat
with a rapidity that cut half hour
from the record of the two preceding
games of these teams.
Although the score was low and the
records made were good by both
teams, the game was not as interest
ing as the critical fan demands. The
town boys made three scores in the
first inning, and they never lost the
lead What the lovers of excitement
were wishing for was that the cadets
would run in a few, ito make things
interesting" as was heard in the
grand stand. This did not happen,
and the fans had 10 satisfy them
selves with the clever playing of both
teams.
In the first half of the first inning,
with one man out, Webster got a
base on balls Crowel bunted, but
nit the ball little popsap to pitcher,
wno easily made a double, retiring
the side. In their half of the first,
with two men out, the town boys
made three runs, like this: Grissitt
was hit by the pitcher, Wilson got
two-bagger, st. John got a single and
Leland hit for two bases. Then Cas-
ter flew out to center, letting Leland
die on third, where ne had run on an
error at that station.
The cadets made their only run in
the fourth, when Webster got down
ON an error in the box and made the
rest of the circuit through the assist
ance of two more errors.
The town team scored again in the
fifth, when Reeves swatted a terrific
hit over the home-run fence.
A peculiar feature of the game was
that in six different innings the ca
diets had only three men to face the
pitcher. none of them reaching first
except one on base on balls. and
he was put out on Reeves double
play This SHOWS close, hard playing
on the part of the town team. but it
should also be noted in justice to the
cadets that they were decidedly un-
lucky in hitting the ball into the
hands of fielders.
Wynne was on the firing line for
the cadets and struck out eight, hit
three and allowed eight hits. Reeves
pitched for Roswell, striking out IL,
passing two and allowing but two
hits, a record hard to beat. Reeves
took pardonable pride in the fact that
he struck out once the Institutes cap
tain, who has shown himself to be
batter of the first order and had not
Yet tanned the air.
Baker, the new public stenograpn-
er, was given a try-out as umpire. His
decisions were satisfactory beyond
the average, but he showed a dispo-
sition 20 discuss his rulings that pro-
claims him player rather than an
habftual Jump"
Both captains, Wynne and Leland,
had made an agreement not to dis
pute the decisions OF the umpire, and
they held their men in check 10 the
game ON record. At times the drop
ping of pin could have been heard
all over the ground. There was only

 was sent to the penitentiary through 1 the clever work of Pinkerton. The man had been the head of a notorious | gang Of criminals in Indiana They i had operated around Seymour. Pink erton found that he also was with the 1 robbery of an express car in Seymour. | Pinkerton found that he was also wanted in Clinton County for the rob- bery of the county treasury.
 Pinkerton decoyed Reno to the de pot at Seymour, where the suspect
 expected to meet friend, but as the | train pulled out the dectective and a companion lifted him into a coach and Reno was riding toward Missouri. He 1 was sent to the penitentiary and stayed there until Lieutenant Govern or Johnson pardoned him a;,er fif- teen years imprisonment.
 Robert Pinkerton was closely con- nected with the capture of Russell and Thompson, eXpress-car robbers He also figured in the cases of Levi and Hillory Harrington, brothers. Hill lCry fell off a steamer into the Miss issippi while in custody of William A. P1nkerton and Levi, while in Union City, Tenn, having been landed there 1 by Robert, was killed by a mob.
 In 1875 Pinkerton sent a bogus love letter to George V. Cobb, a money clerk, and decoyed him to New York, supposedly to see his lady love, but in reality to walk into Pinkertons s arms. Cobb, when imprisoned in the Leudlow street jail, made a full con- feCCig1 pf tba

 Only once, so far as known, did Bob" Pinkerton's diagnosis of a case prove wrong. and that was in the hold up of a Frisco train at Pacific, Mo, as a result of which the Adams Ex- press company was sued for false ar rest and Imprisonment by Messenger Fotheringham. Robert PinkeTton was convinced FOtheringham knew some thing of the natter, and had him ar rested. The mystery was cleared up later by a St. Louis newspaper man, now dead, who chanced on one of the robbers while walking through Hop Alley.
 The newspaper man saw money be- ing spent layishly, and his supicions were aroused. He cornered the man and asked him where rthe others were" The man broke down and confessed and was turned over to Pinkerrton. Fotheringham was exon erated.
 Robert A. Pinkerton is survived by a son, Allan. assistant manager of an Eastern branch, and two daughters.

CAREER OF R. A. PINKERTON

Robert Allan Pinkerton, principal of the Eastern branch of the Pinkerton detective service, who died last Mon, day on board the liner Bremen, in midocean. while on his way to Europe in search of health, was we'll known in the Southwest. where he worked on several big crimes.
 NF. Pinkerton was associated in the business with his brother, William A. Pinkerton, who is at the head of the service.
 Pinkerton was known as the Ches- terfield of the life-work chosen by himself and his noted father, Allan PinkeTton, founder of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, of Chica- go. His skill lay not so much in bounding of criminals-although oft en he achieved much success in that line-as in scheming and laying traps for the crooks.
 Bob" Pinkerton was born in 1S4S in Dundee, H., where the career of his father began. The elder Allan was a determined Scotchman. Dur ing the Civil War he was chief of the
 
 sonal bodyguard of Abraham Lincoln. He had control of the spy system in and around Richmond The service bearing his name had been started ten years prior to that. when Bob" was still a baby. Bob" started in the detective Business at the age of 16, building up a reputation for alert ness and cleveTness in the office of G. H. Thiel, a St. Louis detective.
 A little later he entered his fathers service as superintendent of the New York office.
 One instance of Robert A. Pinker- tons capacity for remembering faces and men which was brought close home to the people of St Louis. was in his work on the Rudolph Collins case. When Bill Rudolph, after the Union, Mo, bank robbery, had escap- ed from the St. Louis jail, and deceiv- ing some of the most famous detec- tives of the time, under an assumed name was sent to a Southwestern penitentiary, it was R. A. Pinkerton who identified him. Rudolph, or his partner. Collins had killed Schumach- CT, a Pinkerton. The case resulted in the conviction and execution of both men.
 The achievements of Robert Pinker- ton in Missouri were numerous. Once, in making an attempt to land his man, he was detained by the police Of the town in which he was working, who promptly locked him up for Kidnapping, not knowing who he was.
 Pinkerton was systematic. He fol- followed a course more or less defi- mite in his own mind, and much as a criminal reasons how a detective will trail him and makes his plans accord ingly, Pinkerton speculatcd as to how a crook would act. This system of procedure was nearly always effec- tive.
