rerrine,s clever work.

Mig Perrine the yOungSter from Kan
sas City. showed up TO advantage, both
in the field and at the bat. The first two
times up he few out TO right field. The
next time he faced the pitcher there
were two down, and it appeared as
though the Nationals were doomed TO
coat OF whitewash. but he came to the
rescue by lifting a fly 10 right center.
Both Hoffman and Keeler went after the
ball but instead Of one or the other at
tempting 20 catch il, they stood by and
let It fall safe Then Blankenship came
along with his slow hopper which went
for a hit. and Hughes followed with ii
double into the crowd scoring Perrine
Perrine had five fielding chances and he
handled each one OF them in perfect fash
ion. His last opportunity came In the
closing round, when MoTiarity hit a liner
about two yards to the left of second
base Perrine went after IL, succeeded in
scooping it up with one hand, recovered
himself quickly, aud whipped the ball to
a foot. Il was the prettiest fielding play
OF the day
Bob Ganley. the other newcomer. did
nothing Of especial note. either af1eld
or in the batting line, but he handles
himself well and should be able TO retain
his position IN right field.
The game early evolved Itself into a
duel between the pitchers-Al Orth and
Tom Hughes, in which the former had
slightly the better of the battle. Both
twirlers had exceptionally good control
for this time of the year. each giving
only one base on balls, and up TO the
fourth inning, there was little 10 choose
between the two men. In the fourth,
however. the Yankees found Hughes for
four hits including a triple and a double,
which. coupled with base on balls,
netted the pair Of tallles that won the
game Hughes famed five batters. while
three were struck out by OFth While he
lost, the elongated Washington twirler de-
rived SOME satisfaction from the fact that
he had Willie Keeier completely at his
mercy Not once was the tiny right
fielder able TO get the ball past the infield.

performed the rare feat OF striking Keeler

DARTMOUTH DEFEATS MIDDIES
Triple Play in Eighth Inning Is
Feature of the Game.


Annapolis, Nd April 1.-THE Dart
mouth baseball team took the Annapo-
lis midshipmen into camp here to-day
by the score of s to =. Although both
teams made several errors, the game
was quite interesting. Van Auken
pitched fairly well for Annapolis. and.
while the visitors got nine hits. they
came in scattering quantities. 1t was
the usual slow and erratic work Of the
middies in the field that was responsible
for most of the runs.
Glaze, captain of Dartmouth's foot
ball team last fall. was on the rubber
for five innings and pitched effective
ball. but Hazleton, who succeeded him,
did not display as good form.
The feature of the game was a fast
triple play executed by Norton. Schil-
mier. and Richardson. Of Dartmouth 1t
was made in the eighth inning when
the mi6dies had tailed one run and
the bases were filled. with none out
and everything looked favorable for al
least two or three more runs.

Washington has considerably stronger
club than represented this city last year
While the personnel remains practically
the same, there being only three new
faces i'm the lineup, the men play better
together and show possibilities Of de
veloping into a fairly strong aggregation.
Several times In Yesterdays contest
smooth team work saved the outfit. where
some slp-up might have resulted in runs
for New York. and only once during the
game was there au error OF omission
that resulted in an advantage for the
Highlanders. In the fifth inning Hof-
man, after being hit by the pitcher, stole
second base. while Perrine and Sehlafiy
stood aside expecting each other 10 cover
the bagI Blankenship was in the position
to snap the ball to the base, but as there
was TO one ready TO receive she throw ne
held the ball and was charged with the
only stolen base which the Yankees sue
ceeded in getting away with during the
game Aside from this oversight. the
teamwork Of the whole club was good.
Whenever a throw was made SOME one
backed up the receiver, and once when
Hughes made a quick throw TO the first
base 10 catch runner mapping, the ball
went wide OF the mark, but Schlafiy was
-the-SPOt ana held the runner
on the base.

DAVENPORT BODY

Delegates Attend Tri-City Labor Con

Found a New Organ.

At the meeting of the Tri-City Labor
congress last evening at the Industrial
Home building, three delegates from
the Davenport Trades and Labor as
sembly were present, the first time in
some years that the Davenport body
has been represented at the meeting
of the congress. The congress elected
five delegates to attend the next meet
ing of the Davenport body. This ex-
change of courtesies is along the line
of the movement for a consolidation of
the two organizations.
At last evenings session steps were
taken toward the founding of a new
official organ for the congress, and to
this end a resolution was adopted sew
ering the connection of the congress
with the Tri-City Unionist. The new
organ, it is understood, will be con-
Quoted by the congress, and will be
started in the near future.

of the board of local improvements, of
Joshua Hasselquist as commissioner OF
the Seventh avenue paving improve
ment from Thirtieth to Forty-siXth

that a commissioner has at last been
appointed, it is hoped that the project
will be pushed forward. The improve
ment is an important one for the prop
erty affected, and for the city at large
as well.

Scar of Efforts to Resusc tate Lead to
Theory of Farmers Death.

Coroner Limerick or WhlteSlde coun-
ty has returned after holding an in
quest over the remains of David Gsel
He found the cause of his death TO have
been heart failure. The mark on his
body over the heart, which was sup
posed to have been made by the kick
of a COW, proved to have been a slight
burned spot caused from the use of
a fiat iron in the frantic efforts which
were made by the wife and daughter to
resuscitate him after his body was
found in the field. The shape of the
iron was much like that of a cows hOof
and that gave rise to the idea of his
having been kikced.
