MangIed Remains and Frag-
ments of Hosiery Returned
To the Capital of the Great
Buckeye State.
BUTLER, THE WSlTINct
TWlRuER. KNOCKED OUT.
Jessup's Lads Had Little Re-
sistance and Piled Up a
Mountaln-High Score-The
Contest Was Disappointing.

The mangled remains of the Colum-
bus, O.. team which invaded our beau
tiful City Sunday, were returned TO its
home Sunday night. together with I'll
yers remnants of the white hosiery
worn by the Buckeyes. The score OF
Il To 3 tells the entire tale of the vic
big Sunday crowd witnessed the az
sault and battery committed on the
Columbus outfit. which claims to be
the industrial champions of Ohio. AMI
the Innings of many rooters' pipes We're
frazzled completely out in that awful
sixth inning when Captain Jessup's
gore-seeking band had an orgy OF
swats. Ten men were chased over the
plate in this inning and one Butler.

the resounding wash basin tied on him
by his purple-faced. perspiring mana
ger and chased TO the jmpson weeds
which thrive in right field. Mr..
Campbell was placed in the box to face
the blood-thirsty Quakers, and he sue
ceeded in stopping the carnage for the
only reason that Manager Jessup aud
his hired men had worn themselves out
on Mr.. Butler
Dinks Not Troublesome.
The Quakers were familiar with the
dinks offered by Butler from the very
first. In the opening round the locals
made one tally. Neither side scored in
the second. In the third Columbus
took the lead, for the first and only
time Butler and Jones secured bases
on hit and an error and both counted
on Pretchel's double. Horn, who
pitched a spendid game. allowing eight
well distributed hits, then rallied and
refused to have any more runs shaken
out of him. In Richmonds half OF
the third three runs were counted. The
locals counted again in the fourth.
In the fifth neither side secured n run.
Fireworks in the Sixth.
Then came the sixth with its fire.

Ritter started the trouble with a clean
hit and scored on Cameron's double.
Plummer got a life on an error. Dur

Plummer to count Justice singles

Horn loops the loop. Plummer walks,

Was Poor Exhibition.
The game was a very poor exhibit
ion of the national game. on account
,f the poor work of the visiting team.
Butler and Campbell were pounded at
sill and eight glaring errors were
made behind them. Manager Jessup
made his first bow to a Richmond
.rowd this season and he played his
lshaI fast and aggressive game.
Reeves. the new shortstop, despite the
Knockers biffs, played a clean, fast
,ame. both in the field and at the bat.
He'll do is the verdict of the big ma
ority of the fans who saw the game.
