away from him. recovered and by a fine
throw headed off Blue at the plate.
Bob Ganley's hit in the sixth inning of
the first game was the first he has made

over his head and when he came down he
had the sphere with him. When he
walked to the plate after the inning the
spectators gave Stone quite an ovation.
There were a couple of hundred specta-
tors from Missouri in the left-feld stand
and they cheered the Browns at every OPP
portunity. 1t is almost needless to remark
that they were a happy lot after the
double victory.

exciting eight. inning game yesterday aft
ernoon on the latter's grounds. the result
being a tie-1 to 1. This was the fourth
contest between these clubs. and st. Eliz-
abeth had fortified its heretofore weak
spots by the addition of new players, hop
ing to win from Brookland. But Simons
again proved too much for the boys over
the river. Besides striking out eight men,
he did not issue a pass to first, and was
hit for but four singles, two of which
should have been easy outs. Simons was
at his pest in the eighth inning when,
with attendants, inmates and members of
the G. II. i. team strung along the first
and third base lines, and all yelling like
mad. he smilingly struck out the side
pitching but eleven balls. Wilkins also did
great work, allowing but two hits, but he
passed two and hit a batsman. Both
teams folded brilliantly, McGrath. Pick

hit him on the shoulder with the ball
Quite talkfest followed between the two.
Tom Jones gave Altizer chance to
make hit in the second, as he muffed the
soldier boys high foul. but David's best
was a pop fly to Williams.
Just before being caught off third in the
second Ciymer was cautioned to look out
for short throw, but Blue and Williams

SECOND GAME.
After Powell and Howell Retire,
Waddell Holds the Locals.

Charley Smith was on the rubber in the
second game and in addition to being very
wild he allowed bingles to be made when
they were most needed by the Brown
legs. George Stone and big Spencer took
an especial liking to his delivery, this
pair making six of the nine hits credited
to the visitors, the former getting two
singles and a home run, while the latter
had double and two singles.
The second game got under way in the
most spectacular style and headed off the
coming groans for a few minutes Stone
worked a base on balls and in trying to
sacrifice Hartzel sent a little fly to Shipke
and Stone was doubled up at first VIII
1iams was then called out on strikes.
For the locals little Milan pasted one
to the clubhouse for three bases and the
crowd yelled its glee. Shipke then hit a
line fly right at Wallace and Milan had
a little fly back of second and Milan tried
to score after Hoffman caught the ball.
Norman made a good throw to the plate
and Milan was headed off rather easily
although he made a desperate slide for
the rubber.
In the Browns second, Smith filed up
the bases with three bases on balls inter-
spersed with a sacrifice and an out on
roller to himself, but he made Powell hit
to Mcbride and no damage resulted.
