scended Mr.. Clunn stopped ~stock-still
in his tracks as though he happened
to be thinking of home and mother, and
the tap went as a hit.
Such doings and a few more on the
side caused friend Pete Cassidy, at first
base, to whisper words that don't APP
pear in the dictionary. In only one
inning did the Peaches become
troublesome. That was i'll the seventh,
due to the wildness of one Mr..
Stoup. The Ohio gent issued three
passes, made a wild heave and was
landed on for a home Il and two sin
giles. Three runs were in and a couple
of men on the bases, with only one
down. BY that time Manager Stall

Mueller went to the rescue.
