 saw the Maroons take the gate money | from the Orphans by a ratio of $ to

Yes, II | did look like the Maroons had met a i Waterloo at this stage and until the | seventh, when the Orphans went to slaves and all the spirits of zim oozed | out of their holiday barrel. But the | Orphans have no one to blame but l themselves, that Is part or them selves. Somehow. while they fielded
 well with the bases empty as busted | firecracker, yet when the sacks were | loaded they were not there, except with a bungle. The errors were like | the published accounts of the wedding presents. numerous and costly.
 Lewis in left made an ungainly stab | at a fly and two runs registered on | this misplay Parish also committed | some flukes at second, one of which
 aided and abetted. a Maroon tally. | Then the Mexicans picked out few
 of Johnson's choice inshoots and slani- med them to open spots and it was not | hard to take the game. Johnson's | support was not timely; had it been
 the result would have been different. 1 The Maroons won because they played | the game better, in every way They | were more active on base running and l fielded fairly clean.

 The Orphans had already scored 1 once so the game was then tie. The | Orphans run came on muffed fly in left. Lewis single, Farishs sacrifice i fly to center.

But alack it was only a midair splendor. fleeting as powder sparks in the summer ! nights gloom. But that's to come lat | CT Tn this brilliant round of milling. the Maronns were crowded close to the ropes and nearly rendered groggy. for Grijalva gave signs of taking punish ment badly Johnson started it with a | bang to left and was helped around to | third by Charlie shooting two wild pitches in for extra measure. Then Vinson walked down to first. Lewis | gazed on two strikes and missed the | third one. Parish came, forward with l a rap to left and Johnson came home: | Tebben directed one joyfully to right pasture and Vinson came in; Magoffin | .;.-l, tered. Grijalva blockaded further pro gress by striking out Graham and HeinZe.
 Herzberg swallowed hard for few innings, but his Adams apple bobbed up and down much slicker in the sey- enth. The orphans made a monoto-
 nous funeral procession from this time
