Fats VS., Leans.

One Of the most interesting and
closely contested baseball games ever
played on the Lexington diamond took
place Wednesday evening. The Fats
were pitted against the Leans in a
benefit game for the ''Corno" whose
exchequer shows formidable figure
on the wrong side Of the ledger, which
should be promptly made up by our
patriotic citizens. Contrary to ex-
pectations the receipts on this occa-
sion were only $40, while at regular
games as much as $75 has been real
lied. But those who stayed away
missed one of the best times of their
lives. The Fats were represented by
j. G. Pickens, who as pitcher proved
that despite these many years of in
activity in baseball lines his hard has
lost none of it's cunning, and j. A.
Brown, John T. Fincher, DR.. P. D.
Holcomb, Hon. Ell. s. Hooker, Morris
Herman, Sigmund Hyman and W. l..
Walton. John T. Fincher, who held
down third base, did not let single
ball pass him-if he did not catch 1T
in his hands it struck some part of his
elephantine body and its further prog
ress was necessarily impeded. One
of the distinctive features of the game
was a three bagger hit by Lonnie Jor-
dan, letting in three men. AS Nj.
Jordan claims to be q tyro in the
game, this exploit leads his friends to
the opinion that if he had started ear
lier the famous Casey would not have
been in it with him at the bat,

Baker, Jr. Arthur Jordan, one of
Virginia University's best ball tossers,
acted as catcher for both sides with
absolute fairness and impartiality. The
score at the end of the game stood at
13 for the Leans and 10 for he Fats.
Guy Slack acted as umpire and held
the players right down to the league
rules, despite their lack of practice or
knowledge of latest decisions. He
proved himself an umpire par excel
lence although the Leans aver that he
ought to be drawn, quartered and
hung" for partiality to the Fats, fore
ing them to put out five men in order
to get one to their credit. The Fats,
nothing daunted, and satisfied that
there is enough good material in their
ranks to overwhelm and submerge the
pretentious and hraggart Leans chal-
lenged them to another game for yes
terday evening which was promptly
accepted, The line-ups for the occa'
sion were as follows, and as will be
noticed, contained some splendid and
experienced players who in years past
proudly held up Lexington's invincible
gonfalon in the baseball arena: Fats i:
