CATS DOWN TURKS
in A GREAT GAME

Raymond, Seattle's fast little
shortstop, booted a hard rounder
in the fifth inning when Aberdeen
had a man on second and let in the
only run OF the game, Seattle being
defeated by score of l to 0. The
game was fraught with sensational
fielding and the battery work on
either side was the prize kind,
though both Siever, pitching for
the Black Cats, and Anderson, for
Seattle, were hit six times each.
The game was played in one hour
and 80 minutes, with brennan, one
of the new umpires, making the de-
