COMMENTS ON THE GAMES.

Although the Washingtons are charged
with four errors and the New York with
two on the days play, two more brilliant
exhibitions Of the national sport will
hardly be discovered in a seasons round.
Ringer plays were cropping up In al
most every inning. and more pleased
crowd would be hard to find A ma
jority of the spectators would have liked
the Nationals to have .'copped' both
games, but they recognized the fact that
Mannings work in the first game en-
titled him to a victory and that the same
applied to Groom in the second.
The first star plays developed in the
fourth inning of the first game, Charley
Smith pulling off a quick throw to Don
ohue that caught Enge mapping and
starting everybody to applauding. In
Washingtons turn at the bat in the
same inning Donohue pulled a screamer
around into right that looked very safe,
but Hal Chase stopped the ball with his
chest. then gathered it in and beat
"Jiggs" to the bag.
In the sixth inning Engle hit the ball
mile into left field, but the speedy
Browne got after it, and after a high

The score was 6 to 4.
The battle was fought before one of the
largest crowds Of the season, and there
was plenty of roofing on both sides. The
boys fought like tigers. 1nfielders Busch

the most costly errors seen at the park
for some time. These terrible slip-ups
occurred in the fifth session. with two
men down. and gave the champions two
of their six runs Had not these fero-
cious fumbles happened the contest might

have put an end to the hostilities after a

Sanders started the ball rolling for the
losers, and only lasted five innings, when
he was pounded good and hard to all
corners of the field for total Of eight
them right over where his opponents
liked them, three going for doubles. They
found him easy from the start and until
he was taken from the box. At the close
of the fifth inning Buscher went from
first to the mound. and Sanders took his
place on the initial sack. AS a pitcher
Buscher was star. but his playing at
the first stop was a little below the
standard. While Buscher officiated on
the slab he held the heavy sluggers to a
standstill. Not a man could connect
safely.
Johnnie Priest was the hero with the
stick. Johnnie, lucky boy, swatted out
double and two singles, all of which
were timely.
The winners run-getting sessions were
the first second, fourth and fifth. The
Brentwoods still lead the league by a
margin of Al points. Old Pete Hofmann
was there with double and single yes

game at second for the Columbias. He
took care of four putouts and accepted

Ninth Boys Smother st. Paul.
The Ninth Street Christians defeated
the St. Paul Methodist team in the Sun
day School League yesterday and by so
doing they are close on the heels Of that
Bethany tribe for first place. The con-
test was one-sided. the score being Is to 1.
Aside from Johnny Carroll's twirling
the only happenings of the contest to
cause comment were the heavy slugging
of the Christians and the playing Of
Right Fielder Haas Of the Methodist

gregation of good hitters, but Carroll
had it completely at his mercy yes

will probably be with the Nationals again
next spring. Cravath had the goods to
deliver this spring in the batting line,
but the American League pitchers quick
ly discovered his weakness. and then 1t

Hemphill's hot liner in the second in
ming of the second game went over Dele

spectator 1t looked like clear case of
shirk or bad judgment in jumping for the
ball. 1t is claimed by some that the ball

couldn't reach it, It's big odds, how
