Fleming did good work in the box at
Winchester. He pitched a heady game.
I5was hard game to loose.

at l 600 people.

team, was much in evidence from start
to finish at Winchester.

ing out all right.
With 25O Paris people at the ball game
ard 100 at the races Main street pre-
sented deserted appearance Wednes-
day afternoon.
1t was a hard one for the boys to
loose.
There is consolation in the fact that
the great Wagner made two errors that
lost Pittsburg a game few days ago.
Quite a number of the fair sex went
over to witness the game.
Paris rcoters got in their work early
in the game and by the time the fatal
seventh and ninth innings arrived were
too hoarse to give utterance to their
disappointment.
The Paris crowd embraced fans in
every walk of life. Lawyers, doctors,
editors. ministers, bankers, merchants
and laberers.
Here, you Mr.. Winchester fan, the end
of the season is a long way off and
don't let your temporary exultatiOn
carry you beyond the limits of pru-
dence. Did you notice how cleanly the
Paris aggregation handled the ball and
how well they throw to bases. With q
little stage fright cast aside and big
supply of self con fdence regulated, we
expect to drive you to the wall Come
over to Paris as strong in numbers and
enthusiasm as when we invaded your
pretty capitol and we will give you
trouncing that won't soon be forgotten.
With perfect support Fleming would
have had 3 to victory. He looks
good the next time out, as our boys will
not be so oVer-anxious later on.
Barnett played such an excellent game
at short that there will be meeting of
the Blue Grass League clubs in Lexing-
ton to examine into the sanity of Day
ton for selling him to Paris.
Vice-President G. R. James and Secre-
tary Pearce Patton, the B. A. maenates,
had to pay extra for extra seat room in
the grand stand.
The fair bugites did not cry or swear,
that is out loud.
DR. Ussery swallowed 46 stogies and
his medicine case in the ninth.
Jerry Wilson swelled up until he
looked like Jolly Joe or Buster Sanford.
Anyone wanting good bellows or
caliope buy G Bacon.
Cheer up, 'fansP Paris outclasse 4
them in base ball like she does every
thing else, and you know "how it are -
We can't win all the time.
Every body attend the opening game
to day and root, root, root
"Pepper" Parrish needs a little glue
on his NIT, at first, occasionally.

Paris team, made as pretty a running
catch of fly at Winchester as was ever
seen on ball field.
One consolation, Wednesday, was that
Richmond wallopei the stuffiug out -
the Lexington team. There is alWa
silver lining behind the blacklist clc>
We sailed high at Winchester, We
nesday for six innings when the motor
got hot and We came to the ground
with thud.
Manager Elgin played his usual good
game behjng the bat Ills men at times
worked like the real things, out playing
Winchester at every point of the game.
