The "Base Ball Game.


The picture, entitled 1.-THE Baseball
Came" is characteristic illustra-
ton Of Americas greatest sport, and
will interest every lover of the game,
It shows in a clever way many
characters whom anyone will recog-
nige; the small boy whose love of the
game leads him to climb the fence;
the 3Sd degree "fans," who occupy
honorary positions on the broken
chair and the soap box in the field;
the noisy fellows in the grandstand.
They are all there-the "Wellman"
man; the "Hit 'er out" man; the
xiii the umpire" man. You will see
someone you know in the picture.
In the pose Of the batsman and the
tense attitude of the catcher, the
picture reveals that the game is at
a critical stage; the score is presum-
ably a tie; two out, a man on third
and with two strikes ana three balls
ON the batsman. The batsman, all
set to swing at the ball, might be
the double Of the immortal Casey"
The picture which can be seen IN
G. c. sterl G Co.'s window was
drawn for Hart Schaffner & Marx
and is one Of the best things that
Mr.. Samuel Nelson Abbott. a New
York artist, has done.

were backed with excellent support.
Thompson the world-beater south
paw, pitched a wonderful game let
ting the Red Sox down with four
hits and striking out 16 men. He
has great capacity Of curves and
steam and will make would-be bat
ters around the circuit feel like they
had passed through a whirlwind. The
two scores that Abilene chased In
were in the seventh. Young walked
to first; Thompson followed and
slapped the minute sphere for pref
ty line drive over short, advancing
Young to second, who gained third
by an error. Wilson was next on
deck and biffed the pill to the left
with the velocity Of meteor. The
left fielder muffed the ball, allowing
Young and Thompson to fan two
scores across the pan. Bectold was
the "candy kid" yesterday as he stop
ped some impossible rollers that
would otherwise have been hits. Will
Hams is sure the gun at the bat. He
got his usual two Dagger and for a
