Base Ball.

The Greatest Base Ball Catch Ever Made.
Stories of exciting base ball plays and
of many deciding moments in great
games are recounted by Hugh S. Fuller
ton, the base ball expert, in the June
American Magazine. The following is
the story of the greatest catch ever
made:
1.-The greatest individual feat ever per-
formed was one by which Bill LANCE,
now retired, saved a game for Chicago
and 5000 for himself in Washington, in
1895. There is an odd story connected
with the play LANCE had missed train
in Boston two days before, failed to
reach New York in time to play there
and Arson had fined him 500. There
upon he missed train to Washington
arrived on the grounds after the teams
had practised and just in time to play,
and for that Arson fined him another
500. The game that afternoon went
eleven innings, Chicago scoring one run
in the eleventh. There We're two men
out and runner on the bases, when
Kip Setback, then one of the hardest
hitters in the business, smote the ball
terrific blow and sent it flying over
Lange's head toward the center field
fence. The hit seemed a sure home run
but LANCE, man weighing 225 pounds,
turned and without locking sprinted des-
perately straight out toward the fence,
racing with the flying ball. At the last
instant, as the ball was going over his
head, LANCE leaped, stuck up both hands,
the fence. The boards splintered, one
entire panel crashed outward, and out of
the wreckage crawled LANCE, holding
the ball in his hand, and the crowd went
mad. LANCE came limping in, with the
crowd standing on seats shouting, and he
said to Arson: Fines go, Cap?' Nope,
said Arson, and the catch had saved the
big fielder 5000. -
JUMPED ON A FENCE AND CAUGHT A FLY.
'That Baltimore crowd, team of in
ferior players winning by dash, nerve
and courage, gave many exhibitions of
individual daring, but one of the great
est was the feat of Wee Willie Keller on
the home grounds. Right field on the
Baltimore grounds of those days was the
terror of visiting players 1t was down
hill, rough and weedy, and back of it was
high fence, peculiarly constructed for
advertising purposes. Inside the fence
sloped at an angle of about IS degrees,
being straight on the outer side. Boston
was playing there late in the season in
which the two teams had their frantic
struggle for the pennant, and late in the
game, with runners on bases, Stahl drove
a long fly to right that seemed likely to
win the game for Boston. Keller, one
of the fleetest men in the business, seeing
the ball was going over his head, leaped
upon the slope of the fence and started
to run along it, going higher and higher,
and just as the ball was going over the
fence, he caught it. His momentum
carried him higher along the incline, and
before the big crowd realized that he
the top Of the e fence me- W and ft them ho d
the ball aloft, he plunged over and went
outside the grounds. Probably never a
base ball player in the world received
such rousing ovation as he did when he
climbed over the fence and tossed the
ball to the infield.''
