How Visitors Counted.

The visitors scored their first run
in the fifth inning on hit by Roude-
bush, stolen base and hit by Steen
Another came over the pan in the
seventh when Roudebush drew a base
on balls and completed the circuit on
ErWin's double TO left center. In the
sixth inning George let up on the
Boomers and both Melchoir and
Roudcbush secured hits. Erwin'S out
at first moved each along the path ami
Nlelchoir came in when. Smith ground
ed TO Berger WHO chose to catch
RoudebIsh rather than take chance
at getting the man at the plate
Smith went TO second while Roude-
bush was getting mis- between second
and third, and when Berger threw
wild to first after scooping up Steen's
grounder Smith came in with the
fourth and last of the Boomers scores.
The next man was struck out and tho
game ended with the score as follows

They started out in the initial round
TO sew the game up and took d large
crimp in the visiting twirler Murphy
opened with a high fly back OF short
stop which Snyder muffed and Frank
went to second on a bum throw by
Steen. Berger moved Frank TO third
with nice sacrifice. Mcbride. who
followed Joe in the new batting order
which Jack used yesterday, looked too
formidable to Stecn and he was given
base on balls. Kelley waited for him
TO pilfer second and then he swattel
one OH the nose which whizzed
through between Dad keenan, and
Snyder like a shot out of gun. Muir
ply and Mac both scored on the drive.
The third of the Islanders runs was
made in the third inning when Nc
Bride poied a three-sacker and came
home on Kelley's drive to the right
| fielder. In the sixth two more runs
were made as a result of hit by
| Kelley. a sacrifice by Jacobsen, Vogel's
out at first. a base on balls to Wise
| and a hit by Stark.

George Hardin piloted the Islanders
to victory yesterday afternoon against
the Bloomer boys, the final score being
. 10 1. Although the score was close,
the game was not, for the visitors
hardly had look in throughout the
entire nine innings except on one OF
two occasions when George let down
and gave them a chance to hope for a
minute. The Islanders had the game
won to when the ninth inning
opened ard there seemed absolutely
no cause for worriment, so George be-
gan tossing the ball up to the Bloom
ers and combination two hits, an
error and fielders choice gave the
visitors two more runs and put them
within one score of tying up the count.
Hardin got back on the job at this
point and with a man on the bases he
tanned Collins and retired the side.
The game was not what would be
called a brilliant exhibition and yet
there were a number of good plays in
it which kept the few spectators alive
to the fact that ball game was in
progress. The islanders showed in the
first few innings that Steen, who was
ION the mound for the visitors, had no
terrOrS for them
