the home plate by James and. Bur-
nett and one of the Tacoma tallies
was cancelled. Then two men got
on bases and Brown bumped a lit
lie one to Samuels and Sam
promptly handed the ball to john
ny Hender-for Johnny used to be
football player and a sprinter
and several other things--and he
took after Mr.. James.
James tried a foot race with the
Tacoma boy, but was nabbed be-
fore he got to third and rubbed
In the soft ground. Burnett in
the meantime had come to third.
When he saw the fate of his CO.
Bender, and he stuck out his feet
to get back to second base. But
Bender was right after him and
with q joyous burst of speed. He
landed on the big Indian and the
twain went down together in a
cloud of dust while the side was
retired and Bender was chalked
up with a double play. Then the
fans became boisterous and abso-
lutely uncomfortable.
This display on the part of the
Tigers, took the zeal out of the
Indian tribe and, although they
made a couple of later attempt to
get even, they were hardly worth
mentioning.
OF course they tied the score in
the sixth inning, but that play OF
Bender's had SO ratified them that
they Immediately threw away theil
chance in the eighth and two
Tigers came hame on a wild heave
by Spokane's third baseman.
There were a couple of narrow
escapes by both sides, due to some
! star fielding stunts in center. Bur
nett grabbed couple that would
have been good for home runs
and Kippert also pulled one of
the top of the fence.
The contest was good one fol
the fans. There was lots of hit
ting and good fielding, and the
real gratifying thing about the
contest was that luck was with the
home team. Secret

BRESNAHAN CHEAP
SAYS s. ROBINSON

Says Stanley Robinson, owner
OF the Cardinals: II regard
Bresnahan as the most progress
sivc player in base ball. IAwent
far to get him, but would4 have
gone farther. The most heroic
base ball measures are the ones
that have brought returns.J Ae
right man was worth any bfice.
Roger cost a fortune. but I'll make
a fortune this season. We have
played to so per cent more bust
ness than last year. Bresnahan
Is always doing his best, always
making good. II he had cost

investment. Better one leader
