highly pleasing. Both are hitting con-

the strength of the Bourbonites
Barnett caught one in the left side
from Tony's strong right which came
near laying the third baseman out of

Umpire Dunbar assessed a fine of

of the Hustlers for using language
that was very unbecoming of a player

BASE BALL.


On Friday afternoon, at League
Park. the Winchester Hustlers defeat
ed the home team by score of to O.
Dugger held the visitors for six innings
without hit, the team was handicap
ped by being without a left fielder.
It was also known before the game
that Digger was not in MS usual
form, but still be took his turn IN the
box without murmur and pitched fine
ball. When not pitching Dugger had
been playing regular in the field with
out his proper rest. We venture to say
that this Dugger will set the Blue
Grass League on fire in the pitchers
box, when the expected new men are
signed and he can take his regular turn
after the required rest of the pitcher.
Horn, the Winchester catcher, was
benched by Umpire Rasche in the fifth
inning for abusive talk. This game
would have been easily won if Dugger
had been given good support.
SATURDAY.
On Saturday, the BourboBites went
toWinchester and walloped the life out
of the Hustlers by a csore of 10 to 2.
They had their batting eye along a7d
knocked three of the Hustlers' crack
pitchers out. They all look alike to
them. Poole was invincible, allowing
only four hits and striking out eleven
men. 1t was Poole's eighth consecutive
win, leaving him the only undafeated
pitcher in the league He was given
excellent support by the whole team.
Every one of them deserving special
mention, but lack of space forbids.
Winchester was simply beaten to a
frazzle, and the faces of the Winches-
ter people impressed you as the faces
of a congregation attending a funeral
instead of baseball game.
SUNDAY.
T There were between fifteen hundred
and two thousand people present Sun
! day afternoon to witness the last of
the series of four games between the
Winchester and Paris clubs. The re-
suit was in favor OF Paris by the score
of to 2.
Winchell was in the box and was ir

troll. He kept the seven hits well scat.

playing in left field was brilliant, ht
accepted every chance. He came from
deep left like whirlwiDd and caught
a fly between short and second, firing
the ball on the run to Elgin and com

seen on the ground. Again he made ;
great running catch of foul fly, tax
