snarling at the visitors.

shouted, when Lajoie stepped to the
plate. The crowd laughed, but
LaJoie's only reply was a smash
against the club house for a home
run.
"Oh, no, amt he the handsome

Hickman took his position at the
plate. Cheerful" responded by
whanging one of Jack Harper's
curves about a mile more or less,
for another home run.
BY this time the crowd was
guying Burkett, advising him to do
sundry things, chief of which was
to clap a muffler on his jaw. But
Jesse couldn't be stopped, appar-
emily.
When Bradley followed Hickman

you think you can hit it. tco?"
II hit 'em sometimes, esse," said
the chief of the Boo gang as he
waded into q fast ball that disap-
peared over the fence ard broke a
window in a passing street car.
There was a cry from the stands
and looking toward the Browns
bench the players saw Isurkett lying
on the ground, apparently dead TO
the world. Thinking the sun had
overcome him, players of both
teams grabbed water buckets. Be-
fore Jesse could explain that he
was merely stimulating faint he
was drenched from head to foot
