Saturdays double victory put the

and with an even break of luck now
they should be able TO stay there. II
the Colts could finish third in the
race they will have done well in con

have followed the club all season.
II was fortunate that they were
able To take the Tars into camp I'm
both games Saturday. since II the
Stxitors had won both the locals
would have been almost hopeiesly
down In the second division.
To Deacon Morrissey must go the
rcedit of winning the first game
though his .s4rvices were hardly
needed in the second game for the
reason that SalYe settled down after
his one bad inning and the chances
are that the Tars would not have
scored again.

Skipper Clarke struck a squall in
the good ship Mary Jane Saturday
and shipped so much water over the
lea rail that the worthy craft could
not run her best race.
When Quartermasters Vance. Fox
and Sheehan were knocked down in
the scuppers the wheel was left with
out a steady hand and the Colts fash
ed across the line in both races with
tack or more to spare.
Locals ciout the Ball.
Good stickwork and excellent field
ing won both gaines for the Colts
Verbout had an off day and was re-
lieVed By Morrissey in the sixth in
ming after the visitors had scored enc
run in the fourth and two more in
the fifth. Morrissey held them with
out hit for the remaining four in
nings.
The locals took kindly to Nance's
curves and found him for eight hits
two OF them doubles. They scored
three runs in the fourth inning and
another In the sivth
second Game Easy.
The Colts had a still easier time
capturing the second game. Neither
Fox nor Sheehan was able to stop
the heavy hitting OF the locals. and
they gathered twelve hits off the two
tWirleTs.
Salye atarted off strong and the
visitors did not get hit off him until
| the fifth inning, TIP To this time only
| three men faced him In each inning
/ In the fifth, however a free pass, a
sacrifice. A passed bali and three sim
| giles gave them three runs, and this
was more than the Colts had at the
time.
The Colts scored run in the first
and Fox was taken out in the second
and Sheuhan sent in. He allowed a
run in the third. one in the fifth and
two in the sixth
Morrissey relieved Salve in the sew
enth, although there seemed no ncces-
stty for It, as the southpaw was going
! Wen and steadied down after the fifth.
! He retired the side without trouble
! In the sixth and secured a hit that
! scored tho two runs for the Colts In
/ that inning. The scores:

Salve gets credit for the victory
and nothing in coming to Morrissey
except such praise as the fans shall
give him for his excellent work. The
Colts were ahead when Saive was
taken out and hence the credit for
the victory goes to the southpaw.
Ed Hooper, the new shortstop Sc
cured from the Trenton Club, to fiji
Bakers place did not arrive here Sat
urday night az expected and hence
Was left .behind-The eitsb did not
leave until Sunday night but Hooper
had not reached here at that time
and Ezekiel was taken along to play
the position.
Neither owner Bradley nor Man
ager i4awlor received any further
word from the player and they DO not
know why he was delayed. The last
word received was in the form Of a
telegram that came Saturday an
nonncing that the player had left

the Colts was welcome sight Sat
urday, and il seemed that they all
came back at the same time. Vance,
who has seemed to be mystery 10
the locals in other games. was rather
easy. as was Fox and Sheehan.
When the Colts outfielders are hit
ting the team generally wins, and the
eutneiders hit the ball Saturday as
they never did before In a double
header They secured eleven hits in
the two games. and three of tines e
were for extra bases.
Not much credit is due the Colts
for pounding Long John Fox In the
hrst inning of the second game. The
elongated twirler had his eye IN
Jared recently and the optic is in
such condition that he is not able 10
sse well. He has not pitched a game
since june and was not In his brs,
fuTrTTs but When IN form he Is no
easy mark and may give some OF his
classy exhibitions before the season
is over,
