and Sunday in the first practice game

double quartet of runs, while the COM
Ing champs of the Central association
were compelled to be satisfied with

mysterious offerings of the former
Gotham American star, Perl Holycross

natives to deprive the visitors OF even

PAS aggregation made their customary

IDLY affected the work of the Ottumwa

mean but little, and Manager Egan

the seemingly poor showing OF his
men.
The RUDE Was a Target.
Sundays. game was great exhlol-
ton for the 1900 loyal ones to witness,
and every one Of the thousand ana
half fans demonstrated that they, too,
were in midseason form. Ottumwa's
defeat is due to the effectiveness OF
Holycross and Baylor PRIMARILY, ana
to the two-base biff of Second-sacker
Hickman In the second with the
cushions crowded. Holycross pitched
for five innings, Murphy's safe slap
into right in the fifth being the only
hit of him. Senno connected IN the
sixth of Baylor, and the Ottumwa's
hits were at an end. Ottumwa had
but one man on third in the entire
game, the Hibernian gent Murphy
doing the honor via the pass route and
two purloined sacks. The second ses-
sion was the one best bet of the 90.
Hickman's clout with three on was
the feature. This hit followed Mad
iox's triple which started the inning.
Powers walked Comingor and Coveney
and then came the emphasized swat by
Hick.
senno stars In Gardens.
Daniel Senno, the young man with
the Spanish countenance was the red
white-and-blue OF the green fields. HIS
great work also came in second. BY
making sensational one-handed
catch of Hilley's hit to right center,
the diminutive one recovered quickly
and doubled Hickman on his return
to second. It was beautiful play.
Murphy, the. Micque, certainly looked
good in his first game, and will make
Brand hustle some II Sundays work is
any indication Of his calibre. He got
two bases on balls and a hit IN three
times up, handled seven chances with
out an error, took part in a fast double
play and stole three bases. His debut
was a most favorable one.
Sundays game was won by Daven-
port by leading all the way, getting
hits when they were needed and TAX
ing advantage Of Ottumwa's errors:
Russell and Wagner joined the
squad Sunday, and Manager Egan is
expecting Finney, Rose, Brand and
Preston to arrive at any time.

Passing Bundles.


Divide the players into two sides
and arrange them in two lines facing
each other. At each end OF both lines
place n chair On the opposite chairs
at one end OF the line place an equal
number OF bundles OF clothespins tied
loosely together with strings-that is,
tie together beforehand four or five
clothespins and have ten or twelve
such bundles. Divide the bundles
equally between the chairs az the end
OF the llne-that is 10 say. place one
half OF the bundles on each Of the two
chairs. Having selected an umpire TO
settle all disputes. az signal from
him the players nearest the chairs
pick up bundle and pass It from the
hand nearest the chair into the other
hand and then 10 the next players
hand. who passes II In the same way
and as quickly as possible until II
reaches the player next to the chair at
the other end OF the line, who then
places It in the chair.
In the meantime the player nearest
the chair on which the bundles lie
has no sooner passed the first bundle
than he takes mp another. and so all
the bundles are passed as rapidly as
possible until they have been placed
on the chairs at the other end of the
line. The side that passes its bundles
first wins, the umpire deciding.
Clothespins so tied are awkward to
handle and are quite likely TO be drop
ped while passing down the line. The
side whose player drops a bundle or
any Of the pins out OF q bundle loses
without finishing the game.
