determination to let Leavenworth know
they were here before the unpleasant
ness was over. And they succeeded
bountifully in both lines of effort. They
were slapped, banged and fooled al
over the brand-new enclosure for tota
of IS hits and an equal number Of runs
while eight hits, two Of which were ex-
tremely unsafe, netting FIVE runs, were
all they could gather, in spite of the
hireling aid extended by a couple o.
colored Hessians, who sat on the
bleachers and with bowling anthema
and soreheaded dwellings labored to
deliver the Leavenworth aggregation
into the hands Of the enemy.
The visitors brought up twirler by
the name of Paine-a very appropriate
name according to the views of those
who faced him-and he proved to be
something of pitcher. He had a
big assortment of curves, an elusive
spitball and lot of steam. 1t was not
until the sixth inning that he showed
any perceptible weakening. The
locals clouted the ball frequently, but
the clouts resulted mostly in little pop
ups and childish grounders.
The first inning was blank for both
teams, though Leavenworth came
mighty near scoring when Mahoney,
given first on hit by pitched ball, stole
second and third in rapid succession,
and was caught in attempt to steal
home.
In the second inning the visitors
pulled two tallies over the plate by a
combination of an unsafe hit to center,
single by Amos, tumble by Keppler
of Schmitten's grounder, and fielder S
choice too slowly handled. The best
the locals could do was to bring one
over. Coulson, touched by pitched
ball and given first, stole second and
and third and came home on hit to
to center By R. Smith. The latter
tried to emulate Coulson's feat but was
caught between second and third.
In the third two more scores went to
Cashmere through a hit to left by
Peterson that should have been gath
cred in but wasn't, a two-bagger by
Paine, a single, fielder's choice, and
a tumble at second. The locals, not
to be outdone, also scored twice. With
one man down DAILY was passed to first,
stealing second and coming home on
clean hit to left by Tholin, the latter
scoring on Mahoney's hit and Souder'
neat sacrifice.
In the fourth and fifth innings both
teams being retired in one, two three
order.
The only other run annexed by the
visitors was in the sixth. With two men
down, two clean singles brought
Schmitten across the plate. For the
remainder of the game not visitor
reached first.
When the first half of the sixth wa:
over things looked serious. The visitors
had the bulge by score Of 5 to g.
and the monotonous yelping Of the
Joyous Hessians began to crate on the
gentlemanly ears of Capt. Keppler'
aggregation. It was time things should
bidding, and the locals began to dc
them. Everybody took chew Of gum
one cigarette was suueptitiously Of
fered up as incense to the mighty Jink'
Of baseball, and Mahoney the reliable
picked out his three-bagger war club
and faced Mr.. Paine. 1t would have
been a three-bagger, too, but the ba
shattered with the stroke and only (
single resulted. However, he was ad
vanced to second when Souder wa
given a pass, and when first fumbled
throw from KepplePs clout the base
were full. Mahoney scored on a passed
ball, Coulson went out on an infelC
fly, Souder scored on R. Smiths sacri
fee, and Keppler came home on Ray
mond's single. VIM. Smith famed.
This gave the locals one run to TIT
good, but they had started to I'LL th'
balloon and they couldn't stop it. Tit
grand ascension took place in the sew
enth. and remembrances Of the aero
nautic exhibition will probably keep the
