fore Being Derricked.
Some Clever and Punk Playing
at Local Yard.

To stretch the point a trihe, Pepper
Clark the kaws great medicine man,
lObbed UP a no hit game in the first go
of Mondays double bill. To be very
hospitable to Lincoln, on the other
shand, one can allow them two hits If q
very scratchy variety. Thomas bound
ed one on MoOre's sternum in the sixth
inning which may be termed bingl7
on the breastbone and Cobb, in The last
frame, tickled Hafford on the hoOf be-
fore he could move it.
Otherwise Pepper had the whole An
telope herd cayenned, dehorned and
picked IN taoasco. He walked only
one and his support made only four
errors, so he turned in his well earned
shutout and the first win in IL days.
The score was to O.
Fourteen hits off Farthing is the Sc
cret Of the Kaws five scores. Everybody
credit and the hard hitting twirler was
doing pretty much of something else.
And Whitney Sacrificed.
The first run which would have been
enough was made according to HOyle
with few suggestions by RickerJ.
Rick led the way, as a good general
should, with q sound blow through he

Crisp doubled in the second but two

pepper Rickert hit to lead the third
but he and HaffOrd were cut down al
second and they waited until the fourth
TO 90 round some more. King started
the organ music, striking hot pine
near Cockman. Baxter then made the
record scratch hit of the season when
he hunted a pop safe three feet away
and Stratton overran it. Moore slow
ed one down to Cockman, beat it out
and filled the sacks. The Lincoln bunch
looked like Kaws. With the bases in
this intoxicated condition, Krebs got
his Drawn behind a clean one Into right
and two came home. Then KrebS,
slightly overcome with prosperity per
haps, took a flyer at second and got
stabbed on the steal. Crisp hit clean.
Moore came home and Krebs might
have. Clark whitfield and Rick forced
Crisp.
In the seventh. the Kaws rang up
their last. Hafford harpooned one
through the heart of the diamond. Went
to second on Whitneys out and arrived
at third on a balk by Sir George Far

had walked. He went to second on the
out of DundOn and there Clark tossed
the ball wide to Krebs to eaten him
off. Cobb sprinted to third and turned
for home just as King picked up the
ball. Needless to add Mr.. King had
him vt the plate by u furlong and a
kiicmeter
