National League,

New York, Aug. 26.-New York
again went into the lead yesterday
by defeating Pittsburg in the third
game of the series. Hendrix, a re-
cruit pitched a great game holding
the Giants to two hits. He was re-
tired in the eighth to let Campbell
bat for him and New York won out in
the second half of the inning by
punching two hits and one steal with
a pass. Ames was very wild at the
start, but only one run was scored
against him. Crandall who succeed
ed him in the third inning, pitched a
steady game, errors by Doyle giving
Pittsburg their run in the eighth,
striking his head against the post
in front of. the press box in getting
under the ball.

filled with the species of his choice,
but after having landed the first fish
he awoke to the terrible realization
that he had neglected to bring his bas-

him was his little minnow bucket.
Here he was In midstream with
wondrous fish. He could not lay II

go on with the sport. So what was he

Well. he happened to be gentleman

But the best part Of the Joke he had
on the Judge was this: That Jealous

sport that he was unmindfuI OF the
fact that the fish fnned his bare legs
whenever they tapped. On his way

we took our position, and right at our
feet on the second shelf was a little

for the fish we were to catch. 1t was
