ST. LOUIS, May 14-Gen. Madero Nc
Aleer, with his army of Potomac, care
fully hung it on the army of the Chicago
South Side in the closing battle, cop
ping the honors in a slugging, wallop-
ing roistering melee, by a score of II
to 6.
When the slaughter was over and the
shades Of night were dropping over the
field Gen. HuGhey Navarro Duffy wept
large gObs of tears. 1t was a glorious
victory. Settling down to hard work
after weak start. Dixie Walker had
the enemy standing on their heads
and waving their legs. Two hits in
syncronous conjunction in the sixth put
our star breakfast food twirler, w.
Otey, in the struggle and he carried the
banner onward to victory. The Nation
ais simply slugged their. way to the
end.
With the tally four to nothing against
them, Conroy singled TO center in the
third and scored when Jeems Callahan
failed to get hold of Jack Lelivelts
smashing double. In the fifth another
run crept in on all fours; Lelivelt tore
off triple to right down the alley and

The Important Sixth.
The sixth saw the Nationals forge
ahead, and then the White SoX tie up
things in a knot. FRANKIE Lange was
wilder than a black crow and walked
Mcbride. Henry and Walker in a row.
Our dandy captain and the college
in xlyha Milan da she'd a
single to center. Lange tossed out Con-
roy, but walked Lelivelt. Kid Elber-
fields slam through the box scored
Walker and the Taftown brigade were
leading.
Then the White Sox grabbed off a run
when, with one down, Tannehill singled
to left Jack Lelivelt played bean bag
with Mr. Brides toss Of Corhan's crack,
and TannehilI was on third. He came
in when Bill Sullivan poled a safety to
center. 1t was six. love, right there.
For the next three innings the boys
from the real city Of our great coun-
trv just hammered that pill. and Jim
Scott was soundly trounced down TO
the very end. In the seventh, Cunning
ham, after waving at air three times,
hammered that pellet to left and took
third when George Mcbride picked off
a neat QOODle 10 the SAME pOChel.
''Massa John Henry so far forgot his
manners as to hammer out single to
center, sending both Of them across the
platter and putting the Nationals in the
lead,
Kidlets on Third.
Tannehin fooled Elberfeld's drive in
the eighth and Doc Gessler came
through with safe wallop TO left, put
ting the KidIets on third. Bill Cunning
hams sacrifice fly TO Chouinard scored
the Kidlets. and McBride's ditto to
Bodie let GeSSler make noise ike
tally.
The final session saw two more of
those things called runs come in. Otey
was safe when Tannehill crossed his
feet and both hands at the same time
He took third on Milans corking slap
to left for two haSso"ks. and both boys
we're over on Lelivelt's beautiful drive
to the middle, pasture for one button.
Just to make things entertaining 10
the l2,000 or more bugs and buggesses
the brave soldiers under Gen. Hughey
Navarro Duffy copped a run in the
eighth. With two gone Corhan Sneezed
4 single to right and flew across when
Billy Sullivan actually. really, and truly
polad a double to left: but that was all
the aforesaid army of the South Side
could do, for the breakfast food boy
was there with the goods.
Dixie Walker was unfortunate in the
opening inning, two of the five hits off
him being f1ukey. After that session
he waXed stronger and stronger unit!
relieved by Otey. From now on Walker
will do his share of the hard work on
the mound, and judging from the scores
up to date, the pitchers are bound to
