The game vi chock fun Of hard hit
ting, and although the score-12 to 8 In
favor Of the Chicagos-wouldn't have
pleased an American crowd a little bit.
II tickled those Englishmen immensely.
and next morning all the papers de-
clared II the best game ever played OF
English soil. II had been arranged TO
pull off a throwing contest after the
game between Crane and Conner. ar
Australian champion. but tho latter
backed out and Crane gave a solo exhi-
billion, throwing a cricket ball 10 yards
and a baseball 40 yards. That evening
we were treated TO a banquet and our
fine old friend. the Duke Of Beaufort,
dropped In" as he expressed II. ito
spend an evening with those splendid
fellows from America"
II had been arranged tha we should
make a 1ying tour as far north as Glass
gov before crossing over to ireland. I
wish you could nave seen tho special
train In which We travelled on that trip.
1t consisted of nine cars. two OF which
were dining saloons, two smoking and
reception cars and the balance slcepers.
The exterior of the train was exceeding
ly swell. the body color OF tho coaches
'Neing white enamel. with trimmings OF

..turnouts at the station and driven to the
Gloucester Cricket Grounds, brand new
and about the best in England. The
very first thing on the programme was
a hearty dinner. and, although we knew
from experience that the game to be
played Immediately after would suffer In
consequence. we did not let that inter-
fere with our enjoyment of the sumptu-
Gus repast. for such It certainly was.
The Duke OF Beaufort did the honors on
tlat occasion, and although, as a genera.
rule, I have mighty little use for dukes,
I had to make an exception In favor OF
Beaufort. who was one of the 1olliest
and mos. democratic old sports I ever
Pan up against. He reminded me OF my
father.
Well, I leave you 90 imagine wha
that game was. I have no reason to
kick, for we won. but I don't mind tell
ing you that 1t wouldn't do to put up
a game OF ball Hike that In America.
After the game was over the Grace
brothers and some OF the other crack
cricketers wanted to try their han at
the American game. n the Chicaeos
took the field, while Ryan n Crane
pitched. I wish you could have seen
those big crlcketers bat! They couldn't
negotiate the quick delivery OF the
Americans and the twirlers had to SLOW
down considerably before they managcd

Prince Didn't Hear Tener.

Another story that has gone the
rounds OF the press IS to the effect that
bfter the game was over the Prince
sent for John Tencr and requested him
to explain the game of baseball to him
AS the story runs. John labored with
His Hlghness for an hour. but didn't
succeed In making him understand. and
1t the close OF the confab the only thing
tho Prince would admit was that It
might be a good game. but wasn't in
the same class with cricket. I've never
heard Toner either affirm or deny this
yarn-perhaps he didn't like to admit
that he was so unsuccessful In making
anything SO simple as BASEBALL clear
even to an Engilshman. I'm inclined to
fhink. however. that John did not have
that private audience with the Prince.
lie wasn't pitching That day, and l see
no reason why, he should have been
singled out as spokesman for the great
American game.
Next day we played a game on Lords
Cricket Grounds, the finest In England
at that time. and we gave the crowd Of
1000 a mighty good show for their
money. The crowd must have thought
20 too. for L never heard more bracing
cheering even in Chicago. II was a
close tussle until the last moment. when
Baldwin and l made errors that gave the
All-Americas The game. they winning
by a single run
The following day we played a game
on the Crystal Palace Grounds at Syden-
ham before a big crowd. and the ALI
Americas won 1t by a score OF 8 to 9.

Bristol, the home of the famous crick-
eters. the Grace brothers, who had given
us a special invitation to visit them.
