Lea Smith, who subbed for Joe Thomas Sunday, showed the fans that he was still there when he swatted one down the third base line that was too hot for Ward and again when he grabbed Ward S long drive out of the clouds in the third.
 Kid" Buckles, the young man who pounds the ball all over the lot just for amusement, made a Ty Cobb play in the fifth, when he stole home from the third sta ton. Prescott's pitcher had the ball at the time.
 Joe Thomas is wearing a bad lamp this week, the result of a mix-up with swift one while at practice Sunday afternoon. The little sphere bounced crooked and hit Joe over the right eye, cutting such gash that he had to retire from the game, but will be on deck again for Sundays game.

Safe and Sane Fourth

The following para graphs show what they have been doing on one of the streets of Hartford, Conn, for ten years:

Saturdays Game

Saturday was the opening game mond, and sad and sorrowful for Prescott was the way the playful zephyrs blew the little sphere all over the lot for the Highlanders when they landed.
 Wilson was in the box for the Southern aggregation and the way the Champs found him for TO safeties was caution.
 Denny Ford was in the box for ! the locals and only allowed the Prescott bunch 1 hits-a home run, two triples and single, which

about a quarter of a mile long. A committee is chosen and each fam fly is asked for a small donation. About SI5o is raised, which pays for everything.
 The first event on the progrm, at o:3o o'clock, is the children's parade, headed by the newest baby, pushed by his proud father; next come the other babies in elab- orately decorated carriages, fol- lowed by the little girls, each pushing her dolls carriage; next, the small boys in Indian or sol dier suits, and, last, the older children. All carry Japanese par asols and silk flags furnished by the committee.
 At Io:3o o'clock is a baseball game in the park, played by teams picked from the east and west side of the street. Each team is cheer ed by its own followers with tin pans and horns.
 After luncheon comes a ball game between the youngsters of the street and team of small boys from the next street, and after this the sports for the children, includ- ing 25-yard dashes for all ages, a rope-skipping contest for the girls, shoe race for the boys and a peanut race, with prizes for the two best in each contest.
 Then the fathers and mothers have prize contests of throwing the baseball, running potato race, tossing the beanbag, etc. "In the evening are the great illumination and band concert. Hundreds of Japanese lanterns are hung on cords, previously pre- pared, up and down the street, from tree to tree and to the DOT. ches, and each house is decorated with many beautiful lanterns. A band of twenty-five pieces renders a fine program.

 lust to spite the weather man the Champs and the Southerners played the fastest and closest game of the season at the driving park last Sunday afternoon.
 For a while the management thought that they would have to give sandstorm checks but the boys managed to squeeze through until the seventh, when the wind and the dust, the rain, snow and hail came in chunks too big for them to handle and the game was called, the score being 4 to 3, with the Champs on the big end, too. The boys gave the fans a good article of ball, even if they could mot see it for the restless real estate.
 It looked bad for the Highland CTS when Grijalva gave Ward a free one, and bad error by Laugh ton on Clow's long drive and Dodge's bad judgment let in two runs for the Southerners in their half of the first, while we got none. But the sky began to brighten when Buckles stole home on Gill'S slow one in the second. And in the fourth, when Laugh toms three timer brought in Ba- roldy and Brannen, things looked good indeed for awhile.
 Prescott got o-o-o from the first until the sixth, when they man. aged to pull one across and Gri- galva was in a bad hole, but a nice double from Dodge to Ba- roldy to Brannen saved the day and the score was only tied. But in Flags half Buckles walloped nice little single, stole second, got to the third station on Wards error and scored on a passed ball, and then the weather began to cut up and the game was ours.
 But what cared the fans for the weather as long as the Champs won the game and put up the good article of baseball that they did Sunday.
