ed by some fine work by Bush, In the
handling OF low throws.
In the meantime II must be admit
ted that the Tigers were up against
the best fielding team they had met
this year. The Nationals were simply
letter-perfect In their defense. Their
pitchers, in both games. knocked
down all sorts of hard ones and COW
cred first in grand style. Cunningham
e plainly q player improved so per
cent since his last appearance here.
Morgan, the minorleague graduate.
Is fielding star. while everyone rec
ognizes Mcbride as Bush's only field
ing rival at shortstop, this diagnosis
being based on seasons play and not
the game OF yesterday. insofar as II
rejects credit on the sensational
Tiger midget.
AS for Milan, his work beggared
description. Two OF his plays were
simply marvellous.
Only behind the bat did the Wash
ingtonians fall short. Henry In the
second game was charged with three
passed balls and let a couple OF others
get away as Tigers started to steal.
A little kind cooperation on the
part OF Umpire Dineen would have
helped the Tigers some in that second
game, and precluded the necessity for
playing the tenth inning. The row
came over one OF Milan's catches. II
was evolved at a time the sacks were
loaded and meme out, with Cobb up.
Gray had Just relieved Cashion. Ty
hit a fly back OF Cunningham and
Milan tore in and made q somersault-
ing scoop. He rolled over on the BAH
and slid for 20 feet or so and none
of the Tigers dared to move on the
base he occupied.
Milan recovered and threw the ball
to Cunningham at second. Cunning.
ham touched willett who stood dazed
on the bag, and then Schmidt broke
for the plate, which he made with ap.
parent safety. Schaefer then called
for the ball and touched both Bush
and Cobb on FIRST base. The side was
retired and everyone started hgurins
out the play The fact that Schmidt's
run was posted on the score board
with the apparent consent OF the UNI
pires further complicated matters.
Later the score was erased and
diligent baseball lawyers figured the
play out. Milan had trapped the ball
after II left the ground on the bounce.
Willett and Bush had been forced By
Cobb. Cobb had lost his hit. Schmidt's
run could not score, being made on
a forced double play.
Had Dineen let the Detroit base
summers in on the secret OF his de-
cision on the catch, the Tigers would
have been able to escape with run
and, In all probability. none out, un-
less Bush had been caught on his
way to second. There would have
been no chance for any other play.

The Tigers took the Official opti-
mist by surprise yesterday, hit hilG
on the back Of the bean with a brick
and threw his senseless form into a

He was the man who had built the
air castle over three straight from
washington and three more from the
Athletics, coupled with the two out OF
three which he was figuring that
Cleveland would take from the MACK
men
That 16 to 2 game with which the
subjects of the optimists predictions
opened the double-header Of yester-
day was to blame for his state OF
coma
surely no team that. In the fnal
stages OF the sprint for the pennant
turns on game like that, can longer
be regarded seriously.
The victim OF the dastardly assault
began TO show signs Of life just after
shutdown, however. He stirred, heaV-
ed 4 long breath and climbed out OF
the spot where his assailants had left
him for dead. Purchasing a deep
pink sporting extra, he scanned the
returns and gave a faint whoop.

ter of the several funds WEIGH came
into his care while governor the
Major was rather free in the use of
such terms as foul lies" and "in-
famous liar" In regard to the bat
tleship fund he said "every dollar
Of that fund was turned over to the
committee" and as to the contingent
fund he said, produced the youch-
ers for every cent Of it," AS to the
Spanish War Veterns fund.- he said
"a senatorial committee checked
that up" and TO those who had at
tempted to use this issue against
him, he referred as, dirty assassins
of character"
In reference to the Bryan fund the
Major said that Prof. Kincannon,
who was then at the head of the
Girls College at Columbus, had told
him that if the Bryan fund could be
loaned that interest on it would keep
some one poor girl at the college
and finding no other way out of the
matter of lending the money he paid
the interest out of his own pocket.
In the matter of the Gulf and
Ship Island pass he said that what
ever it was it was a donation from
President Jones to the old Con-
federate veterans; that he did not
even know the character of the
transportation, as this had been
obtained by Henry for those who
visited Beauvoir; and as to his sig
nature on the pass he said: 81 did |
not write it; it is an infamous forgery.
At this point, referring to the
methods used by his enemies to de-
feat him, the Major said: 81 am GO
ing to be elected just as sure as God
lets me live and lets you live to get
to the polls"
81 could have been enjoying the

Majors characteristic sayings, in
connection with the vetoing of the
bill giving the right of holding

fit to sell the functions of the office
Of governor.
At one point in his address Major
referred tothe charge of
MS having used the Franks of the
telegraph company, he told of the
coming to him of an official of the
who had charge of the
selling of cotton and cotton seed but
who had failed to sell on a day named
and had sought the Governor S advice.
On his advice, said Major Vardaman,
communication was at once establish
ed with cotton houses by telegraph |
and telephone, which commucation
had cot considerable mehey; but by
this pfUmptwction Major vardaman
said he closed sale of the cotton and
seed at a profit of $1,000 to the
State; and every dollar thus expend-
ed was spent in the service of the
State.
Major Vardaman closed his address
with an eloquent tribute to the ladies,
a number of whom had come out and
remained to the close.
