ST. LOUIS. Mo-, March 2o.-In game

nahan's Cardinals today humbled Bobby
Wallaces Browns, 10 to >. Bill Steele,
the big angular spit-baller from Altoona,
hurled for the National Leaguers, while
Joe Lake. another moist curve producer,
pitched for the Americans.
Wallace presented a crippled team and
it played crippled ball. Jimmy Austin and
Frank La Porte were replaced by Recruit
Eddie Hallihan and frankie Truesdale,
respectively. Neither performed up to
major league standard. Mig Clarke made
his debut in brown suit and had Il
ferociously bad day. The Cardinals stole
five bases and from the start showed lit
tie respect for Nig's whip.
Joe Lake helped to bring about his own
downfall. He yielded nine bases on balls
and eight hits. Besides that he started
trouble with wild throw in the first
inning. Higgins and Ellis had walked in
the opener when Rooney attempted to
sacrifice. Lake threw wild to Hallihan at
third and Higgins and Ellis scored Hau-
ser's double and Steele'S single netted an
other run in the second. 4 base on balls

BALTIMORE, Nd, March 25-Gallau-
Diet went down before the Mt. st. Jo-
seph team today in the first game of the
season by the score ofs12 to 9. In every
inning save the sixth, the Josephites
played snappy ball and the work of the
home team was brilliant, yet it was due
to the ballooning of that same infield
that the visitors rolled up nine runs.
The game opened with Rath on the
slab for the Josephites and Battiste, the
Indian, for the Kendall Greens. From
the first Rath was an enigma to the
visitors and was only once in danger OF
being scored upon, until that fatal sixth.
In that inning four hits, coupled with
five errors, gave the Gallaudets the 8
runs and Rath was relieved.
Battiste's wildness, coupled with timely
hits, gave the home team the twelve
runs. The Josephites did not hit Bat
tiste hard, but they managed to connect
when the hits were needed.

Jack Johnson. heavyweight pugilist of

period of detention in the county Jail

The sentence came as somewhat OF

Johnson has made a speciality of con-
Quoting his own cases hitherto when ar

today until the sentence was awarded.
Then his glbness deserted him and he
besought counsel.
In response to the frantic demands Of
Johnson for help, Attorney John j. Gree

fighter from the ignominy of jail SEN

beauties-and limitations-of his poetry.

were perfectly familiar. 10 which his
devotees have the key, but which leave
the beginner face to face with fragments
