up. Umpire Collinower deemed II prope,
to call the contest on account OF dark
ness. and the game will be played over

Strobel. Southern's star twirIer, pitched
pretty game. The reputed heavy slug
gers were only able to gather two hits

one in Bischoff's direction and which re-
suited in everybody being safe. Hiser

his loose work in Parks half by singing
after Melvin had famed, sending over
Naughten.

in the eighth inning. Platz get three and
two, and then strolled when the last one
went wild. A steal was next in order
by the big Southerner. and he advanced
