Paris Looses to Rivermen.

Bad luck still follows in the path of
Chief Boniosh. Yesterday afternoon
he dropped his third game. this time
by the narrow margin of one run. the
Rivermen winning by score of to 2.
Boniosh was on his mettle throughout
the contest and althouh the visitors con
nected safely:eleven times, faster field
ing would have kept the number of
hits down or at least cut them to short
drives. The Indian worked we'll in
keeping his hits scattered Throughout
the game until the seventh when the
Rivermen batted in three runs. Three

ent to win the game with the local
aggregation unable TO hit Beer, and

the big league prospect to the knob to
stop the Bourbonites.
Throughout the game Paris made
only five safe hits, one OF which was a
scratch and Mollenkamp, the husky
initial sacker, got the credit for three
of the total number. The third defeat
of Boniosh since he made his debut in
the Blue Grass, was the second he has
suffered by one run. In each game
he has pitched the local aggregation has
failed to hit,strongly behind him. In
the game Yesterday he showed mark
ed improvement and fast fielding in the
eighth inning would probably have
kept the total number of runs to a
mark which. ..could:hA been overcome.
The three twobase hits, with the eX
ception of possibly one, could have
been reduced to singles, and the visit
ors should consider themselves ex-
tremely lucky to get away with the
contest
Lock was the star in the field, accep-
ting ten chances without bobble. and
several of the number were nothing
short of difficult. However, the defeat
of yesterday. we hope, will be signal
for victory to-day. for the two teams

since Sunday, is still suffering from
