[ about in yesterdays game: Clow's ho mer. Robinson's mighty one hand run ming catch and Ritchie's timely double. 1 In order. the captains stunt comes first IL was the last of the eighth. when the cactus Candy Kid singled prettiIy after the fashion of men who
 know how. Franz of the bust rib and
 the long jaw selected Mullins for a victim, hit q beauty right between cen ter and right field. so that when Pom eroy almost had the ball. Mul had been tempted and had fallen. He was com i ing like a house afire, and his hair blew | back from his manly brow. Pomeroy already had the sphere when NuI slam med into him all same pile driver. Bing, The little white thing rolled on
 the ground. Franz danced safe if care fully on first and Harry dRob had i cleared the keystone sack on the run. landing safe on third ahead of RoIIys i late recovered throw. F'ergie did the dramatic stunt of flaming. Now is
 Ritchie's turn. Had he selected this hit from stock, and ordered it deliv- cred at the house by special messen-
 ger. it could not have been more so. In fact that was a historic hit, for it
 placed the heart in Phoenix to whip the 1 top notchers. and sawed a clean two
 hundred and fifty points from their f per centage. As this story once said i before it started in to rambIe the hit | was the thing. It travelled comfortably close to the feet of the racing left 1 fielder, and by the time that amiabe | gentleman had arrived where he could l get his large mitts on it, both Robinson ! and Franz-Or Glow. it should be, for i that speedy base runner was in the l crippled kids place-had made good ! their promised voyage homeWard, and 1 the long healthy throw pumped into { ce-WagOn Pringles glove a second too 1 late Meantime Ritchie had been and | gone and went to second.
 i Come to think of it. it was grand good thing that Glow arrived when he l did, for he was the next man up. Said | the Mesa fans, their hearts jumping ! strangely. This is an uncouth lad. He's | famed once and fleWed out two times [ this here game. so we should Worruhl' And worry they did. for the Home 1 Run Glow did it. Had he struck out 1 there had been less excitement. But i he didn't. Two perfectly good swings ] did he waste on Darling's teazers, one 1 ball had he-and the next one kissed 1 the bat fond good bye and went way 1 out east to coax Jones right up to the l fence, where he vainly wfggled his gloved hand at it's swift descending i streak. Naturally, Glow followed ! Ritchie home. and after having touched l the rubber went before the people for q unanimous reelection to the position
 of Home Run Idol of the frenzied Fee hicks pcpulace. The votes in the form of silver dollars rained through the netting, and when Glow had done pick ing up his reward, he had eats money for mOr'n n a week.
 But the epic does not conclude with this verse. It goes on in grand in spring periods for another inning Mesa made vain attempts to climb on board in the ninth, and came within tiniest hairs breadth of doing it. On ! Ferguson's error, Core was safe with i none down. Bond obIigingly famed though he didn't in the least intend so to do. Goodman fished up a foul fowl and fish, you knoW-and Cookie of the peppery playing expunged him from the record with a beautiful catch right in front of the grand stand PringIe. the old cuss, hit safe to right
 
 ling, the heaviest hitting pitcher in the 1 league coming up. For long time the air was full of subdued lightning One,
 two, three, four, five times, Barngrover swung back his old salary member and delivered the ball. and on the fifth,
 Darling got q beauty of hit right be- | tween center and left That is it
 would have been a hit with anybody
 but Harry Robinson in the sun garden
 The C. C. Kid ran clear to center beat
 ing the fast Glow by ten feet, owing to
 his playing clOser-reached a desperate
 glove and as he tripped and went heels over head, the stands could see the lit
 tie white spot in the center of his left
 hand-the spot that was the ball and
 the ball game.
