MaroOns Take Four Run Lead In First Frame and Never Lose Advantage. Natives Bat Like Fiends, Getting Fifteen Hits.
SMILEY TNNINCIBLE.
 SCOTT GETS HOMER
Fielding of Natives Shows Up Locals Who Fail to Climb to Victory Even With Two Pitchers Working.

Tn the presence of more than 1OOO little willing workers who went down 10 Grant Park for the purpose of see ing q fast exhibition of the glorious old national pastime and were disappolnt- ed upon gazing at the locals picking crop of ivory from the thickness Of the trees that grew around the infield. The Naroons who opened the game with a good exhibition of how to make few runs with which to decorate the score board in the first spasm, kept the lead they thus obtained, played metOphori- cal and actual rings around the Phoe- nix team and closed the agony in the last of the ninth with a fast double play with the score of eleven to three. From the time the umpire called play ball until the crowd began melting from the grand stand. the locals never had the ghost of a show. It would have been a clean defeat even had the score not been increased over the lead the natives made in the first frame, but as it was. the locals in the good ness of their hearts presented the na- tives with various and sundry punches of ivory fruit until the final account showed nearly a four to one advan- tage.
 At that it was not so bad a game from the standpoint of those who at tended to see somthing doing. The game never relaxed from the first. If nothing else could be done the locals marched bravely into the breach ana either threw the ball away somewhere where nobody would find it, or else presented the Maroons with something they were not expecting. Most of the if 0 little hit nf bOtb The finn beginning in the first slowed up in the second whn the Phoenix team insisted that DelgadO the heaviest and sloWest runner for the Maroons should run for Smiley when he reached first on a good hit. The MaroOns took toll for this in hit and runs without number, and play cd it back when the locals wanted a man to run for Barngrover. insisting that the new white Hope. one Ramsey. weight $50. should do the running if Barney needed any rest. It was a good return for a poor policy exposed by the Phoenix team, and the lesson may count for something in the future.
 After all of this Bargrover struck out ten men. He couldn't do it all himself and after fourteen hits had carved from his delivery he gave way to a new white hope smoke artist who had speed to burn and was minus control to such an ex- tent that he hit one man. passed two and struck out two That was as far as he could go.
 As for Smoke Smiley and his team mates. they showed pep and oddles of it from the first to the last At no time was the tall Mexican in danger While he allowed nine hits and struck our but five men. with the exception Of the pebbles made by Butler in the short garden, the team worked behind him like cIOckworl and gave fast exhibition. The Maroons put the game away on the ice block in the first inning, and buried it litsle bit deeper each time around.
 This Is How it Was.
 Barngrover took the mound look ing tired. il was whispered that he was. and Austin. first up 10 make him more so poked one into th Warren garden for two bases But Ter up. grounded out Ritchie to first and Pasmedo-yclept Chief Lewis. was granted free transportation.

 Gooch doubled for his first up, for Phoenix. but Warren went out Smiley to Scott.
