PENTERS AND ALLIES.

A tale of divers doings on the dia-
mond; a story of misfortune, most
of which was done to the black
smiths. The carpenters and plumb
ers made the men of Drawn and mus
Gle look like three cents in Mexican
money in a baseball tussle at the Ely
grounds last Sunday. Suffering bear
cats! The score was somewhere in
the neighborhood of 20 to 4.
The game lacked excitement. so
that the fans and fanettes got to
chewing the rag about various things
such as the weather and that a choc-
olate sundae had a pineapple concoc-
ton of the same variety backed off
the map. About this time a black
smith on the sideIines was heard to
remark: Its cruel, unfeeling
world and respecter of only few
worthy persons"
1t was an innocent and harmless
amusement ,strikingly like the merry
go-round of pleasant memory, both as

Brown and Zobernick. the big lea
guers, did the battery work for the
losers during the closing moments of
the game, but the session had al
ready been lost, as the allied forces
satnered eleven runs in the first
frame. Numerous errors on the In
field and those in the outer garden
aided their descent into oblivion. The
fielders strutted around like a ban

One of the Browns shoots seemed
to be coming dangerously close to
Edward Oas, the pitcher for the wood
butchers and their associates. Oas
