Baby Lewis started Off the fifth
with a Slashing drive to left, which
Gould let through him. Blonde recov-
cred quickly enough to save himself
an error, and held Baby at first. Bar
row was safe when Bell gathered in
his roller, and fondled it, while both
runners were dashing into their re-
spective bases. Buster Brown laid
down pretty cunt, and was out at
first, advancing the runners, a peg
each. Wolfe then caught one on the
nose and drove it TO deep left, but
Gould was again under it. The infant
scored easily on the catch.
Mack Lewis opened the lucky sew
enth with d hard drive over second

one to the same spot, Barrow filled the
bases, when he beat out an infieId
drive between first and second. Mack
scored when Sanchez threw to catch
him at the plate on Browns roller. The
hardhitting Wolfe breezed, and BECKER
flied out to short center but Baby
came home when Bush Bell turned
in one OF his famous underhand throws
to first. which Sanchez stopped but
could not recover in time to retire
his man. Sanchez caught Barrow try

and finished the inning for the Kids.
They gathered another in the eighth

The D'Alembertes turned in their
lone count in the fifth, which was
opened by Angelo with a hard drive to
right Gould popped one to short right,
which EIsey dropped after a hard run,
but Harry was robbed Of hit, when
the ToOasco Kid threw out Angelo
at second. Anderson MARKED, and Ora
ham hit a hard one to Elsey. The Kid
had plenty of time, but threw wild to
second, Gould coming all the way home
on the throw, but Anderson was caught
sliding into third, by a perfect throw
from left, with Baby Lewis on the
receiving end. The only other hit OBJ
tanned by the Druggists was made by
Farinas in the third, but as two were
out at the time, it resulted in nothing,
as Van Matre rolled to first.
Lewis had the Druggists under con-
troll at all times, and his handling of
the wet ball left nothing to be de-
sired. He showed great work in the
few instances when the Druggists had
men on bases, and should have had
shut-out. but for the wild throw to

With Uncle Joe on the bench the
Kids showed great Improvement over
their last previous records, and played
great ball. BY taking this game, the
Whitmans have the edge on the Drug

more game to be classed as the cham

take two games, and to do this they
will have to put up a better article OF

After a wretched exhibition shown
by them on their last APP, ct;rance, min
gIed with errors Of commission and
omission-Uncle Joe being absent on
account of sickness-the Handy Kids
came back, and played the Druggists
off their feet, and took the first game
of a series of three to decide the pen
nant winners. The onslaught which
greeted their star pitcher, Farinas, was
similar to that turned on the once
famous Bender by the Boston Braves
a few days ago. and like the Chief,
Farinas retired, his opponents having
batted him for a total of eight hits,
and six runs.
The heavy rain which occurred about
an hour or two before the game left
the ground in pretty bad shape, and
was the cause of the srna.I crowd in
attendance. After a good deal of work
on the diamond ii was ready for the
game, and the teams took their places

ADJUSTMENTS
At The Isis Today.

photoplay patrons OF Pensacola will
be presented with an unusual offering
today.
Jack W. Ke-rigan is the feature at
traction Mr.. Kerrigan is very popular

time in the history of film manufac-
turing, a photopIay actor has been
required to play the part of his own
father in the same scene with himself.
To the lay mind this sounds impOsSi-
BILE, but the difficult double exposure
has lent itself to one more unbelievable
task and has. with the competent di-
rection of Jacques Jaccard and the
finished acting of Jack Kerrlgan,
achieved a masterpiece in the drama of
