ELLAM'S GREAT FIELDING
 SAVED DAY FOR BARONS

Without losing the fraction of second $ time to recover himself he wheeled and threw without apparently looking at first base. The ball went straight and true to the extended digits of Covington and Mullen was retired by q step. The play saved fhe game for the Barons, as Me Cormick would almost certainly have scored on the hit.
 Mcdonald hadn't made the sembance or hit up to the fatal fourteenth and Merritt evidently became careless, as he looped up a slow curve which broke around McDonald's knees. It didn't ex- actly break, it only started to break as with q healthy uppercut the Baron third baseman, with swing like a golfer driving from tee, met Mir. Reach squarely in the middle and it sailed high and far. landing in the top tiers of the left held bleachers. Mcdonald hit from the right hand side against the local left handler.

i. M'DONALD'S HOMER PROVES HARD BLOW TO TURTLES

While the Barons only registered five hits, three of them were good for extra bases and McDonalds wallop came like bolt out of a clear sky and was a joy Killer to the fair-sized Saturday crowd in attendance. Notwithstanding that the hitting was extremely light, there were opportunities and both clubs seemed des- tined to score, but some splendid fielding play would pull the pitcher out of the hole. There were four double plays made during the matinee, each club pulling off q pair of killings.
 While Mcdonald was the player to whom the Baron victory was due, Roy Ellam and Carlton Molesworth on sev- eral occasions saved the game and kept the Turtles from putting over the win ming count, Ellams work especially de- priving the Turtles of at least one run by marvellous stop and throw.
 1t happened in the last half of the ninth inning. After Coyle and Stark had been retired Mccormick uncorked a dou- ble to left. Mullen came up and hit sharply through the box. The ball was hit so hard that Brown had no chance to even knock it down and the spec tators rose in their seats preparatory to watching Mccormick race to the plate The ball had passed over second base and lam, crossing on the dead run, extended his gloved hand in a desperate effort and intercepted the speeding sphere.

Anglo-German Prince in Fix

London-The position of the young Duke of Brunswick is a very uncomfort- able one at present. He is the son-n- law of the Kaiser. and the nominal head of the army of his duchy. At the same time he is British prince and Is liable to be shot as a traitor no matter which side he adopts. The Kaiser insists that the young prince shall take his place at the head of his famous Black Brunswick CTS He has applied for permission to leave Germany and to live in the Meth crlands or some other neutral state. but 1t is not at all likely that the permis- sion will be granted.
