Nine STARS TRIMMED AGAIN.
Fast St. John Aggregation Taken into
Camp by Locals for Second Time
This Season-Napoleonvi the
Enemy Tomorrow.

The Nine Stars of St. John went
down in defeat before the speedy
DonaldsonVille team for the second
time this season in a hotly-contest-
ed game at A-muz-u Park last Sun
day afternoon, the count being 4 to
2. Songy, on the firing line for the
visitors, was as wild as an English
suffragette, and to his generosity in
issuing dead-head transportation is
directly attributable the loss of the
game by the aggregation of twink
lers, three of the four runs annexed
by the, home gladiators having re-
suited from passes. D'A1emberte, the
local HEAVIER, also lacked control, I'M
zcorking a couple of wild pitches in
the initial session which materially
assisted the ST. John boys in put
ting run across the pan A
furry of rain at the outset of the
pastime made the bali wet and Slip
perry, and this accounts in large
measure for the inability of the two
riflemen to locate the plate during
the first few frames. Both twirlers
had the Indian sign on the opposing
sticksmiths when it came to connect
ing safely with the sphere, however,
Songy holding the Donaldsonvillians
to two measly sWats, while D'Alem-
berte let the Stars down with trio
OF bingles, one Of which was a
scratch tap down the third-base line.
The visitors scored at the start
when Portals third strike got away
from Creoli, the runner stealing Sec
ond, advancing to third On a wild
pitch and crossing the rubber on a
hit by Paul. In the sixth T. Abadie
sent slow roller to Tearney, who
threw wild to first, giVinS the runner
an extra base. He scored from sec
ond when Bouchereau muffed an easy
fly to right.
In the locals half of the second
S1moneaux Travelled to first on a
pass, went to second when the catch
er threw wild to nip hi1- off the bag,
scurried to third as Bouchereau was
thrown out at first on his slam to
snort, and scored on wild pitch.
richards ''watchful waiting earned
MN a free trip to the first station
and he promptly pilfered the second
sack, subsequently journeying to
third On wild pitch and completing
WE circuit on squeeze play, Creoli
welding the willow In the seventh
DAlemberte reached first via the
base on balls route Begue sent
roller to third which r. Ahadie made
a mess of, both runners being safe.
Leblanc lifted a fly to left. which
was dropped, D'Alemberte and Begue
scoring.
Features of the game were two
last double plays by the locals in the
third and fifth innings, Richard to
to Richard, and Simo |
neaux to Richard. simoneaux furth- |
er covered himself with glory by a
spectacular stop of a sizzler to short
IN the sixth session and a lightning
[ast throw to first, retiring the run
ner.
