 PATHETIC INNINGS

Bachelors Is; Benedicts 5.
 This sad score tells the story of an
 alleged baseball game played at War ren park yesterday afternoon between the single men and married men of the C. & A. general offices. The game
 was pathetic and the playing of the | kind that would make a strong man l weep, but the bachelors are in the 1 seventeenth heaven of delight over
 their victory.
 Stars were numerous during the
 game. Count Engelder. shortstop for the Benedicts, counting more than thousand when a grounder bounced up and tagged him on the forehead during the third inning. The ball | bounced from the Counts head and | struck Honus Bankard's glove and re mained there. This miracle was greet
 ed with loud cheers. The cheering was so loud, in fact, that the outfeld- | CTS for the Benedicts almost woke up. Slim Bill Gohring. on first base. faint ed after putting out one of the Bach elors in the seventh round. A pulmot
 or was called into service, however, and Brudder Bill came back in the game few minutes later.
 5eddow Studies Lessons El Irving, who was captain of the Don Luis Braves when that team won the pennant in 1876. played a good game and was the object of many admiring glances from the grandstand Shorty Holcomb and Benjamin Frank | lin Snyder announced before the came that they would each knock six home runs, but failed to keep this promise in spite of encoura ging words from the bleachers and taunts rom the Bachelors.
 Charles the First Perky and Tho maso James Connors, the former baseball demon of the Chicago Stock Yards Tigers, heaved for the single | men. dishing out a brand of curves drops and spit-balls that completely baffled the married men. Iris Amos ovich, the Slovenian terror, made sev- | aral good catches in center field, but almost broke up the game in the | ninth when he crashed through the fence. skidded for several yards ana caught the ball before falling uncon- scious. CZar Nick Beddow. on second base. spent most of his time during the game studying lessons sent out by the Podunk Correspondence School of Accounting. after having given up nope of entertaining any of the mar ried men on second. T. Ambrose Co hen presided at third base when he wasn't over helping Beddow learn the correspondence lessons.
 Umpires Will Recover
 Rastus Q. Hatley, disguised as a left-felder, managed to live through nine innings in spite of the fact that Texas Lavelle. in right field. insisted on trying to sing grand opera. At the conclusion of the game Mir. LavelN. issued statement through his pri- vate secretary that the game yester- day was not like the way we used to play ball back hum in Texas" Paul Stevens played a good game on the bench.
 Johnny Jeuck and Voucher Snider rmpires, came out of the game in fair " good shape. They will recover, ac- oording to rep6fts last night. Amos Demilo Newman, official water carri- or pAnatad a manic ,-bo,, l - . on the field and shouted: Anybody here want a drink?' After the riot had subsided Amos was warned to shout in the future: Anybody here wanta drinka water?"
 Jerry Farrell. of the Benedicts. was lost in the fourth inning when he chased fly as far as Santa Fe. N. M and then decided to stay there. Ty Cobb Wolf stopped in the middle of the game to fix a carburetor on q friends car and inhaled so much gas oline in doing so that he was forbid den to play longer and warned 10 Teep away from lighted cigarettes. Davey. shortstop for the Benedicts ran up and down the diamond so much that he wore a trench into the | ground until only his head was visi- Gle as he futtered hither and yon.
 Celebrated Looters
 Many celebrities were in the grand | stand. The Bachelors lost heart in | Inc last half of the ninth when they heard Irish Maggie, Cousin Jenny.
