Sam Hubbell, of the Newark Bears,
attempted the old iron man stunt yes
terday at Newark, but won only one
game. In the first inning of the first
contest Jersey City got three runs
mostly due to errors by Harpin. Jer-
sey City won this game, 8 to 2. After
that first round, Hubbell settled down
and no Skeeter saw the plate again
Newark won the second game, which
went seven innings, by 4 to 0 score
Hubbell pitched fifteen scoreless in
nings.
Jersey City, after winning the first
battle, started out at lively clip by
getting two men on in the first inning
Of the second game, with one out, but
Hubbell put on the brakes.
Harpin got Newark's first run, when
he beat out hit and took an extra
base on Hehl's wild throw. Miller
grounded out, but Swigler swatted for
single to centre. and Harpin regis
stole, and Hubbell and Downey fol-
lowed with safe cracks. netting two
more runs. Shay made the fourth run
in the fifth, when ne singled and stole
second and third, scoring on bad
throw to third. Miller lost triple by
failing to touch second. Horsey, act
ing manager of the Skeeters, was ban
ished for complaining about a decision

disgraced by the performances Of this
Lady yesterday afternoon. This flly
won impressively in a stiff drive, max
ing a run gamely through the stretch
and standing the gaff nobly through
the final sixteenth. She beat Kiss
Again, the odda-on favorite-not only
beat her, but outgamed her in the
final hundreds yards, and was going
away at the end.
Lady Rosebud, in rather light at 109
pounds, was only one of constella-
tion Of outsiders that knocked the dope
into cooked hat throughout the af-
ternoon. W. R. Goes Kiss Aagain, with
c. Fairbrother in the saddle, was con-
sidered an absolutely moral certainty.
The majority Of the players climbed
aboard at almost any price and ham,
mered the odds from to to 7 to 10.
Lady Rosebud. on the other hand, was
painfully neglected until almost post
time her odds opening from 10 to to
IL to l.
Those who ventured sentiment
against cool-headed reason did SO, ap-
parently in the vague hope of knock
ing down favorite in a day of disas-
ter to favorites.
Only five Juveniles faced Starter
Mars Cassidy for this feature. AS a
matter of fact, but three had been
nominated to so. Joyful and Auntie
were added. Buxton got the last men
toned off we'll, and for time threat
ened walkover. He crowded Auntie
out to a lead of two lengths before
the first bend, a lead which he main
tanned all around the turn. But when
Aunties, which carried top weight of
1l9 pounds, got as far as the stretch
she quit cold und0r Buxton. This
jockey knows how to use the whip.
1t is doubtful if dynamite, however,
would have stirred Auntie, once she
decided she had gone far enough.
The favorite, Kiss Again, which had
fought it out with Lady Rosebud
through the first quarter and which
had shaken the Lady on the turn, went
out after Auntie's scalp, once straight
ened for the dash home. 1t did not
take Kiss Again long to pull Aunie s
cork. Form players were Just setting
themselves for cheer at last, when
Collins began to make his run with

favorite, Kiss Again, appeared to hang
just at the end and tho best chance OF
the day for a popular victory went
a-glimmering.
