in Bout With frankie Britt

Providence, r. l., Sept. IL. =
Johnny Dundee, one of the ranking
lightweights, gave frankie Britt, of
New Bedford, a stiff drubbing in
four of the twelve rounds of their
engagement before a 5000 crowd at
the National A. c. last night. In the
other eight frames the New York
dancing master toyed with the Whal-
ing City gladiator, victor over Ralph
Brady, of New Syracuse, in the same
ring a fortnight ago. Despite the
fact that Dundee failed to travel at
top speed the fans seemed content
with the great ring work of the
Italian, his fast footing, uncanny
use of the ropes and clever defensive
play being roundly cheered.
During the first half dozen rounds
Britt escaped with only a few stiff

when Kline famed and Terry Palmer

MarysviIle Loses Chances.
Marysville lost a number of excep-
tional opportunities to score, the best
being in the sixth inning. After

crowd in right. The squeeze play

BALL" This is the comment made by
one spectator at the two games last
evening. THE best game of ball
ever played on the Island" Such
was the comment made by one OFF,
cial of the old Harrisburg Tri-State
team.

all three games, Merle Gerde5. of
the Marysville team, is leading at
the bat with an average of .429.
Bill Shafer and Harry Wagner, OF
the West End team, have averages
of 1875.
But four errors have been made
in the series, all by the Marysville
team. Three were made on Tues
day and one last night.
Not a single runner attempted to
steal bases last evening. But one
man, Tim Euker, was caught off
base.
But six men were left on base in
last evenings fray. Each team had
trio of men to be stranded.
