Ses. he's a real ball player. that boy. can handle the fast on9 and hits like a streak T hear the kaceys are going to sign him up , to take Olney's place on the bench" "Oh. yes, hell make good in any ca pacity.'
 This was the comment heard after the old Corners had won from the O. and D.. team at the Fairgrounds on Monday evening by a score of 10 to in as riotous a game as has ever been seen on the kacey diamond TO tell the truth. everybody was just waiting for a chance to hand Jack the raspberry but he played such stellar game that the jeers soon changed to cheers. He was fast on the bases ana once beat Umpire Callahan in race from first to second, Callahan having slipped and fell twice during the dis tanoe. It was Harrington's hit that scored the tieing run in the third inn ing and started the rally that contin- ued through the next five innings

In the ninth inning he frightened up and only three men faced him.
 There were many bright spots ir the game and some real base bal playing. Jack Murphy who caught for the haberdashers showed req class and 1t was evident that he was no novice at the game. Bunk Walst also caught an excellent game for the old Corners.
 Jack Gleason in right field enter tained with few acrobatic stunt; giving a clever exhibition of the nost dive Bill Harrington was also a brigh light among the many stars. Bllf' slide to second would have put T. Cobb to shame but it sure did rattl' Bills teeth. Jim Sheridan also play ed a wonderful game both in the fielC and on the coachig lines. Jims mos remarkable feat was his slide to frs base after he had been forced out a second. Jim didn't know he was ou so when the ball was thrown to frs for a double play he made a wonder ful slide to the bag only to find occupied.
 PorEly Tom FitE played a. geoC game in the field and a better on at bat the only trouble being his in ability to hit safely. Red McKenn' suffered the only casualty of tn, game when his old mate at the Su' Base hit him in the shins with tn ball
