BASEBALL

The St. Paul City Railway Co.'s base
were given a lesson in baseball Saturday
afternoon, when they were shown the way
to the decisive victory of IL to 1, in an
eight inning contest. ~..
Officiating as leading role of professor"
for the local aggregation was the "Big
Chief" Pr, pilot and moundsman. His
lessons were of the mystic type and fur
Their study of geometry was recommended
to the visitors as an aid in solving the
pitchers shoots. They swung where they
wasn't and ten laid down their war clubs
at the plate without smelling the ball. The
Big Chief" famed three in row in the
fourth round, after Johnson, the first man
up had got safely on the runway by Dts
error. In the fifth fracas, he got three
assists in row and he struckout the first
two up in the sixth. 1t was in the seventh
round that the visitors received their only
bad lesson during the afternoons perfor-
mances and professor" Pr quietly told the
students to ignore them. With the game
well in hand and with the ST. Paul City's
Railway Men swinging wildly at the ball,
the local fielders became lax and tired of
nothing to do so they'let up little, which
was partly responsible for the visitors
lonely run. In fact Pr and Wor did most
of the work during the afternoon. This is
said with all due respect to the willingness
of the other players.
Speaking about willingness, the local
fans never saw a more willing lineup than
the ST. Paul City Railway bunch. They
tried hard all the way and up to the last
man to face the "Big Chief" they pulled
hard for batting rally. Although de-
feated, the visitors were far from bad
ball club and being on the small end of the
count was no disgrace. They had a neat
little right-handed pitcher in Houck and
during the early chapters of the game he
pitched shutout ball. Johnson, their third

baseman, was the head of his class at the
plate for he garnered the only hit for extra
bases and it developed into huke home
run. Three hits were all the visitors made,
while the locals pounded out fourteen.
Four hits and Kriegers error were re-
sponsble for the locals three runs in the
fourth round, three hits, two sacrifices and
one wild pitch accounted for two more in
the fifth, while three hits were recorded in
the sixth and only one run registered. In
the seventh frame three runs were made
off two hits sacrifice, and an error by
Houch and Minard. Three more in the
eighth off couple of passes on balls,
couple of hits and an error by Bross.
The visitors lonely run came in the last
frame after two hands were out. Krieger
was thrown out, Eos to Hen and Bross
was tossed out, Shu to Hen. Johnson wal
loped one out to left field for three stations
and was allowed to stretch it into home
run on Wor's error. Collins was thrown
out, Pr to Hen that retired the side and
ended the game.

guage the hybrid car circulated intermit-
tently, but it baked entirely in alien hands.
About the time he had concluded to use it
for a hen coop the Flying Rollers of Ben
ton Harbor decreed it sinful for one of
their sect to use domestic or jungle animals
as beasts of burden, and Doc persuaded
them to buy the White Ghost Somehow
he managed to cover the forty miles to
Bentor Harbor, but when the White Ghost
saw the long haired prophets it gave
tired sigh and expired on the spot. Faith
healing failed to resurrect it, so for
time the Flying Rollers neither flew nor
rolled, and the White Ghost became per-
manent haunt in the vicinity of Benton
Harbor.

OLIVER EVANS, DREAMER
Scorer. r. S.

Oliver Evans, was dreamer. Yet,
though people laughed and called him
visionary, his dreams were of practical
sort. In 1904 according to the Mentor, he
invented the forerunner of the motor car.
tie had already invented steam engine
and had predicted that time would come
when people would travel in stages moved
by steam at the rate of from fifteen to
twenty miles an hour. 1t is no wonder
that people spoke of him disparagingly as
a dreamer
His chance to show that motor cars were
practicable came when the city of Phila-
delPhla decided to do some cleaning round
its docks. Evans received commission to
devise steam dredging machine. He
made it; but he did more than that, for his
dredging machine, which he named the
Digger, ran by its own power both on land
and on water. 1t was exhibited at Phila-
delphia, and Evans ran it round Central
Square; the public was asked to paw
shilling apiece for the privilege of looking
at it, Half of the proceeds were to 90 to
the workmen who had built the Digger
and half were to go to Evans to be used
to perfect the ccntrivance. Then the Dig
ger was run to the Schuylkill River and
with stern propeller rugged on it went
down into the Delaware. On the way it
overlook and passed many sailing craft

PEN POINTERS

Hank! Listen to the music of the pick
in the hard coal mines.
Flies so thick that they stalled a train.
They ought to remove the cowcatchers
and put on a swatter.
Ford's tin currency system would get the
country ratified.
A mule can't pull while kicking neither
can you.
Mary had a little lamb as you've been
told before, but have you heard she passed
her plate and had a little more?
1t is wiser to lay something by for a
snowy day.
Money may talk but only for those who
hold it tight.
AS the miners return to work the country
can settle down while consumers settle I'D.
A man with the seven year itch has
steady job.

AN EXPLANATION AND A REQUEST

"The low, staccato, rythmic hum as the
trucks of the all-steel monster struck the
fsh-plates of the rails,-" from the
eighth installment of "Reminiscences" has
rect; and we want to say that we are
sincerely glad to have same called to our
attention: Now, that is said without the
least bit of sarcasm or Representatives,
The fact that such mistakes are noticed
proves conclusively that our "staff" is be-
ing read with interest. That is crafty
ing indeed; but chiefly we are pleased
with the friendly criticism. We are never
too old to learn; and it is possible that we
may try to earn our "hotcakes" by the
pen, so, what would be more helpful than
the friendly criticism of our efforts while
here? One brother, who is skilled me-
chanic and railroad man called our at
tention to the mistake, adding a discourse
on railway maintenance and locomotion
that is very Illuminating, for which, thanks
is hereby acknowledged. Now, about the
error in question we can only say that the
word "hshplates," to our mind, was what
held rails together and we found nothing
contradictory in our dictionary(F and WIS
latest) nor was there anything very en-
tightening about the word, so, it was used,
hastily however. About the "hum" will
only ask you to recall railroad trip;
does not the constant "clickety-click, click
ety-click" soon assume the nature of
steady "hum?" Will welcome criticism
at any time, in fact, ask it.
r. L. NJ: Read with. genuine pleasure
and interest your facile discourse on the
writing game; and expectantly await your
further efforts. What pleased us most,
however, was your generous statement that
"Reminiscences" inspired your article.
Surely, our efforts have not been in vain.
Assuredly, more will follow, in the light
of such splendid reciprocity.
