 Two Hits In One Frame
 It would be futile to narrate de- tailed account of Thursdays game, as 1t was such a massacre. One thing oc- cured in the last half of the eighth, however, that have never seen hap pen in a baseball game before.

 bases were made off the combined deliveries of Messrs Suggs, Stew art and Barger.

SchIIldt's grounder and Sugf sacrificed him to second. Ritter struck out. but Ebbie's con trol was minus quantity a. this tuncture, and he walked Graff and Mayer in succession. This filled the sacks.
