Kremer Gets Cold.

Kremer made an unconscious base
hit in the sixth and for a long time
he stood out on the base line without
putting on his sweater. He chilled and
showed It by threshing his arms back
and forth, and somebody on the Pitts
burgh team made mistake by not
taking out sweater to him to pull
over his cold shoulders. And the
break Of the game came here.
kremer was cold when Leiboid went
70 bat. He threw four straight balls.
McNeely ran for Leibold. Rice hit
hard to left feld-so hard that Barn
hart stole a three-bagger from him by
catching the ball on the foul line.

Tie Score Predicted.

Tie Score Predicted.
Washington had gone ahead one
run in the seventh. The first hall of
the ninth found Pittsburgh sullen, be-
cause their early lead had been over
come, but determined, as the game
up to the very last stages had been
going their way. -
Mckechnie. the undemonstrative
manager of the Pirates. with one run
behind, started the. ninth with a sub
stitute batter for. .kremer. The
Pittsburgh pitcher had gone mighty
well, better than many expected, but
not better than Pittsburgh expected,
as he was figured as one of the win
ners of the series for the Westerners.
Bigbee went to bat for. him. He
lifted q fly to center field, and Wash
ington fans heaved sigh of relief
that made nearly as much noise as
the roaring wind which had howled
all the afternoon. Then Moore did
the unexpected by batting a single to
left field, his first hit of the series.
The fans stirred uneasily. Carey laced
single to right and Moore went to
third.
Ten to one the score is tied"
shouted jubilant Pittsburgher.
Bases Are Filled.
Cuyler was hit by. pitched ball
and the bases were filed, with only
one out. The fans sat aghast with
mouths wide open. AS base ball
goes. the odds were five to one that
the score would be tied and almost
that much that Pittsburgh would
win. Pittsburgh expected to see
Marberry crumble. He did not. He
hunched his broad shoulders a little
more in bitter Texas determination
and fouled out Barnhart. the man
who has driven more runs home for
Pittsburgh than any other player this
year. -
The crowd roared with glee and
leaned forward until backs were
bowed like wheat knocked down by
a gale. Then came Traynor, mighty
hitter and a dangerous man to Wash
ington in all this series. He laced a
long fly to McNeely. When Earl
grabbed it after q hard run specta-
tors fairly pitched headforemost in
glee and muscular relaxation and If
the Washington players could have
been grabbed at that particular mo-
ment by the exultant 10000 the
chances are the players would have
been half denuded Of their uniforms.
The original pitchers were Fergu-
son for Washington and Kremer for
Pittsburgh. The Pirate pitcher lasted
through and Ferguson was taken out
in the seventh to let Leibold bat for
him. 1t was chubby little Memo"
who accomplished his mission when
he got the base on balls that Wash.
tngton SO much needed to start the
inning.

THE ONLY CURE

If you can't sleep at night
And your heart seem bad,
And one minute you're happy
And the next you're sad.
And you wander around
In sort of trance,
And you feel sort of glum,
Then want to prance:
If you keep counting your
Money and gaise into space
And see, when you do just
A certain face.
If your mind seems dull,
Then goes in a whirl,
For the love of Mike
Go marry the girl!
