SPORTING NOTES poor showing against the Cleveland club in i Bs ae tieal™ Browas Were Easy as Usual. The Brooklyn club was at St. Louis yesterday, and, of course, secured another easy victory, hitting Donohue when hits meant runs, and their fielding errors were not costly. St. Louis fielded very good yesterday, but their batting eyes were missing. Somehow the Browns cannot get their fielding and batting eyes to focus in unison. McMahon pitched the last five in- nings and not a hit was made off his de- livery. Croemnuoner cooucnssoolM Louis, 1; Brooklyn, 3. = Murphy, LaChance, —Griitin, es.

The Philadelphias had an easy thing of it last week at Louisville and St. Louis, but this week they appear to be up against ihe real thing, and yesterday at Cincinnati dropped their second game of the week to the Red Legs by a score of 13 to 3. Cap- tain Ewing’s men made ten runs off of Taylor in the first two innings and only three off of Johnson in the last seven. Dammann pitched good ball for the home club and his support was almost perfect. CINCINNATI: PHILADELPHIA, Messrs. Wagner and Schmelz found a Jewel in Charley when they signed him to play third base for the Senators. Reilly Stands, sixtt In fielding and eighth in bat- ting among the league's twelve third base men. Al. Selbach is apparently getting back in- to the: game with both feet. The latest averages out place him at the head of the left telders’in fielding his position, and at -321 as a sticker. McGuire ts about due for a brace now with the stick, and then will come O'Brien's turn. CMoNiday of the Cincinnatis manages to get a hit when it is needed.

On Friday Ehret’s two-bagger gave the Reds a run, a Rhine's single brought in the winning tally. ~ Fraser of the Louisvilles has given thir- ty-fixe, men-Dases on balls since the open- ing of the season, which is an average of a little over famr each game. He leads the league in this respect. “The Baltimores are in as good shape this season as they were last year,” said Jennings. “We are winning just as many games as we expected, and will soon play a faster game.” Louisville papers are roasting the Colo- nels. Says one: “McCreery held Boyle's drive in order to give the wheels in his head time to revolve. When he had-made up his mind .where to throw it was too te. He could easily have retired the man at second.” Two marvelous plays were made Satur- day at Cleveland. Collins ran in and caught a bunt pop fly from Blake's bat with one hand and doubled up Wallace, who had started from first.

Captain-Manager Joyce had his eye on the ball yesterday with a vengeance, ham- mering out four three-baggers. Gleason played a great game at second for New York, getting 15 out of 16 chances. NEW YORK: Heights and vicinity. In age and size they were hardly fair competitors for the La- Sayettes, but just the same they outplayed them both in the field and at the bat. The game was full of exciting incidents, and a number of really clever plays were made by both sides. The Woodleys were last at bat, and when they came up for the ninth inning the La- fayettes were one run to the good. Two men went out and it looked as though it was all over. The third man, however, got his base on an error, and a couple of bad plays following, he was able to reach the plate. The next up was young Vermillion, a lad who is not much bigger than his bat. “Quaker” came to the front. Enterprise Cycle Co., 012-814 14TH ST.
