As it ended the older fel- lows managed to put the winning tally over the pan in the tenth stansa, the finai score being 4 to 3. The game was one of the most brilliant ever played on the Ellis street grounds, abounding with scintillating plays, and good and bad pitching. Catches by O’Brien, Paulson and Welsh, which were turned into double plays, brought forth the plaudits of the small crowd present. Particularly good was the play of O'Brien’s, for after stabbing“a Texas leaguer back of short field, with his gloved hand near the tops of the grass blades, tho clever little pasture guardian shot the sphere like a rifie bullet to the home pan where what would have been the deciding tally was shut off. Owing to the, threatening weather in the early forenoon, the Pioneers management called up Bridgeport, and cancelled the.game with . Bill ,Maguire’s White Sox. As “Old Sol” peaked through the clouds, and a fine day became the prospect, the mana- | by the strike-out method. ger of the Pirates was communicated with and he adhered to the desires of the south end boys for a game. Opposing each other on the mound was “Bosh” Schmidt for the Pirates anl “Portside” Porteous for the Pion- eers. Of the two hurlers, the south- paw was the steadiest, but the Teu- ton, after working himself into tight places, managed to put something on the pill, and many of the Pioneers strutted back to the bench by the s o. route. Bill Dudack who played shortstop for the Pioneers, fell a vic- tim to the mystifying slants of Schmidt on two occasions. In the! sixth, inning, Schmidt displayed very erratic pitching, issuing free trans-! portation to three batsmen, congest- | ing the bags, and then turned in two strikeouts. With two strikes on Cap- tain Dudack, he uncorked a wild pitch allowing one of:the runners to score, tying up the game, and then a mo- ment later he passed the ‘‘buck” to Stevie by striking him out. A two- base hit by Schmidt and a like slam by Jimmy Crowe produced two of the runs for the losers while daring base running by “Red” Walsh was the cause of the other. The second base- man of the Ploneers showed very poor sportsmanship by trying to trip the fleet “Red” after he had muffed a throw, but was unsuccessful. The 'spectators had lined up on the north side of the grounds in the final stanza, when with two men out, Por- teous slammed a 3 “balooner” to right fleld, it looked all over at this junc- ture, but Hinchliffe ingloriously muffed it and the Pioneers had lite. Clancy hit a single and then Howie Blinn came to the plate. After get- ting two balls on Blinn, Schmidt made the mitake of serving up one to the hitter's liking, well aftér Paulson ‘had finflly stopped the ball in lu u-lvel | Each will toward the right field fence, the me- cessary tally had been produced. It was a tough.game for the Hill boys to lose. g DARCY’S BODY SHIPPED., Remains of Over-Abused Pugilist Sent to His Australia Home.
