The second was Spoke's in Boston. There were runners on the bases and Walsh hit a line fly almost ight to centre. Speaker was playing middle distance, ready to make a throw to the plate. He turned and went back at top speed, ran in an arc, without looking up until right againet the fence in front of the bleachers.

With thirteen hard, clean smacks they sent Davy Jones in sorrow to his locker. ‘The Sox thumped Thormy for eight clouts, but hits held‘apart start no panics. In the fourth inning straws on the winds of victory began wigwagging our way and a happy suspicion arose within me that Jonesy was due for a Jousting. For Pipp singled and while the ‘Babe's cfoud smacker to right was nailed by Hooper yet we all saw that it dropped only about three feet short of the fence. Lewis gave fair promise for the day by grinding a hit through Foster at third for a sin- gle. Del Pratt lined into the mitt of McInnis at first, who threw it over, crumpling Pipp on his arrival at third. No runs. No runs of course, but prospects shining. Sti the sixth, which found both sides scoreless, gave us plenty of worry. It did, indeed. Looked like the Red Sox were going to clamp their molars on the bit and start gal- loping free. Menowsky began with a diff to right. He was cheated of a two-bagger by Del Pratt's run for the drive. Del only managed to slap a glove on it, but broke the speed and distance of the wallop. Hendryx flied out to left but Mcinnis stabbed the pill straight between Thormy’s legs for a single. Foster tried the same stuff 1t Thormy nabbed this one and cut off Menowsky at third. But Scott's smoker passed Thormy before he time to make a move for it and Molnnis jingied in. “You will, will yer?” snorts young Yank Ward taking up the club. Bing! Single to right. “You will, will yer?” says Yank Peck. Bam! Single to left. The loyal home hooray stuff started right then. But—darn it!— ‘Ward tried to stretch his advance all the way from first to third on this short left single, kind of hesitated af- ter leaving second, then decided he'd better keep plugging anyway, but was put to sleep by Foster at the bag. Pipp shot it toward second and Peck whs forced. Hooray stuff pretty weak by this time. Two out and nothing made of two hits, But up came the hooray stuff heartily again. Louder and louder it grew. For Babe Ruth stood before us, “Oh, Babe!” came up from at least five thousand throats, a mixed cry of admiration and imploration. Davy Jones was nervous—very. ‘There was one strike and three balls— | wide and high—and the crowd booed the disgust they felt in the convic- tion that Jones meant to pass Babe. And then—it happened! The ball was P| sailing about as high as the Babe's waistline when with a lightning swoosh of his sceptre the King stung the pore ole bulb.

Seldom have [ heard such a mighty uproar even at the Polo Grounds. It lasted long after the Babe with a new gem .adding lustre to his much bejewelled King bonnet had doffed his working cap and ducked into the Yank hut. In 80 far as was necessary this won the game, for of course Pipp had” jaunted in ahead of Babe. But there was no knowing that then, so the Yanks continued to do business in run goods. Jonesy sadly slipped over many Sour ones that Lewis walke Pratt socked it so fiercely to second that McNally couldn't hold it, and with Lewis on second and Pratt on first, Signor Pinga da Bode entered the day’s honor list by jacking the sphere at 100 miles a second to centre.

But Duffy Lewis a: saulted Jonesy for a single, sending the Babe bouncing to third, and Dei Pratt's single bounced the Babe al! the way back to home and cradle. The seventh tally was achieved in the eighth in this wise: Ruel dropped a short fly safely to left. Thormy- went out, pitcher to first, but sent Ruel to second. Ruel shot for third. Jonesy had pitched a wide one towa: the plate in expectation of the steal. But the pitch was so wide and low it was wild and got by Walters, so Ruel was safe on the portal to the home. Ward still had a home-run hunch. There'll be they to-day who'll say his dream came true. Anyway, he smacked it low and fast. It seemed, te my eyes, to have hit the edge of the top ridge of the right field bleacher fence. Huggins and his men all clustered around Ump Dineen de- manding that Ward be awarded a home run on it. Under the new rules, a ball batted so that it strikes the top of the bleacher fence is accorded a home-run rating. But Dineen decided amid mighty groans from the mult!- tude that the bounce back into the field from the fence reduced the wal lop from the star grade of a homer to a mere two-bagger. A stern man and a most short-tempered one is Ump Dinny, and with hot words he shooed the Yankees back to their coop. Ah, well, permit me to extend my sympathy, Ward, old top. But other- wise, it was a most happy day, thank you. Scene—Brooklyn home, Time—Af- ternoon. Willie Fan: Ma, can I go to the game? Ma Fan: Certainly ,Willie, it's a most healthful recreation.
