CLERKS WIN FROM MILL TEAM
-
Players Evenly Matched Fans Want
t " to See Another Game.
Fay Le Q row's frisky clerks won
from tbe Mill company team in a well
played ball game yesterday afternoon,
and I. John Dobson lost bis uniform
in a tussle with joyous rooters.
The game was played in nifty style
before a large crowd, stores and tus
iness houses closed. Lawyer Watts
officiated satisfactorily as umpire, and
escaped without being mobbed for
tank deoisions.
Tbe clerks opened the matiues in
tbe first, when Dell scored. From
then there was nothing to it tut giu
gersnap fielding until the ninth, when
Dell and Newsoni made it throe to
nothing for tbe counterjumpors. And
then it happened.
Bert Cartano, who was holding sec
ond for tho clerks triod to stop a
groundor from DePeatt's tat, ty fall
ing ou it. Bert fell too late, the ball
was slow in getting to Weir, and De
Peatt wa3safe, Stanton fanned and
DoPeatt stole second and soored when
Billy Littlujohu stnug out a two
Lugger. Starr luoed out one for two
stations, scoring Litllejohu. Just
about this time mill stock was soaring
around par, and it looked like any
body's old game when "Lefty" Smith
singled and Starr went to third. But
Willaby few out and the game was
over.
Tbe rooting was certainly warm,
but good nntured; aud if any one ex
pected to see u burlesque game, ho
wbb disappointed for the real article
was served up. Good plays were made
ou both sides, and it s a toss up which
of the two teams is the best. There
are a wbolo lot of poople who think
another game or two should be played
to dooido the question. Thosoore:
