Aga'n HilHry Swalm was theblgstoneof the diiiiHond yesterday afternoon at Na tional Park, and he and seven other Sena tors defeated the Brooklyns in a game replete with sensational catches and In cideutally some glaring errors in the out! iW. Only five hits were made off the tall sveamore of the Buokeye Stale, and be pitched with as much vigor as the bide bound Populist shouted for Coxey when the latter was nominated for gov emor the other day at Columbus. The Trolley Dodgers, tried every con ccUablc way to rattle the yearling, but lie kept right along, putting the ball some v. horf- uf&r the plate. He was a little wild and rent six. men to bases on bails and bit one, but with men on bases he was remarkably steady. Abbey wa- exceedingly fast and hi ligl-tning throw to Wrigleyin the first cut Jones dow n atthird. He also captured two difficult flies At the bat he found Payne ut two opportune times. The Senatorial shortstop's fielding was as sensational as one of Tillman's anti Cleveland speeches in the upper branch of Congress DeMontreville went way out of his way to throttle the desires of several Trollej Dodgers, and he very gra ciously 4td unostentatiously prevented them from swelling their batting averages by marvelous catches. His one error was of the excuble kind, and it availed naught, as a moment later be completed a double play with Tccker in fast fashion. At the bat be was progressive the first two times up, and then fell orf. Selbaoh covered a great deal of ground In the latter part of the game and in the last two innings he retired four m2n. They were not diificult flies, but never tholes." he had to get on a swift move to handle the leather. O'Brien bit the ball each time at the bat, but onlj reached first once, but that time his run was earned. He has fhowu wonderful activity of feet and mind of late and the spectators gave him much encouragement. He retii ed the last man of the visitors by Jumping in the air and pulling down Ehindle's liner. Tbd Old Roman of the Statesmen had Ids strong right arm with him yesterday, and two base runners died at second. The old man. bovvever, got too gay at first and Southslder Payne caught him napping by about three f&it. There were three men on earned bases when Zeke "Wrigley came to the bat in the sixth inning, and the visitors one run to the gord The first ball was a btrike Rnd the next a ball. "Hit at any old ball ' yelled an enthusiastic rooter. Wrig ley, suiting his action to the kindly advice, caught the next ball square on the nose. It wjpat Into short left center and two runs bcored Cy S walm won applause by bang ing a long fly to Jones, on which Abbey i ccorcu. Tom Brown's humiliation was akin to the little boy who stuck his finger in the pie and was caught in the triok. He struck out three times, muffed two files, and let Barrill's hit get away But then these Epclls come to good as well as mediocre players. Payne was touched up in a lively manner, hut he fielded his position in clever style. Bhoch and G. Smith were also strong in the field, and their work had much to do -with keeping the score down Giii'fiu again dropped a fly, although his record only will be affected, as the batsman got no farther than first bas", Anderson horribly misjudged Abbey's fly In the eighth, which resulted In two runs. The Soaators scored two runs in the first after they had retired the Brooklyns by eharp fielding. Eelbach sent the ball into the bleachers and tipped his cap as he crossed the plate -with a homer. DeMontreville lilt tafely, out was forced at cecorid by McGulre, who came home on Tucker's long two-bagger. Paype was very effective until the tlxth, tbfeu Tucker, O'Brien, Abbey, and fy'rfgley HugU-d, and on Swaim's Hy to Tight the third run went over the plate .-kiting Two more were scored In the eighth, on anti-jag; i A marvelous caro Xcr I miUMi-ENNESS, -canbcirivensecretlyai home It Is harmless.
