The embryo cyclone which
the city icstenlay afternoon,
blew over
and which
was followed by a Uocd of rain, destroyed
the chances or the Senators and Cmcm
uatis playing the hiht j?aine of the sens
and from a local tnndiioint, jirevented
Joyce's men Irom adinuii&termc; a hard
ana ile-ervcd drubluiiK to Buck'.-, bumjitious
braves.
Sniartmc under the defeats and disap
pointments of the two dajs previous,
Joyce and his. lieutenants weie cocked and
pruned for revenge. Tliey only wautetl a
chance to "j;et at 'em," that they might,
mo lar a, possible, even up the bcorc of
the bealniKS administered them by the
airirrecatiou ot job-lots from the "Pans
oi .menca," who have momentarily, so u
speak, usurped lirst place in the pennant
race.
Tne Reds went out to the grounds yes
terday but no sooner had they arrived I linn
the storm drove them under the shelter
or the grandstand, and with much trepi
dation tiicv held on to the chairs ab the
fury of the elements whistled and roared
oeV the skeleton edifice.
The scarehead stories or the St. Loui"
catastrophe, as told in The Tunes extras,
further generated a panicky feeling :md
Buck and his Braves heartily wished that
they were elsewhere than in Air. Wagner's
new cantilever.
HOY WAS QUIHT.
"Why don't you keep quiet. like me?"
said Uoy to Ewing on his rirfgers when
he noticed Buck's lips quivering as ir
uttering groans or saying prayers, "yon
should be glad or it. as tho'-e Senators
are due to win this afterroon and would
make a inghtiul show ot ub ir they had a
chance."
But Buck was not to be jollied with tl--wind
blowing Tift miles an hour and no
hole in the ground easy of access, and he
continued to shiver and shake until the
last vestige or the simoon had disappeaied
to tfie northeast.
While Boreas was skylarking around in
Ills new spring suit the Senators wen
ensconced as nug as a bug In a rug in their
dressing room" under the stand, and paid
no attention to the hullabaloo outside
further than to express a unanimous wish
that it wouldn't prevent a game.
Maul was slated to pitch and ''Smiling
Al" said ills arm was as easy as oil. The
boys wen anxious for a go with the KecU
and were soreh disappointed when Jupiter
Pluvius followed up Boreas with an act
that was continuous until night spread her
sable shade over the diamond.
The ("meinnatis will leave tins morning
at 10 o'clock for Baltimore and take a
chance at the Orioles with the hope that
their marvelous luck will not desert them.
But it can hardly hold out much longer.
PITTSBIJKGS PLAY' TODAY.
The nex-t visitors to engage the Senators
will be the piratical Pittsburgs, who -will
arrive this morning and play their first
game of the '9G season at National Park
this afternoon.
The Pirate- won nt Boston jesterdav, and
will come to Washington full of ginger.
Connv Mack will probably put ex-Senator
Killeu on the rubber with Sugden to
receive his southpnw delivery.
Capt. Joyce decided last night to send
"Silver" King to the box for the came
today, and will attach "Old Reliable" Jim
Mctiuirc to the other end ot the battery
The initial performance of "Silver" in
the two innings at Chicago, last Sun
day, is enough to inspire confidence in the
local fans, und a large crowd will be
in attendance, as it will also be ladies'
day.
uapt Joyce, Jack Crooks, and "Silver"
King, whose families anil relations are in
St. Loins, had heard no bad news from
their folks in the cyclone-stricken city
up to last night, and they are of the
opinion that their kindred escaped the
storm's devastation.
Immediately after the game this after
noon the Benators will leave for Pittsburg
for the Decoration Day games in that city
tomorrow monling and afternoon, and will
return Sundriy -ind play Pat Tebeau's
Spiders at National Park Monday.
PITTSnunG DEFEATS BOSTON.
It "Was a Grent Pitchers' Battle, bnt
the Tlrut'ss Fielded "Uetter.
Boston, Mass. ..May 28. Ic was a pitchers'
battle today. Ilawley and Dolan were
both very effective but the former had
the better support and therefore won.
Harrington played poorly and Bergen was
useless behind the bat, utterly failing to
throw to second. Long was unable to
play and was sadly missed Bannon fail
ing to over ground, though lie made no
errors. Lyons work at third and a bril
liant running catch by Ely were the feat

Connie Mack's smoked Italians.
And "Silver" King will pitch his first
game.
The Senators have lost two games by
rain one at LouisvllleandagaiuatNational
Park yesterday.
There will he no gold watches, umbrellas,
or yellow-ribbon-tled boxes distributed
at National Park today and perhaps the
Senators Will win.
The Senators and Pirates will leave to
gether tonight tor Pittsburg ror the Decora
tion Day gamesin theSmoky City tomorrow
morning and afternoon.
The Phillies did not "shoot the chute"
yesterday.. It was such a stormy day
that they held back, nud allowed the
Chicagos to take a ride.
The ticket sellersaud takers and the other
oflicials at National Park now wear neat
white duck caps, which distinguish them
from the crowd and affords a convenience
to patrons who may wish information.
It wa- too bad that the cyclone and ruin
blew up just as the Senator were fixing
to make a killing off or Buck's Braves. It
lias certainly been a lianl luck week so far
for Joyce and his men.
Mr. Wagner will spend Decoration Day
and the Sunday following with Mrs. Wag
ner and the babies at Philadelphia. He
has been away from his family over two
weeks, the longest period 1 1 absence since
he lias owned and operated a ball club.
"I never saw a bow-legged man that
wasn't a fleet tunner," said Davenport at
Wednesday'sgame. "Just watchBlllvBow
legs Lush steal secoud in a minute." Sure
enough. Billy purloined the sack and scored
right behind Capt. Joyce when Selbach hit
for two bases.
Hawley won a game yesterday, and had
to go bare headed until he reached the
hotel, when he could purchase a new hat.
Every victory adds onc-uuarter to the size
of Hawlcv's headgear. While at Pittsburg
rcccntlv the Senators cut Hawley's sweat
band down to 0 1-8. which is h:s usual size.
The ctt'ran Chad wick says Hawlev has a
ten thousand dollar arm and a ten cent
head. About right.
The Decoration Day game at National
Park will be between the Washington Light
Infantry and the District Commissioners,
or the Departmental League. These are
strong teams and fans are sure to get full
return for their admission money by lend
ing their nttendnnce. Theleagueisdeserv
ing of a liberal patronage and with such
an attraction as the above-named clubs
National Park should be packed tomorrow
arteruoon.
The Pittsburgs arc getting plenty of
travel. Thev came from Boston to Wash
ington, then jump back home for Decoration
Da v. and then return to'Biltimore Monday.
Including yesterday's game at Boston they
will have played live games by Monday
night and traveled something near 2.000
miles. Pretty fast moving and quite enough
to break a club down. But then it should
be remembered that the Pirates are awlul
tough.
"According to mv Judgment." said J.
Earl Wagner yesterday. "Germany Smith,
of the Cincinnatis, is the stendicstshortstop
in the profession. He iB not at all senr.i
tional. hut he goes along dav after day
playing the same even game. He attempts
no grand stand erfects. being a player of
the old school who believes that winning
games is more essential than catching the
plaudits of the rrowd bv a little circus
work. As an all around ballplayer Jennings
is Germany's superior, but, for clean, con
sistent work nt short field, the Cincinnati
1 man is easily the best ln the League. Others

hctrogenous aggregation leading such chilis
as Cleveland. Chicago, Baltimore, Boston

awry and the least expected often happens.
It Is indeed a game or guess dnu a purvenue
Is Just as liable to pick a winner as is
the veteran long schooled in the sport.
So much ror the Cincinnatis. '
Before the rain set in rcsterday. and
while the Senators were tossing the ball
around ,it me park, it was noticed that
the pocket in Crooks' unirorm shirt -was
bulging out. "What huve- you there.
Jack? "asked a djed-lii-the-wool. who had
gone out. to the grounds light after eating
his lunch. "Never miim," said Jack,
mysteriously, "you just wait until Dummy
lluv comes out here, and i" l don't out
a quietus on that spook business he is
working on us I'll throw every rabbit
foot I nave into the sewer. Then the
young cyclone come and Jack's oppor
tunity to "double cross" the dumtnv was
lost lor the time being. "But I'll get
him yet." said Jack, as he walked to
the dressing-room. "I am going to stop
this hootloo racket: see ir 1 oon t."
"Do you suppose they will let me come in
tomorrow with a washerwoman' basket?"
asked Davenport, or The 'limes man, yes
terday afternoon "Why, certainly; with
anything vou choose to bring along ex
cept eggs," was tne answer; "out why the
basket?" "Well, you see.'.' said Daven
port, "I am coming out, litre every arter
uoon rooting my lungs out for the Sena
tors and they are giving me the marble
heart in return. I think if I would give
Genie a big basket he might capture some
of those pop-ups that the Cincinnatis seem
to delight in looping over his territory.
Watch lor me and the basket tomorrow."
Evening Times. "I did not get out to
the pane this alteriioon," said Davenport
last night, "I supposed the 'cyclone' and
Hood would hinder proceedings between
the Senators and the Reds, and then, again,
water has a bad effect on a wicker basket.
If it gets damp it is liable to swell up
and bust. But 1 will he on hand tomorrow
against Pittsburg and the first Senator that
drops a fly shall be presented with the
basket the next time he comes to bat."
"ir we can get Hawley to going on our
home grounds like we nud him in Pittb
burg," suid Capt. Joyce, "we will have
a wnole lot or fun at tue park the day
he pitches against us. We put him up
jn the uir like a cvclone had struck him
and even turned the Pittsburg rooters
against him. Crooks was Hawley's special
aggravation. What Jack said to him
rrom the lines nobody could hear except
iiawiey nut ins words certainty penetrated
the weak spot that Is covered by a cap."
"Back in the eighties," said Davenport,
there was a player in tin- Pacific Coast
League by the name of Dugan. He was a
good man and a great favorite witli the
fans but paying alimony droe him from
the slope. There were six cities in the
league and uugan paiu alimony in every
one or them. .No sooner would his club
arrive In a place than a Mrs. Dugan and
several small Dugans would show up and
take a slice out of his salary. He was
the most married ball player I ever saw
or heard or not excepting Latham in his
palmy days. After paying his numerous
ex-wives he wouldn't have enough money
left to buy chewing tobacco so he jumped
the league and came East under an as
sumed name and may be playing in some
one of the minor organizations in this sec
tion at present Tor all I know."
