DANVILLE LOSES
TO SHIPBUILDERS
Prettiest Game of Season, Mark?
ed by Brilliant Fielding on
Both Sides.
[Special to The Tntics-Dlspatch.]
Danville, Va., May 21_In the pret?
tiest game of the ucuson here, Grimm's
Shipbuilders defeated the Tobaccon?
ists In a gamo which was lntesely ex?
citing from Btart to finish. The vis?
itors on their game In the sixth in?
ning-, when Gaston was pounded for
three two-baggers, which, with a base
on balia, secured them two runs. Their
run In the fourth inning was also
clinched by consecutive hitting.
In this game Oaston was hit hard?
er than in any of the sl\ games he has
yet pitched. McKenzie was very ef?
fective, but was saved from defeat by
phenomenal fielding, notably by Ten
nant In centrofleld, wno made two sen?
sational catches. Had ho failed In
either, two runs would have been
scored. Coates in the left also m*de
a atar catch. It was a scroamer, fall?
ing close to tho fence, but he made It
In splendid fashion. The fielding was
brllllunt on both sides and the game
?b pretty a one as any fan would care
to see. The score: 11

Parts prices ire your taxes. They come to

"Prince Chap" Next Week.
The most decided hit of the present
engagement of Lucille LaVerno and
her players has been mado this week
In Rlda Johnson Young's "The Lottery
Man."' Though built of the stuff of I
which laughs are made, there Is still
enough of the love Interest >? make
the audience follow the thread of the!
story from beginning to end, and like
every moment of It. But it Is the
comedy which is uppermost. There
will bo a matinee this afternoon. To?
morrow night there will bo no oer
lormance, the University college of
Medicine having rented the house for
commencement exercises. Next week
Edward Peple's "The Prince Chap"
will be offered. Mr. Peple is k Rich?
mond author, and a host of friends
will bo glad to witness a performance
of ono of his masterpieces.
Some Rill at the Empire.
Without a single weak act, the cur-'
rent bill at tho Empire Is probably'
the best that has been offered nt that
pretty llttlo ''show shop" since Us
opening. Indeed, the. bill Is of such
uniform excelleneo that It Is some?
what difllc,ult to pick tho headline, act,
though tho "Visions d'Art" is doubt?
less entitled to thnt distinction by
virtue of Its unusual character and
or tho classic beautx of tho form of
the young woman who poses for the

Every act is \?ell worth seeing or

form practically arj "all star" bill.

out of twelve gam's played. Among
these twelve Were some of the strong?
est teams in the State. The team had
little trouble In defeating Randolph-!
MacOn in Petersburg, for Lewis held
them In his power the entire game..
In this game he struck out twelve ,
men and allowed only six scattered
hits. In none of the games pitched
thll Reason has he allowed over seven
hits and <n some games held h's OP-1
ponents to ono and two hits.
Prey, the veteran catcher, has been
playing steady, consistent ball, und
only a few stolen bases have been
chalked up against him.
The Infield, with C. B. Snunders at
first, Painter at second. Wysor at
shortstop and Wool at third, 's one
which would do credit to anv col
lege fam. The outfield, too, with
Bi dinger In left. Atkinson In centre
and K. R. Saunders In r'ght. is ono
I whose ability to handle the bat has
1 been a terror to the colleges they have
pla yed.
The team Is batting about .2SI and
fielding equally as well.
Tliis Is the team which Coach Blg
rle'a undying efforts has turned out,
and It is due to hlr, coaching that the
team thus far has made such a suc?

Raymond. While the Western clubs
nro traveling East the Eastern clubs
will take a rest; thereforo thero will
bs no game tn-rloy at Leo Park. If
McKlnnon really sends Bugs to the
mound It is a cinch that Newnhum
will send Taylor to oppose him. These
two should put up a grand exhlblt'on. i
if Itnymond is In condition he Is one
of the best In tho business In am
league, while Bill Taylor oan hold hit
own against tha best of them. In ad?
dition, these two clubs will bo fighting i
it out for third place, which will make
tho battle nil tho more Interesting.
Following Cincinnati comes Pittsburgh,
then Cleveland and then Chicago, when
every club In tho league will have been
seen at Lee Park.
Having dwelt on the pleasant for a
few brief seconds, thero Is Just one
unpleasant matter to bo discussed
Voung Cook, of tho New York club,
absolutely lost his head In the game
yesterday, and ho was summarily pun?
ished, losing hlo Job and being made to
pay a flno to the magistrate of Hen
rlco county, while still having a little
punishment coming to him from tho
league proper. Still ho should not bo
too harshly dealt with. Of course!
there Is no excuse for Buch ac.tlon as |
his, but ho Is a youngster, barely out of
Ills teens, and even though It may be'
heresy to say so. It Is better to huv%j
to punish one of these fiery youngsters
onco In a ?while than to have ball play?
ers n bsoluteiy lacking In Interest, with
no feeling as to whither the game laj
won or lost, simply working for tha
flnl3h to come and for pay duy.
As for Bill Jordan, he was about tho
maddest man In town aftor the game.
He gave Cook about as severe a lacing
ns It Is possible to hand anybody.
First ho fired him. Th;n ho doducted
the cost of the flno from the county,
and finally bo withheld his pay, waft?
ing to lind what tho president of tho
league would do In tho matter. In all
his long experience?and he has 'been
In baseball quite a fow years?Jordan
declares that this Is tho first time he
htiB ever had one of his hall players
pull anything Quito so rough. Ho left
town ngrettlng It, and he personally
would ho nblo to pay almost uny price
If ho could wlpo It out
With the Westorn clubs coming to
pay Richmond a visit, Lee Park should
play to capacity business every day.
These clubs have bocn put togathcr at
great exponse. They contain sumo ot
tho best ball playors In the business?
that Is, outsldo of the big show. Ths
Westerners have kept the league alive
Tho attendance at tho games In the
West has been far ahead of expecta?
tions, and Interest In the contests are
growing every day, despite tho opposi?
tion from some of the big leagues,
which ore going good. Richmond has
never had a chance to sen ball clubs
from tha big cities of tho West, and a
hearty welcome will probably be ac?
corded them.
Several complaints from Petersburg
hava reached this oirtea relative to the
standing of that club In the league.
If there has been a mistake In this of
flee. It was entirely unintentional, and
further. If It Is a coincidence, every;
other paper in the State has made tho
same mistake. If the standing Is in*
correct it will be corrected.
-
The Colts keep up their winning
streak, nobody holng able to stop them.
If this thing goes on Richmond will
he hoisting two pennants at the end of
tho season.
