St. Paul at Minneapolis. Detroit at Buffalo. They used to call it Nicollot avenue, but now It's Casey's boulevard, because it passes by Casey park. The stores were closed at sunset and the curfew, when it came, \ found ' a sleepy, downcast city, for St. Paul had won the game. • . • • •'..!•'.-■ '; Anil 2.0 0 rosy-cheeked, exultant Minne- ' apoli'.ans had howled themselves hoarse when they thought the game was won, only to find that they, needed digitalis in stead of i>ine balsam when they were through It was the heart and not the throat that was weakest. . Denz.iT took the Minneapolis team up on a high hill, where they thought they saw a victory. But <it was the subtle, rural Roger, In Mephisto's garb, conning them with the misty mirage of the Brocken; you wouldn't think It of Roger, would you? Hut he did." For one inning he came right out of his cabinet, like the prestidigitateur does when he says "Now watch me and you can any of you do it just as well," and for one Inning the Min neapolis players, and the crowd, too, thought Roger had tipped off all he knew about pitching. But he still had a couple of borrowed watches, a pretty-white rab bit and some other conjurers' parapher nalia stuffed around under his jacket, and he strung the Millers on them like but tons on a string. What If Minneapolis did bunch four runs in the sixth? St. Paul bunched three in the ninth. What if St. Paul did make five errors? Minneapolis saw the Apostles win in the ninth. What if Dan I-ally did fail twice to help the score with men on bases? St. Paul went under the wire with men on bases. The spectators sat as if glued to their seats." A victory they thought was cinch ed had turned to tears. That was why the court house chimes were muffled, and the town seemed like a tomb. Comlskey's men had' made it, not the breaking of the boom. That ninth inning was one of those real old hurdy-gurdy, lam-the-ball. if-you don't-see-the-fence -aim-low, hit-the-ball anyhow. sort of innings. A good deal like a ; Kansas City finish,' with Manning (114) up. V ~~ ..-"-' ;V::" . Two would tie and three win when Is bell came to bat. One, two, three, four, but Bresnahan could not find the plate, and it was pretty near time to set the table, too. Th«*n ? Preston-"went down to the batsman's station and a crashing sound was heard over against the right field'fence. It was not the ice cracking in Powderhorn-Jake; neither was it a Filipino bomb. It was a two-base hit, and after that ; almost anything in the shape of a hit would do. S"pies tried hard, : nut Dixon made a pretty catch under a high foul. Schwartz walked. . It was up to Roger Denzer to save his own game then, and while Roger could not stick out a single, he did what was almost as good. He drove a; hard ball over third base. Andrews tried a double play, but he was pretty lucky to get Preston at third. Roger beat him out on the throw he didn't make and forced in a run. which helped the Saints material ly. It was the chance of a lifetime with Burke, and he put a nice hit out in right field where no one could get at it. That tied the score, for Schwartz came around from second when Wilmot let the ball go between his legs. , There was" less anxiety about what Geier would do in the Comiskeyans' minds, at least, although Bresnahan was more or less disturbed. Phil batted the ball. There were some who believed that it was Abbatichio's er ror that lost the game then and there. Some said that it was Geier's hit. Now that ball was going like a message from Dewey to Montojo when it passed second base, and if it did pass between Abba tichio's feet, he was pretty lucky, for If it had not gone between them but had tried to go through Instead, he would no doubt have had surgeons toying with his tendons, for that ball was on business bent. Not that Abbey, or Batty, or whatever you want to call him, might not have, stopped it if he had been dl i gent. Theseus slew the Minotaur and Hercules made the Augean stables look like a soda fountain, and if Batty had been like them, he might have got his pictures on the sculptures of Athens, but this ball of Geier's wasn't batted in Ath ens; It won the game anyway, for Den zer loped home leisurely. HOW IT STARTED. Davis put a pretty one into Lally's hands as soon as the. men were lined up, but Ttoerer let down on Nance, and four wide ones walked him to first, whence he ■cored on Wilmot's three-base drive to the Lake street fence. Andrews cou'd not find th* ball in three trials, but Geier throw Werden out at first, after a mo mentary delay in getting the ball. liannassau, unlike Cantillon, let Burke walk when a pitched ball hit him, and Geier advanced him a sack with a light tap to Parker. Burke then ptole third, but was caught trying to get home on Glennlvin's grounder to Werden. Glen wont to second on a wild pitch, and fed the score when Lally drove one to center. Lally stole second. Isbell poked the ball to the top stripe on the Nicollet avenue fence, and hobbled to second, while Lally scored A passed ball gave the cripple third, but Preston fanned the air, leaving It two to one in St. Paul's favor. Denzer faHed to get them over for Ab batichio. He afterward caught him nap ping at first, but the umpire would not allow the out. Smith struck out. Glen alvin caught Dixon's fly, but Parker got In a clean hit, right after Isbell had muffed a high foul. Davis put another clean one over second and scored Ab ba tichio for a tie. Roger filled the basss with Nance on four bad ones, G?ier meanwhile losing a chance to get him on a high foul. A single to right was only good for one more run, Preston making a nice throw to the plate, retir ing the side. Spies smashed Parker's first pitch for Disfigured By Skin Scalp and Blood Humors and Loss of Hair Is the condition of thousands. • To all so af flicted, warm baths with ■ Cutioura Soap, gentle anointings with Cuticcra, purest or emollient skin cures, and mild doses of Cuti coba Resolves?, greatest of blood purifiers and humor cures, will cleanse tho system by internal and external 'medication of every eruption and | impurity, | and | constitute j the ■ most effective skin cures, blood purifiers, and humor remedies of modern times- a fine drive to left. Schwartz sacrificed. Denzer hit it hard, but Smith threw him out Burke drove a high one over An drews' head. He got it in his hands but lost it. Spies came in and the score was usain a tie. A wild pitch advanced Burke to second, but Abbatichio threw Geier out and left the honors easy—three and three. Burke took Andrews' short fly and M.iri nassau said he was out, though the Millers' captain claimed Eddie dug it out of the dirt. Geier threw Werden out. Abbatichio again waited out four bad ones, but Smith forced him off. Abbatichio threw Glenalvin out, but Lally drove a clean one over third bas.\ only to be called out at second, trying to stretch it for two. Isbell popped an easy fly. Dixon hit one that struck Denzer like a lump of lead, but he threw it out. Glen tossed Parker out and Davis flew to Is bell. Andews made a neat catch of Preston's low liner and Smith threw Spies out. Ab batichio let Schwartz's grounder go be tween his legs and the little fellow stole second, but Roger gave Smith a light one. Three and three again. Nance put a hard grounder between Geier and Schwartz and was sacrificed to second. Andrews poked a low one at C.lenalvin, who let it get away from him. | An attempted double steal was only par tially successful, but it scored Nan-e. Glen threw Werden out. Parker gave Burke a base, although the fans accused Mannassau, but DlxJn caught Burke at second by live feet. Abbatichio threw out Geier. Glen wait ed for four bad ones and Parker gave Lally an equal mark of favor. Isbell smoie the ball to right field and tied the score, SYllmot's failure to get the ball clearly let ting Glen in from second. Preston's two bagger to the center field fence gave an other run. It was a beautiful drive. Dixon took Spies' sky-scraper. Roger hit Abbatichio and Smith put a single in short right Held. Dixon had fanned at it twice when he got it for a fine two base drive to the fence, back of Lally, tying the score again. Parker put another like it in the same direction for three sacks, making a lead of two for the Millers. Parker was ready to quit any way, and made a pretext of a slide at third to leave the game. Then came more trouble for Denzer. Preston got under Davis' high fly, and then muffed it. Then he threw to second and Schwartz let the ball go through into left field. Davis went to third and Roger walked Nance. It was up to Wilmot to push them around, but he couldn't split the wood, and a waak tap to Denzer held Davis at third, while he went out. Preston held Werden's fly. WITH A NEW TWIRLER. Bresnahan pitched. Schwartz flew to Werden, but Denzer walked on four bal'.s. Burke hit a rakish ball that Smith was lucky to stop, bar fielding for anything further. A wild pitch advanced them. Geier hit the ball nearly to the fence, but Davis reached it. Denzer scored, how ever, and Burke went to third. Glen dropped a high one safe back of short and Burke came in. The Saints needed one to tie and Lally was at the bat. He got it within a few feet of the fence, but Nance was there. At last Abbatichio got a good chance and put a ball over Geier's head. Smith fanned the air again. Dixon struck out, too. Abbatichio stole second, and went to third on Spies' low throw. Roger walked Bresnahan, but Davis could not get the ball back of Denzer, and the pair were stranded. Andrews cleaned up Isbell's drive in fine style and Preston failed to drive it through the polysyllabic second basemin. Bresnahan gave Spies a base and Schwartz's first hit of the season put the Saints in the game again, but Denzer iiew Co right field. Nance walked to first for a fourth time and was forced out. Andrews hit a hot one at Denzer, who stood bravely, but Isbell muffed the throw. Andrews was caught at third, but one run had scorad. Schwartz fumbled but threw Werden out. Burke flew to Davis, but Bresnahan gave Geier four. Little Phil stole second, "Batty" dropping the ball. Gen flew to Nance and again it was up to Lally. A home run would tell, but again it was a fly to Nance. Abbatichio went out on a ball that dropped near the.plate. Smith hit it to left field fence for two sacks. <3len threw Dixon out and caught Bresnahan's high fly. Then came the ninth, as told above. The score: St. Paul. AB. R. H. PO. A E.

FISHER TO TRY IT. He Will See If He Can Excel Den xer's Performance. The St. Paul and Minneapolis base ball clubs will play their second game at Minneapolis at Nicollet park today at 3:45. Fisher and McNeely or Hutchlnson will be the opposing pitchers. The Min neapolis fans feel that they were un justly treated by the umpire in the game of yesterday, according to press dis patches sent out by that city last night, but today is ladles' day over there, and that will no doubt bring out a large at tendance. That of yesterday was in marked contrast with what St. Paul has been drawing the present week. • • • Schwartz has at last gotten a ball through, and it begins to look as though some of the miracle plays that have been cutting down his batting average might be abandoned by their practitioners. Watch the youngster's smoke. • • ♦ Few of the fans of either town recog nized Lally at first in his blue suit. • • • The attendance from St. Paul was very small. It ought to be better today. • • * Bresnahan was sent against the Apos tles at a bad time. They were Just gat ting Parker's measure^ "Say, cap," asked Schwartz, as they were waiting for the morning practice, "how did they ever come to call those things the r bleachers?" "Simple enough," said Glen, as he clean ed the mud out of his heelplate with a chip. "Simple enough," for in 1882-3 Glen coached the college eight-oar, and had a chair as instructor in philology on the side at De Pauw college. "You under stand that language is not an exact science. It is always growing. You and I do not talk like Adam and Eve did." "No, I suppose not," responded Schwartz, interestedly. "Well, what I mean Is that new words are being added to the language all the time. Ball players, for example, talk dif ferently from machinists. When a ma chinist uses the term crank, he refers to one of the forms of the lever, which is one of the simplest forms of applying energy to the doing of work. When a ball player uses the term crank, he means a guy what will spend his cash to see the game." "But where does the bleacher get In?" "I'm coming to that," said Prof. Glen alvln. "There are two kinds of cranks, .base ball cranks, those that pay their way In and those that come on passes. Those THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 12, 1899. that come on passes always sit in the covered stand, but when you see a man in the bleacher you know he is one of the cash variety. Hence the managers came to reoognize that as the place that drew the coin, and as they liked the color of the coin, they called the roofless stand the bleacher because it drew the color out of the people's clothes. See? It's all as simple as can be. Bleacher, you see, is so appropriate to the use to which it is ap plied that from being considered slang, U3 many of the most necessary words of our spoken language once were, it ha« now received the general acceptance of the highest authorities the world over." But Schwartz had been struck dumb with amazement at the varied talents of the captain of the Saints. HOOSIKHS m XCHEIJ HITS. Columbun Beuten v t Home by » Mar- Kin of One Hun. COLUMBUS, 0., May 11.—(Special.)— The Hoosiersbunched their hits in two innings today and won from Columbus by a margin of one.

GOSSIP OF THE DIAMOND. President Loftus has released outfielder Butler. His hand.whlch was injured here last season by an explosion of a giant firecracker the night of July 4, is still bothering him, and Loftus was afraid he would not last through the season. But ler says Manager Allen wants him, but this is not likely, as he is not nearly as good a man as Flynn. With Sharott In form, Allen could not use Butler. Indianapolis has been unfortunate this year in not being able to get players from the Cincinnati club. Whenever the Cin clnnatlg decided to give men to the Hoo slers, one of the regulars *'ould become injured, and that is why the farm has so far been unable to secure Steinfeldt and Hahn. President Johnson has notified Western league managers that' fines assessed against players Trust be paid within three days of mailing the notice. Failure to comply with this rule'wltl necessitate the suspension of the player until the fine is paid. Jimmy Manning has at last been able to convince Jack Boyle that Kansas City is the proper place for him to play this season, and the veteran Philadelphian catcher has become a Cowboy. He will be a valuable man for* any club. Indian apolis tried hard to get him. Two extra Inning games in the Western league Saturday showed that the clubs are gradually rounding into form and getting In line for the-^wason. The ra • this year promises to fteiQloser than any other since the league was organized. McGtnnity, of Baltimore, is still pitch ing winning ball. Ho seems to have for gotten his Kansas City; experiences, and is now working like a -veteran. Leon Wolters, who pitchtd for the Co lumbus club last year and the season be fore, is in the hardware business In Man- Istee, Mich. Buffalo ias turned Fred Roat adiift, and threatens to retire MoQuaid. An exchange announces that Butler, re leased by Columbus, will be signed by Milwaukee. Comlskey has j>ut In a claim for Sammy Nlcol. No Game at Brooklyn. NEW YORK, May IL— The base ball game scheduled for today between the Brooklyn and Washington clubs was postponed on account of rain. SEW YORK FOOT RACES. Hegelman Leads, Imt Guerrero Is Away Back Now. NEW YORK, May 11.— When the sev enty-two-hour foot race started again for today's plugging only eleven men came to the scratch.

Igo had almost a mile the better of Guerrero, but toward evening the lat ter kept gaining and exchanged places with Igo. The rest of the men—Barnes, Day, Hansen, Craig, Noreman and Gary —trailed along in this order. GUck slow ly worked up onto Cox until shortly after 8 o'clock, when he had the latter four laps to the good. .Tust before 10 o'clock Hansen withdrew. The spectators did not take kindly to this move, but subsequent ly news waa brought from his dressing room that he had collapsed entirely. So grave was his condition that his trainers grew alarmed and every method to revive him was without success, ft was flnally necessary to send to Providence hospital for an ambulance. Between 9 and 10 o'clock Geary Btart ed in to cut down the lead which Nore mac had over him. He succeeded in do ing this at 10 o'clock and by 12 o'clock was a good lead ahead.
