In the opening game Weimer \v.:.s in the box for the visitors, and he had the Saints complete ly at his mercy from start to finish, al lowing but three hits and ke ping these at least three innings apart, In the sec ond inning Andrews got a in on the ball and put it over Miller's h a.l in left field for three hags. Th!s gave the fans some hope thai Weimer mis'r.t net be 3^> hard a rij osition as he has teen tout <d, but they were mistaken. Not again I'.y.i'A the sixth inning did he allow any thing that approached a ht. In th s inning Werden put the ball through the diamond for a clean single, Mi: there were two out ahe^ad of him, and Brain, who followed, fanned. In the ninth Ryan drove the ball through the short field for a base, and reached third en the varioU3 plays that followed, but he cou'.d not get in. Thon Wilson were at the ; oints for the Saints, and "Pop" sufie-el his iirsi defeat this season. In spfte Of the fact that the locals k>Bt, Thomas pltch good same of ball. He allowed but eight hit-- and ki-i t them well sjattsrel, but live fielding errors behind him tell 3 the tale, and it is made Bi.*rongir when it is known t;;.:t not one of the four runs I !iv the visitors was e;:rn d. TABLES TURNED IX SECOND. In the second game the tables were turned. MeGill and Holmes were called on to niak>- pood for the Saints, and they won out hands down. Willie n liv/f.l beau's men but three hits, and. none of them figured in ihe one run scored by the visitors. This came through Dillard's muff of Robinson's lung' fly in center. Before Pat could get the ball aek, Rob- Inson had reached third, and Messaer al lowed him to score on the ihr >\vu-ln. It was the general impression of many in the grand stand that Robinson ki: ke 1 the ball when it was thrown to Bra!n In the effort to cut him off at third, but M-s-mer refused to see it, and Robinson trott'efl home. Tt was in this second gama that Brain won . v. rlasting glory for himself by putting the ball far out in the left liold for the llrst home run that has been made on the Lexington grounds thi3 sea son. And lluggins got into the game with his stick by planting the tall in left center for three bags. In the sec ond nning of this game Crocks received a hurt hand from a high fly off Seville's bat, and Holly was railed int > thtgame, taking the short field, whi'e Huggins went to second. In this game Dillard also replaced 'ogan in center. He had but one chance in the field and he missed that, but his batting eye has evidently returnpd, for he landed on the ball for three safe drives. Wolfe did the twirling for the visitors in the second game, and pitched the easiest bnll that Ins locals have scon this year. Every one hut Rya n connected safely with the ball at least oncp. The Saints scored their enly run in the first sume in the second inning. Brain was first up and flew out to Hardesty Andrews put the ball in deep left for three hags find came in on Huggins' hit to the infield, Huggins landed safely on first base owing to the fact that an ef fort was made to cut Andrews off at the plate. Wilson and Thomas followed and both fanned. The visitors tied the score in thelrr half on Seville's three-bagger and O'Bricn's long fly to the outfield Their next two scorea came in the fourth. Hardcsty went out on a line fly to Huggins. Beville reached first on Cogan's mutt and went half way ro.ind the circuit before the ball was' fielded in. O'Brien flew out to Huggins. Rob> lnson also hit to Huggins and the youngster made a, bad fumble and before he coi!ld recover Robinson was on first nnd Ueville on third. Both scored on Messett's hit. Weimer drew a base on balls, but Ketchum retired the side with a strike out. The final sccre for the visitors c&mc In the seventh. Hartman reached first on Ryan's muff and went to second on the play Miller flew out to Crooks. Hardesty hit to center for a base. «>gan made a bad mess of the throw-fn nnd ilartman scored. Hardesty was cuupht In an effort to steal second Seville hit iafely, but OBri.-n sent a line drive to Brain, which the latten caughl and the side was cut. The score- Kirsi Game, Sl• IMii!- AB. R. 11.

"Pop" Thomas has lost his first game, but it was not a disgraceful defeat, and he is loss to blame than the rest of them. With JL'iilard's three hits in the last game, it would have been easy money, and amsther series would have been add <•;( to K\ ,-in's string. H.i:. played a beautiful game at short after Crooks left the game. He hai? liv chances and accepted them all". Two ! wen- difficult flics that he gathered in in ; a most sensational manner, after ha;-'! runs. On one he turned a complete com- j ersault, but hung onto the. ball. The ! other was a one-handed catch at the end of a hard run and a jump Into the air. McGill was in excellent form yesterday, j If Ryan had only known it, he might i have had him pitch both games, for Wil- | lie is the boy that can do the trick when i he is on his mettle. Hardesty managed to land three more | errors in yesterday's games. After hay- j ing Huggins it would drive the local j fans crazy to sec some one playing St. '■ Paul's short field after the manner in I which it la covered by Hardesty. Mr. Weimer is quite a pitcher—one of the best that St. Paul has rubbed up against. In aJdition to letting the Saints down with t'aree hits, he made ten of them fan. Ryan anO ('norm had a bad time in the outfield in t!ii' first game. Ryan let two flics get away from him, one of which ; should have been an easy out. Oogan ] also landed a team of bad ones, and fail- i ed to make good with the stick. EVKN BREAK IX MINNEAPOLIS. MINNEAPOLIS, May 28.—A close de cision in the ninth of the second game j this afternoon made the double-header ' an even break. With one out and Me- | Creedlc on first, Congalton sent one to the fence. McCreedie scored, but Bren nan called t'ongalton out at third, and the home team's chances we're gone. Scores: FIRST GAME. r.

CHICAGO, May 28.—Garry Herman, the king of Western three-year-olds, made his first appearance of the season today at Hawthorne and at last answer ed the question as to whether he is to be a i.m tor in the American derby.

Boney Boy and Garry Herrman being the only starters. Garry Herrman cut out the pace, with Boney Boy right at his heels. Strangest was unable te keep up and dropped out of it at the half mile pole. Turning in to the stretch Boney Boy made his chal lenge, and it wa:s a strong one. x-lerr man resisted vigorously, but despite his efforts the four-year-old got a nock in front. Woods drew his whip.

Garry Herrman won the race on courage alone, and is undoubtely one of the greatest horses that, ever lived. He was un questionably - .ort of condition, and to day's race should do him a great deal of good. He conceded Boney Boy 22 pounds, but was a 7 10 10 favorite in the betting.
