IN A GRAND GOOD GAME
Young "Cy Young Pitched in Mid-season
Form, Letting Trolley-dodgers
Down With Three Hits New
' Men Show Up Well.
Boston, April 13. Tenney's men open
ed their season by making splendid one;
to nothing victory over Brooklyn yes
terday afternoon. .Young "Cy" Young'
was in the box for the home te-atn, and
pitched mid-season ball, allowing the
visitots but three scattered liits. Stric
lect was touched up for six .5: its, which
were also well scattered.
But it was Striclett's- generosity that
resulted in the only score of the game,
and that came in the first inning. Bates,
the first man up for Boston, was given
a- free' pas, and .went to second and
third respectively on Tenney's and Beau
mont's outs.' Howard was the man with
the goods and he came to the bat and
sent out clean single, bringing in little
Bates. Bridwell was the third out by
way of the pitcher.
' It looked like more scores for - the
locals in the aecond inning, when Alper
man fumbled Ititchcy's grounder and
Brain placed one between Casey and
Lewis. On the hit Ritchey went to
third and after Needham - had popped
out and Young was sawing away at the
air, Brain stole second. Bates couldn't
bring them in, however, going out on
a grounder to Casev.
Brooklyn's best chance to score came
in the first inning after 'Young had
passed Maloney. Casey sacrificed and
i.umiey s out sent Jlaioney to third.
Jordan w-as next up, but" he couldn't
help matters, dying in his try to Ritchey.
After that Brooklyn never got bevond
second. Besides holding them with his
pitching, Young also fielded Ws position
magnificently. One- particularly good
play was the way lie nabbed a sizzling
grounder from Jordan'g bat in th fourth
inning and cut off Lumley at aeoond,
after the latter had made the nVst hit
for hi side, and Bridwell completed the
double by hurling to Tenney in time.
The crow:d cheered frantically.
lie other two hits off loung were a
single by Jordan in tlie seventh and a
double by Alpeiman in tho eighth. Tho
latter was run down between second and
third" immediately afterwards on But
ler's grounder to Brain.
(All other games called off because
of rain or snow.)

wide at this point) end entered the gulf,
only by the color of the water, 'which
began to show a deeper and deeper shado
of blue as we left tho mainland. Pass
ing along by Sambol to its southern
extremity, we enter "Blind Pass," awing
around Buck key and enter a litrte,
cove on the east coast of Captiva, and
tie up at a snmll landing among tha
mangoves.
Tassing up the landing through the
mangoes, we come out on a sloping
shore, covered with dense, growth of
scrubby semi-tropical vegetation, e-f
which I would like to give a descrip
tion, but will limit this to one op two
which interested me -very much. Tlio
mango, or mangove, aeems to be tho
dividing line between the sea and tho
land and continually v like Oliver Twist,
searching out for more.
I crushed, twisted and wormed my
way down through the dense mass of
growth to the very water's edg for somo
fine specimjs, where the branches over
hanging ttie water dropped down ten
dons or root until they touched tho
witter, until one could not tell the origi
nal tree from the scores and hundreds
of others connected with it, senna with
the root tip five or six feet branching
out in every direction like a luige spider.
At low tide, from where I stood, could
be seen tons and hundreds of ton. of
oysters, the fibre of the roots growing in
and around the shell and the shell cling
ing to the wood and all one solid, insep
arable mass. I succeeded in getting
some fine specimens of the roots and
tho s-hell inseparable,'
Another (to me) interesting tree the
natives called the gum tree, a species
of rubber. As I stuck my knife blade
into the. bark a fluid white as milk ail, I
as sticky as glue would drip like sap
from a tree, and about as thick as
syrup.
The, island is about half a mile wid"
at this point and composed entirely of
shell, washed 'up by the action of the
waves or some, storiu. After supper we
crossed over to the gulf s,ide and took
our first plunge into the deep, blue, briny
gulf, und coming back and to our bunk
to sleep like Infants, or, as one remarked
the next morning, some of slept like a
log with the faw running through it.
