For the first three Innings of the game between Indianapolis and St. Paul at Washington Park yesterday afternoon the Fhilltplnos seemed to be in a state of lethargy or under the influence of a peculiar kind of dopei a3 they could do nothing with tho Saints' twirler, and seemed to throw away chances to score in a willful manner. But .what aa awakening there was! With the visitors two runs to the good when the Hooslers went to1 bat In the last of, the fourth, the latter showed that they were not In dreamland or anywhere near the Land of Dop. They opened , up on . Mr. Chech, and when they cashed lh for that round Indianapolis was one run to the good. It was then a case of the Hooslers getting as many as they wanted, while the Saints were blp.nked during the remaining .Innings, the final score resulting 13 to 2 in favor of Indianapolis. The Saints put up a miserable game of ball, the absence of Manager Mike Kelley being very noticeable in the Infield work. He was on a scout after players, and "Wheeler went to first, while Clingman was assigned to duty at the third sack. Cllngman made a bad muss of things, but his efforts were not much worse than those of Pete O'Brien, the former Hoosler. who now cavorts around the shortstop territory for Bt. Paul. O'Brien chalked up three very large and yellow errors, and his willow work was very weak. At times the Sants made .matters Interesting, and Lawler, gardener In center, made one of the most sensational plays of the contest when he gathered in Carr's long fly In the sixth, after a very desperate run. Two little mlsplays helped to mar the brilliant work of the Hooslers, but while the fielding was not perfect the stick work was a balm to the fans. Beginning with the fourth inning the Hoosiers wielded the timber like regular foresters and a few batting averages were padded. Dickey was out of the game with a sprained anklo and Haydon was at first, wfth Ortlicb behind the bat.' "SUNSET LIMITED" UNDER WAY. Newlin was pitted against Chech. After the "Sunset Limited" got well under way 4ic iii.iii;u an niic v - deadly to the efforts of the Apostles to hit safely. Only five hits were chalked up against him during the entire game, and after the third Inning there was nothing doing In the hitting line until the eighth, when two hits were registered, but tne side retired wunoui a run. The batting of McCreery. Carr, Swander and Ileydon was of the brand that wins games, while the other Hoosiers got Into the game now and then, and even Newlin poked a couple of singles into safe spots. ; The Saints were the first to score. Nothing was doing in the first inning, but one was placed opposite the visitors on the score board m the second. Wheeler reached flr3t on an Infield hit and went to third on Clingman's single. Wheeler trotted home when Marcan flew out to McCreery. The Saints were lucky in the . field In the last half and deprived . the Hooslers of a chance to score. In the first part of the fourth inning the Saints made their second and last tally, which was decidedly unearned. Spooner walked and was forced by Wheeler. The latter pilfered second and went to third on Ortlieb's wild throw to Magoon. Newlin t?ot crossed and a wild pitched permitted Wheeler to canter home. The Hoosiers set their trap for a victory In the last half of the fourth and piled up four tallies. McCreery drew transportation. Swander bunted safely and Carr beat out an infield attempt, McCreery scoring when Wheeler dropped the throw. Carr stole second, and when O'Brien let the throw get bv him Swander trotted to the register, ifeydon went out. but Hess's single scored Carr. Ortlleb flew out. Newlin singled and Ilogrlever walked, filling the bags, but Magoon was retired. TWO IN THE FIFTH. Two were added in the fifth on McCreery's double, Swander's single and Heydon's safe one past first. Ortlieb started the sixth with a twfbagger and Newlin hit down the third-base line, Clingman making a wild throw to first, which permitted Ortlieb to core and Newlin to advance to third. Hogrievcr's fly-out to Jackson scored Newlin. The last of the eighth, when the Hoosiers chalked tip six runs, was a sort of a hippodrome, three of the runs being forced across the plate on batters being "hit by Chech and on a base on balls. Hogriever reached first as a starter on O'Brien's fumble. Magoon drew a pass and McCreery beat out a bunt. Swander's seventh rib on his starboard side stopped an inshoot and he took his base, forcing Hogriever across the plate. Carr singled and. Magoon scored. Heydon's little single sent McCreery home and Hess was hit, forcing in Swander. Ortlieb was passed, moving the men up a peg. Carr scoring. Newlln's out was the first one in the inning, but Hogriever flew to left, Ileydon scoring. Magoon singled to left and Hess was caught at the plate. The Saints were retired in one, two, three order in the ninth. Score :

Williams or Allemang will do the pitch ing for the Hoosiers to-day. It is very likely that Johnny Fisher will be pitted against the Saints to-morrow. Several of the hits made by the Hoosiers looked as if they might have been soaked in tabasco. Mike Kelly will Join hl3 team to-day and there should be a great change In the playing of the Saints. . It was Clingman's first game of the season and his work showed that he is not in any kind of shape. Dickey will be out of the game for sev eral days, as his ankle was more badly sprained than at first supposed. Pete O'Brien had an off day at the Saints' shortstop. It reminded some of the fans of days he had when wearing a Hoosler uniform. St. Paul was so easy yesterday that the game was not as Interesting as it might have been. Yet it is better to win by a big score than to lose. Swander, Carr, McCreery and Ileydon continue to do the bulk of the hitting. Who would trade McCreery for Coulter now or Swander for any man who has covered left field for the Hoosiers for a number of seasons? ROOT IS HELPING KELLY GET IN SHAPE Clever Middlewcights in Training for Ten-Round Bout in This City. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CHICAGO, April 28. Two of the busiest boxers now in Chicago are Hugo Kelly, the Western middleweight champion, and Jack (Twin) Sullivan, of Boston, 'who holds the title of Eastern champion of that division. Since they were matched last Monday by the Indianapolis Athletic Club to box ten rounds in that city for a decision, on May 11, they have been training in this city and to-day both announced that they will have no trouble In making the weight, 158 pounds, at 3 o'clock on the day of the contest. Both are now only a few pounds overweight, but they will be down to 158 pounds or under within a week. Sullivan is working out with his brother, Mike Sullivan, and a number of other men are boxing with him daily after he finishes his road work and gymnasium stunts. .Kelly is busy at his gymnasium and every morning he takes a long run on the road. His training camp will soon include Jack Root and probably. Tommy Ryan will come here" to ' help prepare the Chicago man for the meeting with, the Easterner. This match has attracted considerable attention In Chicago and it is probable there will be a large crowd of Windy City sports at the ringside in Indianapolis the night the two old rivals meet. !Mo Tenm from Ynle.

Six hits netted them one lone run, while the 'varsity players scored fourteen. I. U. made but three errors and found Brown for a total of seventeen hits.

Bohnstadt has a bad arm and as he Is the mainstay of the pitching department his loss will be a great one. An effort was made to postpone the game, but this could not be effected. Bohnstadt will endeavor to pitch the opening innings but' after that Diddle or Schmidt will be put in the box, probably the former, Llndiey going to his place In left field. The new suits will be ready In about a week. Instead of the four letters, M. T. H. S. across the front, there will probably be only the English "M" on the pocket.

SEVENTEEN ERRORS COST NJRDUE A GAME Boiler Makers Fumbled and Missed Many Chances, Wisconsin Winning Easily. HUNTER BADLY HURT Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind., April 28. Seventeen errors in rapid succession were the cause of an overwhelming defeat for the Purdue baseball team this afternoon, Wisconsin winning by a score of 14 to 1. The work of the Boilermakers was the poorest exhibition of baseball Imaginable, the infielders being the worst offenders. Purdue started in Btrong, but a flagrant error by AVilson In the fourth Inning started the balloon soaring and from that time on the Badgers trotted around the bases at will. The infleldera fumbled and dropped the ball, threw wild and missed chance after chance. Penlck pitched a fairly good game, but grew discouraged at the lack of the support and was hit easily. Hunter, Purdue's third baseman, hurt his knee in the third inning-, and was carried from the field, and Miles was substituted. Lewis, who pitched for Wisconsin, was an enigma to the Purdue batters, who could not hit when the occasion demanded. Penick's three-base hit In the fourth inning, scoring Fogle, saved Purdue from a shut-out Score: R H E Purdue 0 0 01 0 0 0 0 01 6 17 Wisconsin 0 0 1 5 0 4 3 1 0-14 9 5 Batteries Purdue, Penlck and Cook; Wisconsin, Lewis, and Leahy.

In the S0-yard run Hill took first place. King; second and Shiel third. Time, 2:10. The 440-yard dash was run off in fine time, Rhodehamel, of last year's relay team, covering the distance in IS) flat. Wheeler and Wolfe took second and third places, respectively. DujtKan did not run. but he will take charge of this event In all of tho school's meets. Because of the fact that only twelve men are to be taken to Culver each one of this number must make one good first or two seconds. Johnson is doing good work in the hish jump and also in the broad Jump, winning this event last year. He may enter the?e events at Culver. Captain Duxgan will enter the low hurdles. 4V)-yard dah and some of the sprints; Hollie Shldeler, tiie hurdles; Qulnn.
