The thrills, the moments of elation, and the occasional feelings of fear, the climaxes and the anti-climaxes
which had the fans on tiptoe yesterwhen Hammond shut out the Royal Tigers, were more numerous and twice as real than would be posin the most melodramatic melothat Lincoln J. Carter ever wrote. The only score that was destined to grace the boards was made in the first inning. White, the first man
up, was put out. McMahon got a hit and was followed by Eder, who advanced him to second. Then Fow
ler got a single and scored McMahon from second. The crowd seemed to jump to the conclusion that the Royal Tigers were not so ferocious as their name indicated and settled down in their seats to witness an indifferent game. Before the. second inning was over, however, the aggregation from down state began to look like ball players and the indifferent ones sat up and took notice. The play became faster and faster and the determination of the visitto overcome that lead of one score was shown in every move they made. Some of the stunts which resulted from this teriffic work won
from the occupants of the bleachers
and grandstand, round after round of
applause. By this time the boys from Napanee and Bremen had so
won the hearts of the spectators that
they did not seem to discriminate
upon whom the applause should be
bestowed.
The game reached the climax in the seventh and eighth innings. It was then that the Hammonds, who
had been playing a strong battin
game, succeeded in filling the bases
with only one man out. It seemed
an almost impossible feat for the Ti
gers' pitcher to get out of such a hole
the way the locals were batting, but the fielding of the boys in brown was
impervious to anything but clean hits, and the side was retired before Hammond could do any additional damage to the uniformity of the
score.
Then, apparently to show off our
Donohue, the Hammonds allowed the
Royal Tigers to fill the bases with
only one but and succeeded in duplithe trick. If anything Donowas the coolest pitcher of
two, and seemed to take it for grant
ed that he would repeat the stunt
without difficulty.
The superstitious seemed to fear
the sometimes fatal ninth, but the
boys in brown were unable to rally
and passed up the game. Only one
error marred Hammond's record, while the visitors made three, and as
usual Donohue was just a little bet-
ter than his opponent. The locals
got seven hits to the visitor's four
anrt Donohue struck out seven men to
Tobias five. The bleachers were only comfort
lled. About 400 spectators
in which there wre a liberal sprinkof women, would be a conserva
tive estimate of the attendance. The score:

Sox Beat Jake Stahl's Boys. Washington was defeated by the White Sox yesterday by the score of 5 to 3. Walsh's pitching was largely responsible for the result although the batting of the Sox was also a defactor in securing the deresult. In the seventh Walsh had to do his best to pitch himself
out of a hole but he settled down to
good hard work and th
which were easily fielded retired the
side. Washingtons inability to hit in the ninth lost the Senators their last chance to score.
