All told, the Sox amassed a total o
four hits off the celebrated pitcher,
plainly indicating something wa
wrong. There were times when Walte
seemed in pretty fair form. In the second Inning he fanned Hal Chase and Ray Schalk in rapid succession, and
in the seventh he turned the same trick
on Jack Fournier and Buck Weaver.
But at no time during the game did he strike out three men in a row and not once did he fan a fellow on three

teraay. ana that went a long way to- dentist. Leach Cross, on Tuesday night, ward recompensing the Trojan for a j juiy 39, went through an impressive stiff neck with which Dame Fortune workout at the St. Ignatius Club gymsaddled him on this anniversary of his j nasium yesterday afternoon. While firs appearance on earth. ; Baldwin did not extend himself at any The wry neck, which was so sore time In his workouts with Hobo
the manager could hardly turn his I
head, did not keep him out of the game. He could not look the pitchers squarely in the eye without twisting his whole body in that direction. Nevertheless the Trojan cuffed out twl base hits, one of which figured in the rally which tied the score in the sixth round. Evers also performed a porch climbing feat In the fourth period, robbing Lord of a long hit and Boston of a tally when tallies looked big. In consequence of the day's work and its result Evers allowed It was one of the pleasantest of his numerous birthdays.
JOHNSON PITCHES FOR WASHINGTON: FINALJCORE. 2-1 Cal Takes Out Russell to Save Him After Errors Give Senators Runs.
Dougherty and Johnny Schiff, his ease of style and complete mastery of the boxing game were apparent, and Cross should have considerable difficulty in holding him off to the limit. Baldwin comes to the coast with a record as a tough customer to handle in the ring. Baldwin does not believe In training too strenuously at the start and while his workout yesterday was of the usual length, three rounds with each of his two sparring partners, Matty did not seem to extend himself at any time.
Leach Cross traveled six rounds with
Louis Reese and Johnny O'Leary, going
three rounds with each, and in addi
tion went through the full routine of
gymnasium work. Cross showed ex
cellent form and appears to be in the
best of condition.
Ad Wolgast and Johnny Dundee, who
are to meet in the Vernon arena on
Admission day, were both interested
spectators at the Cross workout yes
terday. Wolgast's manager, Tom Jones
will be here In a few days, when final arrangements for the bout will be
completed.

up a fight between Charles Bell of
owa City, colored, and "Packy" Brown
of Tennessee, another negro, scheduled
for an improvised ring on the banks of
the Iowa river, a few miles from town,
esterday. The sheriff threatened 100
attendants with arrest and the mill ended before a blow was Btruck, as the
officer arrived before the preliminaries
were started.
Walter Johnson pitched for Washington yesterday and nosed the White Sox out by a score of 2 to 1, but not without having a horrible experience. In one inning the Sox whaled a home run and a single off his wonderful delivery. In another they got a single
and o base on balls, while in still another one batter got a single. At these trying times Walter's teammates gathered around him, offering words of condolence and encouragement, or the great hurler might never have stood the strain. Several times in other innings batters made fouls off him. Once Jack Fournier almost got a home run. He swung for one, but missed the ball.
