ance, and was given a regular ovation when he hit the second ball pitched to right field for a pretty single, bringing in Chamberlain. Agnew went out to third.
Darby went in the box for the Blues in the eighth innsg Williamson evidently appreciated the change. He sent a hot ground ball toward short which went right through Connaughton, and before it could be returned Williamson had crossed the plate, and again the spectators yelled for fully a minute. Todd got a nice one to center and was doubled on Kelsey's hit to third, which was cleverly handled by little Nattress. Gear hit a hard one to center but without effect.
The ninth and last inning was an exciting one. Alden led out with a two bagger, a nice hit. Mitchell aimed at Nattress, who fumbled; a passed ball advanced each a base; Chamberlain sent a line ball to Connaughton, who made a splendid jump catch. Wagner went out to Manning: a passed ball let Alden in. Agnew beat out an easy one to short, and Mitchell scored Williamson returned a pitched ball to Darby. and the day was done.
For the Blues the making of scores begun in the first inning, and continued without interruption until the seventh, when they were retired with a goose egg. Rupert hit to Mitchell. Gear pitched Nattres an easy one; the little third base man made a clean hit, but was thrown out a moment later by Kelsey on an attempt to reach second. Bergen struck out.
They played the game in earnest, and played to shut out the K. U. boys. The fielding was brilliant all the time, and the coaching of the real ball players amused the spectators
Prof. Cowan held the unenviable position of umpire and was kind to his own team in case of doubt.
The following is the score:
