"Smoke" McBride Pitched the Greatest Game of his Career and won his own Game With two Homersâ€"Crackers | Fought all the way and Never Gave up Hopeâ€"$20 Colâ€" § lected for Machine Gun Fund. TAGKEATERS AND CRAGKERJAGKS PUT UP A WONDERFUL GAME FOR SEVEN INNINGS Aye, Mon, but she was a gran‘ game. For seven long innings did the Tackeaters and the Crackerjacks battle it out on the ball field on Thursday night last, with everybody on their toes, and the large crowd of spectators on needles and pins all the time, to see just which team was going to start a batting rally and rollâ€"upâ€"a score. . : _ _For seven long innings of fast gingery ball did those two teams play with no team in the lead by a big margin at any time and either one of them liable to start a rally that meant victory. # _ _The Tackeaters went on the field favorites at 7 to 5 and 10 to 7, with very little Crackerjack money in sight. The. Tackers, by their wonderful race through the league were held in high esteem by the fans and fannettes, but they were all just a little bit scared of the Crackers on account of their wonâ€" derful showing a week before. L ‘"Gmoke" McBride, C.O.D., was in the box for the Tackeaters and right there is where the game was WoOn. "Smoke‘" pitched the best game of ‘his long and varied career, and despite the talk of the press and public the old man did not look as though. he was going back, but proved that he had more speed and steam than ever. Schwab caught a sterling game, but at times had difficulty in hanging onto some of "Smoke‘s" balls, they came in so fast. "Smoke" really won his own as his two homers account for four runs. Gowland and Ryder were in the points for the Crackers and put up a great game of ball for seven innings. At the end of the seventh the Tackers had only gathered nine runs off "Mike" but in the cighth in the dark they got to him for 7 which made the score 16 â€"6 in favor of the hammer pounders. The game stood 9â€"6 at the end of the Crackers half of the eighth. ‘~Ast _Inningsâ€"McNinch struck . out, Konkle struck out, Gowland sent up a pop fily which Fisher gathered inâ€"no hits, no runs. 7 W.

Hamilton Cricket grounds by 60 runs to 27, owing mainly to the. great bOowling of Whitlaw and" Stewart, the work of the former being especially brilliant, he taking no less than 7 wickets for onlyâ€"$ runs, all but one being clean Lowled. The visitors ibatted first, but were unable to hit the local bowlers, and were all retired for the small score of 27. The Saints lost their first five wickets for 4 runs and it looked as if the visitors would win out, but Davis and Smith got together, both playing fine cricket, the former hitting up a splendid 22 before being cleverly stumped. by Dalton. Howcroft and Stone followed up the good work, the former getting 8 and the latter 12 by good playing, and the inning did not close until 60 had been put on the score. As stated, the bhowling of Whitlaw was â€" the feature of a wellâ€"fought game, though Gowland looked like making aâ€"record for himself when he had 5 wickets for 2 runs, but he lost his stride, and was being hit rather freely when relieved by VanDyke. . ~Grimsby ; Victoria A.

NELSON, the Stoney Creek umpire, is by far the best man who has hanâ€" dled the indicator in GRIMSBY this season. He told the boys before the gamée started that he wouldn‘t stand for any monkey work. ~THAT CRICKET GAME in Hamilâ€" ton on Saturday was somewhat of â€"a freak game. The score was a small one, being 60 to 27 in favor of Hamilâ€" ton. Gowland had five wickets down for two runs, when he lost his hold and finished up with â€" twentyâ€"two against him. FAST FOOTBALL was the order of the day between the GRIMSBY and Smithville soccer teamsâ€" on Friday night last. GRIMSBY kind of got Smithville‘s goat in the start off by scoring in the first minute‘s play. SMITHVILLE has a centre forward that is a star.. He is by far the best man on the southern line. VÂ¥ANCE OF SMITHYILLE made the prettiest play of the night when he went the full length of the field alone; passed all opposition and centred the ball which meant Smithville‘s only goal.

G. Farrell, the Naps were forced to depend on their second string pitcher, Mr. Wm. Over Gowland, the noted cricket bowler. Willie was alright in spots, but the spots were widely seâ€" parated. After being pounded hard for three innings he was derricked and Mr. Whaley Fisher, a noted ‘ball player in different sections of â€" the country, sent to the box. Whaley had high balls, low balls, wide balls and all kinds of balls but few strikes. Mr. Eddie St. John, the Giants‘ catcher, was .indisposed "and Samuel Bonham was on the receiving end of the battery. _ § f Sare the Chicks By ~tacking a strip of. oneâ€"inch mesh wire two feet square in the corners of the breeding coops giving a roundâ€"corner effect, â€" it will save the lives of hundreds of chicks Even when the little fellows crowd against the corners there is breathâ€" ing space, and theirâ€"lives are saved Be sure that the ends of all wires that have ‘been cut off are bent back so that they will not prick the eyes of the chicks.
