WERE DEFEATED BUT NOT VANQUISHED
Defeated but not vanquished. That
was the state of the lojal Elks when
the Weeping Water aggregation got
through with them yesterday 5 to 4
that was the score. So near and yet
so far. The second game dropped by
the Elks this season and that by so
clcse a s-core.
It may have teen due to the grounds.
The men of Weeping Water are good
jumpers and a couple of ravines run
ning asiOis the diamond did not inter
fere with them at all. Rut, of course,
the Elks were not used t j that kind
of grounds. Some claim that Schneider
was corrupted by the political meet
ing just before the f;ame, but to say
so is not kind, inasmuch as he made
one of the runs.
Mauzy had evidently formed a trust
on runs. He made the first three of
the Elks' four runs but took Schneider
in as a partner allowing him to make
the linal score.
The game was opened by the Elks.
In the first Mauzy knocked the leather
to short stop and beat it to first. He
stole second and third and reached
home on the catcher's fumble. Weep
ing Water followed suit with one run
in the first.
In the second neither side completed
the circuit. In the third Mauzy
made another score and then the men
of Weeping Water covered that one
score and went the Elks one better.
An unfortunate accident occurred
in this inning. Ed Kennedy, a Weep
ing Water man, fell near second base
and broke his knee cap. The fracture
was extremely painful but Kennedy
jumped up and hobbled on to third
where he fell exhausted. A physician
was hastily summoned and the injured
man was removed and cared for. In
this inning F. R. Rallance, who had
been umpiring, threw up his job, be-'
ing tired of the jeers and jibes of the j
spectators, and John Donelan, the
banker, took his place.
The Weeping Water men made two
more scores in the sixth and the Elks
followed with a like number in the
seventh, but they couldn't get up
steam enough to make another run
and the game closed in favor of Weep
ing Water.
A good double play was made in the
sixth inning when Weeping Water
had three men on bases. Prisbrey
stopped a rly, threw it to Kosek and
Kosek to White on third, putting out
two men.
Joe Fitzgerald, who accompanied
the team, lost his hat which was lying
in the bottom of the carriage, on the
way down, but one of the carriages
following picked up the chapeau and
restored it to the chief in Weeping
Water. Worse luck happened to Judge
Eilly Weber for he lost his coat on the
way home and thus far no one has re
stored it to him.
The score by innings was as follows:
Elks 10100020 0-4
