TEAL HOME WINS FOR WICHITA
Pettlgrew Tarns the Trick In the
Foirtetnlk,
WICHITA, Aug. 29. Pettlgrew's steal of
home with the score a tie end two down in
the fourteenth inning broke up a three
hours' pitchers' battle between young Hass
ler, late of the Kansas State league, and
Frank Miller, the Chicago White Sox re
cruit, today, giving Wichita a well earned
victory over Dea Molnea by the score of
3 to 2.
It was by far the best game seen here
since Wichita became a member of the
Western league. Both pitchers were work
ing grandly and received excellent support.
Two of the three errors, one on each side,
were eostly.
Des Moines scored in the first inning on
Hughes' error, a bunt beaten out and
Dwyer's hit. For six innings thereafter
not a visitor reached first, and for nine
innings not one got to second. In the
fourteenth Dalton hit for two bases, was
sacrificed to third and scored on Mattlck's
two-sacker.
Wichita tied the score In the ninth when
Mlddleton hit for two sacks, was sacrificed
to third and scored on Westersll's long fly.
In Wichita's half of the fourteenth Hughes
led off with a lit. Mtrfrileton bunted past
the pitcher and both men were safe. Petti
grew also beat out a bunt. . With the bases
full Westerxil drove a long fly to center,
which Mattlck dropped, and Hughes scored,
as he probably would have done, even on
Mattlck, had the ball been caught. Pennell
fanned and White forced Mlddleton at the
plate on a questionable decision. With
Weaver up. Holland stnt Petttgrew in and
he slid home safely. Score:
WICHITA.

DENVER 8TILL ON TOBOGGAN
Stonx Bat Oat a Victory la Closing!
Innings.
DENVER, Aug. 29. Sioux City won a
batting game from Denver today by hilling
at the right time and taking advantage vi
the dopey play of tno locals. Berger WaJ
driven from tue box In the elghtn inning,
but his removal was after the damage had
been dote. Sioux City used three pitchers,
sanding one to the bench whenever Denver
took a notion to hit. It ,1s Just a week
since oenver won a game.
Denver fana were given the first chance
of aeven days to root in the fifth inning,
when Haley led off in a batting rally, and
four runa were driven in. But poor battery
work in the seventh gave Siuux City the
chance to get a lead, which was Increased
in tne elghtn by poor work of the pitcher,
errors by the locals and two sacrlnces.
Vowne's hitting was the feature, he driv
ing in four runs. Sioux Clly stole .bases
on Haley with Impunity, just aa Lincoln
did. Score:
DENVER.

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. 2. "Sermons In
Stones and Good In Everything," is a text
applicable to a sermon delivered by Rev.
G. U Morrill to the fana at the ball park
before the game here today. It was the
first time m professional base ball history
that religious services had been conducted
In connection wltth a game.
The holiday crowd listened attentively
to the practical religious discourse of the
minister before the umpire called "play
ball."
Then the game proceeded and the Min
neapolis team, first to introduce religious
services aa a prelude to Sunday ball, won
from Kansas City, by a score of 8 to 0.
Hughes was very effective, while Carter
was pounded hard in the fourth Inning,

runa Kanaaa City's one ohance to score
was spoiled by a wonderful throw to the
plate from right .field by Altrock In the

HARDWARE MEN TRIM MIDWAYS
Game Starts Aaaplclonaly (or Colored
Men, bat They Fall Down.
The Lee-Olass-Andreesens took Manager
Ford's all-star colored aggregation, the
Midways, down the line yesterday after
noon at Vinton Street park. The Midways
started out to do things to the hardware
men's slab artist, Bunnell, and crossed
the home platter with three of their five
runs before their white opponents realized
the game had started. A fast double play
from Graham to Iawler to Farley and a
strikeout retired the side without further
damage. Their final runs were made in
the fifth on a base on balls, a hit and
two fielder's choices. Brodbeck was brought
out to do the twirling In the sixth and
put the Twelfth street wonders away as
fast as they came up.
The Lee-Qlaas-Andreesens scored one In
the second on Rose's error of Minlkus'
grounder, a stolen base and a passed ball.
Again In the third, after Bunnell had been
retired from George Washington to Abra
ham Lincoln Lewis, the Lee-Glass-Andree-sens
scored on "Mickey" Casey's three
base hit and Lawler's single.
"Mistah" Lee, who had been doing nicely
up to the fourth, began to slip and the
fifth inning netted the white players three
of the coveted chalk marks. The sixth
saw the finish of the aforesaid "Mistah"
Lee. Brodbeck, who had relieved Bunnell,
started the round by striking out. Casey,
however, poked out a two-sacker, going
to third on a passed ball and scoring on
Lawler's sacrifice. George Graham singled
past first, which seemed to nettle "Mis
tah" Lee. who Immediately became gen
erous and presented Farley and Gibson
with free transportation. At this critical
period the colored boys seemed to have
a longing to engage In a long distance
throwing contest, that ended when they
couldn't find any base runners to throw
at. The Hon. George Washington ended
the slaughter by pulling off the fielding
stunt of the day. going back of second
base and pulling down an apparently safe
hit that J. Minlkus had started In the
direction of the center field fence. "Dandy"
Rose essayed to stop the slaughter and
had a fairly good start, striking out two
In the seventh, with no runs. The eighth,
however, addwd two more runs, but that
wasn't "Dandy's" fault, for he had some
thing startling guess It must have been
his broad grin and watermelon vine
wlndup.
Altogether, the exhibition was entirely
satisfactory from a spectator's point of
view. The score:
