Murphy-Did-Its Win Double Bill Take Two Games From Chi cago Browns at Western League Park. - Before a wildly ecstatic crowd of more tha 3,500 fans the Murphy- Did-Its, crack local semi-pros, yes terday afternoon copped both ends of a double-header from the Chicago Browns at Western league park, 7 to 3 and 5 to 4. The duskv-hued diamond artists started out in the second frame by tapping Madden's . delivery for two singles and a double, which netted them two tallies. ' The Murphys came back strong enough in the fourth to shove .four counters across and from then on were 'never in danger. Madden whiffed seven and passed but one, allowing five hits, while Harper, heaving for the darkies, whiffed seven, allowed eight hits, hit one and walked a brace. The game itself was a thriller, as the Murphys knotted the count in the fifth after the Browns had gar nered a pair, and then went three nicks ahead iohe sixth frame. . The Browns threatened in the seventh, when Shelton's. double and Kelly s safe slam to left, coupled with a pair of Murphy errors, made the count 4 to S. , First game: R H B Murphy-Did-Its .0004011 17 8 8 Chloago Browns .0 2 1 0 0 4 0 0 2 7 2 Batteries Murphys: Madden and Williams; Browns: : Harper and Huff.
