The Woodstock Shamrocks, by leav­ ing the field of battle in the eleventh inning of last Sunday's contest, forfeited the game to McHenry by the customary score of 9 to 0, altho the ttctaal figures stood eleven all. The team left the field after a heated argument over a decieicfh at the home plate. The argument arose when Mann at­ tempted to score frum third on Engeln's infield hit. Engeln hit a hot one down to Comisfcey, who returned the ball to McGee. The ump declared the rnnner safe and no sooner had he done so than the entire Woodstock combination was up with a protest. The ump could not be induced to change his decision and the team left the field. We will not express our opinion on the decision, but will leave it for the fans who were in attendance to decide. The game thruont was a fairly well played one. altho both sides threw away several chances to put away the game on ice. Jack Easton, at one time one of the pitching stare on the old Woodstock Oliver team, was in the bos for the locals and would have won his game handily had it not beou for the poor support given him in the fourth round, when the visitors hung np four tallira on two bad errors, a base on balls ana a three base hit. Joorfetz, who has always had the Indian sign on the locals, was again on the mound for the connty seat, but on this occasion was kept in hot water daring the entire contest. Thirteen nafe swats were secured from bis deliv­ eries. The locals kept the opposing in­ field on their toes at times, Bartelt, at short, being given thirteen chances. He accepted seven and lost six. The one big feature of the game was H. Ward's work around the second pil­ low and his batting. In the field he accepted nine chances without the least sign of an error and at bat he secured a triple, double and two singles out of six times up. The feat, we feel safe in say­ ing, has never before been accomplished on a McHenry diamond. Ward has the making of an excellent ball player and if be keeps up this stride it won't be long before some of the big fellows will be looking him over. Adkins, who covered second for Mc­ Henry, also eomes in for more than a little of the afternoon's honors. Ho also accepted nine chances at the center pillow without a flaw and lammed out a double and two singles out of five times up. The tabulated score follows: SHAMROCKS R. H. P.O. A.

Monday's game, from the visitor's point of view, was an interesting one to watch, but for McHenry fans was a sad disappointment. The visitors took the field in the first inning with a feel­ ing of perfect confidence that the after­ noon's laurels would go to them. So far did the visitors outclass the home team at every stage of the game that one could hardly begin to compare the two teams. McHenry fought like fiends to keep the score as low ks they did, and only in one inning, the ^ighth, did they have a chance to score, a lightning double on the part of the visitors spoiling our chances in this stanza. Miller, for McHenry, pitched a very creditable game, and with perfect sup- portopould have given the Chicagoans lirhfrt run for the money. While it is true the visitors secured twelve hits off his delivery, these swats would have netted the opponents but three runs had it not been for the errors behind the hnsky athlete from Johnsburgh. To dope it out correctly, the score should have been 8 to 0 instead of 10 to 0. However, we must give the Chicago lads the credit that is due them. They played an exceptionally fast fielding game while they hit the horsehide with vengeance that would do credit to Uncle Sam's artillery. Their first two runs came in the first inning. Gallagher was safe at first on Engeln's error and came home when Keil lost the ball in the tall and uncut, the batter also scoring on the hit. Four runs were procured in the third on two singles, a sacrifice, two errors aqd a double. In the seventh another runner crossed the pan as the result of a double and error. The eighth run was regis­ tered in the eighth round on an error and hit. The laBt two runs came in the ninth on three doubles and a sacrifice fly into deep center. Only thirty-four men faced the visitors' pitcher during the performance. The score: Chicago Edelweiss R. H. P.O. A. E Gallagher. If 2 2 0 0 0 Butts. 2nd b j VISITORS OF A WEEK. Petesch's for drugs.
