"King"
Kel and
his big band of Braves had all the sport at
Washington yesterday. They rounded the Senators
up in good style, and the "Only" was in the game
from start to finish. After the
Cincinnatis had the game well in hand, Kelly
went to second base while Hurley went behind the
bat to support the speedy Crane. It is to be
hoped that
Kelly;s
men can win the closing game of the series this
afternoon. A victory would give them better
heart to go against Billy
Barnie's
victorious Orioles. |

In a
late edition of the Commercial Gazette yesterday
was published an account of the death of the
father of Willie McGill, the ex-Cincinnati
pitcher. It will be remembered that Mr. McGill
was on his way to Cincinnati when he met with a
railroad accident at Indianapolis. He had
learned of his son's escapade in Louisville and
was on his way here to straighten him out. Mr.
McGill died from the effects of the injuries
received in the accident. |

Dickie
Johnston is beginning to hit the ball. He did
some fine batting in the Boston games, and he is
credited with three hits in the game at
Washington yesterday. |

"King"
Kelly is a terror to the Association pitchers.
When there are runners on the bases the "King"
is never allowed to hit the ball. |

"Kelly's Killer's" like the Athletics, have not
yet struck their
galt.
But they will labor on, and then look out for
the dust. |
