Bell, Denver's catcher, should get his thick tUmmd- hh getting pretty Lucas is covering first base in great shape, and is developing into a sure and hard batter. Xiebaur is inclined to favor the home team. An unpardonable error-in an exhibition game. A few years will place Barker in the rank of professional. His delivery is line. His head work, however, needs cultivation. Griffiths is becoming a slugger of high order and the crowd thinks it has not received its money's worth unless Griffiths makes a home run. Golding is not the slowest runner on earth. One would think so to see him movo betwecu bases, but he isn't. There are numerous one legged men slower than Golding. A cheap John merchant would have done a thriving business after the game selling suspenders. Never before did Colorado people wear such long, forlorn for-lorn an d forsaken faces. Everett, the ex-pugilist who holds down third for Denver, has evidently been training his voice in a Piute choir or a Chinese chorus. When ho coaches there is no use for conversation in the grand stand. The official scorer is not "up" at all. Griffiths is the only National credited with un error, wfiilo Lloyd had two passed balls, Barker pitched wild sov-eral sov-eral times, and other errors were made which do not appear on the oilieial score. 3.(1 I a Ijjg wbo went to the park yester- Ivtosee s fine exhibition of skill on :! diamond were disappointed. Tlio 'txa team, which came with 1 le reputation of being a crack or-J or-J luiMtiou, failed to show any of its Hjto that title, except In the' field, U it i exceptionally strong. At 1 Kbsl Denver is very weak, and ou jjcs tlioy m e as wooden men. Salt Lake's Nationals had their bat-c bat-c tickling, and base running clothes , yesterday, and the , way . they .glided Boron was pitiful. Griffiths actcked tho leather over the fence I ; ijiiist time he came to bat, Lloyd hit (two bags and Lucas knocked the p & into right garden for three. H in ibe seventh inning Denver put in ersubstitute pitcher. It followed the me of C'apliugcr and had a twist of r and reach of arm that was immense. fcaMi'-Caplinger was in motion he (soniblcd tho aurora borealias .Mi jag on. He would poise him-,;f him-,;f gracefully ou his . left leg jo his right made a " ixiiitof the diamond, his arms straight-,ti straight-,ti out toward home plate and second jseaud then he would begin a revolu-tnary revolu-tnary movement which had a ten-toey'to ten-toey'to . give the "batter the jim-jams. ! ihiB Mr1. Caplinger finally decided to diver, his body would do credit to Mirpatigh's contortionist, and the ball wild come from some where in the ,i of humanity which occupied it pitcher's box twisting and Tithing toward the batter. But fter Barker had fanned the breeze He rest of the Nationals nt onto Mr. Caplinger's twists and winded him for four runs in the sev-mh sev-mh inning. The features of the game was Grif-iihV Grif-iihV batting, Piatt's base running and JiMahou's work at second. Siebaiir was away off again as urn-are. urn-are. He lacks firmness and stability i his positiou. He talks to the players as liough he were endeavoring to pacify -ih sides after making a decision, lieliaur evidently desires to do right, nit his decisions are often too glaring ii permit the thought that ho doesn't now better.
