NtntU Inning Rolled Itounu, the Hornet Sim -i in lAndinr on S1ml(k hr Four Straight Hits. But Tbeo Brouirht rrtl Only Two Kuna iuhI AnotK?r tiame Wont Wrong. For the character of the upport given by the grandstand and in the face of some of the worst criticism which has ever been hurled at player ho wore a Charlotte uniform, the Hornets displayed better pluck and n,.rr than f-oiild have been expect- d in the last of the series with An- j other .....I the latter had the beat of . nhe arg-ument from he beKlnnlnf? to derson. the tinal score of which eJ)d Jc otit because his team t to 4. jdid not support him us McFarlln's The locals played no ball and no- mates" supported him. Mt'Kevitt and laody could reasonably elpect them to Hentley hit ror two-bagKers In the how any form when an enraged pa- hr.-t and two runs were scored that tronage was continuously ridiculing were a iufflci-n,-y until the fifth when them and showering upon them all Stourh and his ornwd chalked up one sort of criticism when an error was on an error. The Banie was tied until made or a man would fail to Bet a i the tenth when with two out, Belcher hit. Anderson scored two times In the first inning after two were out and after the third man should have been disposed of. Weherell ran out to rirsi and Schmick fanned. Meyers th.-n hit easily to l.inneborn who threw a little late to first in tho Judgment of the umpire, although It was about an even draw. Meyers then stole aecond and went to third on the bad throw of Wahl to catch him at the econd station. Dobard errored Mill er's grounder and Meyers scored. Ochs proceeded to stir up the nest by driv ing to right field for two sacks, scor ing Miller. Kelly fanned and ended the fateful frame. The visitors passed over the sec ond and third Innings, but registered another run In the fifth when Ochs singled and went to second on being hit by a thrown ball at first. Kelly sacrificed him to third and Klock sac rificed him home with a My. In the next Innlnis another run was made on McCarthy's double which was a result o mkinrfrmrnt bv Cosmo In left field. He scored on Brazelle's throw i-i ., u...,inrt Iiohnrrt not to caicn Mini i ------- ,, covering the bag a ind the Dan roiling Meyers made the other run in the eltthth on a homer to the left field m ,- ...i. failing to cornel .u.DVASrVirrmKS T II A I V J A u i ' J . Charlotte scored a single t me in the i second Inning on a base on balls to Shumaker, a sacrifice by McLaughlin and a safe drive for Humphrey. The third, fourth and fifth Innings fcrouaht forth no fruit, but in tne sev- w Annthr run wa made on hits by Dobard and Uinneborn and sacrl- I fices by Brennen ana Mnumaaer. The other two sprang from one of the most notable butflng rallies thn locals have yet Indulged and Jt came in the l.iHt frame when two men were out. After MrUuighlln flew out to left on a good running catch and Humphrey had tipped up to Miller. Cosmo started the proceedings with a single through short. Wahl followed with another in the same spot. Haz elton was sent in to bat for Braielle and singled through short, scoring Cosmo. Dobard drove safe to left field with such vengeance that the ball would have gone to the fence had it been diverted a few feet from the stalwart frame of one Ochs who grazes out In the left territory. Wahl scored on the lick and Charlotte lack ed but one run of tying up the affair. The grandstand which had grown irate and very ugly during the game actually changed Its aspect and be came somewhat enthusiastic, but I,ln neborn. the next man up. and last, for that matter, grounded to short. BRAZF.LLK PITCH ED WELL Brazelle was in the box for the lo cals and displayed better form than he has shown in several days. The home run and one of the doubles hc rured oft him should have been hand led and wtth better support In the field elsewhere he would have had no trouble at all In walking off with the victory. Opposed to him was Dr. Schmick. who generally attends to the patients who apply .to him at the first sack He pitched an exceedingly creditable game, keeping the hits made by the Hornets very well apart until the ninth Inning, when the four successive singles came near proving his undo ing. Mfller's work on second was one of a mighty few bright spots in the whole game, while the hitting of Ochs and McCarthy were of an un usual order. There were no constellations on the local line-up. The Infield was work ing rather poorly, although Linneborn waa shifted back to his old position at third and Brennen got his dear old aecond base back to his bosom. Unne horn played consistently at third. Do hard was off color to some extent, but almost anything; was pardonable In the face of such a rapid-fire of caustic criticisms which constantly Is sued from the grandstand and bleach ers. ANDERSON.

Battling Nelson, of Illinois, knocked out Dick Hyland, of Cali fornia, this afternobn In the 23d round of a scheduled 45-round bout The contest was one of the most vicious ever seen in a local ring. The fight was fairly even up to the IStu round, after which Nelson took the lead. Hyland was knocked out by a left hook to the stomach, after he had been floored several times in the two preceding rounds. Betting was 10 to 4 on Nelson to win and even that Hyland wouldn't stay 25 rounds. The men weighed 133 pounds. Throughout a dozen rounds, Hy land and the champion hammered each other with vicious swings and uppercuts that cut short all promise of a 4 5-rourtd contest. In the early stages Hyland was the master, al though it could not be said whether Nelson was extending himself. Dur ing the last three rounds, however, the Dane went after his opponent without an Instant's rest, knocking him down time after time and stag gering the game Californlan with blinding volleys of rights and left swings to the head, varied by an oc caalonal crushing straight left to the stomach.
