until she passed away. She was
conscious until a short time before
her death and talked freely about
the tragedy and stated she was sor

told her brother that she wanted 10 ]
get well and requested him to go
for a physician, whloh he did and
the doctor did all In his power to
save the woman's life, but to no ef- ,

Eugrn? Hooker.
Six chances without an error
and three hits out of Are times
at bat are among the reasons
for Btieklng Hooker's name In
to this Pot of Publicity today.
In addition to that. Hooker,
also started tho rally which re
sulted Id Aurora's wlanlng out
In the last toning of yesterday's
game.
The Goddess of Loek deserted
Washington la the tenth ianlng of,
yesterday's game. "With the score
l-X,. the Old Lady went off to other
parts and he* place wu taken by
Old Man Jliu? who perched himself
on a ball that was thrown by Ful-J
-ord to first base and earrled the'
T?IU over Moore's head, allowing two
runs to score. The final score re-j
mained at 3-1. I
Errors were responsible for all of
i ho tallies made In yesterday's gam"
'n the fourth inning, with E. Hook
?r on base, Darden Muffed R. S
Thompson's fly and Hooker scored.
In their half of the same Inning,
?rlth Moore cm bfufc, Washington
'Pcured their flrst run when Floyd
lirew the ball Into centerfleld In an
:ffort to catch Fred stealing. The
atter scored before the ball could
'.e relayed to the plate.
Browa and Pm? pUched good ball
md both of them palled themselves
out of bad holes a number of times,
in the seventh inning, with Moore
)u third base and one. down. Hack
ney, who was coaching, gave the
signal for the squeeze play. Fulfofd
was at bat. Moore started for hom<
but Reg., was unable to touch the
^all and Floyd put Fred out easily.
The next minute. Fulford cracked
out a beautiful single. The play
was the proper one at the time, al
*hough not very good judgment wai
'elected In the batter, for Reg. nev
r ha* bunted successfully.
Several pretty fielding stunts
vere seen. Fulford made a one
ended stab of Floyd's line d^lve In
tho fourth Inning that couldn't bel
teat. Powell also made a pretty
ltnnlng catch of J. Hooker's long
1 y In the ninth inning.
There were two men out In tho
*nth Inning when Aurora broke up J
he game. !Bonnfer flew out to I
? 'helps and Rives grounded out to
Moore. E. Hooker singled. Pace
?figled and then R. 8. Thompson
knocked the grounder to Fulford.
which endod the game far a*
Washington was concerned. Reg.
made a pretty stop of the ball, but
heaved wild to flrst.
