Text	[from Joe Pritchard's column] In last Sunday's game with the Colonels three of the Browns were on the bases when “Count” Campau stepped to the plate with a dirty, weather-beaten piece of wagon tongue in his hands. Some one called out for a home run and the “Count” smiled. “One strike,” sang Umpire Doescher, and the ball was returned to the pitcher. Ehret was signed by his catcher, but he shook his head and a moment later the ball was on its way to the catcher, but it never reached the place where the “wood-pecker” twirler desired it should, as the “Count” swung the weather-beaten bat around quickly and hit the ball fairly on the front tooth.
