ALL-NATIONS EVEN UP SERIES.
Win Doubleheader From A. B. C.'s,
Play Off Tie Today.

    The All Nations evened up the series with the A. B. C.'s of Indianapolis yesterday afternoon at Association park by winning a double header 8 to 3 and 3 to 2. The teams will play off the tie this afternoon at 3 o'clock.
    Mike Flanagan's pitching was the main factor in the All Nations copping the double bill. He had his opponents on his staff in both contests and not until the last inning of the second game was he in danger. A double by Blukoi won the after piece for the All Nations, when he doubled with two team mates on bases. John Donaldson will pitch for the All Nations this afternoon in the final game of the series. He will be opposed by Jeffries, who held the All Nations to a 12-inning draw Saturday. Today will be ladies' day. Scores:
