The Crescent Base Ball Club of Des
Moines was defeated at Grinnell. by the
80. Ks, an inferior club of that town, by
score OF 10 to 36 in six innings, at which
time the Crescents jumped the game. The
cause of the Crescents defeat was-they
didn't play good enough and hadn't their
own umpire, which with them makes all
the difference in the world.

and wrapping round it had brought them
to stop. No damage.
