The game of base ball between the Key
stones, OF Manfeim, and the Columbia club
attracted a large crowd to the grounds to see
the third and decisive game between those
two clubs The game was expected to be a
close one, and so proved to be. The Column
bians had the game well in hand during the
first few innings, but by few miserable
errors, aided by some batting at timely
points by the visitors, lost the game. The
game was battle of the pitchers in which
King, of the home nine, came ahead. When
ninth inning the crowd was turned I'm a mob
and the yelling could be heard for squares
away. The following shows the result of the
game:
