Men made eleven runs, which gave
them lead they maintained until the
game was called in the last half of the
eighth innings. Mr.. John Dat was
chosen umpire, but his calling of balls
and strikes was so careless that at the
end of the second innings Hay Wode-
house took his place and gave satisfac-
ton tothe END Of the game. The game

the bat and got around to third. B.
Baldwin flied out. Thurston was next
to bat, but it got so dark that Chan
Wilder, the catcher for the Married Men,
said it was impossible for him to see the
ball, so Umpire Wodehouse called the
game in favor of the Married Men. The
following is the full score:
