An Instructive Address.

Hon. j. G. Baird addressed the Ban
dana club last evening on a few phases of
the tariff question. He demonstrated
from his own personal experience that
high tariff doesn't make high wages and
favored such a regulation that the manu-
f~acturer would not be the sole beneficiary
To each producer there were four con-
sumers. Legislation hitherto has boon
solely in the direction of protecting the
former. In an equitable readjustment
the latter should come in for equal con-
sideration. The address was listened to
with much pleasure and profit. AT its
conclusion the club extended Mr.. Baird a
vote of thanks.

THE BALL GAME.
1t Was a Royal Treat to a Small
Crowd.
The Score Shows that Figures May
Be Misleading.
Prospects for a Splendid Game This
Afternoon.

The people who are continually harp
ing on the iniquities of Sunday ball
playing and who follow a wall on the
wickedness of the Sabbath dissertation,
with the assertion that they would patron
ize the sport il the contests occurred on
week days, were conspicuous by their alb
sence from the fair grounds yesterday.
The workingmen, who cannot leave their
places during the week were, of course,
not in attendance. In consequence, the
audience was a small one, and Yesterdays
gate receipts will not go far toward de-
traying the expenses incurred by the
home team in affording the citizens an
opportunity to witness a good ball game.
When the crowd left the fair grounds
yesterday it was. under the impression
that the visitors had been victorious by a
score of Is to IA, as announced by the
official scorer. Such was not the case,
however. The game was a tie-14 to IA
in eight and one-half innings. This dis
covery was not made until the players
and spectators bad reached the city, when
some of the former accidentally noticed
the error in the score. One of the Dem
veI players who should have been re-
corded as left on third" was credited
with a run. By mutual agreement, the
club capturing to-day's game will be de-
clared the winner of both contests.
In Justice to the visitors let it be under
stood that according to rules they won the
game. OF course there is a possibility that
they might have been shut out in their
half of the ninth and beaten in the tenth,
but under existing circumstances the gam
must be officially recorded as one of eight
innings and IA to Is in favor of the
Points. The visitors are Jolly good fel-
lows, however, and agreed to call the game
a tie.
Yesterdays game was interesting and
closely contested throughout, at times it
was very exciting and several brilliant
plays were made. Nearly every Cheyenne
lad distinguished himself at some stage in
the game and Denver S famous club played
like veterans. 1t is nip and tuck as to
who are the best base runners and batters.
Of course the visitors we're in better form.
as they have more practice and know just
how to play at critical periods. Darrah
was in the box for the Five Points, and
had a splendid back stop in J. McLaugh-
lin. Rapp pitched for the Reds, and was
caught by johnson and Cannon. He held
the sluggers down in pretty good shape.
