The game between the GARDENERS and Bos-
ton Blues, yesterday, seemed to be one
sided game, and loosely played. A. X. Ham
mond scored for the Blues, and John c.
Moore for the home team. Arthur ID. Yer
rill acted as umpire, and his conduct was fair
and met the approval of everybody. The
game was won by the GARDENERS in nine in
nings, 26 to I. The Blues have been on the
road and playing constantly for ten days, and
are really in poor condition to play. They
are good players when they are fresh and
have fair chance Yesterday forenoon
they played at Togus, and this afternoon will
play the Augustus. The splendid batting of
the GARDENERS in the game, yesterday, was
met with repeated cheers from the crowd,
and really won them the game. The attend
ance was fair, and there was no kicking"
