The Deadwood base ball club came
down to Fort Meade Sunday afternoon
and played the soldier boys game Of
ball for fun. The game was spoiled at
the start by the Meades' allowing the
visitors to make seventeen runs in the
first two innings and in return getting
two goose eggs themselves. After the
second inning the game was played clos
or and harder, both sides getting white
washed several times. Fad the Meade
boys begun to play ball one inning soon
or the result might have been different.
The score at tho close of the game
was IS to %. The game was umpired
by Mr.. Connolly, OF the Eighth cavalry,
who proved to be an umpire Of the first
water. He came nearer perfection than
any yet seen by us in the Hills. The
Deadwoods' complimented him highly on
his work.
~
About twenty Deadwoodites came
down to sec their club pick the persim-
mons.
Fred Eccles is by far the finest first
baseman in the entire Black Hills.
But little money changed hands on
the result.
Young Hall, left fielder of the Dead
woods tried to catch fly with his nose
and the result was--irst blood for the
ball.
With the bases full, Allen of the home
team lifted the ball skyward for a four
Dagger, clearing the bases in elegant
style.
Helms and Sco1lard, the battery of the
Sturgis team, played with the Meades.
They were kept in the field however, as
they could do no battery work.
Clay Lambert surprised his friends by
hitting the ball twice.
One or two of the Deadwoods are no
good. just packing you know.
Handen, of the Meades, was knocked
out of the box in the second inning, but
after rest Of two innings came back
and proved quite puzzler for the visit
ors.
Eceles, Apfeld, Corson and Snyder
carried of the honors among the visitors
while Roush, Peck, Lyons and Harnden
did the work for the Meades.
James Corcoran, the crack player OF
Lead, played short for Deadwood.
Charles Snyder, formerly catcher of
the Dubuque, Iowa, club, held down the
middle bag for the Deadwoods. A good
player but very tricky.

The Contributor, p"

This popular monthly magazine is
making big bid for the public support
which it merits, and is offering some
very attractive inducements. Not only
does the magazine speak for itself as the
production of almost wholly local liter
airy talent, but it is being improved with
every year. The coming volume viii

Woodruff, Joseph F. Smith and Moses
Thatcher. Besides this, is included in
the price of the magazine chance in
the great premium steel engraving of
the late President Brigham Young.
Without doubt, this is the finest por-
trait of the great man that has ever been
produced and the sensations and
delight of the artist while on the
work we're such as to make
those to feel, who believe in inspira-
ton, that there was power MOVING
him to make this his greatest work as
the subject was that of the greatest
man whose portrait he had Ceen en-
gagged upon to produce. No wonder the
artist calls 1t his own masterpiece, for
it gives the lie to all the multifarious
infamies that have been spread abroad
concerning this wonderful man. Then
there are other inducements put for
ward which all may acquaint them
selves with by communicating with the
Office of the Contributor. There can be
no two opinions as to the worth and
excellence of the magt zine. 1t is now
starting on its tenth volume.
