He is very active, let's nothing pass and
bats freely. He made the most brilliant
play OF the game when holding down third
after one of the numerous changes. A
hot liner came bounding toward the short
stop. Williams ran directly in front OF
that player, captured the sphere and
caught the runner at first.
The Laramie ielders captured some
flies sent to their respective gardens with
great ease.
Wells, the giant pitcher Of the lara
niles, had quite an adventure at first on
ons of his trips. He and little Erswell
began scuffling. The visitor challenged
the home man to wrestle. The banter
was accepted promptly and Wells was
quickly and firmly laid on his back. Wells
weighs about $50 pounds, and Erswell
about fifty pounds less. To say that he
was surprised is putting it mildly. Frs
well was loudly cheered.
Laramie earned but one run, Cheyenne
nine. Loose fielding caused it.
Nearly all of the visitors, aud they
numbered over 200, returned home Sun
day evening. They were escorted to the
train by the Red Stockings and many
citizens. When the train was moving
out three times three cheers were given
for Laramie. Before the train lett res
i1ents of the two towns stood about the
depot and snapped lies for half an
hour. The best Of, feeling prevailed. The
visitors promised to come again and the
local team threatened to invade Laramie
once more in the near future.

The entertainment given by the Rentz-
Santley burlesque and specially company
at the opera house last evening was not
80 internally wicked after all. OF course
the display of the female form divine was
quite liberal, but as old Jim McDaniels
used to say there was nothing said or done
which would offend a lady in the last
stages of consumption.
The costumes in the satire on toboggan-

ordinary vaudeville organization. The

the masculine gender.

Laramie.

The game was played in two hours and
thirty-seven minutes. Mcknight, a
member of the Laramie club. oficiated as
umpire. He stood between the catcher
and batter, and played a good game for
his own team.
Laramie changed batteries three times,
and at times went to pieces entirely.
Rapp and Cannon remained at the points
the nine innings for the home club and
did first class work, although the pitcher
was somewhat cratic at times. Rapp's
curves. when he once had the ball under
control were very puzzling and many of
the visitors famed the air as the shoots
went over the plate. Erswell was at
home on first and should be kept there.
Stow played his regular game at second,
while Murray at short and Leighton at
third greatly strengthened the nine. The
outfield, Lumley, Williams and Marshall,
did well, the two former gaining no
marks in the error column.
Williams, the colored boy who covered
short field and third for the visitors, has
improved wonderfully since last season.

The Nomination Locally.

The nomination of Harrison was not
received with any great degree of enthu-
siasm in this city. A prominent member
of the party proposed three cheers on
receipt of the news, and two boys who
naturally felt like yelling responded.
Who the h-ll is Harrison2" was heard
several times, and if there were half a
dozen honestly jubilant Republicans in
town they were very quiet.

Veying the intelligence found the city and

THE BALL GAME.
The Laramie Aggregation Is Easily
Beaten.
They Play Desperately but are Out,
CIassed.
Home Club 0utpIays the Visitors at
All Points.
A Large Attendance and Great
Enthusiasm.

The Laramie ball game at
the fair grounds Sunday afternoon was a
fine exhibition of the national pastime.
The attendance was fully 1000. with a
fair sprinkling of ladies. The audience
was enthusiastic and good natured. Good
plays were applauded to the echo and the
grand stand players were the happiest
men in the territory.
There never was so much betting on
any game played in the territory as the
one of last Sunday. Before the struggle
commenced and the home club got down to
business in the fourth inning the Laramie
sports bet the CHEYENNE boys to a stand
still and then bluffed them out of sight.
After the Waterloo the Gem City crowd
retired to a secluded nook oyer in the
northeastern corner of the fair ground
and kicked each other. This did not stop
the gambling however. Wagers were laid
that batters would not make a hit, that
runners would not make a base, that the
side would be go~ose-egged and that a
fielder would muf the sphere. Money
changed hands rapidly and in respectable
sums. The bets aggregated fully 81, 1000.
OF the game it may truthfully be said
in the cultured language of the down-east
sporting editor hat the home team wal
Hoped the visitors numerically. The
Laramie boys understand the rudiments
of the national game, but are wholly I'm
fit to be pitted against a ball playing
nine. In the team from over the hill are
severalfrst rate players, notably, Williams,
the colored athlete, Wells, the extended
gothic pitcher. Frazier, Connors and
King. The latter played an errorless
game at bag No. l.
Laramie was first to bat, and made four
runs on rank errors. This sent Cheyenne
stock way below zero, and it was at this
iuncture that Gem money could find no
takers. The Red Stockings made three
runs in the third and tied and passed
Laramie amidst great cheering in the
fourth inning. The Laramie men who
had previously been yelling like Comman-
cuco, uOW buuuchif pCOamC hOaioo anu
wandered about the grounds like hackers
OF a short horse at a race. The visitors
played desperately, but could not over
take their conquerors. They made a squirt
in the eighth inning and succeeded in
getting three men over the plate, but the
Reds went them two better in their half
of the same inning and we're patted on
the back by town people and outside ad-
mirers.
Some OF the Cheyenne boys made
pretty serious errors at critical periods,
but on the whole played a splendid game.
They need more practice. The nine
which faced the visitors yesterday never
played together before, and several of the
men occupied new positions. The batting
order and positions of the two mines is as
follows:
