Lacrosse Again Beaten.

Thursday last the Lacrosse ball
team came down over the Mo. Pacific,
to again try the metal of our team.
The day ewas windy but otherwise
pleasant: and pretty fair ball was
played on both sides: They brought
their own umpire, Mr.. E. E. Cone,
whose decisions were mainly good;
though he failed to get where be could
decide fouls. Pretty much the same
kind of playing was done as at La
Crosse, and the visitors will probably
now acknowledge that they are beaten
by the players and not the umpire.
Following is the score by innings:
3456789 Total
Lacrosse ...........- .....3 0 2 OO1 9 O-S
Great Bend ............... OO2 6 o o -12
Lacrosse did good work in the field
and behind the bat, but could not hold
up their ticks when they went to bat.
Quite a large number Of people turned
out to see the game.
