The most interesting and the most
exciting game Of bail played here thus

The fourth was shut-out Tor both
clubs, although the C. RS got three
base hits. In the fifth the home team
got at the ball and hit il for three bases
and home run. making four scores,
and again shut the visitors out. In the

Ncagle made base hits and Stillberger
was hit 10y pitched ball. THIS filled
all the bases. Vance fouled out to
Faatz, katZ came up and
made twO-bagger out to left
field, and Meakim threw the ball
to Baker, who turned and threw it
over smiths head, letting every man
home. McGinlcy got first on error of
O'Connor, and scored on Iiawley's base
hit. The visitors were now two ahead,
and the GrecnvillianS in the grand
stand were nearly frantic with Joy, and
pounded each other on the back, and
yelled like hyenas. In the eighth in
ming the home team scored two runs,
and tied the game, shutting out Green
vile. Bohn only pitched three balls to
the Greenyilles this inning. The ninth
inning was shutOut for both, and the
