A Zine Exhibition Of Ban.

The game of ball between the Police
nine and the City Hall clerks, yesterday
afternoon, on the Island base ball park,
for the benefit of the Johnstown sufferers,
was a great success, financially. Taken
from a base ball point of view it was not go
much of a success, in fact the error col
umu would foot up almost as large as the
at bat column. Bobby McNichol oficia-
ted as chief cOacher for the police, while
Billy Carney was greatguyer. Bllyspent
his spare time in attempting to rattle the
other side.
The clerks didn't have man who could
do much coaching aud several times some
very queer base running WIS the result.
When man got to first cnce 1t pretty
generally meant score, it only being
necessary 10 get the bail pgOing when wild
throws and muffs would do the rest. Mr..
W. B Howell OBLIGATED as umpire, and
there vas no kicking, the result Of rule
thai the umpire could fine every kicker
iur the benefit OF the fund. After playing
from $50 till almst 6 o'clock, the score
stood as follows:
Police ......................6 10 l SIS
Clerks .....................4 . ! o.
Nearly every man on the two teams took
a hand at pitching and it would have given
a man the jams to have attempted to keep
a record of the changes. A very neat sum
was realized.
