The Aldermen Suffer More Than
the Pennsylvania Valley.
The deadliest execution ever seen on
ball ground was done in the four
innings played between the board OF
Trade Kickers and the Council Colts
yesterday afternoon. The bell was
rung shortly after l o'clock. when the
gatekeeper rushed in and announced
that $50 had been taken in. Umpire
Babb fined him IS for inattentiOn to
duty. The kickers went to the bat, and
Gen. Wilson, seeing the ball come limp
ing up to the plate, thought it was the
St. Louis road and smOte it severely on
the brow; result, three runs. The
colts went in and Aid. Grimes ham,
mered the ball for three bases.
The colts made one run. The
kickers and colts kept alternating
in this manner for an hour, every time
the umpire, an cratic individual with a
white hat who stood over by the play
ers' bench, declared three men out on
either side. the opposition went and
played hanky panky with the ball.
This sort of business was kept up until
gentleman named Murphy came out
and said there was to be q
game of base ball on the grounds at
o'clock, and requested the hanky
panky boys to vacate. At this time the
kickers had made eighteen runs,
twenty-One hits, nine errors and thirty
two "Charley horses" The colts had
nine runs, eighteen errors and sixteen
skinned knees. The features of the
game were Aid. Reeves work at short
stop and Fred Brueshaber's in the box.
The only thing lacking to have made it
perfect was lid and paddock on the box.
Judge Fish, for the kickers, chased
grounder so fast that his whiskers blew
off, and he showed up the next run with
clean shave. 1t was the only hit he
made during the game. DR.. BraZie
played an excellent game at second, and
Sam Morton offered him Hengle's place
at an increase of SO per week. The
