Il Was . victory from tho start-The Ath-
letlcs Put Up Fine
Game,

The Cheyennes were too easy for the Ath-
letics yesterday afternoon. In the first IN
ming the home boys began crossing the
plate and they followed it mp until seven
teen runs wore placed on the right side Of
tho SCORE book. They received goose eggs
in only two innings. The visitors ON the
other hand were all but shut out, scoring
one run in the seventh on Taylor's long hit
to centre. The local team batted Mann IN
all directions until the small crowd present
sighed for something to relieve the mcnot-
ony. The score would have been much
larger had not the visitors felded the ball
in excellent style. They could not hit keas
safe, though their playing on the whole
made favorable impression. The new
mon on the team showed up very we'll yes
terday, all hitting the ball freely. Barker
distinguished himself by home run and a
fine fly catch in centre. Lewis found
the leather frequently and Cahill
promises to do good work at short.
Iynott made two pretty fly catches in the
fourth inning and Mcdonald was loudly
applauded for a hard catch in the NTH in
ming. The umpire was satisfactory on the
whole. Several men in the homo team did
too much kicking when it was uncalled for.
The teams will come together again this
afternoon, when q good game may be ex-
pected. Coplinger. who was here with the
Denvers, will pitch for the visitors while
