VICTORY IS OURS AGAIN
The Seattles Defeated by The
Home Team in a Slog-
ging Match.
Both Pitchers are Hit Hard
and Often For Long
Strikes.
Sundays Game Completes The
Chain of Unbroken Vic
tories at Home.

What a slogging match! This was the
general verdict of the baseball game
between the Bellingham Bay and Seattle
mines Sunday. Freeman and Hope,
pitchers, were hit hard and often, and
both the in and out fielders were given |
plenty Of exercise. The home team put
up good ball until the sixth inning where
the game at this stage stood 10 to 3, and |
the home team evidently thinking that II
had the game won to certainty, played
careless and by combination OF errors,
muffs and wild throwing allowed the visl-
tors to score five runs, and In the seventh
inning the visitors scored two more, max
ing the game even. When the home team
went to bat In the ninth inning IT looked
like anybody's game, the score being 10 to
10. Mullee and Freeman were both on
bases when Rappold came to bat. The
first ball pitched, Rappold made lunge
for and sent it way over the fence, scor-
ing three and winning the game. AS
Rappold came home the crowd yelled and
cheered, and some enthusiast In the grand
stand gave evidence OF his appreciation
by throwing him silver dollar, which
Rap acknowledged by doffing his cap.
