ON THE DIAMOND.
s. robusburys 6-Lebanons $.

The ST Jollnsburv ball players won
a victory over the Lebanons, on the
latter's grounds. last Saturday, at
ter hard fought contest. Shufelt
pitched for St. Johnsbury, and al
though he was batted quite freely
the hits were scattered and failed to
count to the final advantage of the
Lebanons. Tom Bannan stood be-
hind the bat and his splendid throw
ing to second, catching at least two
base runners there, was a feature of
the game, St. Johnsbury made 8
runs in the Sd inning by neat
punching of hits, and at the begin
ming of the 9th the score stood to
5; in this last inning ST. Johnsbury
had the bases full, when Shufelt went
to the bat and made a hit that
brought in the winning run. The
score:

4 Surprised Landlord.

The so-called temperance hotel at
Rutland-the Bates House-was
searched the other day, and eight
barrels of beer were found in the eel
lar. Landlord Tuttle was very
much surprised to find that beer had
been slowed away in his cellar, and
said he knew nothing wha tever about
it-somebody had imposed on him
by hiding the stuff there. Evidently
the beer had been put there without
his knowledge or consent. So the
rum racket goes merrily on in the
would-be city of Rutland.

Goye's Colts s-st. Johnsburys I.

A change of pitchers for the home
team, change of umpires, and any
amount of kicking against some
close decisions-these were some
of the features of Tuesday after
moons game on the campus. And
vet in spite of several objectionab BILE
things in the contest, it was very
even one and a number of good
plays were made on both sides.
CLAYTON went into the box for St.
Johnsbury, but had poor control
of the ball, and Shufelt was substi-
tuted early in the game. The visit
ors played well together, their bat
terry being specially good one.
The home team attempted some
base stealing, but the visiting catch
er's throw was unerring, and only
one man (Meigs) succeeded in steal
ing second base. The two runs Sc
cured by the Colts in the fifth in
ming were the result of absolute care
lessness on the part of the home
team at critical point; every base
was filled by Hanover man, two men
were out and two strikes had been
called on the latter, when the catcher
lost track of the ball and while he
was looking for it two Colts con-
nected with the home plate. Bar
ring this bad break the game was
very interesting. Shufelt and eau
thier did some good hy-ca itching, the
former making the one lone run.
The attendance was fair, and the
bows who as usual, crowded we'll on
to the diamond, made noise enough
to drown the voice of the umpire and
disturb the game generally.
The score by innings:
s St. Jos3 G4l5a ooo6 1888 81
ST. Johnsburys 7--Gove's Colts z.
The st. Johnsburys put up a
splendid game of ball yesterday af-
ternoon and defeated the Colts by a
score of 7 to 2. In the first inning
the first batsman for the visitors hit
the ball clean over the center field
fence and made home run, and one
more score was made in that inning
but the fun stopped right there.
Shufelt pitched strongly all the rest
of the way through the game,
Gauthier supported him nobly be-
hind the bat, and in every one of the
remaining eight innings the visitors
were shut out.
Kelliher of the Colts, umpired fair.
ly, and it became evident early in
the game that it was St. Johnsbury's
day to play ball. Tabor was knock
ed out of the box, and an entire
change of battery was madein hope:
of saving the game, but it made nc
difference-"Chubb" couldn't contro
the ball and the game was lost
Clayton did great work on third anC
in the 4th inning assisted Bannai
and Meigs in a neat double.
