The steamer Stewart came down Sun

among them the HurontOwn ball club
wearing the neatest and prettiest uni
forms that have been seen on the grounds
this year. The Hurontown club played
a seven-inning game with Jerry Reals

The members of Baraga's renowned
base bail club feel pretty jubilant since
returning from Escanaba, and they have
very good reason for it, too. They won
Saturdays game with the sandy city
nine by a score Of 81 to 6. and also Sun
days game by ID to G. In speaking of
the latter game the Mining Journal says:
Fortunately the Mining Journal was
incorrect in its surmise that because the
Baragas did not send any report OF the
game Sunday at Escanaba, they had lost.
Harry Coddington, the popular news nan
OF Baraga, sends word that the early
closing hour on Sundays OF the telegraph
office prevented him sending a report OF
that DAYS game. From his communica-
ton it is learned the Baragas were sue
cessfu In downing the EscAnabas Sun
days as we'll as Saturday BY score Of IA
to 6. He also says the Escanabas are
jisbanded for the season chiefly on ac-
count of several players having to leave
for school. During the season the
Baragas have played II games and lost
four, particularly good record aud one
which will 40 good way toward pardon
ing them for feeling somewhat elated
over their success.
The Ontsnagon Herald gotits feathers
RULED at little squib which appeared
In this column two weeks ago concerning
their alleged ball team, and perpetrates
the following "roast" In its last issue:
If ever our boys get another whack at
your team they will just wipe up the
greensward with them. Your team have
shown that they are afraid TO meet the
Ontonagon ball tossers, for on two occas-
sion already they have had engagements
elsewhere when challenged by our team.
You can bank all your sawdust that the
Ontonagon base bali boys are anxious to
cross bats with Baraga. There will be
no hole IN the fence this time. and your
boys will be the ones that will be shut
out.
The Ontonagon boys may have worked
all summer and succeeded In stopping up
that hole in the fence which they COM
planned about, but they may find they
have overlooked the holes in their bats
when they play the Baragas again. "Lay
on, McDuff; and id be he who first cries
hold-enough."
