did not desire to consent to that arrange
ment. Either Dilworth or Colye will
pitch for the Kennebecs.
Inc game yesterday was played under
protest by Bangor because of the childish
reason that by some mistake the Port
land management did not have two new
Dalls on hand at the time for the game
to be called, which was g. 15 The game
was called at 8 80 OF course this protest
will amount to nothing.
Magoon played neat trick in the first
inning. He was on first base and
O'Rourke was on third and two were out.
Magoon allowed Braham to catch him
off first. While he was dodging back and
forth O'Rourke made break for home.
Moore threw the ball in but Barkley
dropped it and we had score that we
wouldn't otherwise have had, because the
next man, Corbett, was out on fly.
Jack Leighton received and merited a
burst Of applause in the first inning. He
caught Judd's fly down near the big elm
tree, and then threw SO we'll to third
that Sharrott, as runner as he is, couldn't
reach there from second and was an easy
put out for Magoon. 1t was a fine double
play.
In the third Bark1ey was the first man
up for Bangor. One of Sullivan's ter
rife inshoots struck him on the right
wrist. 1t was very bad blow, the dis
coloration and swelling of the bruise be-
ing visible from the grand stand as Bark
ley walked by to get some water. Mama
ger Long bound up the wrist with a
Barkley pluckily picked up.his bat again.
The audience applauded when he drove
the ball into the field and would have
felt better if it hadn't dropped into
o. Rourke's hands.
Bangor had bad luck in losing run
in the third. Braham was on second
when Henry drove fine hit into left
field Braham had plenty of time to
reach home, but fell down just beyond
third, and scrambled back to the base.
He was left there, when Leighton caught
Judd's fly, the third out
Despite his severe hurt in the third,
Bark ley went in to catch in the fourth
and the first thing he did was to make
a fine catch of high foul after long
run.
Sullivan nearly bored hole through
Slater in the fourth. Bobby Moore raped
a swift liner at the big pitcher. 1t struck
his leg and stopped dead but he turned
round once or twice before he saw it.
Then he picked it up and drove it at
Slater with all the force of his big arm.
The ball couldn't be seen from the
grand stand. Slater was lucky to see it
and catch it just in time to prevent its
going straight through his abdomen.
In the sixth, after o. Rourke had stolen
second, Braham threw to Moore to catch
him off the base He threw high and the
started for third, but Bobby astonished
and disgusted everybody by deliberately
locking arms with him and holding him.
When he did get away for third it was
too late, and he was nabbed, but Umpire
Connolly gave him the base. The crowd

The Bangors kicked but it was no use.
In the eighth, when Sharrott was on
first, Henry struck out, but Terrien
missed the third strike, for the second
time in the game. Henry was out, how
ever because there was a man on first
base.
In the ninth Terrien got his first hit
for several moons. 1t was queer one
The ball stopped just in front of the home
plate and twirled around in the dust
Braham ran up after it 1t was no use to
throw because Terrien had his first all
the ball out into right field. Terrien
reached second.
1t will be remembered that some little
time ago, Manager Leonard made terms
with Tebeau second baseman of the Low
ellis, and practically engaged him to play
for Portland The sum Of s25 was sent
to Tebeau, but he returned it and that
was the last that was heard of him. But
that is not the last of the matter. Man
ager Leonard communicated with Presi-
dent Young and an investigation is now
in progress.
The outcome of Jack Leighton's home
run yesterday, was a very nice hat, pre-
sented to him by his many admirers last
evening Jack is a favorite here, and is
doing his best on the diamond.
