Base Ball.

The best game OF the season was
played at Miller Saturday, between
Burdette and the local nine. 1t was
a fine, close game up to the Sth inn
ing, the score standing II to 10 in
favor OF Miller, but on the last two
innings the visitors rolled up 10
more, while the home team secured
only 5, giving a total of 20 for Bur-
dette to II for Miller. The Burdette
boys are strong at the bat, and have
two excellent pitchers, Sell and Sis
son. They are undoubtedly the
strongest nine that has played in
Miller this season. Ralph Holloway
and John Lawrence were umpires.
Following is the score as kept by
J. l.. Reyes:
