BASE BALL.-The Albany Juveniles
returned from Salem last night. They
played an almost entirely different club
from the one in Albany, in fact num-
her of them were the Leviques, and were
defeated 10 to IL. Miller who caught in
Albany for the Leviques played and
made two home runs.
The championship game between the
Albany Colts and the Monograms will be
played on Saturday in Portland. The
winner of the Oregon games will play the
winner of the Washington games, and
the victor of that contest will go to San
Francisco and play the winner of the
Callfornia-Nevada game, the final game
| OF the very interesting contest.
Speaking OF the coming game between
| the Colts and MonogranIs the Oregonian
says: Neither team has lost game in
the series in which it has played, and,
| as the Monocrams represent Portland
and the Colts the rest of the state, the
game will resolve itself into q contest to
determine whether the state champion
ship Is to go to the town or the country,
Whether the championship will be de-
cided by one or three games has not vet
been decided, but this will be arranged
| before the Albany team arrives. The
| Colts will leave for Portland Friday
morning, and are expected here that
| evening. The reputation that proceeds
| them is that they are fast aggregation
OF bali tossers. and that they put up
wonderful game OF ball for bows less
than Is years and Six months OF age.
Flemming. the pitcher, who Won the
pennant for the Multnomah club in the
amateur series played last year, by
pitching winning bali in the decisive
game between the Multnomah and Port
land teams, viii be in the box for the
Colts, and is pitching like a cyclone.
Those who know Fiemming say the
Monograms will not be in it, but the
Portland team inclades the cream OF the
local juniors. and the fact that they took
four straight games from the Phoenix.
Portland, Academy. Oregon Cry and
Mob Hill teams is good evidence that the
visitors will have no cake-walk.
u. Ii. Flemming, the expert pitcher OF
the Albany Colts, was bori. on March .,
1878, and hence is Is years and months
old. This has been proven by affidavit
