came in before the next two batters

came in before the next two batters
were retired.
It is remarkable fact that Of three
scores made by Morgan young Ball
made all of them. Luscher was re-
sponsible for the first by muf6ng a fly
which would have retired the side, and
on which Ball scored. In the. fourth
inning he scored on single by him
self, steal and single by McPhee,
and in the eighth he scored on single
by himself and a double by Rist.
Charles Luscher learned one thing
as a result of the game. He made
two rank errors, mufing fys within
easy range, all because he was not
accustomed to his place second base.
Charlie has played short stop from
time immemorial, and has fewer errors
in that place than any other man on
the diamond. On Friday he changed,
however, allowing Blrum to 60 short.
Birum is at home anywhere and it is
safe to say that the errors would never
have been made had he taken second
from the start, and Morgan would
thus have secured one less score.
Another feature of the game was
the superb pitching of Murfin. The
young man struck out Is men. He
throws the ball like lightning and the
heavy batters famed the air to most
of his pitching. He was caught by
Ron. Theiring and at times the ball
seemed to almost knock Mr.. Theiring
over, but he held it we'll, and did what
no one else in the club could do-hold
Murfin, with hut one loss at the plate.

FRIDAYS GAME

1t was not as pretty as was the game
of the previous day, and still there
were some brilliant features and two
or three exciting incidents in connec-
ton with the affair. It was between
Morgan and Redwood Falls and Red
wood Falls won by score of II to 3.
There was a big crowd and both sides
had plenty of rooters present.
The game was won by Redwood
by punching it's hits in three diff
ferent innings, together with some
wild work at the same time on the
part of the Morgan boys. In the third
inning after one man was out Murfin
pounded out two-bagger, Birum
made him score on a single, Martin
made hit and Birum crossed
the plate and Kelly got fielder's
choice, in which Martin scored. Kelly
was caught at second. Clifton made
a single and scored on a single by
Luscher. In the fourth inning three
more scores we're made on a single by
Fish, errors of MCGOWAN and Grimes,
by which Jones and Birum got first,
and single by Martin. Another
score was added in the sixth on two
singles by Birum and Martin, Birum
stealing second and coming home on
Martins single. In the seventh two
more scores we're made on a two
Dagger by Clifton, and an error of
MCGOWAN, by which Clifton and
Luscher both came home. In the
eighth Birum made a double and
