.POMMERS VS.. CHAMPIONS.
GAME BREAKS UP WITH THE
SIXTH INNING.
A Boys Account Of a Ball Game
Between Two Amateur
Teams.

One of the boys composing the Pom
mer team of youthful ballplayers fur
nishes the following report of a game
played yesterday. There are lots of
baseball reporters who cannot do as
we'll. He says:
A very exciting game of baseball was
played at Ryans Athletic Grounds at
Fourteenth and r streets yesterday.
The opposing sides were the Pommers
and Champions. The Pommers We're
first to the bat, but only Nealson scored,
the others being unable to find Doan' 8
curves.
In the Champions half Geruix gained
first and came home on Doans single,
and the side retired after Baby Con-
rad hit to short.
In the second the Pommers were not
able to score, but the Champions got
one run, Mitchell retiring the side by
going to sleep on first.
In the third Bauer hit to Kahler and
was out. >Nealson hit to Crowley and
went out. Campbell hit safe to right
field and scored on Silva's hit Burke
ended the trouble by hitting to short
stop. In the Champions half three
runs were scored by Hauser. Fergerson
and Doane before the side retired.
In the fourth the Pommers scored one
run, and the Champions were shut out.
In the fifth Burke covered himself
with glory by catching a wild throw,
With three men on bases He also tied
the score by stealing home while the
catcher was throwing to the pitcher.
In the Champions half they scored two
runs. Fergerson gained glory by max
ing three runs.
In the sixth the Pommers had one
man out and Nealson tied the score, but
Baby" Conrad had a kick at the UNI
pire's decision. His side refused to
play, so the Pommers took the game
by score of 9 to O.
Both Doan and McCaffery pitched
good ball. Doan allowing only six hits,
and McCaffery seven. The score will
tell the rest:

ANOTHER VICTIM.
Henry Bracken Drowned While
Bathing in the River.

About o'clock yesterday afternoon
Henry Bracken, a molder employed at
the Union Iron Works at Front and n
streets. was drowned in the river near
ly opposite the gas works.
Bracken, another man and two wo-
men, were in bathing. He was an ex-
pert swimmer, and started toward the
middle of the stream, leaving his COM
panions near the shore. He had gone
a considerable distance when he was
seen to throw up his hands and disap-
pear
Bracken's companions, believing he
had merely dived, did not consider his
sinking as a serious matter until he
failed to reappear within a reasonable
time. They gave the alarm and though
a force of men promptly grappled for
the remains, their efforts were unavail-
ing.
Bracken had lived in this city for a
number of years. He has a brother
Charles Bracken, at Butte. Mont. and
sister Tillie Bracken, at Port Town
send, Wash. He was unmarried.

A CORPSE IN CHINA SLOUGH.
SAD FATE OF AN UNKNOWN
UNFORTUNATE.
Probably While Drunk the Man
Wandered Into the
Water.

About 8 O'Clock yesterday morning
the dead body of an unknown man was
found in the mud and shallow water of
China Slough, near the railroad depot.
The body was that of a man about
80 years of age. The hair was black
and a stubble of beard covered the face.
The body was undersiZed and emaciat-
ed, as though the man had been ad-
dicted to the morphine habit.
The man had evidently wandered
down to the edge of the slough and
stuck in the mud and slum along the
waters edge. He had struggled to
get out, but had sank into the quagmire
and finally fell over on his hands, and
not having strength to extricate HIM
self he was drowned or suffocated in
the ooze. There was nothing on the
body by which it might be identified,
and though a great many persons
viewed the remains in the Morgue, none
We're able to identify them. A cheap
brass watch in the dead mans pocket
had stopped at 3 o'clock.
