THE Scorer is in gleeful mood
over the result of the game he describes
below:
Last Saturday the "would-be'' champion
base ball team of Midland came up to estab-
lish a CnCh on their right to that title. They
went home looking like seCond-rate free-lOt
players and the championship of the county
still remains in this glorious metropolis
Walle Warren, Frostburg's new pitcher
made the heavy hitters of MurphysvilIe look
smaller than the next degree below thirty
one cents, and his ''slants, drops and twisterS''
rudely snapped the beautiful confederation
of triumphs which had hitherto made the
Midland path rosy broadway to AleXandrian
glory.
Manager Murphy wanted new umpire
in fact. every visit he makes here his great
desire is to name the umpireS. In his
opinion the honest umpire can he found only
in Midland, and his name is Keenan,.
After considerable time was consumed in
augmentation Messrs Firley, of Midland,
and Joseph Bone, of Frostburg. were selected,
and to their credit be it said their decisions
were well nigh perfectly just.
Warren, who is midget-abOut half the
size of the great and mighty Entler-was on
the slab for FroStburg, and his pitching was
a revelation. He held the heftv htters of
the Murphy aggregation in the hollow of his
hand and at critical periods was as steady as
a Cart-hOrSe.
Williams gave him elegant support behind
the bat and the in-tied playing of the
Gunnett brothers, Oder, Spates and Warren
was "a thing of beauty and a Joy forever"
In the out-teld Powers, John and William
Spates, were in skilful evidence and gave an
exhibition that was decidedly good. In
fact, the scientific way "Our Own played
the game fairly took the breath of the visitors
and at no time were they dangerous COM
peditors
The following is the tabulated score:

MONDAYS GAME.
Over 500 people gathered at the Driving
Park Monday to witness the game between
Midland and "Our Own" The crowd was
chuCkful of baseball enthusiasm. About
every baseball! crank from Mount Savage to
Piedmont was there determined to be seen
and heard.
On the third base side, along the bleachers
was arrayed the talent from down the creek
Here could be seen the true up-to-date high
grade rOoters. led on by Spot . ROurke-he
OF the fog horn voice. Just near him was
the human graphophOne, Walter Murray,
while farther down the line was the hand
some Henry Keenan,, thirty-third degree
roOter, whose breast expansion grew larger as
Mldiand's chances to win grew better.
On the other line along the first base side
was arrayed the Frostburg contingent-Wil-
liam +. Noel, together with his side patrons,
David Smith and William Shatfer, pilgrims
whose faces are never missed from ball
game and whose enthusiasm is warm as the
sun. Down the line a little further was
James Fuller, of Fuller Bros. Henry Fisher
Lloyd Taylor, W. E. g. Hltchins, and many
otherS-all topnOtcherS, died-in-the wool
baseball rooters from away back.
The grand stand was a bower of beauty, as
it was pretty well filled with the unparalleled
grace and loneliness of this unapproachable
locality
The game was good one though few
errors made it a eartbreaker to the home
contingent.
Little Wallie Warren was on the slab for
the home team and pitched a game that will
win nine times out of ten-only six hits be-
ing made Off his delivery. Williams, as
usual, gave him good support, his catching
being of the highest grade order.
George Gunnett, first base play was high
class art, but Captain DIN Gunnett's play on
third was very yellow" to say the least
His errors were many and costly.
The ut-tield played good ball and John
Spates running catch was decidedly IA feature
Warren, Williams and George Gunnett led
at the bat, having two hits each.
For the visitors Entler and Jacksons bat
terry work was well DONE though Frostburg
got enough hits to win any ordinary game
The support given the battery was tirst-cass,
especially the out field playing of Williams,
Kenny and Metz. Stakem and Williams led
at the bat, Stakem's three base hit doing
much to win the game for his team
+. }. Donahue was selected by manager
Murphy to umpire the game, and though his
decisions were at times questioned he gave
pretty good satisfaction.

The faithful rooterS still stay with YOU
They are ever ready to encourage an honest
endeavOr-win or lose.
There is no discount on Warren He is a
good pitcher and keeps the team playing ball
despite the errors
Frank Spates is playing good ball at short
stop. His throwing arm is AL. lie gets
them over to first in great shape.
With Midland the record is, including the
game at that place-three victories and three
defeats. If manager Murphy desires he can
arrange to play one or three more games
here. Five of these have been played here
1t remains with him to say whether he will
play the two remaining games or not.
PROSPECTUS
After the 18th the team expects to go to
Huntington for three games, one i'm Everett,
and one in Tyrone. This will about wind up
the season
Meyersdale is expected here for game to-
day Saturday Riley and Ray will do the
battery work, while Warren and Williams
will otliclate in that capacity for Our Own"
good game is expected, as the Meyersdale
contingent always give a good exhibition
here. Riley, Ray, Hoblitzell. Williams,
Thomas Neath-all the old favOrites will be
with the team.
A proposition has Just been handed me by

Now that Midland and Frostburg are tie on
