The ball game played in this city
Sunday afternoon was a one.sided
affair. in which the Billings team
made miuce meat out Of the Columbus
boys and but for the kindness Of the
home team would have resulted in q
complete shutout for the visitors. The
Columbus players are a g~entlemanly set
of fellows. but they need to practice a
few more times before running up
against such an aggregation Of ball
tossers as those of Billings. It comes
as natural to our boys to play ball as it
does to eat and they are said to be more
at home on the ball field than they are
at a dining table.
The Billings boys put up an excel.
lent game and Won many new admirers.
Rose, the new player at the second bag,
is almost a complete baseball nine il
himself, but all the glory is not due
him by any means Each player filled
his position more like a professional
than all amateur. The detailed score
given below gives one an idea Of the play
ing. Only ten errors are recorded against
Columbus, yet many hits were made
which should have been gobbled up by
their players, who failed to get hold Of
them, and they were necessarily made
safe hits. The game vas umpired by
Leo Mains, who gave very good salts.
faction. Nearly five hundred people
witnessed the sport.

BALL NOTES.

More Interest Is Being Manifested In the
National Game.
The Miles City club has written ask
ing for a game with our boys on the
Fourth Of July, but it is impossible to
accommodate them, as Sheridan is COM.
ing on that date. Manager Nix has
written them that he will try and ar
range a game or series sometime after
the Fourth.
Rose, the new secoDd baseman. who
has been playing with Red Lodge, is,
in the baseball vernacular, a peach. In
tho words of one fan, who witnessed
his playing on Sunday, he covers the
whole outfield az we'll as the infield.
Along with chunky" Hines. the
catcher, he is one Of the old players
from the Texas league, which has pro.
duced some of the best stuff that travels
the globe. .
Sheridan will . probably bring a
strong gang Of rooters with them next
Tuesday, but while they root our boys
will play ball. A good game is looked
for.
A practice grounds has been prepared
on a vacant block on North Twenty
fifth street, which is more accessible
than the fair grounds. The boys are
now putting in some steady practice in
anticipation of a great game next Tues
day with Sheridan.

The Helena team, which is the best
in the state, wants to come to Billings
for a series of games, Manager Nix re.
ceiving another communication to that
effect a few days ago. Arrangements
will be made to have the state capital
boys come here in a week or two. after
the Fourth, but not before u boys
have had more practice. Several OF
the players have been able to practice
only on Sundays, but Manager Nix il
not contented with this. He is trying
to arrange matters SO they can gel
away from their business places for Q
couple Of hours a day for the next two
weeks and by so doing will got il
good trim to 20 up against the STATE
CAPABILITIES. With a little more practio'
our boys can put up a strong gam
against the latter.
