The Ball Game.

The Atlantic high school base ball
team came in from Manning Saturday
morning where they had met defeat the
day before, and a jolly crowd Of rootars
came up from Atlantic, including quite
number of the young ladies of
the high school who were chaperoned
by Miss Wilson, the principal. The At
lantic folks were all right socially and
created favorable impression in Audi
bon. but as a base ball proposition they
did not meet with general praise.
The game was called at 1880 aud ut the
time OF commencing some talk wac in
dulged in az to limiting the time so as
to enable the Atlantic team to catch the
5:25 train for home We are unable to
learn just what was agreed upon, but
the general impression is that AGO was
to be the limit. This was not made
known to but one of the umpires so it is
safe to say that no agreement was made
Of sufficient clearness to be binding,
surely none that would enable Atlantic
to quit the game before four clock
The home team scored in the first
inning and shut out Atlantic without u
run. In the second and third innings
the Audubon boys went up in the air,
and their opponents made merry with
them and when the smoke had cleared
away the score was something awful for
Audubon to contemplate, but they
settled down and by good playing in the
field and batting bard were overhauling
the Atlantics in fast time SO that at tie
seventh inning the score was 10 % 10
Audubon had made something l. Ike nine
runs while Atlantic had made two runs
in four innings. Here is whore Atlantic
threw up the sponge and announced
that the time limit was reached and re-
fused to take the field to finish the game
even tho it was not yet four o'clock.
After much argument the umpire gave
them five minutes to resume play, and
six or seven OF the Atlantic team we're
willing but the others were not, electng
to forfeit the game rather than suffer
the defeat which was coming to them.
At the end of five minutes the umpire
declared the game forfeited to Audubon
by score Of 8 to and Atlantic caught
the train.
Audubon's ball playing with tho OK
ception OF the second and third innings
was good and the kind that wins against
any odds. Individual mention of
batting ability could be INDUCED in and
would comprise nearly the whole team,
but the home run hit made by Walker
was the particularly bright spot. The
fielding was good and after the case of
"rattles" the boys played crsditably.
Audubons battery seems to be their
strong point and it made good showing
Saturday.
The batteries were: for Atlantic, elise
and Guy; Audubon, McFarlane and
Walker.
