The feature of the ball game
which occurred in Calhoun yester-
day afternoon between the agra
rlan youths living in the vicinity
of Calhoun and the second nine
of this city, was the running
ability of the locals. AT the end
of the ninth inning the score
stood 80 to l in favor of the
locals but had the existing
weather conditions been more
favorable the probabilities are the
victory for the locals would have
been more decisive.
