The Clarksburg and Sistersville
baseball teams played the fastest
game of the season here yesterday
afternoon. The game was close
from start to finish and everybody
was satisfied until Sistersville
played the FIRST half of the ninth
inning. Our home boys when they
went to the bat In their halt of the
ninth inning had only two runs to
their credit against 4 run for Clarks
burg. Our boys made a run In this
inring and some say two, which
would have tied the score but the
umpire says the game stands four
to three and while a good many do
not agree with his decision they
MI cheerfully submit to his decision
knowing that If he Is mistaken 1t Is
an honest mistake. Umpire Hart
commands the respect of all who
attend the base ball games. He is
honest, firm, reliable, competent,
and If he makes an error, it IS an
honest one. AS we saw the game
1t was a tie, four to four. But
We will submit to the umpires de-
cision, that Is his business and he
knows more about ball playing
than we do.
The Clarksburg team seems to
be composed OF gentleman and
their conduct has made them many
friends here. These two teams are
playing this afternoon as we 60 to
press and the game will be holly
contested by both teams, The
score between these two teams now
stands one to nothing in favor OF
Sistersville IN the first game and
four to three In favor OF ClarkSburg
In the second game. Today will
sc tile the business as to who shall
be winner. We hope Sistersvilie
will lick them to the Kings taste.
