Field Day in FILLER
Base Ball and Races Make

Miller Loses Game to
Visitors.

The base ball game which was
scheduled TO be played Saturday
afternoon with Highmore turned
out to be almost II field day.
Trotting and running races were
arranged bv the local horsemen
and the immense crowd that
attended the sports showed the
interest our citizens have in such
things. The affair was consider
ably on the inpromptu order
and was not well advertised, but
nearly every farmer i'll town
Saturday attended. The High
more delegation consisting OF
the ball team and about fifty
stronglunged rooters came in on
the afternoon train and went i'm
mediately to the park east OF
town. After q few preliminary
practice plays. Umpire Dwyer
called for the game to begin.
Harry Newton held down the
rubber and Dickinson officiated
behind the bat for the locals,
while Patterson and Johnson
occupied the same positions for
the visitors. The Highmore
aggregation started the initial
| round with a nice big goose egg
handed to them in the one, two,
three order and they took to the
field with a look in their eyes
that BODIED i'll for Dwyer's
bunch. In less time than it

received a dose of their own
medicine and were again in the
field. This time the visitors
/ found Newton Tor SeVefal hltS
and were retired only after safely
laying up two runs to their cred

scored, but in the fourth each
received one. The locals were
unable to cross the home plate
again until the ninth where they
laid up two thus making a total
OF 3 runs. The visitors landed
for two in the fifth, three in the
sixth, one in the seventh and
one in the ninth. The score was
then 10 to 3 in favor Of the
visiting team. The players to-
