he Home Team Loses and Is Oissatis
fled With the Kicking.

ley League. Gardiner lost, Wednesday
in an interesting game that
was good while ball was played, but
very unsatisfactory to the spectators
who paid their good money to see ii pail
game and ont Il kicking contest. Inc
game was a closely contested one anu
had it been won solely Oh the merits OF
the game it would have been doubly in
teresting, even if Gardiner had lost. by
those who saw the contest IL muSt DC
acknowledged that Gardiner rather got
the picked end of the stick on decl-
SiOnS of the umpire ana that MS maj
decisiOn-the one that decided the con-
test i'll Hallowell's favor-Was sadly
lacking firm foundation. This taken
with the unusual amount of back talk
given both by spectators and players,
made the game one of not too pleasant
features. Good ball playing was seen,
however, and during the nine innings
neither team led more than by two
scores and this for only one. The game
by innings:
Blair was the first man up for Halo
well and by il little scratch hit was
thrown out by Henderson at first. Hig-
gins got d grounder between short and

given Arata. Here Higgins and Arata
worked a neat double steal. Brown
struck out and on a wild throw by Lam

retired the side by striking out. Score,
One for Hallowell.
