A junk which came in last night
from Bnbo reported heavy firing in
the vicinity of Bolton Park. Later
news confirmed the utter route of the
Kolarefskie forces.

chowinski went up in a war balloon
with dynamite ballast, which exploded
in chunks and resulted in a score of
5 to g. Fearful slaughter
It is some fifty years ago that Father

Even in those days he was either a
"robber. thief, bum" or the man with
a good eye, Jumps: that's right, put
'em out" as the fortunes of the dia-
mond battle fiuctuated. Even so it is
unto this day.
In that strenuous 3. b. contest at
the park yesterday, Messrs. Harry Bias
set Mace and George Washington KEEL
ly were the objective persons. There
were no base decisions to argue There
were no close balls on the foul line
as basis for a kick, but there was a
continuous fretful chewing match on
both sides of the umpires on ball and
strike judgments.
First Mr.. Mace tried his hand, and
his eye. Chow Chow didn't like Mace's
voice and K. Kelly annexed the mask
and indicator while Harry went to the
bases. Kel wore the blanket as often
as possible, dividing the comfort with
N. Harnish. In the sixth round il was
Nick's turn with the pneumatic.
Kelly Was Laid Low.
A fast foul tip caught Kel directly
over his solar pleXus and he went
down like a load of sand out of the
rear end of farmers wagon. In lieu
OF the real apothecary variety Andy
Roth recited some dog Latin and Kel
was soon restored to life
This was the nearest approach to
mortality during that strenuous con-
test. There were many leading ex-
carnations, however. SO heated did
the battle become towards the shank
of the afternoon that more than one
excited athlete was threatened with
until after shutdown.
What would have been one of the
most intensely interesting contests of
the season was marred by the persist
ent oratorical contests between the pair
OF arbiters and the pale athletes from
the interior. The first three rounds
went off in faultless style. In the
first the visitors flushed a tally.
Lipe cropped Texas Lacquer over
Oyler's head and Smith did the mar
tyr act. Chandler, having never
played on the Savannah team, had lit
tie of those fraternal feelings which
some times dissuade athletes from
heaping defeat and humiliation on their
former comrades. So this Mr.. Chan
dler, formerly of Charleston, Augusta,
and now of Macon, ripped off a single
and scored the tackling expert of the
scrimmage of the day before.
savannah Couldn't score.
Although Dan Burt Jared the
Pickle Jar in the first with single,
there was little hope of tally, two
men having already returned TO the
bench without laurels. Daniel was
caught in mid-air on a high drive to
second.
The visitors emitted some more
sparks in the second. After Blake
had been thrown out at first, the Capt.
