Defeated winchester Team Monday
Afternoon ny the score ofI7to
The West Virginia Wonders, the
crack colored base ball team of this
city, went to Winchester Monday
and crossed bats with the colored
team of that place, and after several
hours of smuggling by the Wonders,
they returned home on the evening
train. The game which was one
sided affair resulted in the score of II
TO in favor of the Wonders. The
team was in good form and they kept
the Winchester fielders busy running
after the ball. Bully Stewart, the
captain, claims the longest hit, the
ball going little over a mile.
The Wonders upheld their reputa.
ton OF being one of the fastest teams
in the valley, and now are waiting for
any team who is willing to be vic
tim. This is their second game this
season, both of which they have won.
