Games Not Decisive.

The base ball contest between the
Fooney's of Pueblo and the Rodda-
Thomas Nationals Of this city on the
penitentiary diamond last Thursday
and Friday was not decisive, and it is
hard to determine from their playing
which is the stronger organiIa ton,
although the Nationals made the best
score. There was fair attendance of
spectators and some excellent sport
was presented, in spite of the some-
what unfavorable character of the
weather, especially during the progress
of the second game. On Thursday the
Canon boys were easily victorious,
winning by a score of to s. The play
ing on Friday was spirited, and, up to
the seventh inning, promised to be
triumph for the Nationals, but in at
tempting to make y double play
tumble was made at second base which
costs them dearly. The score, which
was to in favor of the Nationals at
the close Of the six inning, terminated
9 to in favor of the visitors.
