that number of shorts gathered on We
hicle tops and on the ridge southwest
Of thefparl1 Witnessed the special
game of ball between the Oskaloosa
league team and the Buxton Wonders
yesterday afternoon. The Wonders
were DEBATED, score Is to 2. Bridges

safe hits were secured by the visitors,
while Oskaloosa raped the ball for
twelve safe ones and passes were fire.
quenta The defeat was the second
that the Buxton lads have suffered
this year. They came to the city con-
fidant of defeating Oskaloosa. They,
showed up remarkably well in prac-
tice but in the first inning when Os-
kaloosa got four safe hits and five
runs the lads became nervous and
could do nothing Numerous errors
added to their discontinue during the
game and permitted the locals more
runs.
Oskalo6sa began business as soon
as they came to bat. Kensel made q
clean single and scored. Patterson
got three Dagger in this inning and
five runs were Melted. Cassibone
scored in the second Hobbs and
Bridges in the fourth. Seven were
piled up in the fifth on total Of two
base hits. Dalrymple got another in
the sixth and he and Hobbs took a
couple more in the eighth.
Buxton got two runs in the sixth.
A couple of bad throws in attempts to
cut the lads off at bases did the work
and they narrowly escaped a shut
out. Buxton plays very superior ar
ticle of ball, however, and some very
pretty work was seen several times.
Highly was first in the box for the
visitors and then J.. Steele. Lindsey
caught. For the home team Bridges
was caught by Donanue and then by
Henry.

The Saturday Victory.

Saturday afternoon when she defeat
ed Boone 1t was the hardest hitting
game of the season Both teams
were smuggling the ball and the honors
were about equally divided. No bad
errors were made by either side and
numerous sensational plays vert
seen. Mitchell, who was in the box
for the nome team, became i'll in the
sixth inning and asked for relief
Coates was substituted.
The game was the biggest sluggine
match that has been seen on the Local
grounds this season. Each team al
one time had all bases filled and as a
good slugger up Dalrymple struck out
for the locals and Pennington for the
visitors and the chances came tt
naught The game was intensely in
teresting for the grand stand, many
Of whom declared it the best of thu
season. Splendid fielding was seer
on both sides.
