Saturdays Game.

The Yanagans took great big
brace in Saturdays game and pulled
off a good round score just to tell
Mike Finn that they could play ball.
each one seemed to realize that he
would have to report to the manager
Sunday morning and they were try
ing hard to win that last game. From
the manager on the bench to the boy
who picked up the bats fer them, they
were footing hard for every score they
got And they got them, too, as the
score of to 2 will indicate. Many Of
the spectators did MT see why the
second rater should run up so many
scores But the reason was that the
tail-end of those eight pitchers were

time since 1897, and the spring WASH /

The directors of the base ball asso-
citation met last night 40 consider some
important matters, tie most important
of which was the securing of the in
fielder Grubb from the Little Rock
team. Advices were received from
Managr Finn saying abe local associa-
tion could have Grubb if they wanted
him, and they decided to ask the play
er tc stay. Grubb will be left here
when the team goes to Little Rock this
afternoon. He was one of the five
candidate for the third sack on the
Little Rock team and is rated as n
first class fielder and an excellent bat
ter. He is gentlemanly fellow and
has already won home here if he
cares to accept it.
The association also decided to
place the price of the season tickets
fer children under IA yeas of age at
IS. The season ticket will admit to
grand stand when the child is accom-
panied by an adult. The refreshment
privileges are Mt let.

F ridsy's Game.

The game Friday was a surprise
even to the most arient rooter for Pine
Bluff. No one really expected Pine
Buff 20 win. but the way the name
less worders" walked away with the
whole pie was very satisfying to a
man with dyspepsia. The score was
5 to /, but the game was better than
that. About four hundred of these
who have been striving for month
to name the bunch Blue got together
were out to celebrate the opening OF
the season. When Murphy crossed the
plate in the first inning with the first
run, everybody said, "Well. they won't
shut us out, anyway When Litzen
berger came in with the sc oad in the
second some even began to entertain
hopes of an even game With the TRAY

Pine Bluff did not score until the

it was nice game up to that time.

McCOnnellsburg. 5; Hancock. I.

The home team defeated Han
cock all star aggregation gath
cred from Maryland, Virginia,
and West Virginia IN a hotly con
tested game Monday afternoon.
The visitors were accompanied
by a large crowd of rooters who
covered themselves with all kinds
of ribbons and drove out to the
field with horns blowing and pen
nants flying. In the first inning
with two men on bases, Thomp.
son hit to right field for . bases
securing 2 runs; 3 more were Sc
cured and Hancock could not over
come this lead. Eubanks of Cum
berland pitched for the visitors
and was hit at will by the local
team; on the other hand, Wagner
was a puzzle to the southerners,
and with proper support, would
have secured a shutout. Han.
cocks third baseman deliberate
ly trlpped Roy Wagner IN the 9Th
inning and should have been put
out of the game for rowdy ball
playing. Our team wishes to
thank the merchants of the town
for closing their business places
during the game, and also to
thank the whole town for the
splendid attendance.

Early last Sunday morning, a
dog, supposed to belong to Abner

up to McConnellsburg to do up
the town dogs or anything else
that came in his way. The visit.

what we may have to report when
the dog gets through with towns

The dogs bitten about town
have been killed, and the Burgess

any dog found within the limits
