ATHLETICS DOWN
X-WILMINGTOK
Game Was Well Played and
Was Very Interesting
Throughout

Connie" Mack's Athletics won from
Wilmington at South Side Park yes
tcrday by the close score of 2 to /, in
an interesting and very cleverly played
game. "Coombs' the hero of the
twentyfour inning Athletic Boston
game, was on the fring line for the
Athletics and was touched up in a
lively manner the local getting ten
hits off his delivery. Joe Meyers
twirled for Wilmington, and held the
big leaguers to eight hits. At several
stages Of the game it looked as though
the locals would tie the score, they
having twelve men left on the bases.
The necessary wallop was not forth
coming, neither was the run.
Lucas should have scored easily in
the sixth inning, but stopped at third
base, and this lost a golden opportunity
to tie up the score. The game was
played in one hour and eighteen min
utes, and was one Of the best seen here
this season. The features were the
fielding OF Tierney. Wiegand, and
Hartsel and the batting Of Greenwell

LOCAL BOWLERS
PERFORM WELL
Win Seven Out of Fourteen
Games From Crack PhiIa-
deIphia Bunch

wilmington celebrated the opening Of
the local Eastern League season in this
city yesterday. The crack Philadelphia
bunch was their opponents and that they
were badly shocked is putting 1t mildly.
Each team won seven games and with
any kind of an even break the locals
would have had ten.
The opening contest was an individual
race between W. T. Roach and George
Dunbar. who IS supposed TO be one Of the
best the Quaker City boasts Of. Roach
won four out Of the five games This was
Philadelphas first shock.
In the doubles Bill Bolen had case Of
stage fright and this event went to Phila-
delphla. In the three-man match the To-
calls barring the second game, rolled badly
and the Quakers carried off two out OF
tho three
by this time the cracks" were sore
but the best they could do was to boast
Of what they would do in the evening.
Wen, evening came and at the end Of the
five man match the QualSers had won one
the last and it was a horseshoe game at
that.
Philadelphia had all the luck of the
game in all the matches while 1t seemed
that the locals received all the hard luck
Tho visitors were not at all satisfied with
the medicine prescribed for them and
went home vowing vengeance the next
time
The locals deserve lots Of credit for
their great showing and it looks as IL
they will be able to more than hold their
own In tho big league The scores:

More cattle are shipped yearly from
Belle Fourche than from any other one
shipping point in the world. Belle
Fourche Is without exception the
largest cattle shipping station in exis-
tence. The yards are so equipped that
q train of ten cars of cattle can be
loaded in six minutes. Quicker time
than this has been made but this is a
fair average. During the last shipping
season $3.50 cars of cattle were shipped
within 80 days, making a total of nearly
100000 head. The fall of 1903 was the
banner year for cattle shipments and in
80 days 81, 1000, COO worth of cattle were
shipped from Belle Fourche. An
immense cattle country is tributary to
Belle Fourche, cattle being brought in
from four states, Wyoming, Montana,
and North and South Dakota. The
range is almost limitless, and within a
radius of $50 miles some half a million
cattle are grazing.
