Like bunch of frolieing school boys the Barons and the "Seepers" played the Init and run" to perfection yester- | day.
 From a scientific standpoint, the game was thoroughly off color However, on account of the prevalence of bingles the | scamperng of feet all over the field, the abundance of errors, and the piling up of l tallies. the fans had, a good time, the two and half hours consumed passing | pleasantly enough.
 The Barons won. The final score was Il to '. Manager Vaughn sent three twirlers to the slab. Ragan opened, and lasted but trlhe longer than one round. Turner, succeeding, piloted the Barons through nearly five innings, and Gin ger" Clark concluded the struggle. Man ager Malarky sent two twirlers to the slab Walker and Walsh. Neither was effective, the Barons piling up a total of eleven hits
 The ground was damp and the track exceedingly heavy. During the game, Catcher Garvin sustained an injury to a finger which necessitated his retire. ment. Meek was switched from first to the backtield, and Lister substituted.
