All persons attending base ball
games here In Bingham In the future
are requested to avoid trespassing on
private property in reaching the dia-
mond, taking special notice of the
signs at the corner of Meadow and
Milford streets. The management
have been notified that unless further
trespass is avoided they will have to
give up their grounds and this will be
great pity as no other place is avail
able for the purpose.

On Saturday May Both, one of the
most interesting base ball contests
ever fought here was witnessed by
large number of people. The contest
which was between the Caratuuk and
Bingham teams lasted for fourteen
long innings. Both teams we're very
evenly matched In every respect, so
much so that the contest was only de-
cided after a hard fought battle of
fourteen innings. We regret space
prevents our presenting a history of
the game in detail as furnished by our
correspondent and we are obliged to
content ourselves by giving the runs
by innings as follows:
