Merchants UnmercifuHy Slaughtered.

The Merchants base ball team of
this city came within an ace of be-
ing annihilated by a herd of Elks
with extra big horns Monday after
noon at the latters' ball grounds, and
if the aforesaid Elks had not been
benevolent, sympathizing and chuck
full of brotherly love, nothing could
have saved their SCARED and bat
tered townsmen from even a worse
fate. As it was, at the end of the
ninth round, the record showed that
the former had administered Is
knockdowns to their opponents one.
1t was just like taking candy from
a baby's mouth for the Elks. The
Merchants scored what proved to be
their first and only run in their half
of the first. After that, nothing
startling happened until the last
half of the second when G. Kinkead,
Esq, the Elks' own little Charlie,
who has once more returned to the
ring, strobe to the front of the stage
and ripped out a rasping double to
center, scoring two men count 'em,
~ That bingle proved to be the
starting gun and after that the fun
flor the Elks) was fast and furious.
The runs showered in like dew-drops
falling from a tree. Everett pitched
fine ball, excepting two bad spells,
but the support he received was sc
heart-breaking that it was almost
laughable. The Elks, almost without
exception, played excellent ball,
Brockman let only two punches gel
away while Everett allowed about
ten. The ground was in such a con,
dition as to make fast fielding i'm.
possible. Pete Kinkead in tn,
seventh made the peachiest catch o
the season.
