The Boston Boomers.

The Boston Boomers.
A real burlesque ball game, in which
the Boston Boomers were the lead.
ing feature, was pulled off on the
local diamond yesterday afternoon in
the presence of full grandstand who
simply had their curiosity satisfied.
The Bloomer team is composed of
five women and four men. Several
of the women are pretty good, but the
majority of the men can't play fast
enough to make it interesting for d
school team. Outside of the fun that
the grandstand had in roofing for the
girls, there was nothing to the game.
The score was kept until Clifton tai
lied 10 and the Bloomers runs. The
management of the Clifton team is
not responsible for the farce that the
visitors sprung as it had been repre-
scented that they play good ball and
generally entertain those who attend.
he Boomers don't play but one game

aggregation.
