BASE BALL


 trampled on by the Canadian Colts last Saturday The Colts foaad thorn or two in the first few innings, but this only served to put more life into them, and after the seventh there was no doubt the fiowefy band were no longer in the coveted first position Boucher, the new slab performer for the x. T.'s., was given bis first tfiai. and. although he showed up well, was found for the same number of hits and same total bases as WAS Iofiier the game previous.
 Magnan outpointed his opponent and pitched a steady game. Ia the fourth, Aith men on bases, he struck oat three men, and in only two in. nlngs was more than one hit made of him. It Is noticeable that in every game but one this season he has either lseen hit or been wild in the first in- ming This. the eiose observers bes liexe, could be overcome fl he would wafin up properly before he takes his position.
 Mofin handled the Indicator and had be stuck to his decision IT tbe fourth, he would have had no trouble, but after he .lad called Baigleis init to right fair, and the visiting playefs had resumed their positions apparently satisfied, he undertook to question his own judgment by aging whether or not the foul lines were on fair CT foul territory This started a vtangie which resulted in an uH@affanted protesting of the game.
