OLD TIMERS
CLOUTED THE BALL
. FAMOUS BALL GAME PLAYED
THIS CITY, MAY II, 10OO.-NO
TROUBLE TO FIND ROOM IN
OLD DAYS.

Nine years ago there was no trou-
bile to maintain a ball team in this
city, nor was there any trouble in
securing grounds on which to play.
That was before the date of $4,000
laaG and before the time when every
exartion was directed towards the &C
emulation of dollars, and when 1t
was not considered beneath the dig
nifty of merchants, bankers and pro-
fessional men to be members Of a
ball team.
The following is an account Of a
game played between the Wenatchee
and Mission teams and is taken from
the Wenatchee Advance of May IL,
1900.
The Mission Aggregation Defeated
Poorly Played Came Fruit
Eaters are Sadly in Need of
Practice and Lots of it
The Mission boys and the fruit
grounds yesterday. The day, bar
ring a little breezy atmosphere, was
a good one for lovers of the national
game. The contest, generally speak
ing, was a miserably poor exhibition
and the two teams struggled hard to
see which could make the most glar-
ing errors and long hits. They both
succeeded.
Col. George Woods, Of this city,
was the unanimous choice of both
teams for umpire and he bossed the
game in a very satisfactory manner.
Wenatchee missed Parr, that ton
serial artist and professional hair
manipulation finding it necessary to
trim whiskers and could not partici-
pate in the game. The Advance is
not going to tell the score. The So
ciety editor is using all the figures
save the 0's, and they have no place
on the tally card. Strike outs were
frequent and sharp, snappy plays a
thing to be seen now and then; not
often, but occasionally. A goodly
number of "rooters' witnessed the
game, but they were fair, and be-
slowed a liberal amount Of applause
on the visitors.

seemed that some of the boys could
hit the ball harder and run faster on
account of their presence
Mission has asked for a return
game at some date in the near fu-
ture, and Wenatchee will accommo-
date them as soon as convenient.
The game yesterday showed that
the fruit-eaters have got to have a
pitcher. With a good tosser the
locals could soon develop into a win
ming aggregation.
| Broken bats were more numerous
than bruised fingers. The two teams
had eight of the willows to start
with, and at the close only two were
in sound condition.
This same paper contains an ac-
count of meeting of the city coun-
Gil, and may be read with interest
by some of the aldermen Of the pres
ent administration:
The town council met at regular
place last Tuesday night, the Mayor
and all councilmen being present.
Bills were ordered paid as follows:
w. A. Sanders, SIS; J. J. O'Connor,
SIG; Frank O'Reilly, 1874; L. w.
Smith, $1,000; F. NJ Scheble, $50;
Chas. Becker, $40; Mrs. Dora A.
Harlin, $50; w. A. Sanders, soc.
These bills were not all allowed,
however, without some discussion.
Mr.. O'Reilly's bill was considered
too high by the mayor. that gentle
man having conceived the idea that
$3.50 per day was the amount agreed
upon, but investigation proved that
$3.50 per day was the amount for
day service only.
The bill of Mrs. Dora A. Harlin
for $50 was for insurance and it ap-
pears that the total agreed upon was
a less amount, but the insurance
company refused to accept the risk
at the price quoted by the agent and
the bill (s60) was allowed.
Mayor Ferguson informed the
council that Attorney Whited had
notified him that he would demand
sum of money equal to his costs in
prosecuting the water case In Ellens-
burg, and if the council paid it 81 or
such a matter would be saved in fur
Their costs. The matter was referred
to the town attorney.
Thos. Groves rendered his resigna-
ton as town treasurer, which was
accepted by the council. w. o.
Parr was selected as his successor.
Arthur Gums proposition re-
garding ditch through town, was
laid on the table until the next meet
ing.
Smith & Lowe, Leavenworth,
applied for a liquor license. They
offered as bondsmen Mr.. Geo. S.
Merriam and Mr.. and Mrs. E. Frank,
all of Leavenworth. The applica-
ton was accompanied by a. certified
check for $500. The application
was placed on the table until next
meeting.
William Turner offered a PROPOSE
ton to furnish water for the town.
A committee of the town attorney,
Councilmen Hall, Holcomb and
Beal was appointed to investigate
title to the water, ETC., and report at
the next meeting.
C. Will Shaffer was chosen for
town attorney, receiving four votes.
while one ballot was cast for Judge
Chase.
The council voted to purchase five
street lamps at cost of $25 each.
