jamestown, July 7.-"There was no
rowdyism, no vulgarity, and apart
from the simple fact of the day and
the law, the whole game was a
splendid affair."" said Rev. Ogden,
Monday morning, discussing his
avowed Intentions to arrest every
member of the Jamestown ball team
who participated in Sundays game.
after watching the game, I re-
turned up town convinced that the
Sunday ball games at the ball park
are not chief among the wrong do
ings of jamestown residents on the
Sabbath On the main street of the
city, I saw people Of every denomi-
nation who call themselves Chris
tians and good church members, do
ing things and talking on subjects
which, while not against the law,
were far. worse in my opinion, than
the ball game.
Choosing between what I saw up
town and at the game, would
choose the ball ground as being the
better place to spend the day"
Rev. Ogden. was on the ball ground,
Sunday afternoon, shortly after the
game started. At the end of the
first inning he had a conference with
Capt. Nierling, of the team, and ad-
vised him to stop the game, saying
that otherwise he would be compell-
ed to swear out warrants for the ar
rest Of the Players. +
Nierling refused to stop the game,
and Rev. Ogden remained to watch
the proceedings. He admitted Mon
day that in spite of himself he be-
came somewhat enthused : with the
excitement of the game before it was
over.
During the game Rev. Ogden was
unable to procure the names of the
players, and had not succeeded Mon
day evening.
