fore, Messrs. Hull and Woods,
were attentively listened to during
their addresses.
After that part of the days pro
gram was concluded the crowd re-
paired to the ball ground and wit
messed a very interesting game be-
tween Firesteel and Timber Lake.

game. Following is the lineup
OF the players and the score by in
rings. The score card did not
contain record of hits and errors
