TEAM AVERAGES.

Boise outhit Salt Lake in the series
here, the visitors winning moro games
by better base running and the long
end of the luck. Blausser was the top
hitter of tie week, both he and Weaver
outbatting the Seagull Goliath, Huels-
man. Three Boise pitchers and one Of
Salt Lakes hit .375 or better. Moore
head, of Boise, and Galena. of Salt
Lake, both dropped from their custom
airy gait.
French and Potts of tho Seagull in
field shaded Schimpf and Bostick of
the Boise defense. Biausser outshone
Caldwell. The Irrigator batteries did
more fielding work than those of the
visitors. Weaver had is more putouts
than the Salt Lake catchers, and Jen-
sen and his pitchers pulled off II more
assists than Testers moundsmen. The
total aggregate chances of the two
teams were the same. and the Seagulls
graded just few points higher.
On this showing Boise may look for
ward complacently to the rest of the
season. Salt Lake has been supposed
to be far stronger than the other
clubs. but Jensens men compare very
favorably, according to the figures OF
their first meeting.

President Wilson to-day surprised tho
little town of Biloxi. twenty nve miles
from the Presidents cottage here, by
dropping in Unexpectedly at tho SER
vice of the First Presbyterian Church
there.
The little church was hardly hllsd
when the President and his family ar
rived. but word of their coming spread
instantaneously through the village
and soon tho structure was filled.
The Rev. William Megginson was not
perturbed by the Incident, however. His
sermon contained no reference, implied
or otherwise, to the President AS tho
latter left the church, a crowd that had
collected outside gave him cheer.
President Wilson'S party found the
fifty mile ride TO and FROM Biloxi the
most pleasant they had taken since
coming to Pass Christian. It lay along
the Mississippi Sound. which sparkied
with sunshine to-day. The roads We're
good. but tho cars moved slowly along
the beach. and many families ran to
their front verandas and waved to tho
distinguished motorists
