TALE OF THE OLD
Time D|R|GO BALL
i, TEAM OF AUGUSTA

Ossian D. Pillsbury Of Chicago. for
mer Augusta boy. arrived in the city
Thursday from Boothbay Harbor. where
he is passing the summer, to call on old
friends and talk over old times. He will
return today. OF course. the first call
was at "Wallie" Morse's. where the old
Dirigo baseball nine, Of which both were
members when that nine was champion
of Maine and everywhere else, was soon
brought up.
And a singular coincident occurred as
the writer stood there listening to the
old timers. Pitcher Morse asked Second
Baseman Pillsbury if he remembered a
certain incident and passed out the old
score book, which has before been men
toned in the Journal. Mr.. Pillsbury re-
pied that he did and began turning the
leaves of the book.
Here, Wallace, is the score Of that
game with the Portland North Stars
when we won the rosewood bat" and he
pointed to his name on the batting order.
saying:
II started at first base in that game.
Blanding, who played second, was injured
in the fourth inning and I was put on
second and played there as long as the
club lasted"
Then came the reporters turn.
mr.. Pillsbury, did you notice the
date?"
ono, I didn't-Great Scott! Forty-seven
years ago today!''
And sure enough, the rosewood bat was
won by the Dirigos of Augusta on Aug.
10, 1868.
The bat Is a handsome one, solid rose
wood and gold mounted. 1t was put up
as a prize and emblem Of champion by a
league composed Of Augusta, Auburn,
Lewiston and three teams in Portland.
The Dirigos won possession three years
in succession and it became the clubs
property.
It has for years been in the keeping OF
Green c. Flagg Of this city. who acted
as manager Of the team. A movement
is on foot among the players who own
1t to have it placed in the Lithgow Libra
~ museum or some other suitable pub
lie place, where it may be seen and ad-
mired by the old and young baseball
fans" and aid. perhaps. in a more gen.
eral interest in the national game.
That memorable game with the North
Stars was played in Portland. The UNI
pire was Mr.. S. Haggett of the Butcher
Club Of Portland and the scorers were
Mr.. Wright of the North Stars and Mr..
Achorn Of the Dirigos. Dirigo won 20 to
1s, very small score for that time. Time
