A FINE EXHIBITION ON JULY 4TH.

A contest that will be long remem-
bered, as it not only attracted so much
interest, but helped to remove the false
impression that colOred competitors
are not drawing cards in the land of
Sportdom, took place last Friday, July
4th, when the baseball league leaders
of the amateur class, the White Eele-
plants, played the famous Bolden
Bros team for large purse in addi-
tion to voluntary receipts from spec
tators. A very large crowd assembled
to witness the keenly contested game,
and a very noticeable feature was the
strict obedience to the umpire's de-
cision, with n decorum almost un-
paralleled in the history of corner-lot
baseball. The game was graced by
an unusual gathering of lady fans who
rooted for their respective teams in
tones which We're inaudible as they
were suppressed by the vociferous
yells of their masculine competitors.
The game ended in victory for the
White Elephants, to 3, with Fred
Hill, pitcher, and Theodore Epperson,
catcher George Parsons, who must
be accredited as our baseball author
ity, was the umpire, and better Sc
lection could not have been made, as
every decision was greeted with the
approval of both sides. 1t was splen-
did game, and spectators, black and
white, declared that a professional
league game could not have been man
aged better than the sportive exhibit
tion that was given by these two
teams. They will try themselves again
tomorrow at Thirty-first and Champa,
when Manager Bolden intends to carry
off the hOnors
