WORLDS RECORD
BASEBALL GAME
Eo-ton an7 BTcoh ~ Nationals Battle
&c Innings to Il Tie-Oeschger
and Galore Stick 1t Out.

Baseball history was being made at
Braves field il Boston Saturday when
comparatively few believed it would
be possible even to star, let alone to
play, even an ordinary game. A new
world 5 record in major league base
ball was made, the Boston and Brock
lyn National league teams battling %
innings to a IL tie, being forced by
darkness to stop after three hours and
so minutes of play. The longest pre-
vious game on record was played in
Boston by the Boston and Philadelphia
teams of the American league, Sept /,
1906, but that one went only "a nm
ings.
Joe Oeschger of the Braves and Leon
Galore of the Robins pitched the full
26 innings, thereby establishing an
other worlds record and undoubtedly
one which will stand as long as they
live.
1t was one of the greatest games ever
played, but on account of the threaten
ing weather only about 1000 of the
faithful turned out to see the game.
1t goes without saying that every
one Of the 1000 remained to the end.
They saw the most wonderful pitching
stunt ever performed, and some classy
playing in thrilling situations, such as
one sees only once in a lifetime.
Brooklyn scored a run in the fifth
inning which was developed legiti-
matcly. Boston scored one manufac-
turcd on the same lines in the sixth.

CANYON CITY NOTES

The population of this growing suburb of Nenana is now about 120 all told, to which there are almost daily additions. Most of the people here are employees of the Alaskan Engineering commission. There are only three of the fair sex at the present time, but it is expected that when all the buildings now in course .of construction, and many more projected, have been completed, many more ladies will be included in the population, when dances and other functions of social nature will be possible. Resident Engineer Huston D. Mills is in charge of the camp.

GIRLS FORM TEAMS:
 START BASKETBALL

Inspired by the jolly times the men are having with their weekly public games and more frequent practice games, the girls of Nenana have gone in for basketball with an enthusiasm that insures lively times at Union hall throughout the re- mainder of the season
 The young ladies met for the first time of the winter at Union hall last night and had lively practice game as preliminary to the organ ization of regular teams. Among them were number of experienced players, and the others made up in enthusiasm what they lacked in ex- perience.
 It is probable that the girls will put on public scrimmage as soon as they have had sufficient practice, and it is also probable that the public will be given the opportuni- ty to witness double header exhi- bition occasionally, in which the mems and the young ladies' teams will cooperate.

 been practically completed The siding which skirts the platforms of
 these two buildings has also been but in, and everything is in readi- ness for receiving the freight The buildings are 100x32 feet each in dimensions. One of them is intend-
