ERRORS IN SEVENTH CAUSE LOSS
 OF GAME BY LOCALS YESTERDAY

The soldier team from Chilkoot Barracks defeated the locals in a fast game yesterday afternoon to 4, and won the $150 prize money put up for the game by the Fourth of July Committee. Errors by Kos key and Henning in the seventh in- ming paved the way for four runs and, after the locals had tied the score in the eighth, Woodland dropped an easy fly in center and allowed the soldiers to score the winning run in the last of the same inning.
 Both Fry. for Juneau, and Rogers, for the soldiers, hurled fine ball. Old man Fry was in great form and had his support not cracked in the seventh and eighth not man would have scored off his delivery. Until the seventh inning but three hits had been made off him and not a soldier reached second base in the first six innings, and in the seventh the first three men to face him hit infield grounders in which they should have been retired. In the eighth, after the first soldier up had singled, Fry struck out the next two batters and the fourth batter sent long fly to Woodland which he dropped.

The locals scored one in the third when Rogers support caved a little, and one of the three counted in the eighth was made possible by wild heave.
