EXHIBITION BALL CANE
 ALGONQUIN VS. SEWARD

This evening at 5:3O on the loca, diamond an exhibition game of base ball will be played between the team of the cutter Algonquin and the local aggregation. The pillchasers of the cutter have already played at Ketchi- kan and Latouche, losing out to the mining team The locals so far have confined their spring training to linn bering up few glass arms and Char ley horses. Last evening few turned out on the grounds and went through stiff practice-perhaps too stiff and the promise for good team in Seward this year is exceedingly bright. One thing is sure there will be an airtight infield with the outfield being able to hold it's own.
 It is requested that players be on hand early so that the game can start on schedule time, 5:3O.
 The local lineup this evening will probably be as follows: Pitchers, Tyer and Selby; catchers, Manthy and Holben; first, Hannon and Barn. dollar second, Painter; short, Good sky; third, Woodward; left, Elston; center, Smith; right, Durgin. Umpire Ellsworth or McMullen.

that he can enjoy all nature

enthusiasm full sway without

caught between here and Nez-

scheduled as follows: Cotton
wood at Fem; Greencreek at
