The City baseball league opened it's fifth season at Walnut Hill park Saturday afternoon with three glori- ous slugfests. The champion Bur ritts started their campaign to re- peat last years' victory with crush- ing 15-3 victory over the Rangers, slaughtering two pitchers and taking advantage of numerous errors. The Pirates and West Ends engaged in a thrilling see-saw affair, ten dou- bles. a triple. and two home runs being divided up between the two teams so evenly that first one and then the other went into the lead and it was not until the last of the ninth that the Pirates managed o eke out win by 1912. The Speed- boys. by virture of superior fielding amid spray of base hits, won from the Tabs by 11-s, coming from be- hind in the late innings.
 James Naughton of the public amusement commission opened the league by tossing the first ball in the Burritt- Ranger encounter It was a perfect strike-on the first bound-and J. Budnick swung vain ly at it. Then followed three games with action galore. The attendance was small. probably because of the Spanish war memorial dedication. but the fans who went to the park saw six teams working their hard est. The fielding was pretty ragged. but it should improve as the teams get more practice and wear off the early-season rough spots.
 Pirates 13. West Ends f2
 The Pirates barely nosed out the West Ends 13 to 12 in a slugfest in the second contest on Diamond No. 1. All pitchers looked alike to the batters and hits were scattered to all corners of the lot. Johnny Shee- han started for the winners while Cormier essayed to>serve them up for the West Ends.
 Both teams went out in order In the first inning but the Pirates SCOT ed two in the second. -Matulis dou- bled to left and was sacrificed to third by Howard. Cormier fumbled the ball and "Speck" was safe. He went to second and the two runners scored on Yankaskas' double to left. Solid smashes brought in six runs for the West Ends in the sixth. Huber reached first on Beagle's boot Arel singled. George Campbell dou- bled. Cormier tripled and Recano singled. All these were followed by doubles by Makula and Hinchy. The Pirates came back in their
 half to tie the score with four runs
 being scored. Beagle opened the inning with home run on the right field line Howard and Claire walk
 ed and singles by Sheehan and Hall and a double by Begley scored the
 runs. The Pirates got another in
 the fifth when Matulis walked. took second on an infield out and came
 home on Recano's error.
 The West Ends scored twice in the seventh. Hinchey walked and stole second. He went to third when ; Basil was safe on Sheehans fum-
 ble George Campbell walked to fill the bases "Red" Campbell batted for Recano and he walked. forcing
 in run. Another was scored on an
 error.
 Tn the eighth the Pirates scored three. Hinchey's error. Yankaskas' fly, single by Sheehan and doubles by Begley and Hall accounted for the runs. Doubles by Huber and 1 George Campbell. pass to Arel and

TRAVELLING DIARIES

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
PARIS.-The recent notice by the
bureau of health in Paris warning
against the sc of milk from the goats
of the city without its being first boiled
has reminded one that there are travel
ing dairies on many tree-lined boule-
wards and smaller streets.
These herds of goats, numbering
usually a dozen in each, are not found
in the Place de rOpera or the Rue de
Ia Paix, but in the populous Vilette
quarter on one side and in the quarter
near the Porte d'Orleans there are sew
eral such herds driven each morning
and evening to the homes of Gus
toners and MIXED on the front door
step.
Traffic does not scare these animals,
which are city and not country bred;
they skip in front of trolley cars and
taxis with no show of excitement.
Their owners pasture them on the va
cant land outside the Notifications and
they sleep in the open, so that the
revenue from the milk is almost all
profit
