( Peppery baseball was dished up to fcall hungry fans yesterday afternoon when the JBranchline league made its debut in this city, and quite a' debut jt was, for in a pitchers' battle pnc ' tuatpd with enough errors and hitting t(f break the monotony the national game was partaken in with good sat' isfaction to the fans, v Elgin and La Grande were the actors in the debut business, and the latter were a trifle the better actors, forging to the front in a tight 3-2 game on a peculiar se J of errors. Once in the lead, they were not overtaken. Elgin took the offen sive when Mclnnis was rapped for three bines in the opening canto, re suiting one run for Elgin; but the old-" time heaver settled down and went like a warhorse.' In the - warhorse business however, Smith was , going equally as well.'' La Grande wAi- the game on a foul foul not necessarily referring to a "foul" decision, but to a foul fly. Mclnnis was on first, in in the 5th when he was sacrificed to second on a caught foul. . Mason didn't cover the bag on a delayed -throw, Mclnnis . starting '. for,, third. Mason recovered and threw wild to Shelton, Heck going home, hence the" score on a foul.- It has probably not been duplicated on a local field. Elim inating that particular medley of er rors and a series in quick succession by Burzee, a Moose, the game was nearly free of boots and full of fast inffelding.A On the whole it was a bang-up baseball Smith and Mclnnis were' at their best and but for- the fatal fifth both would probably have been going yet.
