ball team added one more scalp to
their string last Tuesday evening,
when they defeated the Congrega
tional team 6 to 2. It was a closely
contested game, but the Christians
had a little the best of it from the
beginning. It was not till the fourth

home-plate. The game Friday night
between the Congregationals and the
Baptists is the last of the series. On
account of darkness coming so much
earlier, the game Is scheduled to
