HASH HALL NOT US.
The past week him witnowwd a
number of base ball games in our
city. The games were well at
tended by large crowds who seemed
to thoroughly enjoy the "port.
On Tlunsday afternoon a team
from Voucolla and a home team
made up of boys under 15 years of
age ctosscd bats on the Slouffer
grounds. Thu game resulted iu a
victory for the home team by a
score of 13 to 5. Some dissatisfac
tion was caused by the Cottage
Grove team's battery who slightly
exceeded the agreement in age and
and weight, but otherwise the boys
weie evenly matched and put up a
good game of ball,
Immediately alter the small boys
finished their game the professional
ami business men of Cottage Grove
lined up 011 the field to buttle for
stipremocy iu a five inning game.
The professional men proved their
superiority 011 the diamond and
won by a score ol 18 to 6. The
game was devoid of any sensational
plays but nevertheless it furnished
the spectators plenty of amusement
and that was what they had assem
bled for. The winners were imme
diately challenged by the clerk's to
play on Sunday, the losers to pay
for supper for the two teams, which
challenge was accepted by the pro
fessionals. The following
is the line-up of
the two teams:

On last Saturday the C. M. A
nine went to I.oranc where they
played the team nt that place,
which resulted in a victory for the
Lornnc nine bya score of 25 td i.
, On Sunday the game was pulled
off bctwesn the professionals aiid
clerks. Owing to the rivalry be
tween the two teams the nines were
not made up wholly of professional
men and clerks. The game re
sulted iu a score of 12 to 13 in fa
vor of the professionals. The
score was close throughout the en
tire game and neither sidchnd an
advantage until the last man was
put out. One thing that marred
the game was the loivdyism which
is not nil infrequent occurrence at a
ball game. In the evening the
two nines betook themselves to the
Sherwood house where an excellent
chicken supper awaited them, and
where the ferocious appetites of all
were satisfied to their heart's con
tent. The following is the line-up
of the two teams:
