tered hits and struck out at bat 10. He
gave four.free tickets to first base butout
slde'ol this pitched a good game. John
son landed well at bat and made 3 bits
during game.
The Marebfleld boys played ball in
their old way and no great errors wore
made by any of them; yet they did not
play swift ball owing possibly to the
reason that they didn't have to.
Hi Wright pitched excellently strik
ing out at hot 12 men and allowing onlj
9 bits. Jacobs behind the bat aleo did
good work, Tbe cheering was immense,
there was uo rude or uncomfortable
features connected with It, every body,
rooters and players alike seemed to
be in good humor. Af tor 'the garao the
MarBhfi old boys gave three cheers for
the Coquille and three cheers for the
Umpire T. E.Lyons,
MrLvoni umpired the game In a
highly satisfactory manner to both eldos.
Tho trip was a characteristic AmpiJ
can basoball excursion,
Going up there was wide speculation,
while such expresions re "If we win I
tike a now hat," I tale a pair of new
shoes," etc were quite common ; andone
man was so modest as to only demand
40 gallons (a gentle and reasonable do-4
mand indeed,)

NORTH DaXD V&IUNIIOX
North-Bend 3; Bandon 4. That was
the score ot Sunday's game at Bandon.
Tho garao was hotly conteraed and the
aroused the wildest enthusiasm on tho
part ot the spectators, but unfortunately
tho best of feeling did not prevail
and the North Bend boys returned
home In decidedly bad humor. Bearing
in mind the graceful wy in which they
took their defeat here a week beforo. it
seems that the Bandon team muBt havo
done some very offensive work to arouse
the feeling which was manifested.
One of tho North Bend boys says:
"Baum is easily tho best pitcher In the
league, but there their ncord stops.
Tho game they put up was anything
but gentlemanly, and Bedillion will cer
tainly havo to mako Streib play de
cent ball, else tho animosity will run
high between Bandon and the other
teams."
The North Benders also say that they
got the worst of it in the decisions.
Tho features of tho gamo wcro Beaton'
threo bagger and Saunders' catch in
right field. Graham pitched good ball
and was ably caught by Bliss, ,
Following Is the ffcoro:
