Two game3 played on the home grounds with Valentine gave them defeat in both instances. The first nine innings closed with a score of 8 to 3. At the beginning of the game it appeared as it the local players would have things their own way, the Score standing a to o, but when the fifth was reached, Valentine succeeded in running iu seven scores and turned the tide completely in their favor. Hull did good work in the box while Freer was at bis best behind the bat. But in the fifth inning the visi tors found the ball and when three men were on bases the batter succeeded in driving a red hot one into the outer field which made it possible for the runners to score. This caused havic to our boys and the inning closed with seven scores for the visitors. Aside from this discouraging feature, the game was well played on both sides. Caylor, Valentine's pitcher, is certainly a ball player iu every sense of the word. He has good speed and staying qualities that were too much. for the Alliance team. After the first contest, aseven-inning game followed with the same team. Dr. Copsey took Hull's place in the pitcher's box while Caylor continued for the visitors. Fate was still against the local team aud the game closed with a game of 7 to 3. Following is the score: Valentine 1 o 2 o o 3 1 7 Alliance 2 o o o o 1 o 3 Umpires Thompson, Barnes and Cop sey. Among the good players of the Val entine team was Garland Wehn, who played third base. Mr. Wehn came up from Bridgeport Sunday morning and after pitching for the Elks iu the morning, did some good field work and battery for the Valentine team in the games with Alliance.
