Gaslon'struck out six and Pendergraft five. The Coloradoans were chargeable with four errors and the locals with four. The feature of the game were fly catches by Maryott, Blaine Kitzmlller and Cope, Burman be hind the bat for the locals played a great game. Some in the audience were in clined to think that the visitors' errors were Mioss" plays, but in this they were mistaken; league nlavers make errors as well as ft j amateurs.
