Ti e following account of the Plattsmouth-Ifeatrice game is from the Lincoln Journal: "The Plattsmouth team 'saved their bacon' anil a shut out by Gate wood's men to-day by getting a base on balls and three timely sin gles, all in the last half of the ninth. It was a fielders' gamejniost ly, Myers being touched up for twelve hits, four of them two bag gers and one three 'sacker'. Snap per Kennedy was a trifle nervous on this his first appearance at his old home and made an error that nearly knocked the props from un der the grand stand. The grounds were in excellent condition and a fine game was put up by both teams, the local sluggers doing the work. In the fifth inaing Beatrice got live hits, only two of which were as small as singles." The score: I'l.AiTSJiorrii. A K if. 'II III !) A. K. Oeeii.K 0 0 2 3 0 Loija.
