The Wiggle Creek base ball club have
another victory to their eredit, having
defeated the Loup City 2nd. nine in

score of G to 12. The game was

and proved very enteresting to a
large crowd.

Fats 20, Leans 8.
The game of base ball plaved here
last Monday evening between the fats
and the leans which resulted in an
overwhelming defeat for the latter and
a howling victory for the former. furn
ished more amusement to the square
inch than did the Great London circus.
The fat nine was composed of L.
Arthur, Henry French, E. A. Grown,
M.C. Mulick, John Madley, Ed. Snyder
J. W. Long. .Wes. Pedler and G II.
Gibson. The lean nine was tilled out
by W. F. Mason, A. 8. ('onger. Neil
Hover, Robert Mathew, T. M. Heed,
Mr. McCombs, Lew Owen, Chas. Gib
son and S. N. Sweetland.
The leans took the bat tirst and Lee
Arthur stepped into tthe box. lie
throwed the ball as hard as he
could and the batters pounded the air
still harder. In the lirst inning there
was nothing especially worthy of note
except that the leans were whitewashed
and the fats got live tallies, M. C. Mul
ick having aided in the fifth by bring
ing in the preacher on the home stretch
at a 2.40 gate.
Wes Pedler played ball as it nothing
had ever been the matter with him.
When Geo. Gibson came to the bathe
attempted to line out for a two bagger
but he caught the ball just below the
belt which made him limp a little.
This gave him abase and he finally got
straightened up and started for first
on a dog trot. Gibson played well,
however, and showed his lean op
ponent in the east wing of the court
house that he could run just as well as
he did when the campaign was on.
Mason was pitcher for the leans.
His balls were very hard t® hit as the
batter had to jump three feet hign to
get at them. Conger caught all he
coaid of them. There was no reason
given at the time for Masons high
throwing but it has since been gener
ally believed that he has two much
muscle. lie was relieved bv Owen and
he by McCombs, a gentleman past
the age ®£ sixty. In the last inning
McCombs made some very clever
plavs, abely supported by Hover on
first, and by Conger behind the fiat.
Henry French held Arthur’s hot
balls and Rev. Madley, as short stop
did excellent service. He won prolong
ed cheers from the large crowd and
when the game was ended had two
scores, a bruised shin and a skilled
arm to his credit.
Grown made a good fielder and a
good runner. He got everything that
camehisway.no matter how far lie
had to run after it.
Sweetland, it seems, could make bet
ter.time bare headed and ever time his
hat came oil it meant “tally Sweet
land ” The only trouble with him was
that he did not discard his hat until
late in the game,
Mart Heed and Robert Mathew
were a little out of practice, but they
did the best they could and that is
what tickled the old ball players.
C. Vv. Gibson played good ball. He
knocked a home run and is credited
with bis share of the gains as the game
progressed.
Sheriff Snyder went after the game
much the same as he dose a criminal
Whenever lie could’nt find the ball he
would call the balance of t he nine to
his aid. They would then close in on
it to prevent its further escape.
John Long did some first rate play
ing, and it is said that the leans some
what complain because be exercised
his practice and training on first base
so advantageously.
The game was umpired bv Prof. C.
Johansen and of cource the national
rules was strictly adheared to.

It promises to be a very interesting
game as both sides are confident of
victory and will contest vigirously
for every inch of ground.
