A game of base ball played be
tween the east and west sides of
Main street last Thursday resulted
in a score of 13 to 9 in favor of
the east side , but Mr. Jackson ,
who was umpiring the game ,
claims to have made a mistake in
declaring the west side out when
all bases were full arid the batter
fanned out with no run. The bat
ter only was out Mr. Jackson says
but the mistake may have made
little or no difference in the score
yet might have evened up with a
good batter to run in and bring
the three in on bases.
