In the first game E. Flaim held the Salt Lakers to 4 hits, while he was on the mound, but. he weakened in the seventh, when Allison took bis placj. On the whole there was only 8 hits allowed, but on account of 8 bases on balls. 1 man hit by balls, and 5 errors, the score of the losers was larger than the total number of b,its. The opposing pitchers,' Nobles and Harris allowed 13 hits and 5 bases on balls, which accounts for the large score. Helper got off to a good start when they made 7 runs in the first inr,ing, mostly due to errors of the Salt Lakers. They scored one more in the second and two in the fifth, together with five in the seventh and eighth. Flaim held impactly unil the sixth, when the railroaders scored five, and three in the sev- j eth, together with one in each of the two remaining innings. Slim Allison and Reese were the hitting aces of the contest, for each eot 4 out of 5 times at bat.
