Show Wellsville Victorious. In the base ball game played on the local diamond Saturday last, June 0th, tho homo team went down to defeat at the hands of the Wcllsvlllc ball-tossers, to the tunc of 8 to 11. Tho score docs not tell a true story of the game, however, as It was not such a one-sided fray as the score might Indicate. Each team got the same number of hits, but Wcllsvlllc had the happy knack of bunching their slugs while tho Garland boys had tho unhappy falling of sprinkling them all through thu game. The Garland gladiators had the in whipped to a standstill in the out field, as they played errorless base ball. The playiuir of thu out field, thu work ofCi.mplicll on short for Garland, the catching of Topplcton mid tho batting ofO Matighau for tho Wcllsvlllc warriors war-riors were the features of tho fray. From the spectators point of view, tho game was not nearly so interesting as tho game played on the local diamond a short time, ago between the Drigham bunch and the home team, At times it was dccldely slow, and tho crowd could not suppress nil occasional yawn. About the only good, siibstsnclnl rooting that was done was bv a crowd of hearties from Tremout, who let pass no opportunity of rooting for the Wcllsvillo team. A word about the Wcllsvlllc boys: The very least that can be said is, that they aro a mighty fine, Jolly lot of fellows, and perfect per-fect gentlemen, every one of them.
