RAGGED GAME PLAYED SUNDAY Last Sunday the Star &Crescent baseball team of Butte played the local team on the home grounds, and the ultimate result Of the game was a badly disgruntled crowd of baseball fans, the game at the finish and in the last half of the 10th inning winding up in a wrangle and the Butte players leaving the field. Right from the outset it was practically conceded that the home boys would be beaten, as there were four missing from the regu- lar lineup, and if they won at all it would be a miracle indeed, inas- ntuch as the deficiency in framing up the team was taken from the Butte team's substitutes (nice thing for them) and a couple of other players who had not caught a ball before this season. The game that followed this pe- culiar lineup was a continual round of errors, misplays and a jangle to finish, butIdespite this the score at the end of the ninth inning stood 3 to 3. At the lint half of the 10th the Butte boys made one score, making:the score 4 to 3 in their favor. In the last half of the 10th with the home boys to bat, they hneFtwo men on bases, and only one out, when by a mistaken decision onithe part of the umpire, precipitated a general kick on the part of the Butte aggregation and they walked off the field, thereby forfeiting the game. Had they stayed at their stations, as true lovers of the game should, and not Played the \baby act,\ the umpire would no doubt have rectified hitt decision, and the game finished In usual style. It is to be depleted that Any game shall have such an outcome, an it not only gives tile town and management a bud name, but serves to disappoint and dis- credit the lovers of the game who pay their coin to see the same, and who are the life -blood of the whole organization. Some brilliant ploys were made it is true, among them being the hard batting of H. II. Iluber, who at ons time made it home run, be- sides a couple of two and three bnggers. The pitching of Chet McCall was good, and if he had been properly supported, would have meant much more. Several good plays were also recorded to players in the infield. There is some talk of a . general reorganization of the te.atn, some being dissatisfied with the present management, and till not lend their support in a loyal way. Just what the outcome will be is not yet known, but one thing is cer- tain. Whitehall has an abundance of good material to make up `a crack hall team when everything is working harmoniously. • BOTH OF THU' IN THE SAME FIX The story is going the rounds of a couple of young people in n neighboring town who attended church recently. 1Vluen the col- lection was taken up the young man commenced fishing in his pockets for a dime. His face ex- pressed etnbarassment and he hoarsely whispered: \I guess I haven't a cent.

Bullets flew thick and fast Fri- day night in the vicinity of Main street. Lead fel! like rain and there was plenty of excitement for a few people, including the new marshal and his deputy. Fully fifteen shots were exchanged and not a person injured. The trouble started from the burglarizing of Counter's saloon shortly after midnight, the thieves entering the building by forcing open a rear window. The marshal noticed that the saloon had been entered and started upon a still hunt for the marauders, flushing teo sus- piciously acting men on it side street. In the chase that resulted, the six-guns were brought into play by one of the crooks, and in trying to make his getaway, the fellow who did the most of the shooting jumped over a fence into the corral back of the Willow stable, dropping his revolver, which was found later. Both ot the miscreants were captured, to- gether with some dozen hoboes and alleged sheep -herders. The one eho fired so industriously et the marshall gave his name as Robert West, and was bound over to the district court under $2,000 bonds. The other, who had in his possession twenty boxes of cigars, called himself Frank How- ard, and was also bound over to the district court. Both men claimed innocence, stating that they were asleep in the corral when a stranger jumped over the fence and dropped the gun, disaepearing before they could determine who he was or what the tfouble was, F.

ROBERT DOHERTY, • Cold Springs, Mont. ••• • ••• NORTHERN PACIFIC BEEN ABSORBED? Has absorytion of the . Northern Pacific Railway company by the Chicago Northwestern Pacific been itecompliehed / Such is the question that is being freely dis- cussed it all offices of both lines in this northwestern country. No one seenta to know Anything defi- nite about it, yet all Admit flint such a rumor is current for some time. \ 1.001:4 as if we've been awnl- honed all right,\ said one, \but we have heard nothing from head- querters.\ It is staid that on the eastern di- vision of the Northern Pacific 1,500 freight and passenger cars have been pulled into the shop, given an entire new cont of paint and emerged under the new !Mlle of \Chicago Northwestern Pacific.

Such a report lets not been con- firmed at the local offices as yet. While no statement can be elicited from local officials the statements contained in western pape're seem to indicate that the absorption is a neater of fact. The rumor is going up and down this state to the effect that J. J. Hill is about to relinquish his hold on the Northern Pacific railroad and permit it to work out its own destiny. We all know that the astute James got hold of the road in the face of the 1111V Which was framed to thwart just such a thing and the general opinion is, that he lets held the Northern Pae,itic in check while lie developed the Great Northern, a railrond nearer to his heart. We also have held the opinion that this hiss been detrimental to the best interests of a considerable portion of Mon- tnnn, though it may have been fortunate for other sections, es- pecially the Puget Sound country.

As a rule, the saying \competition is the life of trade,\ but in this instance we du not be- lieve that the chore term will ap- ply very successfully. True it is that for some time past the destinies - of the Sunlight have been handled in a very care- less manner, causieg It great duel of (11%1,mill:talon to its numerous readt•rs.

It is lensed by the present management for a term of one mid im piivilege of three years; with no conditions whatsoever in our lease, in fact in true legitimate wits', the name as any other lensed party. Trutclt it is that some are warm enough to accept nothing butt nbeolute dic• tutorship to assure them (lint the vapor is on the %goitre, but we be- lieve that this can be proven to them in time and this feeling over- come.
