possible to make. The liqis-up of the

Wooten, who was in the
box for Waycroas, pitched
an excellent game. He struck out
jive men, and the Patterson boys only
secured three hits. Not a Patterson
mao was given his base on balls. Lo
pez, the catcher for Waycross, also
played hit usual excellent game.
Anandez, one of the Cuban cigar mak
ers, who it a new man on the team,
promises to show up as one of the best
players in the city. Fred Brewer, who
1s also new on the team foHtHU Vcar;
played a good game yesterday. The
feature of the game yesterday was the
tiy ball caught by Williams in right
field. After a‘king run through ^the
high wfeds, Williams caught the ball
about a foot from the ground. This
play possibly saved the game, a* it
would have surety brought in one
man and given the bitter his second.

Cltlscni Complain.
Citizens living near tbe cros
sing of Howe ami Gilmore
streets, are complaining of a
nuisance'in the shape of a ter.
riblb stench which arises period
ically, but regularly in that
neighborhood. Whence it com-
oth no one seems to know. It
may be from a defective sew*
er pipe, from a ditch or from
some uncleanly backyard. The
fact remains, however, that it
does come and with stunning ef
fect. There can be no doubt
thnfthere is something dead up
the. branch in that section, of the
city where Howe crosses Gilmore
street.
The Herald has been asked to
mention the matter, thereby call
