Ax intensely interesting game of base ball was played 011 the fair grounds last Thursday afternoon, between the Eldora gun club and the “counter jumpers. II. K. Bateson umpired the game and some of the boys do say that his rulings were greatly forniust the g. c, nine. After four innings on a side had been played, the laborious tusk of footing up the tally sheets was performed, when it was found that the score stood nineteen for the gun club to eighteen for the counter jumpers. The losers were to give a prize of a box of “Good Point cigars to the winners, but a dispute arose as to the reliability of the score, etc., and as yet the stakes have not been S forked over.
