An-] DOUGLAS NEWS DOUGLAS WINS FROM BILLS One of the most interesting games from a spectator's stand- point was that played on the, local diamond last evening, when 'Ddug- las took the Elks’ nine’ into, camp for a 2 to 1 score in seven innings. Pitching an almost shut-out, game, Jimmie Manning won his eleventh straight so far this season, and his team was right at his back. Double plays became common, the most exciting one being in the Bills’ last half of the seventh when t¥cir first man un was walked by Jimmie, and their second knocked out a nice grounder which might have béen a safety to leave two men on -yvfl,h no outs end but one point befiind But Balog scooped it up to kill the runner to second and get it to first ahead of the runner 'there, and the rest was a cinch. This was about the only close call the visiting team had to make a few points while Douglas ' twice had the bases full when a nice hit would have brougiit :n two or three runs. e DANCE WELL ATTENDED The dance given in the Eagles' hall last evening proved to be an enjoyable affair. While many Ju- neau visitors returned home by the special ferry after the ball game, others came over and a good time was reported. Excellent music was furnished by the trio, Miss Rica Niemi, Esther Goss and John Niemi. — e SNYDER JOINS RUSH W. F.
