The Miners were In earnest in everything they did, even to the making of errors. The home team seemed stricken with a fit of awe at the rush of the visitors and they gave up the fight ere it was half over. Score, 8 to 3. The grounds were in much better shape than on opening day, but the fielding was not up to the standard of the first day's show. The Butte team committed eight errorsimany of which were costly and let in runs. Strange to say, the home team played with a clean mistake column. It was their utter lack-of ability to land on Pitcher Gay that lost them the game. Gay was in grand form throughout the siruggle. He had an assortment of curves that would fool the best batsmen in the business. Besides this, his change of pace was utterly bewildering and his control was good at every stage of the game. In addition to all this, Gay was kept exceed- ingly busy in flelding. He accepted eight of his ten chances. Jack Pflester, the southpaw from Co- lumbus, was on the firing line for the home team and he was one easy mark for the Miners. They.gave him an awful beating and never for a moment did they case up. In all Mr. Pfiester was soaked for a total of fourteen clean singles, which brought in runs whenever runs were needed. It was a gala day for hitting the ball over the right field fence. During the game six went out on Ninth street for two bases and nine doubles were scored altogether. This was due principally to the fact that Pfiester used wonderful speed and rearly every time the ball was hit it went over in the direction of the right field fence. Aside from this the game was an Interesting one and con- tained some snappy, fast baseball. Kane of the visitors carried off the hon- ors in batting for the day. He secured four safe ones and two of these were good for two bases. Max Muller, the Butte left fielder, was also handy with the club, | ¥nocking out three doubles over the right field fence. The home team marched from the club- house iu a line just as they did on open- ing day and then broke ranks when they reached the diamond. The team seems to have taken the hearts of the fans by storm and the team i4 sure to get a hand whenever it appears on the field for work or for practice. Considering the threatening condition of the weather there was a big crowd in at- tendance. The rain held off until the game ended. The score: Butte— R. R.H. P.

LOS ANGELES, April 15.—Helena shut out Reilly’'s Los Angeles team to-day in a fast game. There was no batting to speak of on either side, but what little there was came in the eighth inning, when Frary reached first on four wide ones and was driven home by Carisch's home run to the left field fence. Putnam was unhittable when men were on bases and hits were needed. Thatcher also pitched well. Both teams did clean field- ing. There was a small crowd in attend- ance, not more than 200 occupying the big bleachers. Score: Umpire—Mahaffey. R. H.

Up to the end of the eighth inning it was a 2 to 1 score, yet a couple of hours were consumed in the contest. The slowness was chiefly due to the dilatory actlons of the batters in taking their pilaces at the picte. The “next man up” was neyer in readiness. He leisurely traversed the 100 feet from the bench after the precedin stickman had gone down the line to fir The Portlands still had their ill-luck with them. They forged ahead in tb seventh to the delight of the majority of the onlookers, who always sympathize with the weaklings, but their Waterloo came in the eighth, when Engle lost his effectiveness. In that inning Gorton sin- glec and Lee sacrificed. Devereaux reached first on an error by Vigneaux. Engle made it a full house by furnishing Fillman with a pass. A siigle by Brash- ear brought Gorton home and a sa fice by Baxter performed a like service for Devereaux. Murdock put the finish- ing touch on Portland's discomfiture by scering Fillman and Brashear on a sin- gle. In the fifth inning Andrews, angered at a close decision at first, told Umpire Me- Denald it was the referee’s place to run down to the bag to witness the play. The suggestion was bluntly made and An- drews was retired to the bench. Vig- neaux then took third and Harlow donned the mask. The play was finished in a heavy shower of rain.
