Payette, April 2S.—In one of the neatest exhibitions of baseball ever seen In the City, the Payette high school non from the Baker City, Ore., high school on the home diamond Thursday U f tcrn oon m the twelfth inning. the last halt of the twelfth Inning, " ith Payett ® at bat and one d °"n. shufer got a clean two-bagger and Goodwin followed with another. Shafer scored, thus erasing the tie score of 2 to 2, which had stood from the ninth Inning. The game was fairly free from errors and fast, snappy playing waa exhibited on both sides. It was, how ever, a pitchers' battle from start to finish in which Goodwin of Payette showed his superiority. During the entire game no man walked on either side. Goodwin, for Payette and Fosherry, for Baker, pitched the whole contest and both pitchers seemed to be getting stronger with the progress of each inning. Phetteplace of Payette pulled off some spectacular base stealing, and scored two of the three runs made. None of the Baker team was able to steal on Forbes and twice during the early part of the game his true arm spoiled the attempt of a Baker man to steal second. The work of Captain Crump at first and Shafer at short was most pleasing to the crowd. Short made several good catches in center field. G. B. Appleman of PRyette um pired.
