DEFEATED BY CHICAGO TEAM.

Wrens Ron Up Against the Real Thing at Brook Wednesday. The ball game at Brook Wednesday between the Wrens and Brook (?) resulted in a score of 4 to 8 in favor of the latter, and our boys—local and imported—did well to keep the score down to even that. Brook had seven of the “Logan Squares,” a crack Chicago team, hired for the occasion, while our team added a couple of Sheldon experts. Brook, no doubt, expected to get some bets out of Rensselaer, while the latter figured on bringing home a little of the money they had dropped there in the game a few Sundays ago. As it was, both were disappointed, for no one bit from here so far as learned. Brook will play here to-morrow.
