The third and last game in the series between the rival base-ball clubs- The Arcadians of this city [Portland] and the Collegiates of Salem- took place at the Oregon City grounds last Saturday. The game did not reach a fair and satisfactory close-being broken up on the ninth inning by a misunderstanding little short of a general row. The umpire has decided the game in favor of the Arcadians by a score of 9 to 0.
