THE NEW
MODEL
BUCKEYE
MOWER.

TN this machine is retained all of the original
IL Buckeye features, together with many new con-
veniences originating with the New Model Buckeye.
1t is made with a Tubular Iron frame OF great
strength and simplicity which is cast in one piece,
and dispeuses almost entirely with bolts.
The Gearing is very compact, thoroughly protected
and very accessible.
The Drive Wheels are sufficient distance apart to
prevent running over the cut grass.
By new device upon the Inner Shoe the heel of
the scythe is more securely holden down to the
plates, making more perfect shear and pre-
venting the possibility Of breaking the Scythe Rod
or clogging in the Inside Shoe.
A spring in the Track Clearer Slidedispenses with
the thumb nut and makes the Track Clearer self
adjusting
Three-inch Knife Sections are used, and the
speed increased.
The driver can fold or unfold the Cutter Bar, ar
range the machine in working order, or change it
from working condition ready for transportation
without leaving his seat.
The draft of the New Model Is reduced to the
lowest point attained, and has established Itself
self by numerous dynam ometer test-the HghteSt
dr0ught m0aUer in the market.
For Beauty of Model, simplicity of construction
and in quality OF material and workmanship the
Neao Model is unapprOached.

BASE BALL-The Resolutes went to Bruns-
wick Saturday to play the Bowdoin College
Club friendly game in return for the game
played here two weeks ago, and very large
party went down from this city to witness the
contest, which proved to be very close and ex-
citing, the Resoutes narrowly escaping defeat
only winning by one run in ten Innings The
afternoon was pleasant but a strong wind
somewhat interfered with the playing. The
Resoutes won the toss and sent the Bowdolns
to the bat, who failed to score, while the Reso-
lutes made three runs. Neither club scored in
the second inning. In the third the Bowdoins
made three and the Resolutes two;iD the fourth
the Resolutes added three more to the score,
the Bowdoins drawing blank. The score was
now to 8 in favor of Portland. The fifth and
sixth innings did not change these figures. In
the seventh the Resolutes made one ard the
Bowdoins two. In the eighth the ResolGtes
got another 'twhitewash" while Brunswick
was made happy by three more runs, leaving
the score to s, with one to tie and two 10
win. The Bowdoins went smlingly to the
bad, and by fielding errors and passed ball,
coveted one run was scored amid much excite
ment, and the game was tie, but with the
Resolutes an inning to play, in which to wild,
they played-a cy1bsr was the resut-9 to g.
and but few minutes left in which to play the
tenth inning before the train left for home. The
Bowdoins were just little reluctant to 60 Cd.
They had done well, better than they hoped,
they were content, but this condition of things
didn't suit the champions, and once more the
Bowdoin batsmen faced Leighton, and they
retired IN one, two three order. Wilson struck
first for the Resolutes and got> his first; Cush'
man popped up fly and retired, when st. John
knocked a bounder past the first base; Wilson
came home, winning the game, and rush was
made for the waiting train.
The play of the Bowdoins was an improve
ment upon their game here two weeks ago,
while that of the Resolutes, both at the bat and
in the field, was much below their standard
The following is the score:
