dress who insisted on holding his hand
and looping over on his shoulder. Two
OF three gentlemen observed the situation
and hated for socund look. Their
smiles were noted by the yourg man. and
he released himself and came o. or to them
and said;
"Gentlcmen, let me explain. Did
either one Of you ever lie in the coun-

The closest and most interesting
game of base ball ever played in
Island Pond or vicinity was that of last
Saturday between the Lyndons and
Island Ponds. 1t was almost entirely
a contest Of pitchers, and they were
fully up to their work. The game was
characterized by that spirit of friend
illness and good-natured antagonism
which has been feature OF all games
played between these clubs, and the
visitors made many warm friends
here by their quiet, unassuming and
gentlemanly demeanor. 1t was not
our good fortune to see the game,
being absent in Portland, consequent
Iy we are unable to describe any spe-
cial features connected with it. The
following is the score.

The game on Wednesday last be-
tween the Gorhams and Island Ponds
was great disappointment to the
lovers of base ball, who had expected
close, sharp, and exciting contest.
1t was decidedly an off day for both
clubs, especially so for the home team
although occasionally some fine play
ing was exhibited. One thing we are
glad to note, that O better feeling
seemed to exist between these two
clubs than heretofore this was evil
dent by the quietness and smoothness
with which all matters connected with
the game were conducted that this
feeling may long continue all will say
amen. The game was called on &C
count of darkness at the conclusion OF
the first half of the eighth innings, the
Island Ponds making four runs which
of course do not count. Following
is the score:
