GAME TODAY.

GAME TODAY.
The Portlands will play the Lynns again
this afternoon. They have now broken the
line Of defeats, and are determined to strike
a winning gait. Mitchell and Weidman Will
be the battery for the Portlands.
PoRTLANDs, 5; hymns, Q.
When the news was brought to the city
last night that the Portlands had won
game, 1t was hard for people to believe 1t.
Only one hundred and fifty or two hundred
persons saw the thing done. 1t looked
towards the close as IL the Lynns were going
to be whitewashed, but the eighth inning
brought a streak of bad luck and poor play
ing. But when the home nine won the game
in the ninth inning they were given round
of cheers, and it seemed like old times.
Neither side scored for two innings, al
though McAuliffe's wildness came near Civ
ing the visitors a start. In the third, Stine
hit safe, went to second on wild pitch, to
third on McAuliffe's out, and was batted
home by Fusselbach. In the fifth, the Port
lands scored an earned run, McCloskey hit
ting safe, going to second on Fusselbach's
out, and scoring on Koons's single. In the
sixth, Householder hit for two bags, went to
third on Weidman's out, and home on Bra
dys rafting single, scoring another earned
run.
The game stood to in favor of Portland
until the last half of the eighth. Ferson
was given base on balls, but was thrown
out, Laroque hitting to Slime. Larogue stole
second, and went to third on passed ball.
Doyle hit high fly, which looked as If
Prince could get it, but, owing to the wind,
it fell short of him, Laroque remaining on
third. Then Back hit fly, which Koons
muffed, allowirs Laroque and Doyle to score
Black attempted to go home on Behan's hit
to ceptre field. but was thrown out by Weld
-Man at the plate, Behan meanwhile going
round to third. A moment later McCloskey
allowed ball to go past him, on which Be-
han started for home. McCloskey threw to
McAuliffe, who would have put Behan out
if he had held the ball. That tied the game.
The Portlands now went in for their ninth
inning. After two men were out, McClos-
key was given a life by Corcoran's muff Of
Persons throw. This ratified the Lynns,
and Fusselbach got his base on balls, forcing
McCloskey to second. = Then Koons, after
two strikes had been called ON him, hit for
two bases, bringing in both McClOskey and
Fusselbach. That hit won the game, for the
visitors were easily retired in their half Of
ninth.
If the P0rtlands had more courage and
pluck they might win fair share of games.
For two days, now, they Ehave 0utbatted
their opponents. Yesterday they came near
going to pieces in the most critical place, but
the fortunes were with them. and they did
not give up as soon as their opponents pulled
up to them. McAuliffe proved that he 10
able to pitch good ball. The timely. batting
of Koons, Fusselbach and Brady deserves
praise. In fact, the whole team played
good ball. The Lynns do not display any
great strength, but they are not playing
with the idea that they can't win. Doyle
made himself disagresable by insulting re-
marks to Umpire Bond about his judgment
on balls and strikes. The score follows:

Hall at 1890 a. m. today with j. j. Parlin, of
North Anson, as chairman, and Henry M.
Pishon as secretary. The committee on Gre
dentials reported that the representation was

presented the name of J. T. Higgins, of Bar
Harbor, for district delegate; ]. F. Murphy
presented Capt. r. w. Black, of Augusta,
and Mr. Moody. of Liberty, the name of
]. j. Walker of that town. Of these candi-
dates, Messrs. Black and Walker were Sc
leeted as delegates and Mr.. Higgins and
John W. Manson. of Pittsfeld, alternates.
As a candidate for representative to Con-

tion. B. F. Parrott, of Augusta, secured the

One of the most active participants in the

represented Augusta as a delegate, thus dis
regarding in most flagrant manner the civil
service rules, as he is federal ONCE holder.

BEN BUNKER CRIES FRAUD.
Browns; pisconsoIate Lieutenant
Bound for the Woods.
He Has Been Notified that no office
Exists for Him,
And Is not Backward In Freeing His
Mind.
[Snecial to the Press.l

AUGUSTA, May 23-Perhaps the man who
suffered most from the downfall of Chairman
Brown, Tuesday, was Ben Bunker of Water
vile. All his fondest hopes were blasted,
For several years he had been a candidate for
certain Office, but the party refused to give
it to him, and when his friend Brown was
slaughtered his last hope was gone. Today,
to add to his misfortune, r. Hoe & Co., Of
New York, who sold him his press, foreclosed
the mortgage which they held against his es-
tabishment. Today Bunker visited Augusta
for brief half hour and was asked what he
was going to do.
81 am going off into the woods fishing all
alone," said he, ''and no one will know
where it will be. The mental strain caused
by my labors on my paper has been so great
that by advice of my physicians | shall take
a rest am out of politics for the present
and do not know what shall do. | have
been semi-officially notified that | need ex
pect no office under this administration.
They say have been doing too much active
work against the Portland custom house."

could buy it. / have just had despatch
from Judge Redman of Ellsworth to meet
him and / think ii we can agree he will buy
the Democrat and remove 1t to Ellsworth.
1t has the largest circulation in the State of
any Democratic weekly excepting the New
Agel
nam in my paper today?" said Ben, with a
laugh. "Plaisted is very magnanimous. In
1880 Mr.. Putnam refused to vote for Harris
because he did not want to vote for one of
those cranky greenbackers. Now Plalsted
is toadying around Putnam, and claims TO De
the first man who nominated him."
Mr.. Bunker hi1ted that he should do some
work, and no small number of these cranky
greenbackers would refuse to vote for Put
nam. He asserted that Murphy and his
crowd had betrayed Brown, who had
thrown his influence for Allen of
Augusta for delegate at large. He declared
that in the balloting for committeeman by
the Kennebec delegation there was gross
fraud, the ballot box being stnned for Bean.
Eighty five votes were cast, while there were
but 81 delegates in attendance, and the
Oakland and Vienna delegates and one other
delegate did not vote.
One of the secrets which has leaked out
since the convention is that Gen. Plaisted at
the eleventh hour announced himself as a
candidate for Browns place on the State
committee and was only kept out of it be-
cause a change would be likely to give Brown
the advantage.

Pascal Porter, the boy preacher, who has
been astonishing congregations in Indiana
and Kentucky by his eloquent and learned
sermons, is only eleven years old and dresses
in knickerb0ckers; plated blouse, jaunty
hat and high button shoes complete his at
tire. In many respects he looks like an
ordinary schoolboy.
Correspondent Smalley Of the New York
Tribune says: London is full Of Americans
who have lately seen Mr.. Blaine in Naples
and Rome, and the general understanding
among them, derived from conversations
with Mr.. Blaine, is, that he does not contem-
plate the possibility even Of being named in
the Republican convention.
OF late Mrs. Cleveland has expressed the
desire to go away for the summer to some
quiet spot where she can have perfect retire
ment from seeing people. and recuperate for
the on-coming fashionable dissipation Of
next winter. Someone thinks this the devel-
opment Of royal taste. Marie Antoinette
