vas boarded and found to be the DArone
Pedesta of Gsno a, = ba andoned and waterlosse
having a cargo of hard pine lumber. Every.
thing was washed from the deck. The
waves were making complete breach over
the bows and she irifted ashore in a few
hours. Everything was smashed 10 spiinters

from Pensacola, but il could not be told
whether she Was bound for New York or
Boston. The cargo is valuable. The wreck

In the vessels crew there. were 10 or l2 men

Colby's vs. CaIrabassetts.

WATERvnLE, Sept 2S.
The Colby base ball team defeated the
Carrabassetts of North Arson on the Campus
this afternoon by score of II to 8. A num-
Der of new men played with the college team
OF these Purinton and Barron showed up
very finely. Wages great pitching and
Purinton's batting were the features.
At the close of the sixth inning, the Cara
bsssetts led by one run, but in the seventh
fine stick work by the college boys and a
punching of errors by the visitors, resulted
in five runs for the home team.
After two men were out in their half of
this inning with one run scored, the Carrabas-
sets claimed they must leave to catch the
train and wanted the score to revert to the
inning previous thus giving the m the game.
The umpire could not see it in that light,
however, and declared the third man out for
leaving the game, and the Colbys were de-
clared the winners. Indications are that
the varsity" team will be much stronger in
stick work next season than for several
years.
