TWAITS VS.. HENDERSONS.
A Remarkable Game Between Brilliant
ff4tF Experts.

n
Had the managers Of the professional,
baseball clubs been at Oak Point yester..
day, there would have been a lively com
petition to sign eighteen players whose
skill has been hidden under the bushe
basket Of modesty heretofore.
If any one club had secured their
services the pennant fight would have
been settled at once.
Such terrific batting. agile fielding
accurate throwing and daring base rum
ming has not been equalled in the annals
of the national game This remarkable
performance on the diamond was given
too by Jersey City men. They were
on the annual clambake of the James
Henderson Association, named in honor
OF the genial Fire Commissioner. Twait
and Henderson selected the rival teams.
Thomas +. Dickson had the courage to
officiate as umpire. cdr" Edward Har-
rigan was supplied with bandages and
IMMINENT. Twait's inyinoibleS
were J. Bower, Samuels, Leach,
William Smith, Markey,. Ant
werp, Farrell, Sharp and Verrinder
HenderSon'S un~beatableS were Stuart,
William Chrutman, Cleveland, Jury,
Allen, Simons, O'Hara, Hogan and
Meany. They played three innings and
had to discontinue as the stock of balls
was exhausted owing to the tremendous
batting which drove the balls out of
sight. Scorer Daffeldecker had the
temerity to announcethat the Twaits a
won by q score of 20 to SO. He got no
CLAIMS and walked home. The excursion
was a success.
Aquatic Notes.
The Rosedale Boat Club, one of the
leading aquatic organizations of Hoboken
has just purchased the Dempsey House
for it's headquarters. 1t is located on the
Hudson River, at S~hadyside, Nj, which
is one of the most romantic places on the
American Rhine. A fine water course
is alsot TO be had there, and the members of
the above organization are congratulate
ing one another Don their good luck in
securing such an excellent place, since
they have been notified to remove from
their present location at Elysian Fields,
Hoboken. The members have not de-
cided as yet what they will do with their
old boathouse, but it will probably be
torn down and sold for secondhand
building material.
There will be no regatta held this sea-
| son by the members of the Orion Rowing
and Athletic Association. In the compe-
tition for the clubs mileage record medal
Frank W. Stone leads.
For the pair-oared shell event in the
next national regatta the Beck Brothers,
OF the Nonpariels, will probably be en-
tered.
The crack scullers of the Hoboken clubs
will probably not be seen in the races at
the closing regatta in this section.
The members of the Valencia Boat
Club, of Hoboken, have organized a bowl
ing club.
