Another Victory for EIktOn.

The E!ktun Base Ball Club scored an
of July. The visiting club was the Ok
ford of Baldwins. Elktou went into the
field minus two of the best players, Per-
kins and lamar. The game was not par
ticularly interesting up to the close of
the seventh inning, when the score stood
to l.. The visitors batted Realey some
in the eighth inning, and this with errors
of the home pliyers at critica! points let
in four runs. The Oxford club made a
desperate effort to score i'll the ninth
inning and succeeded in getting two or
three men on bases, but failed to score.
The home club did not take its last in
ming. Rsaley occupied the box for Elk
ton in his usual effective manner, and
was caught well by Green. II. Henry
covered first well, and Giles in center
field and Hinchliffe in LEFT caught difficult
flies. Crothers pitched good game for
the Oxfords and struck several of the
players out two or more times. lie was
caught we'll BY Carr, one of the best
players on the team. Wilson, the visitors
first baseman, played good game. DIR.

High Praise for Senator Writ.

The July number of the Civil Service
Reformer pays the following high COM
plment to State Senator John S. Writ:
The address of Senator John S Writ
at ST. Johns commencement is notable
both for its high quality as literary
performance and for its significance as a
political declaration. Since Mr.. German
set the tone of our public men, we have
had few representatives in either the
State or the Federal legislature capable
of rising to Mr.. Wirt's intellectual and
moral level. But the revolt against Cor
manism, which has produced such splen-
did oratory in our city campaigns, has
now spread TO the Counties and is bring
ing the conscience and intellect of the
state to the front
Mr.. Wirt's presence in the Senate of
Maryland is itself most encouraging
indication of the decay of the spoiIs sys-
IN, and his work we trust will be potent
in its final overthrow. His words cannot
fail to be understood as new decara-
ton of his hostility to Gormanism, and
of his determination to follow up the
attacks upon the machine which he sue
cesslully led i'll the last Legislature.
