for very large crop are good The cold
spring weather retarded the growth Of
peach buds until the late frosts were

are healthy in appearance. In the year
of full crop Hunterdon county has
yielded 1.500, 600 baskets. 1t is expected
that that number will be exceeded this

A Romantic wedding.

A wedding took place in st. Peters
burg on Sunday which excited very gen.
eral interest. 1t was the marriage of the
daughter Of the Semenyosky regiment
of the imperial guard with Lieutenant

Infantry regiment. The young lady,
who is now f8 years Of age and has a.
ways gone by the name Of Eugsnie

Now comes the suggestion that our
ambassadors abroad should adopt dip
lomatic court costume. 1t is doubtful,
however, if it is acceded to. The simple
dress of an American citizen prescribed
for our ministers abroad by Secretary of
State Marcy in 1858 will answer every
purpose. Prior to that time American
diplomats had worn a simple uniform, In

Ho, for rhyme of the happy time

To the tide washed shore we find our way;
We run on the beach and plunge In the spray.
Or over the craggy rocks we roam
And watch the waves as they break in foam
Till the ebbing ocean reveals the home
Where the tiny barnacle dwells,
Where the starfish lie on the dripping sands,
And whore, as il waiting for eager hands,
Are curious. huted shells.
We spin along on our flying wheels
With thrill that the soaring swallow feels,
And under the shining moon we make
A glittering path on the silver lake
With our dipping oars as We merrily take
A row In our little boat.
Oh. the song OF these beautiful summer days
Should ripple with laughter like roundelays
Trilled from bobolink's throat
Then ho for glad vacation rhyme.

Incidentally the San Franciscos Won
the Game.
The Los Angeles Team Gives Its New
Pitcher the Weakest Kind OF
support and Bat Like
Juveniles.

II the Angels had been able TO hit the
ball at critical times yesterday, they
could have won their game, and against
frightful odds. 1t was peculiar game
In many ways. The 'Friscos started off
by hitting the Angels new phenom for all
that was in sight, and they had the con-
fdence that is bsgotton OF good long
lead. The home team, on the other
hand, had all that to contend against in
the field, and at the bat they had Louis
Balsz to contend against, and no one
was ever found yet who could tell just
what kind OF game Louie was going to
pitch. This was Just the day that Balsz
would fill the bases and then pitch in
vincible ball. Twenty Angeles reached
first base. OF these two completed the
circuit, one was caught mapping and
IL died on bases. At very many stages
OF the game couple OF hits would have
changed the complexion OF affairs, but
. the hits didn't come.
The San Franciscos fell upon Kay
mer's delivery with great force and pre-
cieion in the fret inning. Sharp hit to
C6utbL Muu Hu HWhWufu BVuAu utA0bbhpo
Ii into double. Levy bit to the same
place, and Rasty fumbled it long enough
10 let Sharp reach the plate. Carroll
& hit for one base, but was thrown out at
second. Ebright sent q high one to
right field which Pop failed to hold, taxi
ing third and scoring Reuben. Power
hit one to Glen that the latter missed,
and Power scored later on Maguire's
bounder that rolled between Hulen's
legs.
One of these runs the Angels got
back in the second inning. Hughes
beat out little one and took second on
Balsz's wild throw to catch him mapping
at fret. Kaymer then hit a Texas
Lacquer to right field which bounded
over Oarrolps head and was converted
into double, scoring Hughes.
~ Three more tallies were harvested by
the Nephews in their half. Levy sim
gled and Carroll was given his base.
Work then came along with double,
scoring the two runners ahead OF him.
Ebright sacrificed, and Power hit q
boundsr through Hughes that sent
Work to the e.plate.
In the fourth Carroll hit for one base,
went to third on Hulen's error of Works
bounder and stole home ON Ebright's
dy-out to Rasty.
The Angels got one run in the fifth
inning on bases on balls to Hughes and
Kaymer, followed by Rasty's two-bag-
ger down the left foul line.
The eighth inning was the corker.
Carroll popped up fly to short for a
starter, and Hulen promptly muffed It,.
Work and Ebright both hit singles, the
latter scoring Carroll. Work and
Ebrght then made the third double
steal OF the day, and as Hughes mnffed
the throw the former gslloped home.
Power then hit for one base, but the
ball was fielded into the air every time
anybody got hold OF it, and the deep
voiced Thomas doubted not but kept on
running till he had safely crossed the
plate. 1t was truly sad.
Here is how it looks figured out:
