John E. Kelley, aged Is years, son
of Mrs. VIM. Mehan by her first husband,
living on South Main street in this city,
died OF consumption Friday of last week,
aud was buried on Nc nday last. Kelley
when taken sick six months ago, was
feshy and only about five feet in height.
He lost flesh rapidly, and became merely
skin and bones. Six weeks before his
death, he began to grow, and at the time
of his death measured six feet two inches
10 height, but grew thinner as he grew in
length.

Well, we have met the enemy and they

Lambertville winning two, Pennington
one, and one tie game.
About three hundred of our base ball
enthusiasts and "roosters journtyed to
the county seat last Saturday afternoon to
see the slaughter of the innocents and
were well repaid for their trip. AT no
stage OF the game were the Flemingtonians
10 it, simply ouiplayed at oil points, and
our boys put up such game as is not
often seen, but when seen is fully appre-
ciated. The crowd in attendance was the
largest OF the season. Many Of the fair
sex turned out to cheer their favorites on
to victory, and, by the way, some of our
ladies can give goodly number of So
called ball sharks pointers on the game
and seem 10 be up to the times on the
rules, &c.
Third baseman Corcoran, of the Flem-
ington team, completely lost his nerve in
Saturdays game and the reliable player
was so completely "rattled that he did
not know where he was at" Disap-
pointment is hard to swallow, but the I'M
expected is likely to turn up at any time.
Score-11 to 3.
"To be beaten, we do not care so much
about, but to have our team laughed at
and made monkeys OF by an opposing
pitcher, is little too much for good
nature" So said trio Of Flemingtonians
of the Saturdays game. Score-11 to 8.

Though the investigation into the
methods by which William ]. Thompson
obtained his seat In the Assembly has
been practically barren OF results, the
money 1t will cost the State treasury is
not entirely thrown away. II is some
thing to have demonstrated beyond all
possible cavil the power and extent of his
rule in Gloucester City, which affects all
classes and both political parties, aud
paralyzes every effort to get evidence of
his misdoings sufficient TO bring him to
Justice. The contest which set on foot
this investigation, 1t should also be said,
was not inaugurated by Republican,
but by an independent Democrat who
was Thompson's opponent last Fall.

The return home of "Our Boys on
Saturday evening, after their glorious vic.
tory, was welcomed by general outbursts
of enthusiasm. The streets and the canal
bank, from the upper end of the city to
the station, we're thronged with people
cheering enthusiastically. As the special
bearing the conquerors rolled into the sta
ton and the team alighted from the
coaches the crowd swayed and pushed,
shouted loud and long. The welcoming
hu2za that went up at the station was
echoed and re echoed round the city.
Such a demonstration has never before
been witnessed in Lambertville. The
manifestation of such intense interest on
the part of all was well fitted to attract
attentive consideration and to awaken
many thoughts and emotions. The game
itself did not lack interest, for "Our
Boys" gave our country friends the finest
exhibition of fielding ever seen on the
Pennington grounds. AT times it was
brilliant. The largest crowd of specta-
tors that ever gathered upon that field
applauded their magnificent showing
The preliminary practice was of such
high order that the crack pitcher, Mr..
Haufer, who did so molly in the previous
game, became scared and asked the man
ager of the Pennington team to take his
name off the pitchers list and secure one
with more nerve and ambition. Had he
pitched with fair team back of him the
game would not have been so one-sided
1t is pity that our worthy friends had
no chance to use some of the many tin
whistles, horns and rattles with which
they were provided. Only once during
the entire game did such an opportunity
present itself. This certainly would not
have occurred but for the kindness of Mr..
Flanerty, who took compassion on his
opponents and let them bit the ball by
pitching them slow dew. drops.

suspected of being the South Side fire
