STILL ON THE
TOBOGGAN.
The TailenderS in the State League
Beat us Easily.
HELD UP AT EVERY POINT
Yeager Was Pounded Hard by the
Visitors and His Support Was of a
Very Suspicious Hue.

Again defeat crowned the efforts of the
Shenandoah base ball club at the Trotting
park and the club slides down to third
place in the State league, while its great
rival supplants it in second place. Since
the Shenandoahs have been in the league
their tale has heightened by chapters of
woe and to-day their admirers are incon-
solable
In the game with the Philadelphias yes
teTday the coal diggers met one of the
most evenly balanced teams it has en-.
countered this season, and it was q strong
one, too; but with all that it should have
given the people a better article of ball
than they found. There were several
glaring errors that led the people to be.
lieve that there is something radically
wrong. Groans arose when some of them
were made.
The Philadelphias batted hard and
played with vim and snap They pounded
Heager's delivery into pulp and ran the
bases with speed and good Judgment.
When the coal diggers were at the bat
the Quakers played for all the game was
worth and the errors charged against
them were due to the rapid gait of the
game, and not incapability.
The Shenandoahs had hair-breadth
escape from a shut out. The run scored
was maze on errors by WeSlake, who
played eXcellently during all other parts
of the game. O'Hara hit the ball to
third and Weslake fumbled it. After
getting hold of the ball and before fully
recovering himself Weslake threw it out
of Masseys reach and Musser ran home
from third.
As in the game with the Philadelphias
on Friday, the home teams pitcher went
to pieces in the sixth inning. Yeager was
hit for four singles, two bagger and a
three bagger, and the scorching was in.
creased by errors on the part of Gill, Mus
ser and O'Hara
The Shenandoahs had very little chance
against the visitors in any part of the
game in the form they presented, but in
| the last four innings they were absolu.
| tly not in it. In each of these innings the
| coal diggers went out in one, two, three
order, getting only twelve men to the bat
during the four innings, while the Quak
ers got twenty-One men to the plate The
feature of the game was Staltz's work in
the left field.
1t is only fair to the vanquished team
to say that in some parts OF the game
their work was no worse than that of the
umpire. Al times his decisions were very
yellow and in one inning the spectators
hissed him vigorously. Still these decis
ions did not, as some say, give the Quak
ers the game. Had they been correct the
home team would have had two or three
more runs to its credit. Score

They also called his attention to the
fact that the next session would continue
only three months and would not probably
be very exaoting on members. Further
more, they called the senator's attention
TO the awkward condition in which his
resignation at the present time woud leave
New Jersey politics. The governor Of the
state is a Democrat and would, If he
should appoint a successor, select a Demo
crat, but the legislature is Republican and
is called to meet in extra session in Octo.
Der next 1t is highly probable, therefore,
that a Republican would be chosen to fiji
the term of the senator, which will expire
on the Sd Of next March, If he should re.
sign
These representations were apparently
convincing TO Mr.. Mcpherson, and tn
resignation did not go in.
1t is understood that the senator will
leave Washington Immediately, and in
view of the prospective early close of the
session viii not return. He contemplates
q trip to Europe, with the hope of securing
perfect restoration to health.

AN APRIL WEDDING.
FAIRCHILD JOHNSON.

Though the elements were holding high carnival, last Wednesday afternoon, and reminding one forcibly of the famous blizzard, yet they did not in any way in- terfere with the pleasant wedding that took place when Mrs Nellie A. Fairchild was united in marriage to Levau NJ Johnson at the home of William Fair child in Taunton district. Only the inn mediate relatives of the contracting par ties were present, among them being Mir and Mrs William Fairchild. Dea and Mrs Henry Fairchild, Mir and Mrs E l. John son, Dea and Mrs A C. Moore, Miss Katharine F. Camp, William C. and Charles F. Johnson, brothers of the groom, with their wives, Frederick F, Johnson, and Henry F. and Arthur II. Moore. Rev Otis W. Barker, pastor of the Congregational church, performed the ceremony, and was assisted by Rev George r Liusley, rector of Trinity church. The bridal party left the house In time to take the 5.42 train north from Hawlevvlle. Their future home is to be at Monument Valley, two miles south of StoCkbridge, Mass, where Mr John son has purchased farm of 4i acres. Mir and Mrs Johnson have a large circle of friends in NcwtOWn, to whose hearts they have endeared them~elVeS because of their loVable qualities, and they are followed to their new home by the most cordial wishes for success and lOng-con. tinued happiness. Some very pretty and useful wedding presents were received, among them neat and tasteful bedroom suit from members of the Congregation al church, in which Mrs Johnson has been faithful worker.

THE LAND OF THE SACRED GANGEs.

When IIindoo, Protap Mozoomdar by name, was visiting this country, he went as all sight-seers go, to Niagara. Afterwards he wroto: "N hen l stood near the vast crash of the waterfall, the whole heavens seemed to melt in endless masses of the Omnipresent fluid. Water above, water below, water streaming from horizon to horizon, water dancing, jumping, foamng, rushing, roaring. threatening you with destruction. l wondered why the American men and women did not build mighty cathedral near the Niagara, and with the music of the eternal cadence of the waters wor- ship God, the Greater of all that is great and vast" This defect in American life, discerning God through His nigh ty creations in nature, which the Hindoo so quickly discovered, is surely not a fault in his own land. The native re- ligion of India has from earliest times been nature-worshipping religion. With such charming scenery as India possesses, and such cloud-piercing noun tains, on the banks of such giant rivers, with such a clear sky, with such glOri- Ous sun, it is no wonder that the people have always looked at God as He has revealed Himself in nature. At the next meeting in the course of missionary sub jects, to be held in the Congregational church, Sunday evening, April ?, some thing will be told about the ancient re- lgion of India and it's religion to-day, how missionaries live there, and what are the signs of promise that Christ, in- stead of Buddha, will yet reign supreme in the hearts of the people. A most cordial invitation is given to all to be present who may be interested to learn of this suhieCt.

NEW MILFORD.
THE POSTOFFICE BURGLARIZED.

About , o'clock Tuesday morning, Officer Addis was notified by J. k. Bostwick, that his horse had been stolen. The officer at once started in pursuit of the thieves. He tracked the horse as far as Lanesville where the trail was lost. He went as far south as the new bridge and came back by the way ot Brookfield but without the thieves. About 7 o'clock when Postmaster Richmond ar rived at the postoffice, he at once dis, covered that the safe had been blown open and burglarized. The news quickly spread and everybody visited the office to see what damage had been done. MT Richmond at once routed out Ex-Post- master Anthony to get his assistance in making up balance sheet to ascertain the amount of shortage, which was found to be little over $70 worth of stamps. At o'clock in the afternoon word was received that the horse had been found in Danbury and that officers were on the track of the thieves, but at this writing "Wednesday morning) they have not been captured.
