VISITED THEIR NEW HOME.
Ladies Auxiliary of the 1st-1Oth-29th
Regiment Spent Yesterday at Long Is
land,

The ladies' auxiliary of the LIST, 10th
and 18th regiments gave very enjoyable
basket party at their elegant new home
at Long Island yesterday Considering
the weather the picnic was we'll attended
and those present declared it to be most
delightful time. A word or two may be
said about the ladies' auxiliary. Last
fall the members determined that they
should build, and without wishing to go
into their treasury, they decided to raise
the money by series of entertainments.
The result is that they have erected a
structure at Long Island of which they
may well feel proud and for which they
deserve praise. 1t consists of large, airy
rooms, besides which they have large
tract of land.
The house will be dedicated next Au-
gust, at the annual reunion, after which
each members family will be allowed a
certain number of days to enjoy the
healthful quietude of Long Island. A
vol is being dug near the house, so that
the inmates may have.good water This
enterprise of the ladies shows a great
deal of pluck on their part, and is speci-
men of the enegry displayed in that so.

union to take place wherever the mem
beers here may see fit.
He has given to Comrade Green full
authority to act for him in getting up
suitable entertainment. Mr. Morrill, will
be present, as he was last year. L asst
evening several members of the associa :
tion met at Bosworth Post Hall and vot-
ed that the reunion be held August Goth.
and that the place be one of the islands
in the harbor. Great Diamond has been
suggested The selecting of the actual
place is left to Major Green and Adjutant
Roberts. Mr.. Morrill, writes that he is
determined to have the affair as success
full as last year. There willsbe break
fast and dinner, with distinguished
guests. The notices of the reunion will
be sent out the last of this month. 1t is

hold their annual picnic at jSebago Lake.

upon by the laboring class of people, as
the one day in the year. when old and
young should go to the Lake and have a
good time.
This year is to be the banner year, com

Notes of the Game.

Yesterday Goodhart and Daley were the
heroes at the bat. Each got three hits
| with total of five
pitchers allowed man his first on four
balls
Terrien made little variety by having
passed ball, which allowed a score to
come in. This was such an unusual Incl
dent, that nobody felt any other feeling
but surprise.
Magoon is certainly falling off in his
batting seriously. 1t may be due to that
illness, which necessitated Wood S taking
his place at third, last Saturday. Tt should
be said to his credit, however, that he
very seldom strikes out. He will soon get
his eye on the ball again.
Yeager and Leighton did some fine
work in the field the former in particu-
lar, was very brilliant. He robbed Spill
of a two Dagger by jumping into the air
and pulling it down, and he spoiled an
other two Dagger for SPILL by changing
it into a single. He jumped and stopped
the flying liner, but was unable to hold
I@Cl65AtOh SdfOo a. oouPiO VI WV
baggers and possibly three by getting
flies after long runs.
Woods is evidently not a star pitcher,
but he can do good work and did do so
yesterday. He struck out three men at
opportune times, while Todd struck out
but one. He has good control and a big
out drop that is very effective. He is
probably somewhat out of practice and
will doubtless do better later. He is cool
and takes his time. He appears like a
man who is not easily knocked out of the
box.
Shaffer and O'Rourke cannot be found
fault with thus far, either in fielding,
hitting or running of bases.
The Broektons will play here today and
Sullivan will pitch for Portland. Every
body will want to see John Irwin on first
base again.
Other New England league games to-
DAY are, Pawtucket at Lewiston; Fall
River at Augusta and New Bedford at
