Manager Barnie trotted out two

Delaney pitched five innings for
Scranton and struck out nine men.
Fox twirled during the remainder of
the game and struck out four men,.
Binghamton's three pitchers, Mulderig,
Blaci1man and Murphy, showed a lack

one he has named and few minutes
investigation would have shown him
my authority. The last General Assem-
bly,, acting upon the information l had
given as to the failure of the trustees of
Troop B Armory to pay any interest on
the loan effected two years previously,
instructed me, in the event of the in
terest not being paid by q certain time,
to collect the "principal, interest and
costs" Vol. XIX, chapter SAD This
l could only do by foreclosure of mort
gage, and selected very competent
attorney in the person of Mr.. Rodney
to represent me in the necessary pro-
ceedings. The matter of his compensa-
ton rests with the General Assembly
and l hardly think your correspondent
has added anything to his reputation
for fairness, wit or brilliancy by at
tempting to ridiculc reputable member
of the Wilmington bar and reflect upon
the competency of an official who en-
deayored to do his duty.
