Being Given BY the New Haven Steam
boat Co.-Nice For Family Parties.
The Sunday excursions of the New
Haven Steamboat company to New
York are becoming very popular, and
the excellent management and fine
trips made are attracting public atten-
ton.
The company's boats are all commo-
dious and finely fitted UP, while the fact
that the return trip is made with the
Richard Peck, the so-cal1ed "Queen Of
the Sound offers another great in
ducement to those on pleasure bent.
These trips are very suitable for family
parties, as the best order is always
maintained, and nothing Objectionable
is permitted. The hours are also most
convenient, the boat leaving Belle
dock at 9 a. M, and the return trip be-
ing made at p. m.

NO PLACE FOR OLD GLORY.
A Lady That Objects to Seeing the American
Flag Used Like Rag.

That is pretty place for the American
flag. The man who put 1t there ought to
be ashamed of himself" was the indig-
nant remark of a lady, passing along
Water street, last evening, as she saw 9
large American flag, dirty and torn, wet
and bedraggled, being used to cover some
building material as well as odds and ends
and culch on the sidewalk.
Scores of other persons have noticed the
same thing in the past few days, and they
also have expressed indignation. Old
Glory was never made to trail in the dust
above mentioned as well as the scores OF
others, was righteous indignation.

A Communication.

We, the Blacksmiths' Base Ball Club
would like to say few words to the PEG
ple of Augusta and the Painters ball
team, in regard to the communication in
Yesterdays Kennebec Journal, signed by
the Painters ball team, accusing us o!
being braggers and squealers.
They say they admit our victory oven
the plumbers (of course they must) but
advise us to let outsiders do the Dragging
for us. We fail to see wherein we have
done any great amount of Dragging, but
still we claim to have something to brag
Of by defeating so strong ball team as
the plumbers. We have never heard any
team doing any more Dragging than the
painters are doing, and still they have
never painted the town red yet with any
team-although they say they can.
We have never claimed to be able to de-
feat the painters as we do not know them.
but they did claim to be able to paint the
town red with us. Now, painters. why
don't you get into gear and give us a chsl-
lenge as you ought to. 1t is your place to
do it, not ours, and if we do not accept it,
then go ahead-call us squealers or any
old thing.
You have won this game on every street
corner and under every electric light in
town, and really we would not be sur
prised If you could do it on the diamond,
but we will be watching how 1t is done.
(Signed)
Blacksmiths' Base Ball Team.
