When the shades of night tent a TO- mantle side to a sail on the bay many a maid and her beau accepted the in- Vitation Of the bankers to go for a moonlight skim over the briny deep Ito the old light and back. and all for only a quarter" And 1t was about the time of twilight that every fellow who did not have buggy to take his girl for a ride had a genuine attack of envy, for there were hundreds of neat and sty- fish turnouts chasing up and down Beach street, and not one of them had lone man in it-tnere was always at least one lady. But such clouds of dust as the roads of Savin Rock sent up af- ter every passing wheel! It was a boon that there was 90 little wind astir. Toward evening the bicycles became annoying, and after dark they kept every one who crossed the dark streets on the qui yive lest he or she should be doubled up in a heap at the next step Fortunately there were few collisions, as nearly all the wheelmen were care ful to ring their bells continuously. An organ-grinder, one of the piano-on- wheels sort, lent city air to the resort
 
 gentlemen, with wheezy voice and creaky tone, sang and re-sang all the old standbys from Mamie. Come Kiss Your Honey Boy" on down through the repertoire of popular melodies. The minstre!s strolled from place to place. and never feilod to have more or less admiring audience.
 The athletic sports in the ball grounds were all very interesting, but the ball game and the tug -of-war con- test claimed the greater part of the en- thusiasm. The Nonpareils and the Bay Views did heroic battle all the way through an intensely interesting game of nine hard-fought innings. The former won out finally by the score of to 8, but the winning run was not made until the last half of the ninth inning, Donahue bringing in the decid- ing tally. The two teams were remark ably well matched and both played ex- cellent ball from the start, and all the way through. The batting was good and the hits well placed. The fielding was clever, quick and clean, and the pitchers did well, both of them, the re- peated strike-outs by Pitcher Mannix at . critical points being as good a feature of the game as any. The crowd was large and very enthusiastic, and the Tooters added greatly to the amuse- ment of the spectators. There was no kicking whatever and the game was free from any objectionable feature. Both teams are to be congratulated on playing ball in true sportsmanlike spirit and playing it we'll too. The makeup of the teams was as follows:
 Bay Views-McInroe c; Smith, D; Hennessy, lib; Quinlivan, ss; Conlan, 2b; Moves, 3b; Donahue, If; Coyle, of; Pickett, If.

 Conneff, umpire.
 In the tug-of-war contest it was un- derstood that there were to be three heats, the winner to get the best two out of the three. But only one heat of two minutes was pulled, and it was decided to let that determine the win ner The contesting teams were from the Horseshoers' union and the Labor CTS union. Great interest was taken In this event, as the men were all big. husky fellows, powerfully built, and every man of them looking for victory. The laborers got a. slight lead as soon as Starter Doughan's pistol cracked, put they lost it in a moment From then on the Horseshoers showed them selves the better men. How they null- ed and tugged, the muscles in their praWny arms standing out like whip- cords, and every feature of their faces set in grim determination When the two minutes were up the ex-alderman again fired his pistol, and the Horse shoers had about eight inches of the Laborers' end of the rope. The Horseshoers team was made up of Matthew Kenney, anchor: "Gover- nor" Eagan, Thomas Beasley, James Fitzgerald and James Connolly. The doughty Laborers were Timothy Hines, anchor; Charles McMorrow. Patrick Mcguire, Mike Hamilton and Patrick McNulty.
