Last Saturday afternoon Tim
Murphy's aggregation OF ball-tossers
from the growing town of Midland
tried to "batter" the local team. But
like many other crack organizations
that have endeavored to turn that
trick here lately. they "got left"
The Midland team was very much
strengthened by having McGee, of
Homecoming, do the twirling, and the
rooters from down the creek were up
in full force to jolly the boys along.
During the first five innings the
visitors put up good ball. McGee's
pitching was excellent, and Long, who
caught, gave him good support.
Brown, at short stop, did some very
fine playing, accepting every chance
and making some very sensational
stops. Altogether the first five innings
were played well, and, to an outsider,
it looked like Frostburg was sure to be
defeated. as the score at the end of
that inning was 10, in favor of the
visitors.
In the SIKH inning the locals began
playing ball as it should be played,
making six runs, and after that the
visitors were dead easy"
jackson was on the rubber for the
home team and after the fifth inning
did good work, allowing the visitors
only one run. Williams mad plenty to
do behind the bat, but did it we'll.
Though the game was long, it was
interesting, and there was lots of
fun"
Joseph Howatt, of Borden Shaft,
umpired the game Saturday. Joe is Il
very aifable gentleman and, of course,
pleased both players aud spectators.
The score was AS follows:

The New Bond Business.

But one bid for the reissue of water
bonds was made-that of the FIRST
National Bank.
This institution proposes to take the
whole $50, 900 at 1 per cent, charging
ST. 800 for its Offices in the transaction.
1t will pay all legal fees, engraving,
printing and all other expenses, and
take its pay in three animal install
ments of 5000 each.
The current annual payment on in
terest account is $2,S05; the prospect
i've s., 200-a saving of $605 each
year. The first three years the bank
will consume the savings thenceforth
this sum San be used to redeem the
bonds, which have an average OF a
years to run. Add 81 900 a year more
from net revenue, and it will be seen
that about $4,000 of the bonds will be
outstanding when due.
The bank accompanied its proposal
with Il request that an option of 60
days be allowed, during which the
legality of the proceeding will be
settled. OF this, however, the Of
feials have no sort of doubt, nor of
the fact that they will ultimately take
the bonds.

n Posthumous Explanation.


The prospective readers of the new
est or new paper are Informed by the
Frostburg Ners, late of Allegany
county, deceased, that
Mr.. Fairchild comes to this climate on &C
count of ill health. He has been sufferer
from bronchial trouble, and as result of
several attacks of Ia grippe, his physicians adj
vised him to live in mountainous climate,
and Frostburg more nearly affords those
climatic conditions that insure relief from
the ailment indicated.
In this Mr.. Fairchild exhibited rare
Judgment and Il talent for catching on
to exactly the right thing in dustess
salubrity.
The paper which now deserves at
his hands all elegiac finer in color and
deeper in pathos than the microscopic
panorama of the Pugent Sound Sun
SET" says also:
Mr. Fairchild is one who scarcely needs an
introduction. Among politicians and news
paper men he has a national reputation. As
editor of the West Shore, in Or, he attracted
the attention of the metropolitan press in less
than six months. The New York Journalist
declared that he had made the West Shore a
national paper IN a remarkably short time.
His matter was copied literally throughout
the country, and Puck quoted him five times
in one issue. As a platform speaker, it is
generally conceded that he stands at the head
at the present time.
These statements arouse expectations
most high, and which the JOURNAL I'M
affeetedly wishes to see verified.
1t is also understood that Mr.. Fair
child avows his ability and willingness
to make Frostburg known
where'er the sun
Does his successive journeys run
or words to that effect.
This, of course, will slightly over
reach the JOURNAL, which has been
able only to make the metropolis
known only where it is worth any
thing to be known.
But the courteous purpose of this
notice is mainly served in embalming
in these fadeless columns the ante
mOrtem introduction to its readers by
the editor of the Ne,cs of his amiable
and renowned successor.

excellent music furnished, and to get
glimpse at Rev Mr.. Mel, who played
the part of Santa Claus to PERFECTION
A view Of the elegant tree, which was
strung with presents from the top 10

traction.
The Sunday-school children of 81.
PauFs, who had given up their CHRIST
mas tree in order to assist the SaiVa-
tion Army in making glad the hearts
of little people unable to purchase
those joys so nearly connected with
Chris Krfnkle, sang songs like vet
Grams and thereby won the approval
Of the large audience. The rector, Rev
Mr.. Mel, conducted the opening SER
vices, but subsequently surrendered to
Captain Reid of the Salvation Army.
The latter called out two salvation
jubilee singers, who greatly pleased the
auditors
Then Mr.. Mel reappeared clad in the
robes allotted to Santa Claus, and the
distribution of the presents under
which the tree dropped was proceeded
with until every poor child in the build
ing had been made happy. The little
people present will not soon forget how
Santa Claus opened his heart for them
at st. Pauls.

ADJUSTMENTS. A

The Orpheum began its second week
last night to a fair house, with a new
bill and an entertaining one. The Boys
Hungarian Band is retained for this
week, it being its last in California Ii
Will play during the week thirty-six new
selections. Last night it gave one of
its best programmes, which introduced
for the first time a boy soloist, Mas
ter Peter SchwarZ, on the flugelhorn.
The lad is but II years of age, but played
like veteran, giving Isle NIGHT Boese,"
song, with charming taste and much
feeling. The applause accorded the
band was very sincere and enthusiastic.
Purita is a little girl soubrette who acts
and sings more than cleverly. Fred
Brown, in negro minstrel dancing, was
superior. His jig and rag time dances
are especially good. He introduces COM
ic minstrel songs also. Harry c. Stanley
and Adele Jackson appeared in a COM
edy and song sketch, in which Stanley
assumes two characters, that of ward
man and. that of a threadbare German
music teacher. his mimetic work being
first class. He may we'll be termed the
human clarionette. Miss Jackson is Il
very lively comedienne. She sings in
a fine, high, wen-trained and skilled So
prano. Her operate selections in trav-
esty, with Stanley as a clarionette, was
admirable and provokingly funny. while
musically excellent o. K. Sato, the
tramp and comic juggler is one Of the
most skillful OF jugglers and the most
grotesque Of pantOmimists. He had the
audience in roar of laughter many a
time. Harry Edison introduced his trick
pug dog Doc. The animal is so well
trained that he seems to be all but indie
pendent OF his master. His best act is
when Edison plays on bells. The pug,
standing erect beneath an arch In which
hangs a bell, plays his part also. Not
one OF changes, It's true. but ii is an
essential part, all the same, and Doc s
time is as correct as that of his master.
The entertainment closed with an ex-
bibition of modern magic and high-class
palming by the Belgian Servais Leroy.

SOMETHING IN THE LIQUOR.
A Mountaineer Who Doesn't Like
Sacramento Whisky.

'E. A. Fowler, you are charged with
being drunk said Judge Davis yester-
day morning at the opening of the Po-
lice Court session.
That's dead right" answered a typ
ical specimen of an early California
miner as he arose in the dock
You see, Jedge, I'm of the opinion
that there's sumh'm the matter with
this yer Sacramento whisky, cause
never get drunk on any other kind, an
you can jest bet that I'm an old-timer
I've been here in California for years.
Live in gulch up above Placerville
an done some considerable roofing for
gold in my time, an amt been drunk
for three years. Got drunk that time
on this yer Sacramento whisky. Can't
drink the dern stuff without gittin'
drunk.
Say, Jedge, let me off this time, an
III go right back to the gulch and stay
thar. Say, / done pretty well not to
git drunk in three years, didn't I?''
Then, in a confidential tone, as he
bent over and sent whiff of whisky
scented breath into the Judges face,
he added, But then you see I haven't
been in Sacramento and haven't tackled
this yer brand of whisky.
1t being Christmas time, Judge Davis
was inclined to look leniently on Mr..
Fowler's fall from grace, and allowed
him to go back to the gulch to do an
other three years penance.
