Y ourinson was easy.

Mr.. O'Brien is good umpire, nit.
Those catches by Handle and virgins
were very fac
we'll as the best of them.
Benner is playing good game of ball,
and his batting is very timely.
For man that don't play any oftener
than he does, "Dad' Handle is hard to
beat.
virgins is playing short as it should
be played, and not only that, he is dol ng
his share of the batting.
Word has been received from Harry
Taylor stating that he was taken sick on
Monday, and could not play with the
home club to NJ orrow.
The home club plays at Vineland to-
morrow. The game arranged with the
U. q. l. club. of Philadelphia, has been
postponed until next Saturday, the 14th.
Hoffman can play any position on the
team, and play it right too. He went
from third base to the plate on Satu rday
while the catcher had the ball. 1t was
one of the best steals ever seen in a game
here.
1t made some of the elderly gentlemen
think of their boyhood days when they
saw their old comrade, George Darling
ton ont on the field. He hasn't been in
the game as long as "Pop' Anson, how
ever.
Every time Harry Taylor gets the
worst of a decision he declares that he
will never pitch here again. That's only
little bluff of his. You couldn't keep
him away if you tried. By the way,
Harry has been pitching great ball all
the season.
Manager Sickler is telling his friends
that Woodstown bought off his battery.
Well, if he can find any consolation in
that let him have it. But if Mr.. Sckler
will look up some of the past games be
will find that the local ba tiers never.had
much trouble in solving the problem
when Yourinson was pitted against them.

Can any mortal mixture of earth's

Breathe such divine enchanting nour-
ishment?
Sure something holy lodges in the
breast,
And with these raptures move the
vocal air
To testify His hidden residence.
This is a week of moonlight con-
certs. A splendid program was rend-
cred at Emma Square last evening BY
the Government band and another
concert will be given on the Hawaiian
Hotel grounds this evening.
Emma Square was swarming with
people last evening. Many listened to
the concert in their carriages. There
were several wagonette and bicycle
parties present.
The band gave three selections,
when the bandstand was invaded by
William j. Cuelho and his Glee Club of
about forty Young Hawaiians, all
members of the Y. ii. |.
The club sang popular native airs
and were repeatedly called back to re-
spond to hearty enchores. A number
of solos were given also.
The band pleased with "a Reminis-
cence of the Midwinter Fair" by DON
| igan. Professor Berger was obliged to
repeat the entire piece to satisfy his
audience. Harry Ingham, the popular
drummer of the band, takes the i'm
portant part in this selection. His i'm
itation of Chinese girl singer was eX-
ceedingly clever.
