The ]. E. /. CONVENT
District Convention of the Epworth
League f1as Finished Its Labors
and Gone.
The Session Was a Very Successful
One and Will Bear Good
a.. Fruit.

The Epworth League convention was
well attended there being about forty
delegates from out of town. After the
greetings and responses on Friday
evening Rev. DR.. Forbes gave his lee
ture to a crowded house, which was
greatly enjoyed by his audience, as he
is very popular at Princeton.
The convention work of Saturday
drew good audiences and was inspiring
to the members of the Epworth League.
Thelecture on Saturday evening of
Rev. T: w. Stout upon s'What Man is
For' was excellent-given also to a
full house. The lecture was strong.
chaste, full of common sense, we'll sea-
soned: with grace-the kind of a talk
which makes one feel that he wants to
be better.
Services opened Sunday morning
with an early prayer meeting at half
past nine o'clock. A love feast was
held, led by Rev. w. c. McAllister.
Rev. H. J. VanFossen preached the
convention sermon, a very helpful
sermon founded upon the Life of Jacob,
after which large number partook
of the Holy Communion.
Sunday afternoon Mrs. J. W. Valen-
tine held service for the juniors
which was appreciated by a good audi
ence.
Sunday evening Rev. G. E. Satterlee
preached a strong, telling sermon upon
the theme ''The Gospel in the Palm"
The convention closed with consecra-
ton service led by Pastor Roberts in
| which large number came forward
to seek power for better Christian SER
vice. Many testimonies were given.
The convention was success from the
start, it eliminated in an interest that
will be an inspiration in days to come
not only in the local churches, but in
those whose young people were in at
tendance.
Rev. Brisbin, OF Spencer Brook, was
IN attendance and had a part in the
program as was also Rev. Donovan
pastor of the Congregational church
who took part in the work of the con-
vention and by his kindly brotherly
spirit, won all hearts and added much
to the enjoyment of the occasion.
The Princeton League realized the
need of lecture room that might be
thrown open to the audience-room on
such occasions, as many people went
away for lack Of even standing room in
| the church.

Record of the Clubs,

Today's New York Herald has the fol-
lowing to say of yesterdays New York
Washington game:
'Of all the yellow games of base ball
that have ever been played, the one tie
Senators put up against the Giants yester-
day afternoon at the Polo grounds will take
rank among the yelowest.' A nine from
Prospect Park could have done just as we'll
or, rather. as poorly as the Senators did
They tried two pitchers, Baker and Dun
kle and they were marks. The way the
Giants banged their pet shoots was a sight.
Baker lasted two innings and Dunkle went
through the agony of the remaining seven.
But to ineffective pitching the Senators
added the most awful fielding. More awful,
indeed. than the score shows. owing to the
Hberalty of the leagues scoring rules.
Many a ball was driven at the Washington
infielders that they couldn't handle, and
therefore had to be scored as hits under the
rules. But clean infielders would have made
outs of them ALL
However. the Giants won the game by
the phenomenal score OF 10 to l, and indi-
vidualiy fattened their batting averages.
The game the Giants played. besides its ter
rife hitting features, was sharp and clean,
though there was room for improvement in
the base running. Coakey pitched, and
pitched well, and was given almost error
less support.
The first inning was uneventful. but in
the second the Giants touched Mr.. Baker
up for eight runs Smashing hits were
made by Gleason, O'Brien, CoakIey Doyle
and Grady. 1t was biff bang! smash!i, all
the time. Baker clipped in a base on balls.
Cassidy perpetrated the usual error, and
the game was one-sded in couple of min
utes. For the Giants, Grady, Gleason and
Hartman did some of the biff, bang.
smash., business in the fourth, and three
runs resulted. A couple of errors, a couple
of hits and Hartman's great line drive for
three bases over Slagle's head in center
sent in two runs in the fifth. and hot drives
by Van Haltren, Davis and Doyle landed
couple more in the sixth.
There was some more of the fierce hit
ting and little rank fielding in the ninth.
with the result of four additional runs for
the Giants.
The Senators made their solitary run in
the fourth, and ii came of the inevitable
base on balls With one out Hulen went
to first on balls. and, after Davis had taken
Freemans fly. so did Heydon. Then Dun
scored.
And when finally Gettman closed the
game with a weak rap to Davis the spec
tators wondered what could possibly be the
motive Of the Washington team In going
around the country masqueradng as ball
players.
The game. by the way. was the fourth
In the series, 50 that the Giants in winning
made it four straight.
