ORANGE LEFT THE FIELD.
Was in the Ninth and Hospital Team Gave
Promise OF a Brilliant Finish.

Was in the Ninth and Hospital Team Gave
Promise OF a Brilliant Finish.
Nine confident ball players wearing
the colors of the Orange A. c., wandered
away from their haunt, the well known
Oval, to the bailiwick of nine other ball
tossels at Morris Plains, Wednesday
afternoon Now this aggregation of
team, have just as much confidence in
their ability to play winning ball as have
the boys from Orange or any other
place. And the visitors were reminded
throughout the game that the Hospital
boys had something beside confidence.
They tagged the ball hard and often,
ran bases well and showed that Orange
could not teach them "whole lot F."
about the game.
Fully 700 persons witnessed the con-
test, and while both teams fielded loese-
ly, still the contest was made interesting
by hard hitting and consequential
frequent scoring. Faulkner pitched
steadily at critical stages during the con-
test and he had perfect support by
Connolly
The umpiripg of Nash was the cause
of numerous ''kicks" which did not al
ways originate with the visiting team.
He doubtless erred in his Judgment of
balls and strikes, but the home team
suffered as we'll % the visitors. Doran's
decisions on bases were not questioned
until the last half of the ninth when he
called a man safe, who was apparently
out at see ond base. AS result of this
decision the visitors left the field and re-
fused 10 continue the game, which the
umpire awarded to the State Hospitsl
team, 8 TO 0.
When Orange refused to play the score
was 16 to Is in their favor, the home
team having just added run. No one
was out and two men were on bases.
which gave promise of brilliant and
successful finish for the home team.
Whether Orange was of this opinion or
not, was not known, but it YVES very
opportune time TO quit"
1t is said the Hospital team will play
at the Orange Oval some time in July.

EDITOR Cs aoNIcLE:

find in the Tribune of the 10Th inst,
the following: The proprietors of candy
stores, barber shops and ice cream sa-
looms of Elizabeth were dismayed at
receiving notice from the Chief of Police
that they must close on Sunday. If such
an order is good for Elizabeth, why
would it not be good for Morristown.
If there is town where (for the size of
it) the Sunday closing laws are more
abused than here in our own beautiful
Morristown, would like to know of it.
There is common report that the pro-
prietor of candy and fruit store has
said that the profits of his Sunday trade
more than pays his weekly expenses.
If this is true, it shows to what extent
Sunday trade amounts to in this line of
business. What proportion of this is
contributed by Sunday School children
is no small amount. Many dollars in

Societies never reach their intended des-
tination, but are divert; 1 to the pockets
of the Sabbath breaker at home, and
yet our police patrol up and down the
streets, apparently oblivious that Sab
bath laws are broken. | notice in your

of Aldermen, in which emphasis is Sven
to an ordinance drawn and presented by
Alderman Lines, providing for the Sun
day closing of stores after $50 a. M,
but as there was State law covering
the oint, Mayor Quayle declined to
entertain it. Now, in the name of all
that is fair, just and right, if such be
the case, why is it not enforced? What
are our officials for. if not to see that all
laws regarding the good of the town are
not enforced? You may call Alderman
Lines eccentric, or even crazy if you
wish, but for one l admire the stand he
has taken on this subject, and think
he should have the moral support of the
community. He certainly has stiff back

Tuesday night:
''Mr. Kipling has, on the whole, not
gained during the day, though the respt-
