The first shipment of blueberries was

is said, promises to be a good one.
In most parts of the county the
cherry crop is reported an utter failure.
This is due to the severe frost in the
early part Of the spring. The wild
straw berry was scarce this year.
On account of the wet weather very
little hay has as yet been cut. Not
withstanding the extremely poor pros
pect in the spring, the crop this year.
by reason of the great rainfall, will be
excellent. Roots and grain are also
doing well.
Chesley Smith of Hopewell has an
exceptionally fine field of wheat that
is much admired. The grain has a uni
form height of five feet, and is partic-
ularly promising. Grain crops general

RACE TALK is HOT.
Moynihan and Moran Only Wait an op-
portunltY to Get Together.

The talk of a match race for a half
mile between Jere ]. Moynihan, the
speedy Holy Cross man, and William
M. Moran of the high school team, is
likely to result in race that will equal
the famous Mclaughlin Delaney match
of few years ago. Both men have a
great many admirers who resent the
newspaper talk which says that one
man is afraid to race the other, and
last evening friends of Moynihan who
have taken exceptions to the statements
that were purported to come from
Thomas Kenney, the trainer of Moran,
met Kenney at his place of business
and offered to bet all kinds of money
that Moynihan could trim young Moran
at the half or any other distance.
MIR. Kenney was not prepared to bet
at the time, and so stated. He desired
another meeting at The Spy office We'd
nesday evening, when the matter can
pc discussed and arrangements made
for the match. He had no intention of
betting himself, but knew of a third
party who was willing to back his opin-
ion that Moran could beat Moynihan
for half mile, to the extentS of $3.50
The Moynihan adherents wanted to
place the money at the time and await
the making of a match but Kenney did
not care to do that
Moynihan, who is under the care of
Martin A. Delaney, is going along in
old-time form, and feels confident of
his ability to trim Moran at any dis
lance that the latter would care to
run. Ills friends are also confident and
wish to make the race as soon as pos
slble, and will accommodate the
friends of Moran with all the money
they want to bet Ever since the races
at the st. Augustine games, when Moy-
n1han beat out Moran at his favorite
distance, the half-mile, there has been
considerable talk by the friends of both
parties.
1t will undoubtedly result in a race,
If the men can get club that will run
an athletic meet
The only place where the men can
get at each other is at the diocesan field
day at Westfield Labor day, but both
are so hot after the race that it is like
ly to be pulled off before that time.
should any of the local clubs conduct a
meet. There was some talk Of having
the st. Pauls and the st. Annes hold a
dual meet at the oval and bring the
men together there, which was met
with universal satisfaction by the
members of both organizations. An
other attraction that would prove
good drawing card, should any of the
clubs hold meet, would be the match
race proposed between C. i. Kiley of
Boston college and Charles J. O'Connor
of the Holy Cross team. The defunct
Worcester Athletic Club, which Frank
H. Bigelow talked of bringing to life
again, could not wish for a better req
son for getting into the business and
conducting a meet here.

BEATEN OUT.
Old Jimmy No Match for
Eddie G.
Bald.

New York, July 30.-The one mile match
race between Arthur A. Zimmerman and
Eddie C. Bald was the chief event today
at Vailsburg, N. ]. The regular Sunday
crowd had been swelled by a couple of
thousand enthusiastic Jerseyites and
others in anticipation of great work. The
match was for a guaranteed purse" of
$1,000 and a percentage of the gate receipts.
The Jerseyman had the best of the start,
but the Buffalo boy went right up to him
in second, and for three laps out of the
four constituting the mile within more
than the width of a tape line between
iEddie's leading wheel and Zimmy's hind
one. This trail was kept up until half the
fourth lap had been finished, when he shot
ahead. Zimmerman was either unable or
unwilling to make a squirt. Bald at once
put spans between them. and finished four
yards ahead in minutes 10 seconds.
