Wake up, Logan.

"slugger" Daniels struck out three
times
Delanco next Saturday, at the fair
ground.
Seeds struck out five of the six batters
in the third and fourth innings.
The umpire was master of the situation
His size and judgment command respect.
Delanco's new battery, Vinson and
Bachman, has made that club difficult
problem.
The Burlington club arrived so late
that only eight innings could be played on
account of darkness.
Bausewine's arm is still frst-class He
INDUCED in a little practice before the
game, and threw to bases in good shape.
Pitcher Mccain is a fast outfielder
Two of his catches in right field were re-
markable and cut off at least one run each
time,
The Burlington team put up a clean
game with the exception of Mike Tobin,
who seems incapable of playing anything
but dirty ball.
Tom Campbell is out of the game for
the balance of the season. He collided
with another player during game few
days ago, and broke his left wrist.
There is an old saying that st takes a
wise man to make a successful fool. .
Will Jacky Naylor please peep in the
looking glass and then report whether he
can claim either title?
First baseman Jarrett, of White Hill,
who had been on the bench since August
10 on account of an injured hand, reap
peared on the diamond on Saturday, and
played an excellent game.
Delanco will play here next Saturday
The team is at the foot.of the list, but they
play fine ball just the same. Maybe W,
can beat them, but in view of recen
events it is not safe to predict.

The game at the fair ground resulted in
the defeat of the Mount Holly club.
There is nothing strange about being de-
feated, for that has happened frequently
before, but to have the trick done by Bur
Ilington-t that's the rub.
The game opened with the visitors at
bat, and for few minutes there was one
of those rare exhibitions of flukey funks
which sometimes are witnessed on a ball
ground. The home team was in the air,
Before it had recovered its breath four
runs had been scored in that fatal first
half After that it was a fine game, but
the steadiness came too late-the mischief
had been done.
W. Black was the first batter. He
reached first on Logans muff OF hot line
fly. Dobbins singled and Carfrey drew a
base on balls, filling the bags. Daniels
singled, scoring Black and Dobbins and
advancing Carfrey to third. The latter
Tailed on wild pitch Wood was safe
on Seeds bad throw to Denness. Mccain
was out on fly to Kingdom, who returned
the ball to third to hold Wood on second.
Pancoast let the ball get away and Wood
reached third on the error. Tobin was
out to Dunn on fly to short left, and R.
Black famed the air The trouble was
over and all scoring ended.
Mount Holly had men on bases a num-
Der of times during the game, but the
necessary hit was not forthcoming.
The features of the game were two fine
catches by Mccain, Mount Holly's base
stealing, and Seeds pitching, striking out
twelve batters.

The game at Delanco was fast and
snappy. Both Vinson and Hesley pitched
in good form and were remarkably steady,
there being no bases on. balls, and only
three hits were registered by each club
Eynon made fine catch of difficult line
fly. Quigg and Church did excellent
work on second base. Delanco had no
show of scoring at any stage of the game,
as only three batters reached first and but
two men were left on bases.

For five weeks lived on cold water, so
to speak, writes man who suffered ter
ribly from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on his
stomach. What stayed wasn't properly
digested and gave him terrible pangs.
This is not an uncommon case. Dyspep-
tics don't get enough nourishment. They
are generally thin and weak.
They may eat enough, but they don't
digest enough. Much of what they eat
turns into poison. If this keeps on there's
no telling what disease they may get next.
That's why it is best to take Shaker
Digestive Cordial, as soon as symptoms of
indigestion appear.
1t cures all the evils of indigestion, and
prevents the evils which indigestion caus-
es. Sold by druggists, price 10 cents to
$1.00 per bottle.
