Havre de Grace Defeats Appleton.

An interesting and well-played game of
base ball was that at Havre de Grace, on
Saturday, between the club of that place,
and the Appleton team of this county. 1t
was anybody's game up to the eighth inn
ing, when the home team made five of their
hits, including home run and two
Dagger, scoring four runs and clnched their
victory. 1t was game replete with bril-
liant bits of fielding, in which Kelly Of the
Appletons carried off the honors, his work
in left being exceptionally fine. There
were also many fine stops and throws made
by the intielders Of both teams. Hand for
Havre de Grace particularly distinguished
himself by his fast work at third, accepting
eleven in twelve chances. The score

FOOTBALL. NOTES.

Maryland boy who has achieved a reputa-
ton on the gridiron, the son Of promi-
nent family, will, like Johnnie Poe, see
service in the United States Army in the
Philippines. He is John G.. Constable, Of
Elkton, who has just been appointed a
first lieutenant in the Forty. sixth Regiment
of Volunteers. Lieutenant Constable went
South with the First Regiment last year,
and was rapidly advanced to lieutenancy.
He made very creditable record, which,
it is believed, influenced President Nc
Kinley and Secretary Root to appoint him
to commission.
Lieutenant Constable, better known as
Jack played on the Baltimore City Col
lege football teams in 1895 and 1896 and
went South with those teams TO Ports
mouth, Hampton and Fortress Monroe,
where both elevens made such a fine show
ing.
Constable captained and coached the
City College teams at different times.
Though of an apparently delicate constitu-
tion, he was one Of the headiest and grit
tiest ever seen in this city or State, and
when the City College and other teams of
which he was member practiced at Druid
Hill Park, he was the idol OF the small
boys.
Before playing on the City College
team he organized an eleven at Elkton,
his home, which was one of the best in the
State. With good, sturdy material, chiefly
novices, he turned out team Of scientific
players.
after leaving Baltimore Constable went
to Bridgeton, N j., where he was employ
ed by an iron construction company, at

the following to say about recent moon

peacefully in the lap of her swain, while
he poured into her ear "the sweetest story

believed him. The comments and coca

them not and when the search light was
turned in their direction they retained
their position as composedly as though they
were far "irom the haunts Of men," with
only the faint beams Of the pale moon to
illuminate their love. Oblivious of criti-
cism their love was self-satisfying and
complete.

A Big Busy Store.

1t is matter of great surprise to
people who have not lately visited the
big department store Of the w. F.
White Hardware company, the amountof
business which is each day transasted
there.
Glancing into the store almost at any
hour of the day the clercical force is
always on the rush. Every one doiog
work in the store seems to have a little
moro than they can do. This has not
continued just through this present
busy season, bnt it is an every day oc-
currence.
Shelving has bsen extended to the
ceilings on both sides Of the big main
store for tho accommodation Of increased
stocks and these are so high and crowd
ed that system OF ladder railways now
extend around the store SO that the
shelving comes into instant use.
The force OF clerks has been much
increased and work runs along smooth
ly everywhere in the big store of the
city. All the time OF Manager and
President w. F. White is now taken in
looking after the purchase OF stock to
keep their big lines full and up to stan
dard.
Without any doubt whatever it is the
largest general store of ite kind on the
western slope. Goods have got to be
kept on the move in this establishment,
hence prices are made to move them.
1t really does look with SO many va
rieties OF goods under one roof, where
the cost of handling them is down to
minimum basis that, they could be sold
more cheaply than elsewhere.
Their holiday rush this week is the
biggest in their history, owing to low
prices and the Cash System. 1t does
seem that every one wanting an up to
date substantial Christmas present is
not satisfied until they visit Whites De-
partment Store, where every wish can
be gratitied.

ent time there are very few deeply

"FANTASMA" FIZZLE.
Entertai nment at the Park Opera
House Last Night Proved
Successful Failure.

The entertainment at the Park opera
house last night was far beyond what
tho people had anticipatsd-but not in
excellence. The house was we'll filled by
a representative body Of citizens, who
had been promised and expected first
class cater rtainment but the aggregation
Of Advertising numbers, which was pre-
sented, was SO weak and poorly arranged
that despite the efforts Of the janitor
and liberal use of coal, chill settled
upon the house and manifeeted itself in
the applause (?) which greeted the var
ious numbers.
From start to finish it was plain to be
seen that the fault was 10 the manage
ment, a fact which was made apparent
even before the opening number OF the
program had been presented, in little
speech in which the manager OF the
affair apologized to the audience for
some changes which 1t would be neces-
sary to make in the program "because
some of the girls did not know that this
was the night they were to appear"
There is vast army of persons who
travel over the country, stopping in
towa only long enough to get in their
work, which they usually do under the
auspices OF some local organization,
which insures the support OF certain
portions of the citizens who are directly
interested.
In this, as in every other town, there
is always an opening for some CRATER
and there are merchants who are ever
ready to assist in helping them to live
without labor, seeing perchance an op-
portunity whereby they may advertise
their wares, and anxious to assist char
liable organization, and they usually take
their medicine without much ado, but the
success OF the fellow who comes next
can be imagined whom these merchants
and societies have been treated to an
overdose.
The Sentinel is not laughing; it has
no laugh coming; 1t is always ready to
assist any worthy cause but ii does not
believe in and will not quietly see some
stranger come into the city and by mis-
representation reap profit from other
peoples labor, without protesting
against it.
There were some redesming features
however, to last nights entertainment.
In the parts where the firms arranged
their own representation the effects were
pleasing to tho audience. All such were
appreciated. All the ladies did their
best, undoubtedly, but there was an i'm
preston that too little time was allowed
them for rehearsal.
The Phantasmagorica Kaleidoscope
march, led by Miss Nordelle McLain,
representing Roberts, the Jeweler, and
Miss Claire Thompson, representing the

very good, and the tableau at the con-
clusion deserves mention as a most
beautiful scene.
