EASY FOR ROCKVILLE.
The Alexandria Ball Team No Match
for the Marylanders.

The Rockville and Alexandria baseball
clubs played their first game at National
Park yesterday afternoon. Being neutral
grounds neither team had a monopoly of
the outside influence. Therefore the game
was strictly on Its merits. and good plays
from either side were generously applaud
ed. The Rockville boys are playing con-
servative game of ball and are strong at
the bat In recent game with the strong
Eastern Athletic team. they gave those
artists very warm argument.
The Alexandria team did not prove
formidable opponents, but gave promise
of better things. With more practice and
team work they ought to be strong club
In yesterdays game they were simply
slaughtered. Burdett, their pitcher, had
poor control and the Rockvillians tatted
him at will, making fifteen hits off his de
livery.

The freshmen substitutes were IL their

gathered all the crew around him and gave
them a short talk. He said that he wouldn't
expect them to learn as much from his talk
as from observing him at work, so he told
all hands to watch him while he stroked
the varsity four Then he rowed the crew
down the river with the varsity eight on
one side. the freshmen eight on the other
and the substitutes following in his wake
In this order the crews rowed down the
river a distance of four miles by easy
stages, Hanlon stopping them at times TO
demonstrate and explain some feature of
his stroke. This is radical change and
almost complete opposite of all that the
men have heretofore learned, and this

MORMONs in Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois are mad because Governor
Nash of Ohio refused protection

for Bryan in November. Every
thing counts in politics.
