POLO NOTES.

The enthusiasts of polo are pleased
with the games that have been played In
Portland SO far this season. The locals
suffered their first defeat at home last
Thursday evening when the Baths proved
to be the strongest combination that
Capt Mckay and his men have had to
face this year.
Tuesday evening the Rocklands will
be at City hall and Thursday night the
Baths Will again play In Portland.
Campbell is the sams brilliant player
as of yore and his work this season excels
anything that he has done In the past.
Capt. Mckay says that he expects the
team to take a big brace and TO soon be
right up with the leaders.
Now that Frederigo Doe had added
strength to his team the Lswistons are
liable to make 1t warm for any club In
the league.
Billy Long, who is manager Of the
Rock lands, played on the first base ball
team that ever represented Portland In
the New England league. This was back
In 'S4, and Long used to look after the
position Of short stop and later OF sec ond
base. For several years he was one OF the
finest ball players In the minor leagues.
Manager Sullivan is wall satisfied with
the patronage In Portland thus far. The
other teams in the league are said to be
doing well. The game has evidently come
to stay this season.
Mr.. William II. Hickey, formerly oon-
nected with the jefferson theatre. is the
scorer of the Portland team. He is great
enthusiast on the game and was formerly
a star player.
