game marked by heavy batting and loose

the Andover team. last season, was in

pitched well, he received the most miser-

Andover began scoring in the first in

single by Matthews and sacrifice hits by
Winslow and Stevens netted two runs.
Again in the fifth Lannigan scored by
pretty base running. In the sixth and
eighth innings the Colby team went to
pieces and Andover scored five runs.
Until the fourth inning not one of the
visitors saw first base, but in this inning
three singles scored a run. In the sixth

the seventh inning to allow Good Will to
catch the train. At that time the score

fielding was not very snappy, owing to

was of a better order Good VIII had no
trouble with either of the Oak Grove
pitchers. McDonald's work was the feat
ure of the game. He struck out eight
men and several of the hits made from
his delivery were due to the roughncss of

himself on first base by good steady work

The University Men Have a Walkover with
Lighter but Husiiing Team.

Bangor. April 29.-(Special)-The
first ball game of the season to be
played by either the University Of
Maine team or the Coburn Classical
Institute team of Watervilc took place.
Saturday afternoon at Orono. The day
was most unsuitable for ball playing;
a high wind blowing all the afternoon.
and it was so cold that n winter over
coat was as comfortable as on any day
in January. The game was unintereSt-
ing and resulted in Walk-oVer for the
Orono boys by 4 score of 20 to 4. The
Watervillc team made all its runs in
the first inning.
Errors We're frequently made by the
players on both teams. Harris started
in to pitch for the Orono team and
gave way in the second inning to Ross,
who occupied the box until the opening
of the sixth, when Cushman, the old
reliable" took his place. Ross had
barrels of speed but not much con-
troll. On the other hand Cushman sur
prised his friends by the wonderful
work which he was able to do so early
IN the season. He had the speed Of 4
cannon ball. and with the exception of
one inning, when he gave two bases on
palis, he had excellent control.

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
Alaska and appropriations in Senate Mica
ragua Canal in The House.

Washington, April ESQ far as can
now be foretold, the week in the Sen
ate will be given up largely to the
Alaska code bill and to appropriation
bills. Senator Hawlcy. chairman Of
the committee on military affairs has
given notice that he will cali up the
army appropriation bill Monday, and
when this bill is disposed Of it is
probable that the fertilization bills
will be taken up. There will be an
effort to secure final disposition Of the
Alaskan bill but as there is almost as
much opposition to the Carter amend
ment as there was To the amendment
suggested by Senator Hansbrough. it
is impossible to say whe Their the effort
will succeed Senator Chandler.
Wednesday. will ask consideration Of
the resolution in the case Of Senator
Clark Of Montana. but there will be
request for more time to read the tes-
timony and the case probably will go
over at least several days.
on Thursday. the Senate will listen
to euloges on the late Representative
Baird Of Louisiana.
The feature Of the week in the House
will be the Nicaragua canal bill which
will be continued. Tuesday and
Wednesday. Tho elimination of the
section relative to the fortifcation of
the canal removed the objections en-
tertained to it by the friends Of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty, but because Of
that very fact the resentment Of some
of the Democrats has been aroused.
The bill. however. doubtless. will COM
mand a very large majority when it
comes to 4 vote. Thursday will be
given UP to the consideration Of the
free homes bill and Friday to war
claims. Tomorrow will be District Of
Columbia day.

the fact that during the last ten days
we have gained very little from our
enormous display of force"
Without doubt these operations have
