On account of not having sufficient
room the throwing of the hammer
was taken off the program and as there
was no person ready with tools for
the hand drilling contest it was also
dispensed with and other sports put IN
their place.
At ! O'Clock sharp Bonette made
another successful balloon ascension.

Barre kilograms and st. Adams.
The races were interesting. Rugg
& Campbell had A. H. Merrill engag-
ed for starter and it was a disappoint-
ment to them, although no fault of
theirs, his not appearing, but the

when DR.. ID. j. Smith otficiated, and

The baseball game between thu
Barre kilograms ana a picked team
from St. Adams started at about
g. 30 and lasted till 6 O'Clock beips
very slow, and during the last half
decidedly uninteresting. The st. AL
bans team played very good bal
throughout. Barre played we'll til
Oatley called a pickup by the st. Al
bans center fielder a caught fly, ant
then they got mad and played rank
ball. Vosburg pitched good stead,
ball for st. Adams, although he was
little wild ct first. Doyle also pitched
a good game for the kilograms, bul
his support was practically minus at
ter the fifth inning. Buchanan
caught splendid ball for Barre, ant
McLane on first base and Morse or
third played a very good game, but
the ielders, especially Thayer, put VI
rocky game, and Dombriskie ant
Petrie made some bad errors, especial
ly the former. Following is III,
makeup of the two mines and the scor'
by innings We have not space
enough to spare to put in a list of the
ST. Adams: Hubert, 1st; Vosburg
p; Pell, catch; Willett, S. S.; Mossey,
c. t.; Ingrahm, 3d.; Coleman, r. +.
