BATHS EASY WIN.
The Portiands Greatly Outplayed I'm
the Polo Game Last Evening.

The Portlands went to pieces In sad
style last evening and the Bath boys
won the polo game In easy fashion. The
game was the most uninteresting that
has been played in this city this season
and the cranks went away hoping they
would not again be Obliged to witness
such one sided affair. After the second
period, at the conclusion OF which the
score was tie, the locals seemed to
completely lose their heads ana allow the
Baths to do about at they pleased. The
visitors went after the game in the most
aggressive style in the third period and
during the rest OF the game Capt. Nc
Kay and his men were unable to get the
ball into the cage.
Portland started into play fast game
and made two goals right of the reel,
the players doing some great passing.
In the next period the Baths began TO
outplay the Portlands. Meade seemed to
be in trance and missed all opportuni-
ties that were offered him. After this
the game was devoid of all interest.
Burgess and Kenney did well, the form.
er's playing being q brilliant feature.

MODERN BIBLICAL CRITICISM.
70 the Editor Of the Press:

Not reverent, efficient, conscientious,
scholastic criticism of the Bible DO we de-
plors, but the indiscrlminate, irreverent,
unauthorized criticism OF some of our
nominal Christian pulpits. A practical
example best expresses our real intent
that of minister In a most responsible
position, who, in our hearing, announced
his text-one of the most significant and
sacred OF the Old Testament. and at once
affirmed that 1t was not true. This was
the base and apex OF the entire sermon.
1t was position, moreover, at once
disowned by some OF the most accom-
plished Hebrew scholars OF our time. Ii
Is such baselsss assumption under the
