Communication.

The communication in Friday morn
ings paper relative to the postpone
ment of the Journal-V ickery game
scheduled for this afternoon has been
duly noted. In reply will say that
While not denying the fact that we
very much desired not to play Satur-
day night for reasons previously
stated, we are. under the circumstances
forced to play this game. but not with
out protest
Possibly the VickeryS have very
pOor memory and for that reason have
entirely forgotten the fact that for
several weeks they did not follow out
the schedule as originally drawn up.
and We're excused from playing for va
ricus reasons both good and bad. Now
shoul', it come to a question of for
feits. (under the rule the V. & II. man.
agemcnt takes issue upon). it will be
seen that the Nickerys would he the
greater loser of the two.
The Journal team has. since its or
eanizalion. worked for the best inter-
ests Of the league and now while not
asking for any favors, it would at
least like common courtesy and fair
play.
AS to the accusations against the
Journals of being arbitrary. etc" will
say that if it had not been for the
Journals there would not have been 8
Printers league this season. They
were the prime movers and have kept
up the spirit of the league to the pres
ent time. We shall do nothing Nhat
will merit the title of ''quitters." and
although our team will be somewhat
weak. we will play the Vickerys ac-
cOrdinS to schedule.

Selling Cider and Discharged.

Edward Lyon of Manchester was be
fore the police court yesterday charg-
cd with violating the statutes III re-
gard to the sale of cider. The COM
plant was made by George A. Lilly of
the same place.
As result of the complaint Deputy
Sheriffs ]. +. Bean and II. r. Morse.
Thursday evening. went to Lyons
place and seized one gallon Of cider.
This occupied a conspicuous place at
the left of the judges desk during the
trial.
Arson NJ. Goddard appeared for tho
defence and the States case was in the
hands of County Attorney Thomas
Leigh. From the evidence introduced
il appeared that Lyon had only sold
cider by the gallon not to be used on
the premises. which Judge Andrews
ruled not to be within the limits of the
statute. Mr.. Leigh stated that from
the testimony he could not ask the
court to fine the prisoner or to hold
him for higher tribunal. He was
consequently discharged.

JOURNALS VS.. vlCKERYS.
The Game This Afternoon Will Decide Cham
pionship.- Both Determined TO Win.

tn. Journals and the Nickerys are
to meet on the diamond this afternoon
tor the final game OF the season be
tween these two teams. The result OF
this game will decide the champion
snip among the printers of Augusta
and in consequence the two teams are
determined to do their best. No adj
vantage will be lost by either side.
Both are out for blood and determined
10 win.
Ii WAS hoped to postpone the game
for one week in order to give one OF
the teams fair show, a courtesy al
ready extended to the other teams of
the league, but this was not the wish
of the remaining teams and the two
teams will come together with blood in
their eyes.
The lineup of the two teams is not
yet decided but will probably be about
the same as in past games. The bat
teries will be Flynt and Bolger for the
Journals and Parquette and Bush for
the NickeryS.

A GOOD UMPIRE.
Augusta Doesn't Believe ConnoIIey Deserves
the Baltimore Abuse.

1T doe Snt speak very well for the
condition OF base ball in Baltimore

protect man like Tom Connolley
from a bowling mob of patrons" re-
marked a local base ball enthusiast
yesterday. Il have seen a great many
umpires work" he added. but have yet
to see his superior. In the old days Of
the New England League team in this
city his work was always to M. one of
the features of the game. We always
knew that when he was handling the
indicator On our own or other grounds,
our boys would get all that was com
ing to them. He was prompt, fearless,
and wonderfully accurate in his deCis-
ions. | have never seen man who
surpassed him in the difficult task of
calling balls ana strikes. He was de
serVedly popular in every city in the
League.
Il well remember the first game he
ever umpired for Augusta. 1t was on
the Farmingdale grounds. and our OPP
ponents were the cha NIPPON Fall RiV-
ers. Ezra Lincoln was in the box for
the visitors and for eight innings he
mad our boys guessing. and Fail River
had a very comfortable lead. In the
last half of tie ninth, however, the
Augustus developed one of those IA
nous batting streaks for which our
old team was famous The way they
pounded Lincoln was Il caution. The
climax came when. with two men out
one on bases and two scores needed to
tie.
"Joe Conner knocked home run
The crowd went fairly wild with en-
thusiasm. Unfortunately. however IN
coming home Common cut third base.
Connolley promptly called him out and
a game. which Augusta had as good as
won went to FAN River. We needed it
badly and Of course the crowd was
sore. | remember well how they start
cd in to roast the umpire on the Elec-
trio car on the return home.
"Connollcy turned TO the editor or
the Journal. a director of the Augusta
team and asked:
What do you thing of that de-
cision?'
I'm sorry you had to occasion TO
make it, but it was entirely correct
was the reply.
