BASE BALL.

The Bel Air Base Ball Club and a team
of soldiers from Camp Saunders played
game on Thursday afternoon of last
week. The soldiers had secured the
services of Taylor of Annapolis, left
handler who held the Naval Cadets down
to 8 hits, consequently the rooters from
the Camp were in good numbers, and the
game started off with great enthusiasm
For innings Taylor pitched good ball,
but in the Sd the Bel Air team solved his
curves and drove him out of the box, he
being replaced by Sweet, whose delivery
was so easy for the sluggers of the Bel
Air team that in an inning or two the
game was so one sided as to lose interest
The playing of Hanway at short for Bel
Air was remarkable, he having Is chances
all of which he accepted without an error
Two innings of the game he retired the
side unassisted. Dowlings pitching was
a bright feature. his curves being SO de-
ceptive the soldiers were completely at
his mercy. Ten batters struck out and
most of them when bases were full. His
control was superb. The umpire was
Lieut.. Smith of Company H. Score, Bel
Air l 1, Soldiers 1.
Fridays game between Havre de Grace
and Bel Air brought out the crowd ofthe
season, a conservative estimate being
800 spectators. Both teams showed fast
work in practice and with the first ball
pitched Havre de Grace started in to
play the game, all the fine points being
worked. Richardson who pitched for
Bel Air had an off day, the result being 6
runs the first inning for Havre de Grace
on safe drives and loose fielding of the
home team. Bel Air could not score
until the sixth inning. Havre de Grace
had no trouble in scoring in most of the
innings. Every man on the team made
two or more runs. Score, Havre de
Grace 10, Bel Air +.
The game here tomorrow, Saturday,
between the Bel Air and Fallston teams
promises to be of unusual interest and
large number of persons are expected to
be present

AhOat,

Taking the factory to the raw ma
terial instead of bringing the material
to the factory, is an innovation Just
put in operation on the Mississippi
River by a button factory, and it is a
plan that has many practical advan-
tages. This factory is boat forty
two feet long and twelve feet wide,
with all of the necessary machinery
for the manufacture of buttons, and
provided with three-horse power en-
glne for its work. The principal ma
terial used by this factory is mussel
shells, which are found at nearly all
points along the river. and one of the
great expenses in conducting the busi-
ness heretofore has been the cost Of
transporting the shells Now the fac
tory has reversed the operation and
will go to the mussels When q bed
of the shells Is found the boat will drop
anchor and go to work. When the bed
Is exhausted it will go on to a new To-
cation In this fashion it will go from
State to State, from Minnesota to
Louisiana. passing along with the sea
sons. On the boat the workmen have
their home with all its comforts, with
freedom from land rent and the visits
of tax collectors.
