LoNACONING VS.. FRosTBURG.

LONACONING vs.. FROSTBuRG.
Tom Smith, of Lohaconing, with u
good team at his heels. made things warm
for Dillon's club at the Driving Park
last Saturday and pleasant for the spec
tatOrs.
But Keno writes that
Smith was up against the real thing" as
the Frostburg boys played well all round.
Old Fred" Entler, now considered at
Midland IA haS-been," was on the war path
so vigorously the slab would hardly hold
him, and the visitors could hardly place
their imprint on any corner of his work.
In fact Entler's balls were too quizzical for
Homecoming eyegight, and his support was
great. Entler not only pitched handsomely
but when at the bat bif1ed Patterson's de-
livery often and hard.
Then Tom Jackson. silent as of yore,
kept the screen from punCture and the
grand stand from being knocked over.
His hitting went far also toward winning the
game.
Jim and Owen Jackson and Gerlach did
some good work, while Taylor. Davis and
the brothers Gunnctt did the in-field in
generally excellent style.
For the rooters Patterson, the handsome
little twirler, played good game, and up to
the eighth inning it looked like he would
win With the score to 3 in his favor it
seemed all over but the shouting However,
the boys here are always in the game to the
finish. \ few errors behind Patterson, to-
gethcr with hits by Tom Jackson and Entler,
and the game was won, making a victory
out of what looked like sure defeat
The Midland contingent-Stakem, Will
liams and the Burns brothers, who played
with Homecoming put up pretty good article
of ball, though they failed to hit Entler with
any great effect.
Ernest Laymau, of Carlos, umpired and
gave general satisfaction. His decisions
were given quickly, accurate and impartially.

SUNRISE on DNN'S Rock.

SUNRISE on DAMS Rock.
Oriyi"M.
BY HARRIET J. COOLEY, of KcKccsport, Pa.
Twas a bright and glorious morning,
Way up on the mountain high;
We on Dams Rock stood watching
The sunrise in the sky.
The morning was clear and ideal
Not a cloud could there be seem
While just beyond lay the valley,
SO peaceful and serene.
We Toasted our eyes on the beauties
OF Sunrise on Dams Rock =
We watch Il him growing brighter
Till no longer could we look.
As higher he climb'd in the heavens,
Brighter grew the scene below
Until all along the Potomac
All Nature seem'd aglow.
We cimb'd DER the rocks delighted,
And amazed at the beautiful scene
Fearing, here, lest we fall DER their edges
Fearing, there, lest we fall down between.
As the sun climh'd high and grew brighter
The day grew very hot;
So we left the scene of the valley
To find Shadier spot.
We spent all day on the mountain
We ramblcd and frolcked and sang,
Giving vent to our happy spirits
Till Dams Rock with our echoes rang.
We gathered the ripe hucklebcrrics,
And fern from the lcafy dell:
Even rode the horses to water,
And-O, didn't we ride well ?l
Though the sun on the rocks shone brightly,
Yet the valley beyond was so fair
That we often would wander upon them
To again view the scene so rare
Then, again, we would leave the sunshine
And seek the refreshing shade
We ramblcd and frolickcd as ever:
We sang and laughed and played.
We ate breakfast and dinner and supper
BY the Rocks broad. wide base
The girls spreading out the table,
While all the boys made great haste
TO secure places around it
And partakc of the good things there =
They ''dived right in, as the phrase goes
And to etiquette gave not Il care.
Then just ~ the sun was sinking
Ger the mountains in the west,
We said goodbye" to dear old Dams Rock
And went home for IL needed rest.
We hitched up the willing horses;
In the rigs we piled, one and all;
The way down the mountain grew chilly
As the dew began to fall.
And shall we forget that ride homeward-
How we joked and sang songs all the while
Till the air with our echoes was ringing,
As we rode on, mile after mile?
Then, at last, we all landed safely
At home with shout of joy
For the girls were all very weary,
And so tired was every boy.
Still of that glad day we are thinking
OF its pleasures could ever talk
And we'd 20 to the mountains tomorrow
TO see the Sunrise on Dams Rock"
