day evening last was much enjoyed by an au
dience that filled the church to its utmost ca
pacity. A recitation entitled 1.-THE Power o.
Prayer" by little Miss Marguerite Armstrong
of Baltimore, elected much praise. All who
took part acquitted themselves admirably ano
they deserve much praise. Miss Wolf sang q
solo, Miss Lula Kratz and Mr.. Henry Snictkel

cellent music. The pastor, Rev. Mr.. Lehman,
made an interesting address on mission work.

On Saturday, August 9Th, the Long Green
baseball team played two games and were vic
LOTlOuS III DOIn Inc HrSb VIII a team ITOIu
Baltimore, score to 4, and the second was
with the Taylor A. c., of Hartford county. In
the latter game at the end of the first half of
the seventh inning the score stood - to II in
favor of the Taylors, but they refused to play
the remainder of the game, or to give the Long
Greens their bat to finish the inning, not
withstanding the fact that the Long Greens
pleaded hard with them to finish, and in con-
sequence forfeited the game. The Long Green
boys have been spoiled by playing easy teams
and in consequence let the Taylors make II
runs in the first inning before they settled
down to work. After that they allowed the
Taylors to score but runs while they bunch
ed up IL runs and were shut out but once.
The way they ran bases and fielded brought
joy to their rooters' hearts, for not single err
ror was made in their fielding. If Manager
Crilley keeps his Saturdays bunch together
and Captain Kane continues his role of Jen-
nings, even better results will be attained. M.
