SEA CAPTAINS PLAYED BALL.
ANOTHER GAME ON FOR TO-DAY

The sea captains who are now in
port. and there is an unusually clever
set, arranged base ball game yesfer-
DAY afternoon at the fair grounds. 1t
was interesting in the extreme. With
two picked sides the mast crs fought
hard for victory. and during the en-
tire nine innings the game was one
which caused the spectators to have a
pain from laughter.
The feature Of the game probably
was the heavy hitting and fast run
ming of Hon. Il. Fl. Mason, who was
signed 10y one Of the sides for the game
! he tieIders played near the third base
bag, ard had bit little to do. Attha
end Of the game and up to late hour
last night, the scorer had not finished
making up his records, therefore if, js
not known who won.
The captains have decided to play
again this afternoon, and those who
attend are promised a comedy Of the
most laughable variety.

The petition of the Brunswick &

|spectfully shows:
l. That it desires and requests an
extension of time within which i'm
proyements can be made on the tracts
OF land leased to it by you on De-
cember 20, 1900.
You are aware of some of the riff
cultieS that have been encountered
by the management of the road dur
ing the past few months. 1t has re-
quired almost the entire time and
attention of the new management
as well as the expenditure of much
money, to get the affairs of the com.
pany in proper shae. These efforts
and this expenditure of money have
redounded to the benefit of Bruins
wick, and the officers of the company
are confident that the most of you
fully appreciate what has been accom-.
plishhed by US.
3. For the reasons stated it ha,
been practically impossible to take
up and complete the matter of i'm
proWements on the waterfront proper-
ty and the cotton factory site. How
ever We have now Reached the con-
sideration of thi smatter and will say
that it is our purpose to make the
improvements, not only because it is
one of the conditions of the lease,
but because it is necessary for our
business interests. We would appre-
clate your giving US a further extern
sion of nine months in which to
make the improvements, and / will
state that the cost of improvements
will be considerably greater than the
amount named in the lease. While
the present management have only
been connected with the road for a
short time, We are fully informed as
to the very generous support given
the enterprise by you, as well as by
the citizens of Brunswick generally,
and fully appreciate your attitude.
1t is our purpose to develop and
build up this property, and to COOP
erate with yomr citizens in other
ways in building up your city.
