Then, so quickly that Travis started

Joseph on being tunefully implored to
produce something new in the way of
a game, declared for did you ever see

blithely:
DID you ever see laddie, laddie, a

Did you ever see laddie do this way

BASE BALL At PHlLLlPSBURG.
L. A. C. Wins the Championship from the
High Bridge Team by the Score of 3 TO |.

/ For the first time in the history of
baseball, teams representing Lambert
Vile and High Bridge battled for SUI
premacy last Saturday, on neutral
field, and an umpire selected by the
Sporting Editor of the Inquirer had
charge of the "doings," thus prevent
ing any after lamentations or excuses
in case of victory or defeat by either
side.
While the game was clean, fast and
snappily played, the crowd that turned
ont was disappointment ms to size.
Lambertville did more than her share,
but the delegation brought by High
Bridge could not be noticed at all,
and the Phillipsburg and Easton sup
porters of the game. either did not APP
preciate the capabilities of the two
teams, or their intense dislike for the
North End management is too great
to be so soon forgotten. At any rate
the support indicates the end of cham
pionship games i'll Phillipsburg for the
rest of this year rs far as the l.. A. G.
is concerned.
The game was nerve trier," and
on several occasions the brilliant sup
port afforded the pitchers, prevented
scoring.
For five innings neither side could
advance man beyond the third cor
ner. In the sixth, however, the l.. A.
G. INDUCED i'll fielding slump and
before they could get together the
High Bridge team scored their only
run. Jakeman commenced the bad
work when he went after an intield hit
that Fish could have handled easily.
Then Eddie made nice stop
of All infield bounder, but threw wild
ly to first, and the damage was done.
The l.. A. c. did not get glimpse
of the rubber until the eighth, when
two passes, Allotted by two hits and
two errors chased two runners across
the plate. They got another in the
ninth Just to cinch matters. High
Bridge was easily disposed of in the
ninth.
The features of the game were the
invinoible pitching of Jakeman and
the fast infield work of Knight, Fish

Bridge, O'Mara and Lark carried off
the fielding honors.

installation of Air Brake Test Plant al
PhillIpsburg by the Pennsylvania
Railroad C0mDany.

William Boyd Page, master mechanic
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad Shops,
has had n large force of men under the
supervision Of w. Wayne Robinson at
work installing an air test plant on
what is known aa ''the grade, near
the Phillipsburg round house, during
the past few weeks, and it is now about
completed.
The various tracks throughout the
length and width of the yard have
been laid with air pipes, underneath
the railroad ties, and storage tanks
have been placed at intervals in the
main pipe line.
A new frame building has been erect
ed on the elevation baek Of the coaling
wharves, and the boiler from Loco, No.
1873, has been placed therein to furnish
the steam power for the plaintiffs is
one Of the locomotives that was so
badly damaged in the ice train wreck
that occurred just above Phllipsburg
last August.
This boiler has been fitted up as n
stationary boiler has been equipped
with a finch by 60 foot iron smoke
stack.
| An air compressor capable Of main
| tanning an average pressure Of seventy
pounds per square inch, has been placed
in the building.
This compressor will have to supply
air at this pressure for about 1000 feet
of piping, and there are Ga hose con
Meeting stations ON the "grade, when
cars standing on the tracks, awaiting
shipment, can be thoroughly tested
before being forwarded to destination.
This plant is made necessary on &C,
count OF the recent law compelling all
railroad companies to have fifty per
cent Of all cars in train, properly
equipped with air brake appliances in
good working condition.
A similar but not so extensiyea plant
has been installed in the coal part yards
at Trenton for the same purposes.
The features Of the Phillipsburg plant
are in the design Of the ash pit under
the boiler, the hot water we'll that re-
ceives the drainage of the water that
circulates around the jackets of the air
compressor and which is finally de
liyered to the boiler steam purposes
and the devices from removing the con
densed water from the air-pipe line
system.

the University Of Pennsylvania, drew
the working plans of the plant.

When Samuel Morse, foreman of the
Union Steam Fire Co. No. /, proposed
few months ago that the fremen
give silver trumpet to Chief Engi-
neer George W. Arnett, he was given
prompt encouragement and on We'd
nesday evening Of this week the pro-
ject was carried out. At eight o'clock
members of the different fire com
panies, headed by the drum corps,
marched to Mr.. Arnett's residence.
The chief met them at the door, and,
although very much surprised, soon
recovered enough to invite them in.
The crowd was large one but order
was soon restored, aud. on behalf of
the department, Charles NJ. Dilts pre-
sented the chief with the handsome
fire trumpet. Chief Arnett was taken
completely by surprise and for time
was unable to reply. Calming him
self, he thanked the fremen for the
token of regard presented and said
he priced it more than anything he
had ever received.
The visitors took possession of the
spacious porches and after cigars were
passed short speeches were made by
Burgess Daniel Oblinger, of New
Hope, John l.. Coryell, Walter F.
Hayhurst and Charles II. Skillman,
president of the Union. Ice cream
and other refreshments were served.
The members formed line headed by
Chief Arnett, and after cheers and
good wishes short parade was in
dulged in, Diminishing at the Union
House.
The trumpet is beautiful piece Of
work and is silver plated with gold
lining and bears the following inscrip-
ton "a token Of regard and appreci-
alton presented by firemen and friends
to George W. Arnett, Chief Engineer
of the Lambertville Fire Department
September 10, 1903" 1t was furnished
by Jeweler Joseph NJ. Lewis and is an
entirely new design.

Ramsey acted as though he was

the game, and it required the united
efforts of the "rooters" to bring him
back to earth again.
Leager is fair sort Of n catcher but
his grand stand "stunts" did not take
with the onlookers, even for n little
while. Cut it out "Gus," you know
better.
The fast work Of the l.. A. G. opened
the eyes Of those who had never seen
them perform before.
The hard hitters from High Bridge
got Just two little singles, and one Of
those was scratchy.
George Kline caught for the j.. A. G.
when they opened the season at the
North End ground three years ago,
Leager who WAS doing the receiving
for the North Ends, at that time had
lots of sport with Georges back stop
efforts. Last Saturday they were oppo-
nents again and this time Kline left
his man at the post, and made all the
running.
Jakeman was hit with a speedy in
shoot that nearly put his left arm ont
of business.
Ramsey pitched good game, but
then Jake pitches so much better.
Helverson had finger split while
stopping bad throw, but after hav-
ing it patched up, he resumed bust
ness.
Vinson played the right garden and
scored the first run for the l.. A. G.
The three doubles executed by the
l.. A. G. was as good piece OF fielding
as seen on the North End grounds
this season.
Gilbert had his batting eye and got
two nice singles.
Not one Of the l.. A. G. outfieders
had put out. Something unusual
and doesn't happen more than once in
season.
The "Pretzel Club" attended the
game. and it is said that it was their
smiling countenances that carried the
boys to victory.
