Owen Jackson caught Flanagan i'll

4 JUST DEFENCE.

The capable and reliable FrOstburg
correspondent of the Cumberland .Ne~s,
unable to hold himself any longer, wrote
to that paper last Saturday:
In to-days NcmS' baseball page a state
ment was made concerning the Homecoming
baseball team, and the writer inferred that
FroStburg had boycOtted the Homecoming
team. Nothing could be further from the
truth. The Frostburg management could
not play game III the early part of the
week owing to the fact that their new
pitcher did not arrive III time and several of
the players We're unable to play.
The Frostburg team has not, does not nor
will not boycott any team that will play
with them, nor does the Frostburg manage
ment refuse to make contracts with teams
playing any other team.
In all fairness to the Frostburg manage
ment and team this statement is made.
COMING Events
Two games due Monday next at the
New Park with Midland.
SorTm CUMBERLAND vs.. y. NJ
a record breaking game was played at
the Cumberland baseball park Wednes-
day, August 81 between the Young
Marylands of FrOstburg and the South
Cumberland Athletic Club.
So far as the county is concerned and
perhaps the State, it is the longest in
ming game ever witnessed on the
diamond-20 innings, the Y. NJ. Win
ning-3 to2.
james Tenant, of the Y. NJ. pitched
the entire game.
CAILoS vs.. \. NJ.
The Young Marylands and the Carlos
nine also played the shortest game on
record for the county at the Frostburg
baseball park Thursday, July 2S. Time
exactly sixty minutes.
Both games We're most remarkable.

FRosTGURG, Nh, Sept. |, 1904.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
Kindly allow me little space, to ask
Il question which | think is IA fair one.
Will the Labor committee tell me
whether it is fair to ask all merchants
aud other business houses to close their
places, and not ask the saloonkeepers to
close theirs on Labor Day?
| think, above all, the saloons OF the
town should be closed on that day
If not fair to ask saloons to close, too,
why should they be exempted from il
request that all should grant?
ask this question because fear that
the saloon is still the fly in labor's
ointment. A FROSTBURG WOMAN.
