WESTERNPORT vs.. FRoSTBURG.

Zone of the greatest games ever played

tween "Our Own" and the High.
landers.'
1t was contest that brought out the
full playing strength of both teams, in
dividually and collectively.
For II innings both teams strained
their utmost to get man across to
home-plate.
just one tally would win.
The playing of both clubs was SO per-
feet that the one run was not forthcoming.
Brown did the twirling for "Our
Own and he was implacably deter
mined to allow his antagonists no adj
vantage whatever.
Owen jackson caught model game
behind the bat.
George Gunnett was his old time self
on first. Besides, his nicely placed hit
won the game i'll the 18th.
Capt. DIN Gunnett played second,
and though the position was new one
to him he filled it i'll mastery style. He
figured in three fast doube-plays that
were hair -raisers.
Tom Stakem played third in SINH
lar manner, and the way he leveled them
over to first was certainly IA feature.
Frank Spates at short was everywhere
and covered lots of ground at every
stage. He put lot of ginger in the
contest and kept everyone on the jump.
Will. Spates' running catch in deep
right field was sensational.
For the "Highlanders' Jackson was
the slab-artist and he is good one. and
his catcher, Daley, is fortress behind
the bat Besides, his throwing arm was
in evidence during the entire game.
Dan Raley on first, Westlake on
second, Charles on third, and Buriss at
short, made the very fastest kind of an
ln-field.
Ross Raley, Duggan and Parsons
played the ut-tield, and Duggan's two
running catches in far left were fine
performances.
The umpire, Cook Howard, was the
very best seen this or any other season
any place. He was 'all to the good.
Not once during the entire contest was
a decision questioned. The II innings
were played without wrangle of any
kind or degree.

The Kindergarten.

The JOURNAL spent an hour rs the
guest of the kindergarten school Tues
day, although the little ones, eugrossed
in their exercises, seemed oblivious of
all oversight by visitors.
After only nine or ten days direction
the children do wonderful work. They
take to systematic play'-which is
play with trend to utility, like ducks
take to water" The drills, use of tools
and manipulation of materials-all af-
ford exercise which cannot possibly fail
to develop skillful handiwork in later
life.
Looking at the effort making by Mrs.
Bartholomew and Mrs. Rank from this
vital standpoint, it is to be confessed
that their class is not near SO large as
Frostburg, teeming with eligible chill
dren, should have made it.
Later-The JOURNAL is informed that
the school is indebted to w. E. G.
Hitchins for a fan for each pupil, and to
]. A. Caldwell for the fine white sand
which fills the sand-t table.
Fresh flowers would be acceptable
each day to brighten the rooms and
sweeten the atmosphere.

Died,

At the residence of Henry w. Wagner
Friday, June II, 1904, Mrs. Elizabeth
Nash, widow of the late John Nash, aged
81 years. Advanced age, with it's en-
feeblements, had grown upon her for
some time, and latterly she had not been
seen on the streets for some time.
Mrs Nash, nee Williams, came here in
1853, and married the next year. Three
sons were born to her, one OF whom lost
his life in mine over 25 years ago. The
two others-Joshua w. and Andrew E.,
are prominent and prosperous residents
of Minneapolis, MINI.
Though it is not certainly known
where she was born the following copy
of paper found by DAVIDSON Armstrong
in the archives of the Frostburg M. f.
Church indicates Pontypool, or vicinity,
in England, as her birthplace:
MARCH 49, 1858.
Dear Brother!
The bearer, Elizabeth Williams, is a Mem
Der of the Wesleyan Methodist Society, in
the Pontypool Circuit.
recommend her to your pastoral care-to
be directed to a suitable Class.
Gro. kEvEM.
Eyer since Mrs. Nash has been with
out fault and without reproach an ex-
emplar of the highest human profession.
She was in every sense true, good
woman, Christian innately consistent
and unaffectedly devout. Her walk and
conversation were, therefore, full of
gentle example and tender precept to all
who came within her horizon:
The blessings of her quiet life
Fell on us like the dew,
And good thoughts where her footsteps
press'd
Like fairy blossoms grew.
Sweet promptings unto kindest deeds
Were in her very look;
We read her face as one who reads
\ true and holy book.
Both SONS attended the funeral, which
was held in the NJ f. Church Monday
afternoon, Rev j. w. II. Sumwalt con-
ducting the services. Interment in
Allcgany cemetery followed.

Summer Is Here.

The Spring poet in New Germany has
been superseded by the Summer bard.
The meister-singers of Old Germany
may hold their own on all lyric topics,
but, as stated, they must give way to
reform in the New.
These observations are founded upon
contribution to the JOURNAL dated
New Germany, Md, June %, 1905" as
follows:
o. Summer, you re here agin at last
Though Spring had come in fust;
We all have long'd for thee, sweet Summer,
Until we thought we'd bust
The catbirds are flying in the trees;
The flowers will bloom soon;
You re welcome Summer, by everybody
From white man down to coon.
OF all the seasons of the "Rn"m
You are the most de jnrc:
Who all could not appreciate thee
Would be a rooster sure.
But even thou, sweet Summer, have faults
Two fills us all with signs;
1t would he much nicer if you would
Cut out the bugs and flies.

Adorned with Gallo bays
And lured by Glory's mocking beam.
Great Cesar fords the fateful stream.
Under the moons pale taper clear,
On red Pharsalian plain.

Mid CORY heaps of slain,
And rich with many an orient gem

Behold on statued Senate floor
Imperial Caesar dead.

But Glory's course is swiftly run.

To play DER Oceans breast.

Confronts the mailed West.
With battles clang and Humorous roar,
Loud echoes steep Phillippi's shore.
