MONDAYS BALL GAME.

MONDAYS BALL GAME.
 The New Milford nine came over to play the Y. M. c. team, Monday, and after playing five innings forfeited the game. It was an unusually interest," ing game while it lasted, only one base hit being made on either side, and only one or two errors. The home team were easily outplaying the visi- tors, in spite of the fact that the lat ter tried to use willow bats. There were good plays made by Knowles and Bruens, catching a difficult foul fly each, and by Lyman, a line fly. There were no runs on either side, New Mill ford, not having seen second base, three of the home team having reach ed third, when in the fifth inning the former made one run on errors. Their captain called his men off, claiming that there had been an agreement to play only five innings, of which nei- ther captain of the home team nor umpire knew anything. The ending was very unsatisfactory to all, even though the umpire declared it a for feited game. Four games have been played between the two teams, each having won two.

Mrs Jarah Allen, widow of the late South street, July 2e, soon after mid. day, on, Tuesday of last week. Mrs Judd had been in poor health for sev- eral years but she bravely fought. to overcome her disease and live for her children's sake. When the warm weather came, it produced change for the worse. At last she said to her friends: "I am SO tired I want rest. She fingered a few hours longer and fell asleep. A faithful mother and good sister has at last found rest she so much desired. The funeral took place at her late home, on Thursday afternoon, at 2.30 o'clock. Rev Hen " l.. Slack, pastor of the deceased, conducted the services. During the service, two selections were sung by Miss Anna l.. Smith, Mrs w. c. Swift, John Baird and Howard Woodman: Owing to the shower, the committal service was concluded at the house.

 with her mother, Phillip, in North Dakota, and two brothers, Samuel and
