ISOLATION, Attorney General Knox has
promised to institute an investigation
into the conduct of the Paper Trust,

Somewhere, someway, it was my hope To
find
A place for aptly rhyming strength with
length
Thus proving that oftirnes IN length lies
strength.
But rhyme and reason ever walk apart,
The one not knowing where the other
goeth,
And any budding poet who may start
To follow them will go where no man
knoweth.
So here stand. alost, alone. astray,
But, strange to say, I'm not the least bit
vexed;
Ill follow rhyme. not reason, any day,
Because she'll tell ME what I must say
next
However. it is true that men are
fools
Who cripple thought by unaccus-
toned tools.

NARROW ESCAPE

Third Victory From
Montreal by a Close
Margin.

Baltimore-Buffalo Game POST
poned by Rain-Newark
and Orange Give a
Benefit.

The Jersey City team had remark
ably narrow escape from defeat yester-
day at the hands of Montreal, whom it
had walloped twice in succession. This
was apparently the result of over con-
fidence. The locals played loose ball at
first, and at the end of the eighth inning
the score stood Z to 4 in favor Of the
visitors, who looked upon the game as
practically won. Then the Skeeters got
their backs up Halligan went out on
a fly and Montrears captain-manage
smiled. The smile changed to chagrin
when Yeager fumbled Doolin's hit and
allowed him to make first Woods did
the same on an error by Hartman, and
Doolin made second. Dillon's hit sent
Doolin home, and hot liner by Brown,
who batted for Faxoh, sent Woods home.
Clement sent a safe one to right field
and Dillon went home, thus tying the
score. The fans grew excited. Brown
attempted to reach home on Beams drive
to first but failed In the tenth inning
Mccain went into the box for the
locals. Atherton and Hartman made
two safe hits off him, but neither scored,
as Yeager, Cosgrove and Gibson were
unable to give them any assistance.
With the Jerseys at the bat Keister
flied out to Yeager. Then Halligan was
hit by ball which sent him to first.
He stole second. Doolin went out on
a foul fy to Catcher Gibson. Woods
sent safe beauty to the right in the
nick of time and sent Halligan kiting
home to score the winning run. The
fans went wild.
Faxon, who was in the box for the
locals, went to pieces in the sixth in
ming His delivery was 50 wild that
he was sent to the bench. Eason took
his place. Captain Atherton was in the
box for the visitors. As new hand he
did some remarkably fine twirling.
