BASE BALL NOTES.

WOODSTOCK rs, W, n. JUNCTION 4,
Manager Howes' baseball virtuosi
were again triumphant in Saturdays
game, burying the Junctionites in Il
sWatfest that hasn't Ibeen equaled on
the grounds this season, The game
started off at fast pace, the visitors
scoring once in the first inning amid
applause of noisy delegation from
down the line. Woodstock, howev-
err, began business auspiciously with
four runs, getting in a few every
time up, and sending seven men
across the plate in the fifth inning.
The visitors made some good plays
but the all-round fine work Of the To-
Gals in batting, fast base running and
fielding, took the edge off their exhi-
bition.
Dumas made a difficult catch of a
foul fly, assisting in a double play,
and Fitzmorris won the cheers of
the crowd by heading off a hot fly
out beyond second base.
Pitcher Wyatt and his able associ-
ates eased up Il little in the sixth, else
they might have increased their ma
jority. Complete returns gave Wood
stock is, functions 4.

WOODSTOCK COUNTRY CLUB.
Considering Plan to Enlarge its
Property.

AT the annual meeting of the
Woodstock Country club held Tues
day evening a committee was APP
pointed to investigate the feasibility
of the purchase of additional land
for the improvement of the clubs
golf links.
The plan of acquiring more land
arose from the necessity of pro-
viding larger and better golf links
for the use of members and guests
and as an attraction for out-of-town
players now repealed by the some
what stern features Of the present
course.
At an adjourned meeting of the
club held Thursday evening the
committee made its report, which
was adopted by a nearly unanimous
vote. The plan as presented, omit
ting some of the details, is to pur.
chase the meadow and farm of
Stephen D. Townsend, adjoining
the clubs property, and to extend
the present golf links to include the
meadow and as much of the addi-
tional land as will be necessary to
the making of perfect course.
The plan also includes the sale of
part of the present grounds, the
club retaining the club house, spring
and the better and more picturesque
features of the property.
II the plan succeeds the improve
ments on the new property will be
begun at once. The res ult will be
to give an impetus to the real estate
values of Woodstock, to increase ITS
general attractivenesS and to furnish
to the town country club not ex
celled in its appointments anywhere
outside the suburbs of the grea
cities. The improvements will also
it is hoped, lead to the purchase o.
cottage sites in the neighborhood, Of
which there are many most desirable
