Base Ball.
RADCLIFFE 3; BRY !

RADCLIFFE 3; BRYANT's POND 2.
Before small crowd Saturday after
noon, Radcliffe defeated Bryant's Pond
in loosely played but interesting game
by the score of 3 too. The makeup of
the Radcliffe team was considerably
changed, and the outfield was much
stronger, covering LOT of ground and
backing up the infield in good shape.
The opposing pitchers were Jordan and
]. Farnum and there was little to choose
from between the two. Jordan, how
ever, received better support at critical
times, and did some good batting which
helped him to win his game.
Both teams played poorly in the open
ing inning. For Bryant's Pond, three
errors and one hit, which might have
been scored an error, presented them
with one run. For Radcliffe, four errors
and a stolen base enabled them to score
two runs.
In the fourth inning, Parlin led off
with hit, Jordan also hit safely, Pike
was hit by a pitched ball, filling the
bases. Nash then turned in neat
sacrifice and Parlin scored, Leonard
flied out to d. Hayes, who threw Jordan
out at the plate.
Emery and Billings started the seventh
with safe hits, Jordan threw wild on j.
Farnum's sacrifice and Emery scored,
Billings reaching third and Farnum sec.
ond. d. Hayes hit to Cole, who tielded
the ball to the plate, and Billings was
run down between home and third
Leonard then caught J. Farnum off sec.
ond, Nash coming in from centre field
and making the play. This spoiled
Bryant's Ponds chance to tie the score
In the eighth and ninth innings Bryants
Pond went out in one, two, three order.
The feature of the game was the play
ing of Nash, who knows the game thor
oughly and played ball all the time.
The many friends of Irving Pike were
glad to see him once more playing, after
being out of the game for two seasons
on account of illness. Theg game did him
no harm, and it is hoped he will be able
to continue playing. His two errors
we're made on the first two men at thu
bat, after that he steadied down and
PLAYED in his old time form.
The score.

MODEST CLAIMS OFTEN CARRY
THE MOST CONVICTION.

When Maxim, the famous gun in
ventor, placed his gun before COM
mittee of judges, he stated Its carrying
power to be much below what he felt
sure the gun would accomplish. The
result of the trial was therefore a great
surprise, instead of disappointment.
1t is the same with the manufacturers OF
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and Diar.
rhea Remedy. They do not publicly
boast of all this remedy will accomplish,
but prefer to let the users make the
statements. What they do claim, is that
it will positively cure diarrh1a, dysen.
