We're in progress in the city and vicin-
ity Monday evening was the farewell
entertainment given the members Of

ISOLATION. The affair was Of informal
nature, but the pleasure thereof was
not lessened on that account. and will
long be remembered with feelings Of
pleasures by those who participated.
The festivities of the evening COM
menced with a reception to the team at
the ElkS hall, where the Inequalities
of the lodge were extended to the visit
ors, after which an adjournment was
made to Hotel North, where a banquet
was served by Landlord Boynton.
Plates was laid for 2S, and after the
different dishes had been discussed an
enjoyable hour was passed with music.
Among the guests present was Manager
John Dempsey of the Jersey City base
ball team. Mr.. Dempsey is 4 fine sing
er and favored the company with sew
eral selections. and it was also demon
strated by some of the members of the
ball team that they could sing as well
as they could play the game.
From the hotel the boys were taken
TO the Eagles hall where they were
further entertained, and after pleas
ant hour with the members Of the lat
ter order the party crossed the river
and attended the ball of the Augusta
Yacht Club at City hall. where they
tripped the light fantastic until the
small hours of the morning. 1t was
late when the boys finally sought their
boarding places, but when they did so
it vas with the feeling that they had
enjoyed one of the best times in their
lives.
With the exception Of the Kennistons
the members of the team left for home

team has done great work on the dia-
mond this season. and II is the hope OF
ali supporters of the national game
that they will be with US another
season.
