PROF PLATES MUSICALE. PROCEEDS TO BE DEVOTED TO THE
 SANDY HOOK LIBRARY.

It should be of special interest to all the patrons and friends of the Sandy Hook library, that the net proceeds of the annual recital of MT Platt $ pupils, assisted by others, will go toward the expenses of printing catalogue of books, for general public use. The musicale will be held in Glover's hall, June 7,and fuller notice will be given by the Professor, next week. l do not much want to appeal to people to pat ronize good work on the ground of a double benefit to be gained; but such is the kindness and generosity of our local music teacher, that we are offered not only musical treat, but the use of our money over again, applied to our own public interests. There is every good reason why the musicale should receive a large, enthusiastic audience;-for the sake of the chill dren; for the sake of the faithful teacher; for the sake of the library; and in short for the general public good in every sense. And 1t is to the honor of the people of our town that, as a rule, our home entertainments are gen. erously appreciated.-[O. O. Wright.

The Nashville Team Won the Baseball Game From the Montgomery Team in Nashville Yesterday
 Afternoon.

Something in the euphonious rip bling of the Italian phrase. Doogan and Coogan" seems to hypnotize the them into lot of trouble Friday and 1t was Misther Coogan who did that same yesterday. deliberately winning the game, after 1t was lost, by a score of 3 to 9
 To be more explicit it was not alto gether Misther Coogan's fault that the Finlanders copped the game. but the fault of Third Baseman Perry who made a sad mess of Misther Coogan's the second out. But it didn't
 John Malarky and Herman were in against each other and both pitched good baseball While ns Malarky I,r S had the the best of it on the hit proposition. The Climbers were able in only one inning, the sixth. to bunch hits on Herman. while Finn's people punched them on two runs coming in the ninth as re. suit of Perry's error and couple of safeties.
 Not run was scored until the sixth to throw of Houtz's hit, Houtz going to third. Busch was out on foul to Misther Coogan and Schwartz was out on a fly to wiseman. Sam Apperious ter field. Houtz walking oyer the plate. Then came Mulfs inevitable twobagger and Apperipus scored Mo Cam ended 1t with a fly to. Wiseman.

one, five hit balls to Ragans three and striking out four batters to Raggan's one five hits being made off each.
 Never will Montgomery fans forget the finish of that last vame. The bas- as were full in the ninth inning with two out and Frank Delehanty whom Montgomery had traded to Birmingham for Lynch. at the bat. Besides being one of the heaviest hitters in the league Delehantv naturally wanted to beat his former team mates if he could. And the fans at Higgins matinee tremoled had three balls and two strikes when would have been ball and would have hanty was too anxious and bit at it. had struck out with the bases full and the Climbers had the game by l score of one to nothing.
 The only ones of that famous team who will be in the game in Birmi ig- ham Wednesday are Charlie Schwartz and Dominick MullaneY. Both of them played magnificent games on the last fourth and both of them will repeat the trick Wednesday. Instead of McMakin and SteIkell, Null will probably nave Wedn esdaY MalarkeY and Maxwell while instead of Dessau and Ragan, Vaughan will probably work Sallee or Clark and Wilhelm. Both games should prove great contests, but If the Barons beat Malarkv and Maxwell they will most assuredly deserve everything they get.

 On the fourth of July last year the Climbers won both games by scores of fourteen to one and one to nothing In the two games they gathered IS hits and : runs with two errors in the two games, Birmingham making seven. The morning game was more of a bur lesgue. John McMakin pitching it against Dessau. Harry Vaughan hay ing to pitch the game out for Dessau. The afternoon game was d great con test.
