BASEBALL NEWS.-NICH0LS 9 SPORT HILL 0.

fhe above is the score which our
 ball team, assisted by wagon load of
 Fans" and Rooters. were able 10
 pile up against Sport Hill on Saturday
 afternoon. The game was short and
 snappy and thoroughly enjoyed by the
 Nichols people, After the game,
 luncheon was served on the lawn by
 the ladies of the party, after which the
 trip home by moonlight was made.
 College songs, cheers. etc., enlivened
 the ride, though we are afraid more than one voice felt the effect of the cheering the next morning. Nichols
 was reached about 10 o'clock and all, though somewhat tired, voted a fine time. Owing to Catcher Wellington being unable to play, MT Kirk of Bridgeport substituted, doing excellent work, the other member of the bat tery, Pitcher "Stevie" was better than ever, striking out nine men. The whole team played with a snap and vigor, we all like to see, not a Sport Hill man getting beyond second base. Frank Reed. short stop, being unable to play, on account of illness of rela- tive, that position was ably filled by Bert Smith. Much credit should be given the boys of Sport Hill for the good game they put up, being under a big disadvantage in being unable to get together for practice. Among those who drove over in their own teams were, MT and Mrs Percie Card, Mir and Mrs Edward Bennett, MT and Mrs Edward Nothnagle and MT and Mrs George Nc Donald. On Saturday, the 18th, return game will be played here, with the Y. M. c. A. team of Bridgeport. Ice cream will be on sale at the close of the game. On the 22d Trumbull and Nichols will play here 1; the 29th game will be played with Long Hill, the place to be announced later; ana on Labor Day the season will close with game with Sport Hill, to be played in the Village.

 We understand plans are being laid for the formation of a league to in- clude teams from Nichols, Trumbull. { Huntington, Long Hill and Sport Hill 8 possibly one or two more teams. We r nope this plan will be carried out. c

The automobile was intended to take the place of the horse-not to compete with the railroad train. Sane travelling does not mean travelling over ordinary country roads at 70 miles an hour, faster than express trains that run on steel rails, laid on expensive stone bal- lasted. roadbeds.)
 Sane travel is to travel comfortably, at a safe rate of speed, without "risking your life" if tire bursts, or punctures, or the automobile "skids."
 The Holsman is built especially to suit the requirements of those who want sane, safe, comfortable travel-without jarring, pumping or jolting.
 Take a Ride With Us and learn how easily The Holsman is' controlled-how comfortably it rides. We are glad to demonstrate it.
