PENIS Grove Plays a 2O.innlng Tie
PauISbOro /

Penn's Grove A. AL Paulsboro |
One of the longest and most hotly on
tested games ever played in South jersey
was witnessed by the largest crowd of
the season last Saturday III the local
diamond. Paulsboro was the attraction
and it was evident that they came for re-
venge for the shut out they received OH
their first visit, as their line up was
strengthened by the addition OF a couple
OF new players. Hates was again in the
box for the visitors and but for a couple
OF fielding miscues in the first inning,
should have BANKED the local boys.
Featherer served them up for the P.
A.. AS and had the visitors at his mercy
until the ninth inning, when, with the
score l to 0 and two men out Hunters
error allowed the visitors to tie the score.
After the ninth, time after time, the plate
was threatned by both teams, but fast
fielding and invincible pitching killed
the chances of scoring for both sides.
1t would be tiresome to 60 into details of
the play during the long drawn contest.
The small notes below will give some
idea of the game, however.
The score:

ACROSS THE RIVER.

The City ordinance. allows Jersey farm
ers to sell their own produce on certain
streets in Wilmington. 1t has been Gus.
tomary for years for small farmers to be
iii market all the time and not only sell
the produce from their own farm, but to
sell OH commission for others. Some in
fact, got to selling in the Jersey market
on commission. The Wilmington pro-
duce dealers have been having the ordi-
nance enforced of late, and all those who
do not grow their own produce, have left
the street market and now sell .on the
wharf.
The Street and Sewer Directors have
decided to enforce the City ordinance
which prohibits fruit stands on the side
walks, after October LIST.
The law does not prohibit persons hav-
ing stores exhibiting their goods on
stands on the side sidewalks in front of
their stores unless the stands are more
than four feet beyond the building line.

Borough Council

An adjourned regular meeting of tht
Borough Council was held Tuesday
evening. Mayor Gentieu presided with
Councilman Long, Layman, Smith and
Morgan present.
Current bills were ordered paid.
A letter was read from Snyder & Co
who are building the State road stating
that they would continue the State road
to the foot of Main Street between cutters
at 45c a square yard. Their estimate of the
surface is 2100 square yards, which will
cost about $3.50. They estimate the
grading at about $50 extra if cinders are
furnished by the Borough.
Several Of the principal property own
ers along the proposed improvement
were present to discuss with the Council
the ACCESSIBILITY of lowering the grade
from Oak Street to the river so as have
a surface drainage from Boone's ice
cream saloon. A profile of the grade
showed a cut of two feet six inches to
three feet between Leaps stores. 1t would
be such a great change to property grades
that it was not considered practicable,
because the natural drainage was from
Penn to Oak street.
Those present also considered the cost
of stone too much and advised that the
Council investigate the use and cost OF
Stag to cover the end of Main street.
The Clerk was authorized to
icate with the Gas Company concerning
the location of another street lamp on
East Main Street near the residence of
Councilman L. P. Morgan. 1t had been
authorized months ago.
A resolution was adopted to regulate
the furnishing of grades for curbs to pro-
perty owners who which to make i'm
provements. The resolution is published
in another column.

ley hit by fair ball.
Struck out by Hates, 10; by Feather
er IA; base on balls by Hates 4, by
Featherer 2; hit by pitcher, Feathers
4, Hates 2.
SOM POINTS ABOUT THE GAME
First tie game of the season.
Hates was invincible at critical stages
Featherer was up against a veteran
pitcher and stayed with him.
PENIS Grove had IA men on bases
and Paulsboro Is:
After Biddle had drawn a pass, in the
sixth, Featherer famed. Holdcraft and
Hunter both singled, filling the bases
Griffith tried hard to send in a talley
but famed, likewise Fish.
In the 10th after Smith and Biddle had
been retired, Featherer made his second
single Holdcraft got hit and Hunter drew
a pass. Griffith had another chance to
bring in a run but failed-struck out.
Paulsboro had the local rooters guess
ing in the 10Th. Hates made his second
single, Mahoney following with a single.
Pote went out the Holmes oldcraft
route. Reed was hit which filed the
bases.
Featherer settled down and struck
Farley out, M. Bates, the next man up
flying to Holmes.
Holdcraft fooled Farley in the 18th by
hiding the ball. 1t is an old trick but
our boys work it successfully quite often.
Harker was emf in to bat for Griffith
in the 18th but both times up famed.
Hunters errors i'll the 9th were made
at the most tickliest moment. 'fShack''
got away with 9 hard chances, which
shows that he played the game.
In the last four innings the local boys
have played 40 innings with only one
run being scored against them a record
to be proud of.
Kille knocked a foul to first in the 9TH
and as Holdcraft was ready to catch it,
deliberately threw himself into Chunk"
throwing him to the ground and giving
him a rough jolt, This was the d~irtiest
piece OF ball playing ever seen on our
grounds and the management has taken
steps to have Kille who halls from Pedrick-
town, barred from any games OIL the To-
cal diamond.
Pedricktown was represented and root
ed hard for Paulsboro to win. A case of
sou grapes. Be game, boys, and be good
loosers.
Umpire Prasch, of Paulsboro, alterna-
ted with Ward and both gave entire sat-
isfaction.
Seven straight games won and one
tied is going
Woodstown's strong outfit comes to
town on saturday. Keep up the good
work boys and trim our friends from
across the county.
That double play by Hunter, Holmes
and Holdcraft in the 18th was a corker..
McManus, the Gibbstown catcher,
covered first for Paulsboro and came very
near causing trouble by his double in the
seventh.
Besides pitching a great game, Feather.
err made the only run and secured two
hits.
Holdcraft's hitting is improving with
every game.
The way our boys have had to play to
win from our South Jersey rivals, shows
that the article of ball put up by the
Wilmington clubs is very much inferior.
Morris will likely pitch next Satur-
days game against Woodstown.
Paulsboro will come to play PENIS
Grove next Saturday.

Remarks by MIR. Shaw

HERE IS an example OF the way NEkAsMsS
II former Secretary Shaw, speaking kmsszSM
for the Republicans. illustrated the Gsssszs@.5ss
points IN his argument.
Our political opponents charge us
first with rCbbng the people, and then squandering
the proceeds | do not know what it costs to
run TINS Government: but / know Of some people
who contribute more largely than l.
Some years ago gentleman returning from
Europe made the required declaration IN which he
declared nothing dutiable The department had
received some confidential advice concerning his
operations and the examiner asked him if he had
not forgotten something He said he had not
If YOU had a necklace you would not be likely
To forget it. would youI'
iIe said he did have a necklace, and he said some
other things. Returning tourists when caught in
the act, usually say other things Sometimes the
gentlemen say other things than ladies, and some
tunes the ladies say some things We asked HIM
he wanted to put 1t down, and ne put it down,
and he also put down the duty, twent weight thou
sand dollars That cost nothing.
/ was down at Tltfany's awhile ago and asked
New-York tribune., 1908-10-18

to see the best dinner plates they had. | was
shown set of decorated china plates at three thou
The duty paid on these plates was over a thousand
dollars dozen: but 1t cost me nothing, tor did
not buy any.
Two or three years ago was riding in the private
car of a friend 1t was before the enactment OF the
rate bill | was offered cigar l do not smoke:
but collect the duty on cigars know some
thing of their cost. | said to him, This Is a fine
cigar 1t was the kind you buy at the store for one
dollar and twenty-five cents,-a pretty good C1gaT-
He said Yes l import them myself
Il asked him how much he paid
He said: l pay to the Government about one
hundred dollars month on my cigars.
But that did not cost me anything, and 1t would
not have cost him much II he had smoked Old
Virginia cherOots three for five
Tive years ago a lady of great wealth returning
from Europe manifested, as thought, a great
deal of pride as she wrote down the articles she
purchases by freight Among these articles was a
lace bertha that cost her nine thousand dollars on
the other side. 1t a beautiful thing, one of
the best | have ever seen. We told her that II she
would contribute sixty per cent hVe thousand tour
hundred dollars. to the running expenses OF the
Government she might wear it She had IN her
trunks that day sixty-seven thousand dollars worth
of fine things on which she paid IN duty th1rty-One
thousand and some odd hundred dollars The next
year she went again. and when she returned she
contributed eleven thousand dollars. tried to get
her to 90 again this year.
None of this cost me anything. 1t did not cost
YOU anything If We are rObbmg these people as
charged by opponents. We do II III broad day
light and they know 1t IN advance
Anecdotes by Mr. Bryan
HERE are two campaign stories often told by
II William ] Bryan The first illustrates the con
tentment that IS preached by those enjoying special
privileges to those who complain of injustice.
A who had been taught to be content with
his lot became very poor He traded off his
for a loaf of bread but before he could eat a dog
came and snatching the bread ran away The man
was indignant at first. but the old feeling of
contentment stole over him and he the dog
vanish round the corner he exclaimed. Well thank
God have my appetite left!"
The second story illustrates the argument that
while the Republicans sometimes talk reform they
have not yet given the country much along that line
