BASE BALL.

A game at Kilmarnock between the
married and single men Monday re-
suited in score of to 10 in favor of
the latter.
Tappahannock defeated Kinsale last
Saturday at Warsaw by score of 8 to 2.
This was pitchers battle of the first
order, all the five runs being made on
errors. Battery for Tappahannock,
Wright and Simmons, while Kinsale
pitched Newsome, who did not allow a
hit during the game.
Irvington and Sharps played their
third game this season on the formers

will play on the Fair Grounds Friday
afternoon of this week.
Possibly the hardest fought game of
ball in Lancaster during this season was
played at Irvington little over a week
ago. The contesting teams were known
as Irvington and Tappahannock, and it's
no secret that each of these clubs
believes itself the strongest. And
surely they were pretty well matched,
for it took eleven innings to decide who
was entitled to the laurels. On the oc-
casion aforementioned eighteen boys
whose ages average about 8 years each,
none over IL and some not much over
6, lined up on private lawn to settle
dispute of long duration and unmerci-
full thrusts. AS Tappahannock was the
visiting team it was given first bats,
and then the war ragged and at times
the umpire, who was no other than
the manager of the Irvington regulars.
announced his decisions, when close,
with fear and trembling. At the end
of the ninth inning the score stood q
tie and the same prevailed at the end
of the tenth and until the first half of
the eleventh, when Tappahannock scored
and then retired the Irvington boys as
they came up. Score 10 to IL. Battery
for Irvington was Bussells and Oliver,
for Tappahannock Jones and Jones.

SQUIRES' MACHINERY DAMAGED. !,

While cruising off Damons Marshes,
in Chesapeake bay, Thursday of last
week the fishing steamer George P.
Squires, Of the Bellows s. Squires' fac
tory, this county, sustained an accident
to her machinery which will put her
out of commission for several weeks.
Apparently without cause and without
warning parts broke which set the
whole works loose to wreck itself, and
but for the engineers promptness in
shutting off steam the boat might also
have suffered great damage and lives
endangered.
She was towed to Baltimore. where
she is being repaired by the E. j. Codd
Co. The boat was insured.
