NEWARK ALDERMEN
TRIMMED BY CITY
FATHERS or JERSEY
Played for Charity, but 1t Would
Have Been Charity
Not To.
SAID IT WAS BASEBALL
AND SCORE READ Is TO 5
Police Captain Christie Publicly
Presented with STAR
Badge at Game.

When the Common Council met last
night a motion to discharge the base
ball team was carried. This was due to
the fact that the Jersey City aldermen
visited this city yesterday and found it
an easy task to tally practically twice
as many runs as the local Pops, and
recently THE STARS team scored just
four times as many.
Two decisive defeats were just two too
many. and. In order not to further dis
grace the city, the team disbanded. The
aldermen, although not victorious, won
many dollars in the sale of tickets and
through their souvenir program for
sweet charity's sake.
The details of the game will go down
In history. and several thousand spec
%tators, including a number of the fair
sex, mayors and various officials from
DER the State all agreed that the day
was n worthy of particular mention.
Even though defeated by the score of
10 to s, the Newark officials demon
strated they were good losers by ban
quoting their opponents and friends
after the game.
At the park yesterday the hot nj
furter and peanut sellers did a good
business, for Young America was adj
mitted to the game free. To describe
the details of the game would necessi-
tate a volume, but it went something
like this:
Following the presentation of the gold
badge to Captain Christie, of the Third
Precinct, by President Harrigan, of the
Police Board, the game was played. 1t
was due to his winning the Morning
Stars contest to decide the most popu-
lar police captain in the city. In ad-
dition a large floral horseshoe was
presented to the commander of the
Third Precinct by the captains friends
in the Ironbound district.
The band and vocalist played n
sang "R-A-R-R-I-G-A-N," and the
grand old man smiled broadly.
Following this Mayor Haussling trot-
ted on the diamond, and like a veteran
twirler sent the ball in the direction of
the plate. Was it a strike or a ball?
To be candid it was the latter, for if
it were on a bowling alley it might
have been a strike, but not In baseball.
The Mayor then stepped out of the way
and the. game was On.
In only one department did the total
of the locals reach a higher point than
the visiting team, and that was in the
error column, Which cost the Newarks
the game. Joe Wright pitched a good
game, and all hands hatted hard in
back of him. Mike Leveen drove out a
homer, Captain MCGOWAN a triple, and
several others doubles. Leveen made a
great stop in the final inning n got
it to first in time to retire his man.
Alderman Holzner, who officiated as
umpire with City Clerk Michael L.
Pagan. was the only one injured. A
foul tip landed on his hairless read and
caused a bump the size of an egg to
appear.
The score tells what the representa-
tlves of Bob Davis's bailiwick did.
One thing was evident, and that was
the visitors were more youthful and
found it easier to get around than such

so that all the latter has to do is follow
the machines and hold himself in readiness

part of the other riders. He will use a
French machine with which II new Euro

Moran at a 1:24 gait in his twenty-five
