TEN INNINGS AND A TIE.
Game Between Townshend and Lon
donderry Called With Score 8 TO 8.

One of the best, ii not the best game
of baseball seen in Townshend was played
here Tuesday, when the local team tried
conclusions with the Londonderry team.
The visitors were strengthened by Walsh
and Shaiileton, the East Arlington battery.
Excepting Evans, Walsh proved by far
the best pitcher the home boys have ever
faced, yet in the ten innings they found
him for nine hits, with total OF ten,
proving beyond doubt that some of the
home boys have it in them TO find a good
man, in spite of the fact that in the past
they have failed to land on pitchers OF
seemingly far less ability. As whole.
the visitors put up a good exhibition OF
baseball, and it is hoped they may be
seen here again. For the locals Lawrence
with a sprained ankle and sore knee-the
result OF game on August 10, proved
equal to the occasion, and with the in
yincible "Bilp Sparks as a backstop,
made things look dark for the visitors.
In the first inning Lawrence was found
for four hits which with four errors net
ted seven runs for Londonderry. This at
forded ample opportunity for them to
cheer Vain hope! They, like all other
mortals. are subject to disappointment
and when in the nine innings that fol-
lowed they only found Lawrence for three
hits they surely must have been disap,
pointed in spite of the fact that they did
not mention it.
Lawrence was there with the goods and
warmed the hearts of the loyal few who
have stood by him from the first. While
those who have considered him has
been must have opened at least one eye;
"Bill'-well, we all know what he will
do in spite of his corpulency. Big, good.
natured and fat, surely applies to Bill
Sparks After the first half of the first
inning the locals came together and play
ed ball, all doing well, Bush made the
sensational field catch of the game, and
did equally as well with the big stick,
coming in for three with a total OF four;
Benson and Kingsbury also made good
catches, while the base running OF Os-
good, H. Sparks and Livermore,. were
pleasing features and added to the in
terest of the game.
If the boys will give equally good ex-
hibitions of the national game, they may
rest assured they will have the hearty
support of all local baseball lovers.

Delightful Concert in Academy Hall.

That Townshend, although small vii
lage, is most fortunate in its summer VS.
itors, was proved by the concert Wednes-
day evening, under the auspices OF the
Home club, when Miss Esther Dale, So
prano, Miss Marguerite Harding, CON
tralto, and Miss Catherine Norton, pl,,
aniste, gave their services for good
cause. The academy hall was decorated
with hydrangeas and ferns and the seats
were filled with most appreciative au-
dience. The hearty applause showed that
each number was appreciated. Miss
Dale is charming always, but perhaps
she touched the hearts of her, audience
most with The Land O. the Leal and The
Years at the Spring. She rendered the
Chanson provencale particularly well.
Miss Harding has a rich contralto. voice
that has evidently been well trained. Its
richness and volume were appreciated IN
all her selections. In the duets the sweet,
clear, sympathetic soprano and the deep,
rich contralto blend perfectly. Miss Nor
ton won all by her presence and her per
feet command of the keys. Her technique
and her expression are both admirable and
won many praises. 1t is always good to
see Mrs. Blake in Townshend and her &C.
compartments added much to the success
of the concert. The Home club wishes
to express its hearty appreciation of the
time and talent which the artists so freely
gave.

ANSONIA.

Special JOurnaI-COurierN News Service.J In one of the most exciting basket ball games of the season the Ansonia five were defeated by the Strong Films. of Naugatuek, by the score of g to 21. Over one hundred rooters from Naug- atuck were present and with the large crowd of local enthusiasts who gath cred to witness the final game of the season the opera house was well filed This was the third time that the two teams met this season and great riv- airy exists between them. The Films by winning last evenings game proved that they have the better team, fact which will have to be acknowl- edged by all who were present. There were many fouls called during the game, but as the referee, Kimsey, of Yale, did not favor either team, no kick was made on this account at any time. Kimsey's refereeing was entirely satisfactory to both captains. The following is the line up of the teams:

PAYS INTEREST OF S35,OOO
Finance Board Approves Bill to That
 Effect.

In the bills which came before the board of finance for approval last evening was one for the sum of $35,- 61S.15, which is the interest due for the past six months on outstanding bonds to the amount of $1,956,O00. The sum was ordered paid,
 4 bill was also approved for $43,- 900, which is the amount of salaries in the department of education during the past month.
 The question of the issuance of s100,O00 worth of bonds, which the paving commission is waiting for so as to go to work on Division street, Winthrop avenue and other streets in that section of the city. was postponed a week. There is some opposition on the board to the issuing of the bonds. Alderman Miller is against it because he thinks the commission should have selected more central streets. No test of strength was made last night.
 A vote was passed authorizing the mayor and the controller to borrow a sum, not to exceed $200000, if need ed, in anticipation of taxes. This is a customary annual arrangement
