FREEHOLDERS lin SESSION.

The mid summer or regular July
meeting of the Board of Freeholders was
held at the Court House Wednesday.
It was shortly after ten o'clock when
the session convened with all the mem
bers present and Director Jere. N.
Ogden in the chair.
Important matters to be disposed of
were the county buildings proposition,
the Malaga road Improvement, the
Port Elizabeth bridge, end other mat
ters.
The minutes of the previous session
were read and approved and a long list
of bills paid.
There were numerous reports of Com
mittees. Mr.. Erickson for the Public
Road Committee reported an inspection
of the Malaga road which is asked to
be improved. Mr.. Erickson said that
the road was in very bad shape. Mr..
Erickson said the members of the COM
mittee differed in relation to the i'm
provement Of the roadway. A major
ity of the committee agrees to recon-
mend the Improvement of the road by
the county and State. Mr.. Erickson
said that there had been no agreement
by Landis township to maintain the
road when completed.
Mr.. Smiley, of Vineland, presented
a resolution providing for. the improve
ment of the road. and there was some
discussion relative to the matter.
Mr.. Reeves did not think that the
resolution should prevail unless Landis
township agreed to maintain the road
after it was built.
Judge Tuller made an argument sup
porting the demand of Lands town
ship for the improvement of the road
The resolution was lost to 12.

BRIDGETON PLAYED WELL.

The Philadelphia Giants, one of the
of the very best colo1ed teams on the
road, came here Tuesday.
1t is almost foregone conclusion
when a team of this calibre appears,
that the victory will go away with
them, but Bridgeton gave them a much
harder tussle yesterday than they were
looking for. They had no time for the
usual monkey shines that are feature
with these teams but spent their time
playing base ball to win. Bridgeton
did the almost impossible, that of pass
ing them after they had some runs to
the good, and for several innings
played on even terms with the Giants.
Eisenberger was on the mound, and
the youngster pitched a mighty good
game for the team he was up against,
and the rather shaky support he had at
times. The hit column shows eleven
apiece, and each team earned two runs,
showing that hitting alone was far
from responsible for the result.
Bridgeton's four runs came in three
innings In the fourth, More was safe
when the first baseman juggled his
twisting grounder, but was forced at
second by Lavelle, Ball singled, then
Bowling singled, scoring Lavelle;
Knox's grounder to the pitcher forced
] Pat at second, Ball taking third;
Rowe hit to short and Bowman failed
to hold Lloyd's poor throw, Mike
scoring.
Eisenberger opened the next with
long slam to left; it was slightly
misjudged but went for two bases.
Newberry ran for him and took third
on passed ball, Kelchner hunted three
fouls, then More singled scoring New
berry, Lavelle hit into fast double
play. @
Bridgeton didn't count again until
the last. With two down Rowe
singled, Marten followed suit, Barth
was hurried into bat for Eisenberger,
and our pinch hitter slammed a beauty
to centre, scoring Rowe, but it lasted
no longer as "Cap." Kelchner was
famed.
The Giants made two in the third
when a single, a poorly attempted
fielder's choice which got no one out,
an out and long single scored the
first two. In the sixth, two hits, two
errors, a steal and sacrifice netted two
more.
A hit, a pass, an error, an out and
another hit, gave three, while a pass
followed by double landed the last in
the eighth. None of the last six were
earned.
Knox had very big day. no less
than twelve chances coming his way,
and he took all but one. and it was
hard one at that. The visitors were
very quick felders, making four double
plays which did good deal toward
sweeping off Bridgeton runners. The
same teams play to-dav.
The score:

Cross Counsry Runner.

H. Walter Schlichter, manager of
the Philadelphia Giants who played
here yesterday and will play again to-
day, was a cross country runner of
high reputation when a young man.
He and Harvey W. Porch of this city,
were both members of the Schuylkill
Navy Athletic Club track team and
won many honors and medals They
were partners in the races.
Schlichter is now sporting editor of
the Philadelphia Item and is one of
the fairest and best known sporting
men in Philadelphia.
