 The Maplewoods scored their twelfth straight victory yesterday by defeating the Millville fire depart ment team, the score being 22 to 6. The batteries were, Maplewoods, Grove and Swanson; Millyille F. D., J. Quinn, Ostroski and Housekneet. The feature of the game was the pitching of Quinn of the Millvilles, whose delivery was "cinch' for the Maplewood team, for fifteen runs were made during the three innings that he was on the slab. On the other hand Grove pitched a steady game and his delivery was puzzle to the sluggers from Millville. A re- turn. game is now being arranged be- tween the managers of these two teams.

James Butler, first; T. Casey, second; John Shea, third. J. J. Carroll of Water bury acted as judge of all the events. John Hennessey was starter and Francis Collins was timekeeper.
 Miserable weather spoiled every thing Saturday so far as outdoor events was concerned. The two games of ball scheduled to be played at firemen's field between the fire de- partment team and the Tigers of New Haven were postponed until far away day, and it meant a great finan- cial loss to the management of the team as they had hoped for the day to be good. To even up matters caus- ed by the cold weather lasting so far in the month just passed, the picnic which was to be held by the A. o. H. was also postponed, and the rain came down so hard about evening that those who had reached their home were slow to leave them, and the stores that were opened found hat no business was being done and clos ed early, so taking it all in all 1t was very unsatisfactory day for those who had made plans to do anything.

and in ms good physical condition as
when he began his record breaking
speech. His voice showed no signs OF
the extraordinary strain 1t had under

somewhat swollen from standing so
long. His back and legs were also
sore from leaning against a chair. He
went to a barber shop where he was
shaved then refusing offers of ca e

Issue OF his paper, the Preston Leader.
did not come out for Mr.. Swisher. as
he had publicly declared 1t would. but
the Senator does say that he was CIV
en- the icy NIT In Taylor and he thinks
It was an uncnllel for action. On this
point the Leader says:
Senator Montgomery attended the
Taylor county convention solely in
the interest OF the candidacy OF the
Attorney General. William G. Conley.
He so informed every Republican
lender and every delegate that he APP
proachel. He was incensed at the
treatment accorded the resolution TO
endorse the Hon. ". G. Conley by
the managers of the convention. He
thought then and believes now. that
the delegates would have overwhelm-
tngly endorsed his candidacy hn.l they
been given the opportunity. This was
all Senator Montgomery asked and
surely thfs IVES not an unreasonable
request. We have been battling for
majority rule for long time-until
we have become fully imbued with the
thought that the majority ought to
rule. We said at the time, and do not
retract now, that the Scherr managers
In Taylor county made n mistake. but
we were not ut the convention In the
interest of Mr.. Charles Nv. Swishcr.

trlrthfulness of this statement than
