Baseball Notes.

A complete schedule of the games
will be in the Monitor just as soon as
we are able to close up our dates
! The management of the ball team
this season is arranging games for the
summer and booking players. 1t is the
of the team and management
this season to put up only the best ar
ticles in games and in ball.
The features of the game Saturday
were the hitting of Hitchcock and the
excellent throwing of Barrows. Web
ster pitched superb ball and has signed
with the Barton team for the season,
The ball team will play the Willough-
by Wood & Lumber Co. team at Athle-
tic park Saturday at 2 80 p. m. This
will be the first game in which our
team has been up against outside
players, and as they have a good team
this season they will certainly make
it interesting for US.
Keep it in your mind all the time
that we are to play our old rival,
Woodstock, at the Athletic park here
June Is and 26 and we have secured
games with Ludlow here for July 9 and
10. Ludlow will have a 4ne team if
reports are true and you will not re-
gret seeing all these games. AS Bar
ton Landing is coming fast and with a
fast bunch this season the arrangement
OF six games with them (Which is
pending) should bring out large crowds
and we trust a friendly rivalry which
may mean much to both towns.
At the benefit ball game Saturday
between the local teams there was a
good crowd and considerable enthus-
iasm. The so-called professional team
was the loser by score of to 4. The
battery for this team was Bishop and
Berry and for the ''scrub team" it was
c. S. Webster and c. A. Barrows.
Webster and Barrows both played a
star game all through, striking out
several men and catching several on
bases. At times there were signs of
some real baseball, fast and good, but
again there were times when little of
the real science of the game was dis
played. The attendance was compare
lively large, the gate receipts being
about $50, and SO was taken on the
grand stand at 10 cents per seat.
Everyone remarks what fine ground
this is and so easily reached. We al
most hesitate to say it, and of course
there may not be word of truth in it,
but we understand some advocated at
the close Of the game Saturday the
releasing of Bishop and Berry and
signing Webster and Barrows. Oh
course Barrows would demand gooc
money to leave his business but ther
he is worth it. Anyway the game
was much enjoyed and the money may
be needed later.

Barron, Miss Bickford, Miss Page and
Miss Hamblet The class received
many compliments on the success Of
the occasion.
The baccalaureate sermon by Rev.

the occasion, and special music was
rendered by the choir. There were
present the graduating class of the
high school, the graduating class of the
grammar school, teachers, and very
large audience who are always inter-
ested in school matters and especially
in the graduating exercises. Mr..
Dukeshire urged that the early life,
the first 20 years, be rightly lived and
that right influences be thrown about
the young people as the characters of
early life surely showed out often.
The following is the program for
commencement week at the academy
and graded school. On Tuesday eve
ming there will be a prize speaking
contest at the opera house. There are
eight numbers on the program and
music will be furnished by the school

solos by Mrs. Wright and Miss Barron
were much enjoyed. The trio, Mrs.
Batchelder Mrs. Stannard and Mrs.
Wright, also did their work finely, as
dld the Arion quartet. Especial men
tlon should be made of G.. F. Wheeler
OF Chicago. His selection from MAR
tha' was all that could be desired and
was vigorously encored. Mr.. Wheeler
IS always appreciated here where he
is so we'll known and has helped so
much in music. Powell's orchestra
added much to the enjoyment of the
occasion, as did Mrs. Drew's readings,
especially the drill of Yankee
Doodle Boy" 1t was regretted that
not able to attend.
Memorial exercises passed very
pleasantly Saturday. The day was
warm but pleasant, and large mum.
Der of people attended, showing their
respect for the G. A. R. and being
ready to respond to the desires of the
veterans and help make the day sue
cess. The procession, which was
formed near the Congregational church.
was one of the largest ever marching
to the cemetery with the soldiers. The
soldiers were few, their ranks being
depleted by the sickness of some of the
comrades. The band discoursed sweet
music, playing in close harmony, and
led the procession. They were fol-
lowed by the Knight Templars, the
Modern Woodmen, in their uniforms,
and the K. Of K. A. Following them
came large number of school children
bearing flowers. The girls were
dressed mostly in white and it was a
most inspiring sight to see how ami
mated they were and interested in the
occasion. Marshal J. A. Pearson and
Assistant Marshal Carl Hamblet direct
ed the procession. After reaching the
cemetery an abundance of flowers were
strewn reverently on the graves of
sleeping veterans, while little flags
denoting the patriotism of the fallen
comrades were placed at their heads.
The band escorted the procession to
Seaver's opera hall, and the program
began with medley from the band.
Rev. W. B. Dukeshire offered prayer
and the officer of the day, o. v.
Josl lyn,ih few we'll chosen words in

soldiers of the three wars, the Revo-
luton, the Rebellion, and the Spanish
war. He also referred to the moth

would not pale in the presence of the
soldiers whose valor was displayed on
the battlefield" Mr.. Dixon is a pleas

fine address. At it's close Comrade
Joslyn thanked the fraternities,
Knights and Woodmen, TIE band, the
speaker, Rev. W. B. Dukeshire, the
