In the stable of DIR. W. j. Pennell of
Auburn, dancing about on four of the
trimmest little legs imaginable. is a tiny
black and white pony. not quite a week
old. Probably no pony in Maine, and few
in the United States is possessed Of any
finer pedigree or bluer blood The pony's
father is Blue Ribbon, owned by Dr. Pen
nell stallion that has won first prize at
ST. Louis and at Madison Square Garden.
New York., and in foremost Canadian
Pony shows. His mother Is Pansy a reg
istered animal of the best breeding. The
baby is not named yet, but quite likely
will be called "Blue Ribbon Jr.," after his
father When he was three days old he
weighed just IS pounds, but for all that
he is very handsomely shaped. and is hard
as a brick. Father and mother are both
very gentle and clever. and the youngster
!, should inherit a store of natural intelli-
gence and good sense. Just at present he
wants to caper about the barn whenever
he gets the chance, or suck the fingers Of
good humored visitors.

The game was a good one to watch and
aboanded in many fine plays Both teams
scored in the first inning, but in the
fourth the Congregational team by plenty
of hitting added three and two more in
the fifth. The Sacred Heart boys were
unable to score after the first inning.
The Sacred Heart team put up a fine
game considering that this was their first
game. T. O'Connell made several excel
lent plays in the center garden and
caught a difficult fly For the Congrega-
tional team the hitting of Nutting was a
feature. The first time up he knocked a
homer, and the second time he put the
ball to the right field fence but was
thrown out at the plate in trying to make
another home run. The score:
