WEST NEWBURY.

We noticed in last weeks OPIN-
ION that a vote of thanks had been
extended to Mr.. j. b. c. Tyler, by
the Ladies Aid Society for the gift
to that society of the land on which
the Putnam half is to be builded
or supposed to be builded.
Previous to this, mention was
made in the OPINION by the same
correspondent in in regard to the
land being donated by Mr.. Tyler.
Under existing circumstances, we
feel that Nh. Tyler does not appre-
ciate the honor(0 the ladies of that
society have conferred upon him,
not being in sympathy with the
movements Of that society as it now
exists.
We also noted a vote of thanks
extended to Mr.. Z. +. Putnam for
his very generously offer, and we
also noticed the omission Of a vote
of thanks to Mr.. John Smith for his
generous offer OF FIVE hundred dol
lars toward building the hall.
Mr.. Tyler gave the land, think
ing it the most convenient and suit
able place, being near the church,
and not from any party spirit OF
self agrandizement.
1t would have been more gratifv-
ing to the friends Of Mr. Smith, and
he has many, if some mention had
been made Of his offer, instead, he
has been ignored entirely. We do
not know that Mr.. Smith has ever
noticed this act of discourtesy, by
the, society toward a man who has
been a benefsctor to his town and

church, for, "The power to be little
is the proof of greatness and Mr..
Smith has well earned the title OF
greatness, by silently standing aside
while citizens, by tears and misrep-
reservations have "boasted them
selves into notoriety.
1t is an old saying and well APP
plies that "No one ever built him
self up, by pulling another down"
Mr.. Smith is too well known by his
fellow townsmen to be injured by
this act of petty spite; and ''The

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Stpt. 20.-With
twelve innings of good, wholesome
sport completed and the score still a
tie at to l, the game yesterday be-
tween the Greeleys of Chicago and the
Indiana Harbors was called on account
of darkness and also to allow the visit
ors to catch a train back home.
Up to the fifth there was nothing do
ing on either side that had an appear
ance of a run, the Harbors not even
getting a man to first base. In the
fifth the Greeleys succeeded in getting
a man on second and another on third
with two out, when Girard tossed the
ball back to Ford, who carelessly al
lowed 1t to bounce out of his hand
and it rolled slowly toward second.
The man on third made wild dash for
home and succeeded in landing there
safely before the ball was returned.
That ended the run getting of the Wis
itors, but it looked like a plenty, for 1t
was not until the eighth that the To-
Gals were able to get a man across the
home plate. This latter event happened
something in this way: Erickson made
a clean single and was perched on first
when Junior Calvin stepped stepped up
to the plate and clouted the ball into
