ELLENUALE.

The Ladies' Aid Society OF the New Market
M E. Church, near Glendale. was entertained
at the home OF Mr. and Mrs Curtis Millman
on saturday evening, July Slst A most elab-
orate program was rendered by the members.
Because OF the absence Of me secretary, Miss
Anna Johnson, the reading OF the minutes OF
the previous meetings was omitted which
generally composed the most interesting part
Of the program. The roll was called by Miss
Mary W. Warren and a collection OF over three
dollars was realized from the members and
visitors At 10 oclock ali we're invited to the
spacious ard handsomely furnished dining
room and were seated at a large table loaded
with cake, bananas and lemonade. After all
had performed their duty 10 the good things
their hostess spread before them, they departed
20 their respective homes after thanking Mr..
and Mrs. Mulman for entertaining them so
highly, and all hope to meet there again IN
the near future.
Base ball seems 10 be the craze here now and
she most important news. Last Friday our
boys played the return game on their home
grounds for the Georgetown boys, who were
desperate, assuring the same complete trim
ming that they received here the previous
week and had sworn vengence TO shut Ellen
dale out but were not able 70 do so as the
Glendale boys scored one run and we're play
1ng iagainst big odds. even men from Cape
Alay and the jersey League aud two TIi-State
players from RehOboth and two from Dags-
boro, who hold strong reputation In the base
bail world. Well there is one more game to
play this coming Friday with the corceited
Georgetown gang and Will say to them that II
they will pick their nine from home we can
lick them to a standstill and that we cant play
against imported talent that costs $50 eacn for
a game, nor have we the means 20 procure such
players. Be honest aud play Us fair with the
home team and We will at least make things
interesting.
on Saturday last our boys accepted a game
with Milford aud played a hne game here,
and we found the men from Milford TO be gen
tlemen OF polished behavior aud they eadeav-
ored to act honestly. aud the result was most
exciting and hard fought game with a score
OF "A TO In favor OF Glendale. The Eilend dale
team returned the game at Milford on Wed
nesday and the score resulted In 4 TO IN favor
Of Milford.
Even the colered folks OF our town have be- /
come enthused with the base ball fever and
strong nine has been organized among them
and their efforts are quite creditable, and amer
some practice they will extend challenges to
Q
the State.
