BOOST RIGHT THIS TIME.

The Booster Day plans fell rather
short of the mark hoped for by the
directors of the local club and a call
for more funds was issued this morn
ing after a conference at the CONNER
cial club. Less than 800 tickets were
sold on the 81 plan, principally be-
cause there was not enough effort
put forth by those who had the SELL
ing I'm charge.
Now Portsmouth will be here for
four days and the tickets will be
honored at any of the games so the
sale Will continue and everyone is
urged TO help out baseball in this
crisis for Ii is really the greatest
crisis of the season. If Marion is to
have baseball here next year every
fan must come forward and do his
share toward helping the club out OF
its financial difficulties. AT least
1000 of the Booster tickets should
have been sold for the Lima series
but only 900 bought them. Now, Mr..
Fan, 1t is up TO you.
In the four days that Portsmouth
plays here there Will be six games
pulled off. Double headers will be
on Wednesday and Thursday and IL
these occasions. On Friday the last
game that will be played here this
year, 1t will be Farrell Day and ev-
cry loyal fan, who appreciates the
good work Farrell has done for Ma,
rion In the past three years should
turn out and say good bye to a play
er who should make his mark in the
big league. It will be the last time
Red Farrell will ever play in a Class
ID league and a last chance for Ma
rion fans to see him In action.
There will be a meeting tonight for
the club directors and officers, fans
and all those interested in baseball
are urged TO attend. 1t will be held
at the Commercial club at 1880
O'Clock. Plans for getting the tick
cts circulated in all parts of the city
and a systematic arrangement viii be
perfected. Even IL you have bought
one ticket 1t will not hurt to buy
another and help the thing along.
If you have not already bought now
you must buy this time. Be sure
and attend tonight's meeting.

THE SECOND GAME.

Hancock and Joe Stoup were the
selections In the second game and
both pitched magnificent ball. Han
cocks first pass resulted in a run
for the callers and likewise Dick
Staley who was the only Digger al

made the circuit eventually.

All the Digger scoring came in the
first. With Behringer retired, Wolfe
hit safely and Zmich struck out.
Staley was ribbed and when Newn-
ham fumbled Farreirs grounder the
bricks were all occupied. Reilly drove
in Wolfe and StaIey and won the
game with a single to center. Three
more chances had the locals to score
but each went glimmering because
of the mighty fine play behind Stoup
in times of trouble.

THE SECOND GAME.

Though Lewis had worked but the
day before the manager was confident
that he could turn back the LEADERS
and he had plenty enough to do 1t
and would have done 1t probably but
for the failure to his support to even
put up fair article OF baseball. Gen
orally the Diggre hitting Is light
enough behind Lewis but the fielding
is excellent. This time the fielding
was miserable and the hitting such
that 1t could not overcome stupid
baserunning and the havoc wrought
by plays of the rankest kind imagin-
able Munk, for Lima, was In fair
form, got away lucky and received
flawless support.
Making the first run OF the game
was easy for Lima in the second
round. Behringer's boot let Sykes get
on and Miller sacrificed Lewis con-
tributed wild pitch and with Newn-
ham up the squeeze did the rest. La
Rue walked after Reilly had muffed
his pop foul whereupon Johns singled.
Lewis then pulled himself together
and breezed Munk.
Lima added a pair In the third.
Fink singled and when Corbin hunted
Lewis threw to second to head OFF
Fink but the peg was trifle late
and both were safe. Snyder sacrificed
and Sykes hit to Wolfe who booted
the ball into right field. Sykes

Wolfe recovered the ball and while
walking meditatively back toward sec
ond allowed Corbin to sneak back
in from third. Behringer added to
the general agony by fumbling Mil
ler's drive. Newman struck out
Only once was the local scoring
machine brought into alton. That
was in the third when with a pair
down Wolfe duobled to right and Will
llams followed suit sending him in.
Staley hit safely past LaRue and Will
liams went to third. He turned to-
ward home aud Newnham who had
recovered the bali kept him from
returning. He was run down on the
lines. LaRue's spike cutting his arm
as the ex-Digger fell over him. Will
liams injury was such that he had to
retire in the next inning and Zmich
took his place.
BY way of making it safer for
Munk In case Digger rally hitting
should threaten, Corbin lifted the
pill over the right field barrier in the
fifth and the scoring machines were
both idle during the remainder OF
the seven inning fray or fizzle, which
ever you will.

Both OF those contests of Satur-
day We're weird AFFAIRS OF the sort
that might fill insane asylums' with
fans and the occasion was the more
doleful because Diggers were the one
guilty of baseball misdemeanors some

Second Congregational Church Take Informal Ballot
Following Discusson-Mt Pleasant Chapel Fund Report

Pursuant to notice TO the members
OF the church and ecclesiastical society.
there was a large attendance at the
midweek meeting OF the Second Con-
gregational church on Thursday even
ing for the purpose Of hearing a report
by W. S. Allis relative to the Mt.
Pleasant chapel fund, so-called, which
ne was authorized to look up at pre-
vious meeting.
J. d. Haviland, chairman OF the So
ciety committee, presided over the
meeting of the society, which was held
first, and DR.. West presided at the
church meeting.
w. 5. Allis in his report stated that
there are but two Of the contributors
TO the fund for the chapel who are
living-Charles Bard ofathis city and
Mr.. Huntington OF New York. The list
OF donors to the fund does not exist
as far as known, but through the mem
DRY of some OF the members a partial
list has been secured. Mr.. Bard con-
trfbuted $25 for bell, and that Is the
only amount of any contribution
known.
Land upon which the chapel was
erected was given for the purpose and
the chapel constructed by the contri-
buttons, mostly of Second church mem
bers, although there were a few out
side contributors. The chapel burned
and the insurance money some $500,
was left in trust with the deacons of
the Second church. It was placed in
the Chelsea Savings bank and has re-
manned there for the past thirty eight
years, SO that 1t now amounts to
$2614.S4. The land on which the chapel
stood reverted to the donors and was
sold to Trinity Episcopal church and
they erected q chapel there which in
1902 was sold to Grace Memorial Bap-
fist church.
Since the chapel burned Park Con-
gregational church was organized by
members who left the Second church.
There is a question as to whether
the bank would pay over the money to
the deacCns Of the church and likewise
whether the deacons would want to de-
eide what should be done with the
money end also there is a question as
to whether heirs Of the contributors
would or could claim a part Of the
fund. The same trouble exists regard
ing what use can he made of the fund.
Mr.. Allis suggested that 1t could be
taken to the courts by the bank, mas
much as The hanks are very careful to
protect themselves when there may be
more than one claimant, on an inter
pleader, and by a friendly suit have
the court determine the matter and
what use can be made OF the fund
The report Of Mr.. Allis was accepted
by both the society and the church
with thanks and the society authorized
the society committee and the church
authorized the deacons to take such
necessary steps as would be required
to learn whom the fund can be paid to
and for what it can be used
