DANv|LLE LICKED
BY EDGEW00D PARK
FoUR.coUNTY LEAGUE STANDING

Danville had the rather unique ex-
perience of getting licked yesterday at
Shamokin, the Edgewood Park team,
recently acquired by the Susquehanna
league, neatly completing the job.
Seven to three.
1t was the Park boys initial per-
formance in Susquehanna circles and
they celebrated the event by doleing
out a spanking to their old friend,
"Lizzie" Brennan, who occupied the
mound for the Danville contingency
for the first four and two-thirds in
nings
Brennan was given the reins yester-
day by Manager Hoffman in the hope
that he could duplicate his perform
ance of several weeks ago, when he
pitched Shamokin to defeat at the
Edgewood Park grounds. But Shamok-
in had their batting clothes On yester-
day, and Jimmie did not have the gilt
edged support that sustained him on
the former occasion. In the fourth he
tried to stop live wire from the bat
of First Sacker Bowers, and got a
whack that benched him.
Shawkey was on the mound for Sha-
mokin and held Danville to six scatter
ed hits.
One of Danville's safe swats came
from the bat of Umlauf first man up
for Danville in the first innings. 1t
was two bagger over first, Liven-
good sacrificed Buck to third and
he scored on.Burke's error of Nipples S
grounder.
Danville got two more in the third.
Brennan hit through the infeld and
Umlauf drew pass. Livengood sacri-
feed them both ahead. Nipple then
drove hot ore at Carr, who in his
hurry to cut Brannan off at the plate,
lost the ball while two runners talli-
ed. After that Shamokin frightened up
and left Danville scoreless.
The game was rather devoid of feat
u1es outside of several neat double
plays. Bowers four hits in four times
at bat took first honors in swatting.
The Edgewood Park team will play
here this afternoon at O'Clock

A POPULAR
PICNIC GROUND

This is the month of picnics. True
there were picnics last month and
there will be picnics next month but
the present seems to be the generally
accepted time for throwing aside all
care for at least day and spending
the day in the woods,
DeWitt's park grows more popular
every year. While there may be parks
in this section with more buildings
given over to amusement, it is safe TO
say that in the beauties of its natura
scenery none can excel the park on the
south side. The public realizes this
fact and every year more organiza-
tions and families are selecting this
popular resort for their picnics.
The park this season is under the
able management OF w. O. Dewitt, of
Bloomsbury. Mr.. Dewitt has his sum
mer home at the park and is doing his
best to see that his patrons are pleas
ed.
A feature that has added much to
the attactiveness of the park is the in
stallation of electric lights, about one
hundred and fifty in number in the
pavilion, cook room, eating tent and
throughout the park. The lights are
of ten and sixteen candle power.
Then, too, there is the we'll kept
base ball ground, the merry -go-round.
the swings and abundant facilities for
taking care of the horses.
A list of the picnics dates filed up
to the present, follows:

100000 INSURANCE
PAID IN BENTON

The loss of Benton, suffered in the
fire of July 4th, has been all adjusted
and yesterday saw the completion of
the work.
a force of nine adjusters have been
engaged in the work for the past few
days. On Tuesday the work of adjust
ing the loss of the Peoples Store COM
pany was completed. The insurance
on their stock amounted to $40,
and 81, 900 on the fixtures and this
was paid in full as was the loss on the
store building, owned by the McHen'
ry estate and upon which the insur-
ance was about 81, 000 The postof1ice
building loss was also adjusted, as in
fact were about all the losses on the
business places. Daniel Donovan got
insurance to the amount of IS, 900 on
his hotel and 81, 300 on the contents.
Forty-tiye companies were repre-
sented in the losses and the largest
loss sustained by any one company
was about $40, 600. The total amount
of insurance that will be paid out to
Bentonians will be 500, 600, with this
representing about half the loss sus-
tanned. The indirect loss will, how
ever, amount to thousands of dollars
and there is no doubt but that the fire
will mean a loss eventually even in
excess of $500, 600, the figures first set.
