MAKES REPLY no ST. PETERS.

Sporting Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL:-DearS Sir: In one of the
recent daily papers a piece appeared
stating that St Aloysius had charg-
ed that St. Aloysius had charged st.
Peters of New Castle with misrep-
resepting the age of their team. St.
Aloysius wishes to correct this as
they knew nothing of the origin of It.
As St. Peters stated. We had played
them three games before this and
knew exactly who we were going to
meet and consequently we were not
justified IN making such a charge.
But they also added We acted as chill
dren.f All that we can say in regard
to this is that we cannot recall one
game that St. Peters have played
away from their own grounds, and
when st. Aloysius asked for a return
game in Wilmington they refused for
the simple reason that their play
ers could not spare the time. This
certainly seems childlike for St.
Peters. Expressing our regrets that
this article appeared, we remain yours
in sport,
st. Aloysius, c. c..

SOME BALL GAME
OVER THE RIVER

The natives Of Paulsboro and
Pennsgrove are considerably agitated
over the game of ball that is to be
pulled off on next Saturday at Penns-
grove between teams representing
the two towns. Every year the riv-
airy seems to grow keener between
these two teams, which are very
evenly matched. This is demonstrated
in every game they play. and in one
Of their previous games they played
twenty innings with a score Of l to 1,
and the game had to be called on ac-
count Of darkness.
1t is needless to say there will be
an outpouring of the Pausboro fans,
and standing room on the regular
trains coming into Pennsgrove will
be at a premium and Pennsgrove resi-
dents will forget work and household
duties for the time being and will
whoop It up for their favorites. They
are also counting on the support OF
the Wilmingtonians who patronize the
Jersey resort to help in the big noise
they expect to make for Pennsgrove.
Pennsgrove Is open for any mid
week game with any good team who
will care to tackle them.

line-ups on the field and Watts. the
star slab artist Of the local club. will
endeavor TO hold the champions down

Goven, second base; Holmes. third
base; Smith, first base: Swigett,
short stop: Walker. centre field /;
Watts, pitcher; German. left field ;
Shorts. catcher. and Carter, right

LOCOMOBILE HAS RECORD.
New York Owned Car Has Been Driv-
en- More Than $4,000 Miles.

It is nothing unusual nowadays to
hear Of some enthusiastic automobilist
who has toured twenty-five thousand
miles, and there are many who have
covered even this and greater mileage
in one season. It is, however, some
thing very uncommon for one automo-
bile to be driven over twenty-five
thousand miles in one year by twenty
five thousand different drivers. There
is a car in New York which holds such
a record-never equalled before. II is
the Locomobile which was selected by
Chief Examiner F. H. Elliott, Of the
State Automobile Department for the
testing out of applicants for chauf-
eurs' and drivers licenses.
The wisdom of the tSate Ofhcers in
selecting the "30' Locomobile has
been justified in more ways than one.
This car has never been overhauled,
and outside of simple adjustments
and replenishing with oil and gasoline,
has never been out Of service since
II was purchased by Secretary Of
State Samuel S. Koenig, about a year
ago.
It is doubtful If any other automo-
bile has had the traffic. strain, wear
and tear, which the Locomobile has
had in its service during the past year,
and its condition today is a splendid
tribute to It's designer and builder,
who sold the car to the State of New
York unsolicited. the car having been
selected after weeks of careful study
and testing among half dozen other
well-known makes of American cars.
