Reunion OF purnelI Legion.

The reunion of Company E. Purnell
Legion, and Shows Battery, held at
Perryville last Saturday was well attended
although the veterans formed the smallest
part at the roll call of Company E, ID
out of possible IoI who went out so
years ago answering to their names.
Last year the report showed possible ~
living, three Of whom died the past year,
leaving now ID. Hence a few short years
more and all will have been finally mus
tered out and passed to their reward.
The report of the Battery showed about
the same proportion of loss. After the
business of the meeting was disposed of
adjournment was taken for dinner, which
had been supplied by the church workers.
when about 100 were fed on the good
things prepared.
Reassembling at 1890 o'clock the
speech making and reminiscent talks
were made by several. Major Fulton, of
Oxford, formerly of Company E, was in
troduced and gave quite an interesting
talk on the formation of the Company
fifty years ago. and the good work of
the Company and regiment done for the
cause of the Union. w. T. Warburton,
Esq, of Elkton, was then introduced and
spoke feelingly on trials and sufferings OF
the boys who left this, his native county,
and the final triumph of the Union army
and restoration of peace. Some excellent
talks were made by ]. T. Alexander. c.
A. Benjamin and others of Company E.
who were listened to with marked atten-
ton. Adjournment was then taken to
meet at same place Sept. II. 1919.

ing them both. one above the knee and
the other above the ankle.
The unfortunate young man was placed
upon through train and taken to the
Mercy hospital, in Baltimore, by DR..

surgican aid was rendered, and despite
the terrible nature of his injuries he is
resting quietly with every prospect that
his life will be spared.
The sympathy of this community is
extended to Mr.. Kirk and the family in

Elk Mills took -Ef1ng's measure at the start
in the game on Saturday and batted out a
victory. The first four men to face him hit
safely, scoring three earned runs and practi.
cally settling the game. A base on balls and
safe drive in second resulted in another run
and two more came in the fourth by single,
aibatter hit by pitched ball and q misjudged
fly that went for two bases. Taylor replaced
Effing in the fifth inning and was invinclble,
not an Elk Mills batter reaching first there
after, the first six to face him striking out
successively.
Wilson, for Elk Mills. pitched asuperb game,
keeping the hits SO well scattered that one run
was the best Rising Sun could do in the entire
nine innings. In. addition to pitching well,
Wilson f1elded his position in good style,
having four assists to first. Reynolds at
second also played fine game, as did the en-
tire Elk Mills team. Kirk, Jenkins and
Reeder' carried off the fielding honors for
Rising Sun.
With the pennant almost in their grasp
Rising Sun by their defeat saw the trophy go
again to Hartford county. Aberdeen winning
the coveted prize.

ABERDEEN WINS pENNANT.
Rising Sun, Elk Mills and Elkton
Tied For Second Place.
STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

The Tri-County League season ended
with Saturdays games. The race for the
pennant has been an exciting one all the
way, the winner being in doubt up to the
very last, Aberdeen finally landing the
prize by good, clean ball playing, and the
attempt that is being made by Elk Mills
and Elkton to claim tie for first place
shows the type OF ''sport" the manage
ment of these teams believe in.
At meeting of the League held on
September II among the matters dis
cussed was a tie game pl syed by Rising
Sun and Havre de Grace, that the former
was anxious to have played off, but which
Havre de Grace refused to consent to, and
was sustained by vote of the league. the
game being thrown out entirely.
1t SO happened that shortly after this
Elkton and Oxford played tie game.
and when the latter club refused to play
off the tie Elkton promptly claimed the
game by forfeiture, despite the fact that
it had been one Of the clubs to vote that
ties could not be played of, ff,-and placed
the game to their credit. They are past
masters at wire-pulling at the county seat,
but not at base ball, as they never yet
have had a pennant winning team there.
Elk Mills, too, voted that ties should
not be played off, but when one fell to
their lot with Havre de Grace, date was
set by the two teams and the game play
ed without the knowledge or sanction of
the League President. 1t was won by
Elk Mills and placed by them to their
credit in the percentage column. Thus it
lis by these questionable means Elkton
and Elk Mills arc endeavoring to bolster
up their per centage and claim tie with
Aberdeen. which has won the pennant
fairly and without resort to any despic-
able tricks or wire-pulling, and is not only
entitled to, but is receiving the support Of
every true lover of clean sport in their
claim to the title.

Proving 10 be one of those lovable.
likable. yet indefinable something's
which manage to grip and hold. "Bev-
erly," dramatized from George Barr
McCutcheon's novel, Beverly. of Grau-
stark" which was presented at the
Bijou last. night. more than satisfied
the usual first night audience at that
playhouse.
You might call Beverly" a romantic
drama, and again you might call it
pure melodrama. or you might say
that il was comedy, while another
time tragedy would suggest itself
And, indeed. YOU would be right in
every instance, for. as a matter of
fact, Beverly is all of these things
combined, yet combined so pleasantly
that one forgets the tragedy of it all,
OF the melodramatic moments, in con-
mplation Of the whole, so rapid is
the transition from tears to laughter,
and from awe to smiles.
Indeed, Beverly herself is so en-
trancing, is cleverly portrayed by
Irene Warfield, that anything which
the book girl might say or do would
be pleasing. And one cannot think of
Beverly without thinking of her old
negro mammy, which, done by Lillian
Allen Devere. is one of the best bits of
charact witnessed here in
many a day.
Beverly Calhoun, a young woman of
Washington, D. c., travels all the way
from hera American home across the
seas to Graustark, chaperoned by her
NANNY" She is entertained by the
princes Of the foreign country, and
forth with falls in love with Baldos, a
mountaineer, who is in reality prince.
The action is fast, and there is always
something interesting either happen
ing or about to happen. The trials of
the lovers, the accusation brought
against Baldos, his sentence to be shot
as a traitor. and his final liberation in
the last act, when he and his Ameri-
can sweetheart pledge each others
love, all form part of the story.
The play is well acted. Not a sin
gle character but is in the hands of
some one who knows how Lawrence
Evart, as Baldos, afterwards Prince
Danton, has a pleasing stage presence
and a we'll modulated voice-just the
kind of voice to make an ideal stage
| lover That he fails in love with Irene
Warfield is by no means strange, for
/ she IL lnteeu SOou 10 lOOh upoil Anu
what a wonderfully clever little ac-
| tress she is. With all the wiles of the
soubrette, she nevertheless impresses
one more a sprightly ingenue, ready
with quip or gibe to take verbal ad-
| vantage. Altogether lovable, she cap
