GERMANTOWN Wins
BY A BIC MARGIN
Touring Cricketers Defeat
Gentlemen of Liver
pool.

AIGBIRTH, via Liverpool, England,
August 19-By the margin of an innings
and 169 runs, the Germantown Cricket
Club overwhelmingly defeated the Gen
tlemen of Liverpool here yesterday. The
home teams batting was weak in the ex-
treme, as it made only III runs Thursday
on wicket that was all that could be
desired. and yesterday they were dis
missed for 96. This victory gives the
tourists record of five games won. two
lost and three drawn. All day intermit-
tent showers fell, but did not interfere
with the play at any time, although the
fielding was not up to the standard on
account of the slippery ball and the con-
dition of the ground.
Thursday Liverpool had been dismissed
for III in it's first attempt, and German
town had scored 364 for the loss of eight
wickets, included in which was a CEN
tury by T. C. Jordan and ~ by A. q.
Priestman. Resuming yesterday morning,
H. Z. Maxwell. not out over night with
25, opened with J. H. Savage, jr. The
latter scored eight, when he was bowled
by Smith, and j. p. Bretherton was
bowled before he had opened his account.
leaving Maxwell not out 30, and the in
nings closing for 3S2.
Batting second time, LlverpoOl open
ed with Bowling and Swift. The former
succumbed to a catch at the wicket by
Stewart off Savage before he had scored,
and Swift was sent back when his score
was j. Kirby and Johnson were dis
| missed for I and 3, respectively, and 1t
was not until Barnes came in that any
| kind Of q stand was made. He, in part
nership with J. Cunningham. carried the
| score from Is to 80 before the latter was
, caught by Maxwell o Savage for ?. no
| less than three-quarters of an hour being
| consumed in making his runs. With his
| dismissal, luncheon was taken. Barnes
| then being not out 80. Continuing after
| the interval, w. Cunningham again gave
| as good display as he had in the first
| innings. but lost Barnes when the latter
| had scored a well earned 40. Fraser.
Rimmer and Boucher were all dismissed
| quickly after catch by Pearson at mid
| on off Clark had disposed of Cunning
| ham for a good innings Of q, and with
| Smith not out 3, the total for the second
! innings was less of the century. 1t
was the easiest victory the tourists have
J gained since the inception of the tour.
/ Clark bowled very well in the second in
nings of Liverpool, his four wlckets cost
| ing him but 10 runs. Last night German

who resides or rather claims his resi-.

would keep him in confinement during
the winter months.
A young man In drunken condi.

above had stolen 1t. Squire Amos
sent the man up TO the Prosecuting
Attorney Tusca Morris for advice. and
he after a short while retfrned before
the squire and wanted TO get war
rant for the old man. Had the old
man been found guilty he would have
been sentenced for misdemeanor.
and failing to pay his fine would have
been confined in, jail for a few months
and in this way the old man would
have secured his winters board and
keep free OF charge. but the Squire
questioned the compliment closely
