PURITANS To
PLAY Ell CIDS
Will Journey to Railway for
Game Sunday.

Now that the Puritans have fully
recovered from their recent battle
with the Marions, they are ready to
clash with the E. Clds, of Railway
Sunday. The match will come off at
Railway and many fans from this
city will attend. The Puritans have
been looking up the record of the Ell
Cids and find they are a classy team.
They have had lots of experience
with the teams around the county
and have been successful in many of
their contests.
With the assistance of their new
pitcher they expect to bring things
down to a definite basis with the
score In their favor. The rumor that
Smith and Tom Egan would quit,
they claim, is untrue. These lads
have been doing good work on the
base line and Will continue along the
same lines. They were considering
giving up baseball but they thought
it would be better for them If they
remained on the team. The follow
ers Of the nine say they did the right
thing and they should never have en-
tertained such thoughts.
The locals will then have their en-
tire. lineup and will play ball like
they did the last eight innings of
last Sundays game. That was real
ball and that is what the fans like
to see. They promise to give the Ell
Cids a good time for their money
and they will be as good as their
word, according to present outlook.

Will TRAVEL
Meet MT. Loretto in Contest
for Blood.

The Maurer A. C. will journey
this week to Mt. Loretto, where they
will meet the fast representative
team of that place. The contest will
take place on Sunday at the Mt.
Loretto oval and a large crowd is
expected to attend the match. This
will be a star attraction for both
teams and a hard battle is looked
for. There is every reason to believe
that this will be n of the best
games of the season from every
point of view and both teams will
work hard for the victory.
The Maurer bunch has been put
ting the ball around the lot with vim
lately and they will play the game
this week in the anne snappy style.
They will have Scibenski on the slab
again for them and he is expected
to bring the Mt. Loretto boys to
their knees many times during the
nine rounds. Halbert will receive
and the pair are going to do some
work Sunday on the island.
The Mt. Loretto nine trimmed the
Iroquois, of this city, last week in
! good fashion and expect to do the
same to. the Maurer lads. The is
landers have had a winning streak
lately and have been producing the
real article. That the Maui
rers will have to travel some to
make the necessary runs to bring
back the bacon. They think they
can, however. and will try their best
to do SO when the mines clash on
Sunday.

Maybe Ltndaberg wasn't in the
Morgan game for the Danes. He
pelted the ball four times out of four
chances.
Apologize struck out Hartman
with the bases full last Saturday at
South Amboy. He'd have probably
walked if he hadn't struck at three
balls and failed to connect. Ooh, you
simple).
Even the South Amboy fans had
trouble with their arbitrator. Some
one suggested that he had better
take the l. C. s. course again. May
be it was because they were losing.
How about it, Mr.. Fan, you were
there.
Although the Danes were handi-
capped by the absence OF two play
ers they took the Morgan bunch into
camp in handy style Sunday.
After they got next TO the bake
last Sunday the Lincoln team lost
their batting eye. They thought the
game was off, so they went the limit.
The Bloomer Girls lost a twelve
inning game at the Highlands the
other day. They must know a thing
or two about the sport,

Joe Jeanette will be at the Lotos
Club Monday night. A large turnout
of members Will undoubtedly be
present to see him tackle Christie
Williams. Some class, Ell?
Probably very few know it, but
boxing was invented 1000 years ago
by Thesus, son of Aegus, king OF
Athens.
Joe Jeanette has fought Jack
Johnson. heavyweight champion OF
the world, at least seven times. His
last match with Johnson was on No
vember 20, 1906, at Portland, Me.
The ten-round battle was declared a
draw,
The rain came down In torrents.
Still she waited at the corner for
her tardy lover. The hour was wax
ing towards twelve. yet the stars and
the moon shone brightly, disclosing
her ragged costume and a pair of
suede pumps. Can I be of any as
sistance to you?" answered a benev-
client old gentleman on his way from
the club. In a voice that sounded
like a little child, the maiden re
sponded: IF I can row a boat,
canoe? lean 'oo).

CALLAHAN ON
PERTH AMB0YS
South Amboy 0utfieIder Has
Signed With Locals.

John Callahan, of South Amboy,
has been signed by the Perth Am
boys for the rest of the season. Cal
lahan is a classy outfelder and a
heavy hitter and with his assistance
the Perth AmbOys expect to toy with
their opponents. Sports who have
been following the boy up, say that
there are very few better in this vi
cinity, and the Perth Amboys were
lucky to secure him.
1t is likely that he will play with
the team this week and show up in
his real form. In connection with
being able to cover a lot of ground
in the field they claim he Is some bat
ter and will show up well with the
stick. A good batter Is always well
come and needed by every team. The
fans are interested in the lad and will
look after him in the coming games
which the Perth Amboys will play.

The only big teams from this city
who will play tomorrow, r the
Perth Amboys and the Danish So
cables and they will play out Of town
mines. There has not been a game
in this city on Saturday in some
time and perhaps the fans would
like to see one. The teams will
not book games in this city if they
can get out of it, simply for inan-
cial reasons.
The Perth Amboys will journey to
M%etuchen where they will meet their
old rivals, the Metuchen F. c. They
always handed it to the Metuchen
bunch in one contest and will try
their best to repeat the stunt.
Young Lefty" Hayes will probably
make his initial appearance in the
box for the Perth Amboys in this
game and he is expected to show
some classy form when he steps on
the slab for the locals this week The
rest of the team is also in good form
and they say that nothing can stop
them from getting another from the
Metuchenites.
The other lads are expected to put
up a good stiff fight because they
already let 4 go to the locals and
they want to redeem themselves in
some way. They will have the best
team they can get together and will
have it strengthened in every de-
partment. They claim the local lads
will be surprised some when they
see the form of their team this
week.
The game is being looked forward
to with much interest in this city
and it is likely that a large num-
Der of fans from this city will attend
the contest.
The Danish Sociables will meet
the fast Tottenville A. c. tomorrow
and they expect to play n of the
best games this season. Both teams
want to make this a good game and
want to win it in handy style. Both
mines are already claiming the game
and the only thing that will tell
which is the better nine as far as
baseball is concerned will be the
contest tomorrow.
The T|ottenville lads lost a fine
| game last week to the crack ALI

two games in succession. The fans
of the Island expect great things

Everything seems to point to a
first-class race tomorrow afternoon
when the third race in the Raritan
Yacht Club series will be run off
over the monument course at 2:30
o'clock. All entrants have expressed
themselves as being out for first
place, inspired by the fact that the
catboat, Tempest" which was
thought to be invincible, was beaten
in the last race by the elsie" from
Keyport. Each boat is being equipped
with balloon jibs and ~spinnakers, de-
termined to carry enough sail to
carry them over the line in front of
all the others.
A close race is expected between
the Elsie, Tempest and the Bole. The
Bole vas not in the ace last week,
owing to the captain being away on
a cruise up Long Island sound. He
expects to make the others step live
ly tomorrow. The Marguerite" of

Gibbons A Man
Among Men

The honor done to Cardinal GibS
bons in the oelebra ton in which tho
President OF the United States, the
ex President and the Chief Justice
participated was sincere tribute to-
him no less as broad minded and
patriotic American thanIas devoted
and revered pralate OF the Roman
Catholic Church. 1t is rare good
fortune both to the church and to
the patton that the man distinguished
as the only possessor in this country
of the highest ecclesiastical rank
under the Papacy should have been
80 distinctly identified with the ides
OF lihrralism in regard both to civil.
po'i,y and to religious attitude.
The spirit of Cardinal Gibbons is
not one Of mere tolerance for those
outside his own faith, but of true
humanity and eympaihy; in the couns
try at large, snd especially in his
own Immediate Community. he has
been strong irtluc,c' making for
the Maintaining ofn like spirit among
the people generally. After SO years
IN tho priesthood and Is years in the
cardlnalat", be is an impressive and,
dlgnitied figure and commands the.
