ONE-HIT NO. run GAME
SWENSON THE PITCHER
MOTistOwn A. A. Defeats the
Farmer B. B. c., Brooklyn.

Walter Swenson was working nicely
against the Farmer B. B. c. Saturday
and pitched a one-hit no-run game
while his colleagues of the Morris
town A. A. amassed a total of seven
tallies for his side of the score book
The farmers came up instead of
| the Hanover f. c., which was booked
They played good ball but could do
nothing with Swenson. Their one hit
was not secured until the seventh
inning when Eibel drove a hot one
through the box that neither Sven
son nor Speary were able to touch.
Taylor, who pitched for the Brightons
against Morristown early in the sea
son, twirled for the Brooklyn boys.
The locals threatened every inning
they did not score. The runs were
made in the last four innings.
In the firth Morgan got a life when
W. Conrad made poor throw of his
grounder to first base Morgan
promptly stole second and went to
third when Taylor threw the ball to
center field in an attempt to gel
Morgan mapping, no one covering the
bag. After Collins famed Swenson
poked out a single that scored Nor
gan, going to second on the play OF
the ball to the plate and scoring on
Doyle's base hit.
Speary started the next stanza with
a wallop for a base, going to second
on I1illock's out Enzmann then
poled out three-bagger, scoring
Speary and tallying himself on Lacey s
single. With one down in the sev-
enth Swenson, by fast base running,
stretched a single into a two bagger,
aided by slow fielding and scored on
Captain Doyle's single.
Speary negotiated the first of a
brace of tallies in the eighth, his mi
tial momentum being a twobagger.
Hfllock singled, scoring Speary, and
the second sacker promptly purloined
the middle station. Enzmann banged
out his third hit of the game, scoring
Hillock
The locals had their batting eyes
with them. Enzmann got triple, a
double and single Doyle three one
base swats and Speary two-bagger
and two singles. Lacey and Sven
son each got two hits.
The box score:-

in 48 Banks.

Washington, Jan. Through the
practical institution of the postal saw
ings bank system on Tuesday, the
United States government will give
the people facilities for saving a part

be made. No passbooks will be fur
nished the depositors but all deposits
will be evidenced by engraved postal
savings certificates, issued in fixed de-
nominations Of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and so
dollars, each bearing the name of the
depositor and the date on which inter
est begins to accure. The certificates
are nontransferable and nonnegotiable.
Interest viii be payable annually at
the rate Of percent per annum
BY the terms of the law no account of
less than one dollar may be opened.
and no person may deposit more
than 500 in an calendar month
or have TO his credit at any
time more than $500 exclusive of
accumulated interest Accounts may
be opened by any person over 10 years
IN his or her own name and by married
women in their own names The ac-
counts Of wives cannot be interfered
with or controlled by the husbands.
Among the postoffices designed by
