BASE BALL

In very interesting ball game playtd d
on the locol grounds Saturday afternoon,
between the home team and Smyrna, the
newly organized club was defeated by
the score OF 6 to 3. Neither team scored
until the fifth inning, when the home
team made several bad blunders and the
visitors piled up four runs. Richards
pitched a good game, and with plenty
of practice the new team could play a
good game, and now that they have Sc
cured grounds and got new uniforms, anG
other equipment they should get down to
real work, Saturdays score follows.
Smyrna. 0 0 0 0-6
Middletown............0 0 0 90 0 2 O-3
The poor skins of our local ball team
have been so often and soundly tanned
by visitors that the public had begun to
think that that result was one of the
Inevitable concomitants Of the ball tossing
art IN this vicinity.
And Wednesdays game came as all
the bigger surprise when alter really
well played contest our town players
neatly trimmed the Odessa nine to the
decisive tune OF 8 to 2. This still leaves
Odessa far ahead in wallops administered
our boys. Mr. Scarborough for the Mid
dletown team had 3, and Mr.. Wallace for
the Odessa team s, strike outs. two base
hits, King, Donovan, Gibbs and Gren.-

cream was one to be remembered! Every
body had delightfully."- miserable time,
for it was duck weather in all directions
the grub was ruined; about half the
youngsters missed their treat; the straw
in the wagons Waa floating around, and
nearly all lands got wet there or on the
way home.
They do say the storm, like politics,
made some queer mix ups; for instance
when the preacher and a delegation Of
white nbboners, found refuge in
an apartment customarily devoted to the
worship of Gambrinus. OF course they
were not after any "wet good" s"-they
already had all the wet goods they needt d.
The festive goat was kept out of sight
during their stay, and the thirsty
devotees fought shy of their customary
"boCk."
AS usual on all occasions of great peril,
it was the heroic women that rushed to
fill ''the deadly and imminent breach" e.
&. standing for half hour out in the
mud amid the downpour, covering up
the endangered grub. while their heart
sss better halves stood fearfully looking
on from some dry retreat or other-ready
of course, later on to finish Saving" the
stuff.
But you should have seen the moist,
bedraggeled crowd that gloomily, ,as quiet
as mice, drove into town about sunset!
Some one says they resembled so many
half drowned rats-or, as another chap
Gays looked like a rather poor lot OF foreign
immigrants landed at Castle Gardenl
"But it was a great victoryP' We suggest
since this sort of thing is to be a yearly
feature, that all lands go prepared for
their rain bath by attIring themselves in
their swimming togs; the result would in
sure against spoiled garments and tenn
pers and also, add picturesqueness to
the scene!
