dress by Rev. George Kane, of the
Presbyterian church; address by
Rev. Thomas Neal, Jr., of the Baptist
church; address by Secretary F. s.
Deacon, of the Y. M. c. A. followed
by short presentation address by
r. P. Mason, Sr., In which as token
or remembrance in behalf of mem
bers of his congregation, he present
ed the retiring pastor a handsome
diamond stick pin to which Pastor
Miller responded with thanks and
urging up his late congregation to
stand by their new pastor as they
had by him during the past five
years. At the close of these remarks
those assembled partook of refresh
ments, that had been prepared by the
Ladies Aid Society. This gathering
and demonstration was something
unusual in honoring retiring pastor
changing to new field of labor.

NOTES OF THE GAME.

Washington gave a good exhibition Of
consecutive hitting in the sixth. wher
three runs were scored. With one out
| O'Neill dropped a foul tip which would
have been a third strike on Foster. The
latter got base on balls, and hits were
made in succession by Milan, Gandil
Morgan, and Shanks
Everybody was relieved when Mcbride

the last out, there being two on bases al
the time.
Shanks' throw came near catching

ming.
Lajoie drove a terrific smash to left in
the eighth which looked like a homer
when it started, but fell foul.
Milan made a good catch of Johnston
in the seventh. Clyde also had three hits
to his credit, stole third in the eighth,
and came all the way around when the
pitch got by oNeill
Only four hits were made of Hughes
and two of these came in the eighth.
Luckily, Turner and Olson were the
victims of a double play on the latter
smash to Foster. The visitors kicking on
the decision as to Olson was natural. as
the ball and the runner arrived at first
about the same time. Jackson's hit i'm
mediately after did no damage.
Leltvelt as an emergency batter came
through with a hit for two bases in the
ninth, but he was left stranded.

logged out IN immaculate white in honor
