The game was inter- esting for the first three innings, then the Sodality team found Hook Dynon for several bingles and drove him to the woods after eight runs were cred ited to the Sodality team. De Barros who took Dynon's place was not much better as the Sodality had struck their stride by that time and piled up six more runs Bunk Walsh, the old time c. A. C. catcher had to go into the box for the Sodality team. the regular pitcher. Simcox, being called out of townover Sunday. Bunk did not have to work very hard as he had the Cut lery players at his mercy all during the game.
 Eddie Kirby, who jumped into the baseball world this season. played one of the incest fielding games in left field that has been seen on the Gran berry for many a day. Eddie was right on the job in the third when he nailed Charles at the plate when the latter was trying to score on a long fly to deep left, and also made two pretty singles out of four times up
 This makes the second victory for the Sodality team this season, with a victory over Yantic last Sunday. Man ager Tim Brennan would like to hear from all the fast teams in the eastern part of the state wishing to arrange games with the Sodality team.

AeEs-LoNe PERSECUTION.
Has Been the Experience of the Church of Christ-The Saviour Fore told the Reason-Sermon by Rev. J. II. Frederick.

Yesterday, the Sunday within the octave of the Ascension, the rector of St. Patrick's, Rev. John H. Broderick found his text in the gospel for the Sunday, John XIV. 26 XVI 4 These things have I spoken to you. that you may not be scandalized. They will put you out of the synagogues; yea, the hour cometh that whosoever killeth you will think that he doth a service to God And these things will they do to you, because they have not known the Father nor Me.
 The words of scripture had been fulfilled, he said, and throughout the ages Christ's church had been per secuted and for the very reason which the Saviour had given, because it's enemies knew not the Father nor Christ So it must be in the future; God will continue to be opposed by the devil, good will be ever at war with evil virtue ever in conflict with vice. The lesson pointed out was the obligations of loyalty and worthiness on the part of those who. through the church founded by Christ Himself, know Him and know the Father.
 The high mass was sung by Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly. who always in tones musicalIy and surely. The Veni rell and O Salutaris by William Good fellow.
 Rev. Father Frederick spoke to the congregation regarding a number of parish matters. especially a plan to se- cure funds for opening up the new cemetery by increased generosity in the annual census collection, to begin Rt Rev Bishop John J. Milan calling for the collection of Peters Pence which will be taken up in this diocese on Penteoost Sunday, May H.

NO MORE MONEY TO
 PAY TRAFFIC SQUAD.
Police Commissioners Have Been Com
 pelled to Call the Men In.

The police commissioners feel that there Is a real need for traffic officers at these two points. At the present rate of pay 1t would require an addi- ton of $1.S50 to the years appropria- ton to maintain two traffic officers, and should the proposed raise of 25 cents a day be made the expense for a year would amount to s2,20o. The res- olution increasing the pay of the off, cers was referred to the police com missioners, and has been referred back to the finance committee. which has decided to subtait the question te a city meeting.
