the day one grand jubilee, and one
not to be soon forgotten by the citi-
Gems of the town. Mayor Haussling
did his part, as usual and pitched the
first ball in the final ball game. New
ark has much to be proud of, and
those who worked so hard on the
three committees constituted by the
Board of Works will never get all the
praise all the credit, that is coming
to them. Let us all be satisfied,
that the result was most satisfac-
tory.
College football came in big on Sat-
urday and the big teams got going in
earnest. The big Four" won their
games. of course, but one of them
Princeton, was scored on. OF the
others. Yale beat Holy Cross, 10 to o.;
Harvard beat Maine, "a to 0, and
Pennsylvania beat Gettysburg. So to O.
Princeton, in her game, led Rutgers
the way, by IA to 8. The games bore
evidence that play is to be exception
ally fast this year and that speed is
sure to have a telling effect on the
outcome of the big games. Weight
and strength and pluck, of course,
will cut the usual figure.
G
Princeton had a pretty hard game
with R,,toora ool ya1a l,od har. oxvn
troubles with Holy Cross. Harvard,
though, fairly swamped Maine and
Pennsy laid Gettysburg low with one
of the largest SCORES of the day. Out
of the games came considerable to
criticise, considerable to commend. The
game, for one thing, appears to be
more interesting than in the past few
years. The open play is very spectac-
ular and the close play affords an OPP
portunity for the strong and agrees
sive team to show to advantage. AS a
starter, the scores in nearly all of the
contests have been on the large side,
with the victors in most cases blank
ing the losers. That would seem to
indicate that when the big fellows
meet that small scores all around and
no scores perhaps will predominant.
@
Newark baseball fans will be in
terested in the following praises of
Joe Agler, once our Joe, written by
a scribe in Atlanta, where Agler
played all last season:
Joe Agler who has been sold to
Jersey City for $4,000 before the sea-
sons close, and who, rumor has it, is
slated for a crack at the first job
under Frank Chance, escaped the
draft, though it is said Detroit fa-
vorably considered him and would
have claimed him from Jersey City
but for political reasons. Agler can
hold his own with the best of 'em in
getting his left mitt in the way of
an infielder's bum heave, and his
brilliant fielding reminds one of Hal
Chase every day in the week. The
Cracker is fast as chain lightning,

WESTERNER MAY
PURCHASE TIGERS
Jack Hendricks0n, of Denver
Club, in East to Invest
Capital.
ALSO INTERESTED in BISONS

Jack Hendrickson, for two seasons
successful manager and part owner
OF the Denver Club of the Western
League, is interested in the reports
about the Newark club being for sale.
Hendrickson is in New York and paid
visit to Charles H. Ebbets, the
Brooklyn magnate to discuss the pos
sibility of purchasing some of the
local clubs stock Saturday. He came
East with some capital to be invest
ed by Jack McGill. part owner of the
Denver club. They first visited the
American Association, but could get
nothing that they wanted in that cir.
cult.
Hendrickson will probably visit
Buffalo and Providence before making
any decision about investing. The re-
port has been circulated that Jacob
Stein, of the Buffalo club, is ready to
retire and wants to sell out. The
Westerner may take over STEMS
stock or he may relieve the Detroit
owners Of the Providence club.
Hendrickson has won two pennants
for Denver, being a manager as well
as magnate. He would like to come
to Newark if he could get the con-
trolling shares at reasonable figure,
but will investigate the other two
clubs mentioned above before taking
any action.

Newark, all in ALL did well in her
pennant celebration and her pennant
contribution to the home team. She
turned out strong on Saturday at the
ball park to see the games and to see
the stunts, and she gave in the
wealth OF the realm a sum more than
81, 500. Along the line of march that
took in the principal thoroughfares of
the city Newark saluted, cheered and
sang the praises of her ball team.
She could have done more, and per-
haps her business men might have
done more, but what was done was
done in such an enthusiastic and will
ing manner that no one can have
grumble to make or kick to offer. In
every way Newark can well feel
proud, and the club-owners should be
delighted and the players should be
thankful, which in every sense they
no doubt are.
O.
Just how much the boys will re-
ceiye as a result of the various bene-
fit affairs arranged for will not be
known until the work in hand is out.
So far more than $4,000 can be ac-
counted for. The receipts of the ball
game on Saturday were $2,045, con-
tributions received by the Board of
Trade were something over $1,000, OF
which something like $1,000 will go
toward the gold medals for the
players and the other natural ex-
penses, the club-owners gave $1,000,
and from a basketball game, dance,
the exhibition game with the Wash
ingtons yesterday will come in the
neighborhood of $780, So, Newark
citizens and Newark fans, you can
rest assured that you have not done
poorly by your championship base
ball team, at any rate.
G
The various exhibitions at the ball
park on Saturday were most inter-
esting. Both the ball games, the one
between the picked team of the Man
ufacturers' League and the All-Stars
of the semi-pro ranks, in ending in
tie after six innings, necessitated the
selection of an all-star team from
the two aggregations. AS the game
that followed with the Newark cham
pions was also a tie, the baseball end
of the program proved to be a re-
sultless feature. AS to the other
stunts. though, there was much to
please. Perhaps the shadow base
ball game" given on the diamond by
the members of the Newark team,
led the show, but if so. James j. Cor
bett, actor-pugilist, in auctioneering
off the ball and the bat that had to
do with the Tigers clinching the pen
nant, was a decidedly close second.
The shadow act produced much mer-
riment and merited great applause,
and Corbett did so well as an auc-
tioneer that he kept the crowd in
laughter and incidentally weaned $50
from Frank Million, the cycling pro-
moter. in exchange for the historic
bat and ball. The running events
and the batting event produced keen
interest. and the presentation of the
medals to the players, done in such
an effective manner. and preceded by
a brilliant speech by Commissioner
Charles P. Gillen, all tended to make
