BUT SLIGHT CHANGE IN
The RACE FOR PENNANT

The fourth week Of the Peninsula Lea
que season, which ended on Wednesday
found the positions of the teams exactly
the same as they stood at the endof last
week Salisbury, the leaders. is the only
team which has shown any loss in per-
centage while Cambridge has added 70
its percentage percebtably. Milford and
Seaford have also advanced slightly in
percentage. Seaford has strengthened
its team greatly since last week, and IN
the past few days has been winning a
good percentage of the games played.
The other teams of the league are play
ing practically the same players.
Milford is drawing more people to its
games than any other team in the lea
que, and the fans generally are well
pleased with the playing Of the team
the hackers Of the Milford boys are
looking for things to shape themselves
so that the pennant viii be brought mere
this year. Seaford and Milford have
played their whole schedule to date, but
both Salisbury and Cambridge have
games to make up. This will aid ma :
terially for the Delaware teams. should
the race be close at the finish; AS the
Chronicle goes to press Thursday after
nOon) the Milford boys are playing cam
bridge at Cambridge, while Seatord IS
fighting il out with Salisbury. should
the two Delaware teams take these Two
games from the Marylanders the race will
tighten up materially. Today Salisbury
plays at Milford, and tomorrow Cam
bridge is here. The winnig OF these Two
games by the home team will play havoc
with the lead Of the teams from our SIS
ter state. At the present time the MIL
ford team is playing better ball than any
team in the league, and all indications
point TO the continuance OF that klhu OF
1t is more than likely that the fans
will see a new umpire holding the lndl-
Gator al today's game. Bill McGoWah'
who has proven so unpopular with the
nf,an IN Milford
has failed to make his appearance tol-
lowing the game of Monday. at Sahsputy,
which he umpired. At that time the
Milford boys claimed raw zeal from
him He refused to ride home with them
He was to have appeared IN MILFORD at
Tuesdays game, but he umpreu elsS
where new man has been secured.
MCGOWAN is a good ump, but this season
tbe fans claim that he seems to be badly
affected with a case of 'sWeled heau;
He has been very unpopular since carry
in the season, and the substitution OF q
new umpire will meet with the seheidl
approval of the fans
The games next week will be played IN
Milford on Tuesday, Thursday and Fri
day. Seaford. Cambridge and Salisbury
will play in the order named.

A MANS BODY FOUND
ALONG The BAYSHORE

The body Of man was found laying
along the shore at Fowler's Beach last
Friday morning. A stickpin bearing the
initials "R II NJ" " together with a ring
were the only clues to the Identification
Of the man. The coroner Of the county
was notified and went to the Fowlers'
Beach, where an inquest was held. Fol-
lowing this the body was taken in charge
by s. j. Wilson, of Milton, and interment
was made at the Presbyterian cemetery
in that town. Following the burial, no
tice was received from Lewes that
the body was possibly that Of Ross
H. Morris who had left Philadelphia for
Lewes on a boat a few days before. His
wife went to Milton, had the body disin-
tered. and recognized IL as that Of her
husband. The remains were taken to
Lewes where funeral services were held.
1t Is supposed that Morris fell from the
steamer while IL was passing Fowlers
Beach.
