NEWPORT SCORES
ITO VICTORY
/, OVER ISLAND POND
Border City Team Shows
Old "Pep" in Fast
Game

The Newport baseball team Tues
day afternoon broke the spell of de-
feat which has hung over the club
for the past few weeks by trouncing
the Island Pond aggregation on the
latter's grounds by score Of IL to
6. This victory which was attained
by heavy and timely hitting and
sharp fielding, has served to inlet
new life into the Newportites and the
local baseball fanatics many look for
ward to some real baseball and SER
les of victories for the home boys.
Although the border city stars
may feed satisfied that the came away
with Island Ponds scalp, thew should
have given the Essex county boys a
whitewash. Old Timer A. |. Kenni-
son had the Pond lads at his mercy
and for eight innings set them down
in order, allowing them but two hits,
one of which was scratch. But in
the ninth frame, the old left handler
'blew up. After the Island Pond
sluggers had garnered five hits and
as many runs in their last session bat
fest, Capt. "Shylock' kennison
yanked his uncle and mounted the hill
himself in an attempt to stem the
tide. There were two men out and
one ON base at this juncture of the
game and although "Shy" refused to
allow another hit, a sixth score was
sent over the plate as the result of
an error. The veteran twirler GER
tainly deserved shut out for he
gave very creditable performance.
The contest was a long drawn out
affair, lasting over two and one
quarter hours. The game was halted
for sometime while burial took
place in the cemetery nearby. An
other delay was the fact that the
Newport players hit almost around
on several occasans. In addition the
game was late in beinp started hos
tilities not commencing until 4.15.

Boldini. There was no mis-
taking the artist. 1t was in
his best style, a masterpiece Of
diabolism, mystery and fury.
Icertainly. felt that Boldini
should at least have offered to
sell me my portrait. / quickly
learned how it had happened
to pass beyond my control.
Boldini, like many other gifted
artists, was reckless and ex-
travagant, and frequently
needed large sums Of money in
a hurry. Prince Massimo, who
was a great friend and ad.
mirer of the artist, happened
to visit Paris and saw my por-
trait at his studio.
The picture appealed strong
ly to the Prince, who offered a
handsome sum for it. The
painter asked more, probably
because he felt that he had no
right to sell it at all. 1t was
just a weak yielding to low
commercial morality on the
artists. part. The Prince
promptly offered the higher
sum, and this Of course the
artist could not refuse.
1t was annoyance at Boil
dini's lack Of courtesy as
much as embarrassment at the
display of my charms that
