If we were asked what outfielder
this season is covering the most
ground, and playing the greatest
game in the gardens, we would unhes-
itatingly say, Howard. His fielding
in the Fourth of July game was
nothing short of sensational. He
sacked couple of long drives that
had all the ear-marks of safeties.

If it was left to Tim to start the
tide against the Cheros, it fell to
O'Neills lot to put the finishing
touches to it. He wallopcd the ball
for the longest hit of the season. 1t
was homer, and he scored Lagrone
ahead of him. The ball sailed over
Loeb's big sign in deep left and was
lost in the tall grass of an adjoining
Victory Garden.

a beautiful hit, the prettiest of the

Mutual Light ater Company
Negotiating With the At
lantic Refinery.
WOULD BUILD PIPE LINE
FROM ARCO TO BRUNSWICK
A Plentiful Supply of a Very Su-
perior Quality of Gas is Avail
able at the Refinery Plant, as
a By-Product of the DistiIIa-
ton Process.

Brunswick gas consumers may, in
the near future, have an entirely new
source of gas supply, according to in
formation made public yesterday to
the effect that the Mutual Light &
Water Company is now negotiating
with the Atlantic Refining Company
to furnish gas to the local mains.
1t is stated that plentiful supply
of a very superior grade of gas is
available at the Arco refining plant,
being by-product Of the refining pro-
cesses in the manufacture of gasoline
and kerosene. The quality of the gas
is said to be equal. If not superior, to
the excellent product now being fur
.nished here.
A definite proposition hds been
made the local gas concern by the
Refinery, it is understood, which is
now under consideration, with the
prospects that 1t will be accepted. II
the deal is carried through,a pipe line
to Arco will be constructed, connect
ing with the city gas mains, and 1t is
said that a gas pressure of 15O
pounds is guaranteed by this arrange
ment.
May Mean Cheaper Gas.
The phase of the situation that will
appeal most particularly to the pat
rons Of the gas company Is the pos.
sibllity that theaper eas wIll festlit
fEsln ille tHahAil ll1 AuiTA1a
LED, IL well as the fact that 4 pienti.
ful supply Of high-grade gas viii be
available at all times.
Being by-product OF the big, refin-
cry plant it is evident that the cost
Of manufacture will be lowered, and
this reduced cost win very likely be
given to the consumer, which will,
in turn add considerably to the mum
Der Of customers. In fact ut Is read
lily seen that the proposition can be
made OF vast advantage to Brunswick,
as well as to the two concerns involv-
ed directly. The refinery plant has
supply of gas far beyond its own
needs, and the Mutual Light & Water
Company may, by taking advantage
OF the offer, save the expense OF in
stalling expensive machinery in the
future. This Is the view expressed
by disinterested business men.

Shipping Board Allocates Two
Regular COastwise Boats to

WILL LEAVE NEW YORK FOR
FIRST VOYAGE TOMORROW
Vessels Are of the Between
Decks and Side Ports Type,
and Will Make Operation
Much More Economical Than
Formerly, With a Great Inn
provement in the Service
Must be Self Sustaining.

Brunswick is at last to get a real
steamship service between this port
and New York, according to informa-
ton received yesterday from officials
of the Clyde Line, stating that sche-
dule of weekly sailings is to be in
augurated at once, with the new type
coastwise vessels recently allocated
by the Shipping Board, which are
now ready to be placed in service.
The two new vessels to be used
in the New York Brunswick service
are of the strictly coastwise type, oil
burners, with the between decks car
go arrangements and side ports,
which makes the loading and unload
ing of freight much more economical
and enables Ii to be handled with
greater dispatch and safety from
breakage, or damage.
The steamers haye been specially
altered for this service. and will give
Brunswick a steamship service from
New York which will merit the pat
ronage Of all shippers OF the city.
And 1t may be stated that Brunswick
must patronize this service il the bus
iness men wish TO keep steamship
connection with New York, as the
service must be made self sustaining
In order to be kept up.

York tomorrow, Wednesday the nth,
for the trip to Brunswick. calling at
Wilmington. southbound. The regu-
lar weekly schedule of sailings win
be inaugurated at once. leaving New
York on Friday of each week for
Brunswick.
The Inauguration of this splendid
service resulted from efforts of the
Brunswick Board of Trade, through
a committee headed by Frank d. Ak
EN-, and In order to Keep the weekly
schedule the Clyde Line will need ev-
cry pound OF freight possible, both
north and south bound. Brunswick
has a sufficient amount of tonnage
to justify the service. and 1t Is a
matter of self interest to the. city
to see that II Is routed by way OF the
Clyde Line.
