THURMONT TAKES ANOTHER

Last Saturday Jefferson took an g.
to-1 count at the hands of Thurmont
on the latter's field.
The inability of several of Thur
mont's regular players to be on hand
for this game made the lineup very
uncertain. Ecker is laid by with Sc
riously injured finger, and Ed. Creeger
was delegated to stop Eaton's swift
ones.
For the visitors Cook started the
throwing and in the first inning only
four men faced him. In the second
inning Thur,nont landed on him and
poled out six runs. Hines relieved
Cook in the third inning.
Eaton allowed the visitors five hits
and only in the third did they count
for anything.
The fielding of the home team was
a feature of the game.
Seven innings We're played when
Manager Doty, of the Jeffersons, con-
cluded they had had enough and the
game was called.

Robin Gets the Worm.

Robins are growing fat on worms In
Lafayette square.
The grass there must be literally
alive with worms, for no robin seems
to have any difficulty whatever In pick
ing up the hest kind of living.
You will see one of the birds hop
along, then suddenly reach down.
He begins to pull.
Up comes his head with worm
dangling to his beak, one end OF the
worm held tenaciOusly by the robin.
the other clinging fast to mother
earth.
Bracing himself the bird throws his
entire weight In one final heave. He
then consumes half the worm. and
flies away with the remainder.
The performance docs not strike
one as cruel for both bird and worm
