Alan Stewart, winning pitcher. allowed only thiee hits. and although giving up six bases on balls, always regained his C.)'1- troi in time to keep the free nic- kel. holders off the score sheet.

He was backed up by almost flawless fielding. the only error committed by the llridgen-coacli- ed crew occurring in the ezghth ii-ning when Murphy got a hie on

s. bobble at third after two na'i been retired. The only earned run of thr

game was a. four-beggar hit high over C. B. Jel1y‘a fence in right field by Mathsaon of Charlotte- town in the fourth inning.

The winners seorsd their first run in the initial frame. Stewart walked and was advanced to soc- ond by Gradys sacrifice. Alter L. Schurman had fanned and Oat- way walked. Gay's grounder went through Hennesscy at second aiil Stewart crossed the plate.

The Kinsmen were presented with two more in the third. Graciy struck out, but reached first on the catchers error. L. Schurinan singled to right, Grady going to third, and Schurman taking sec- ond on the throw. A passed bail allowed Grady to score. and 1m mediately after Bchurman came home as the result of a wild pitch. the lone error which Ready contributed to the comedy of mis- cues. '

1n the seventh Summersi-le added three more, errors flgurinq largely again. With one out, Grady was safe when his grounder trickled through Hennessey at second. L. Schurman walked and Grady perched on second. notic- ing that MaeLes-n. visiting third sacker, was playing far inside

A valued friend in New Glas- gow writes that there are persist- ent rumours that Joe O'Brien is coming east for a holiday 511d i" says that if such is the case Joe will receive one of the heartlcst welcomes ever accorded a rc- tuming horseman. Our friend was much taken with the pacer colonel Dan at Truro, end pre- dicts that he will take a very fast record. Reverting 1° JOB o" Brien, he writes: "None nf us can forget the fact that Joe converted Tip Abbe from a hoppled pacer 1mg g, free-lagged pacer and made him the top free for all pacer in the Maritimes, winning miles in close to 2:06 and afterwards took him to Foxboro and set up three track records there. 11051118 01-11 some of the best pacers in New England and the Emil G11)’ H- 2:00% from Quebec. 1f Joe ar- riveg while the weather is fash- ionable sportsmen here hope to arrange a race meet so as to get a glimpse of the diminutive Grand Circuit reinsman up behind a few local mounts. Joe's appearance will make the turnstiles clickmer- riiy. It takes soft spoken Joe to peels the stands and line the rails with race fans here."

Friends of Dannie Steele, fonin- erly of Sirmmerside, will be glad to learn that he has quite recov- ered, from the accident he was in a. month ago and has driven sev- eral winners at Poxboro, notably Royal Mist in the six fu-rlongs. heading a fast field in 1:38 1-5.

Gunmiaries of Maine races are rather late in reaching us but. we note that at the bigger tracks the former island pacers Ann Ciegg. Linn Mite and Janette Dale are winning consistently, viz: Skow- hegan, Maine, 2:19 pace. Ann Clegg won. best time 2:08 2-5. Linn Mite won the 2:19 Condit- ioned Pace in 2:11 1-5; Bonnie Kalmmck viron the Classified Trot in 2:18; Janette Dale won the 2:18 Pace with both heats in 2:11. At the same meeting Earle Avery won the Classified Pace with Vic- tory Stratltrnore. the Two Year Old. Pace with Hector Chief, the Classified Pace with Mary M. Hal. the 20 Conditioned ‘Trot. first heat nuth Daphne Hanover, the 20 Con- ditioned Pace with Major Hal, the 2:10 Conditioned Pace with Free Spirit. the Classified Trot with Worthy Land and mother clas- sified trot with Whlzaway, best time 2:12 1-0.

We must express our regret at. the loss Earle Avery sustained when his barn burned recently at Woodstock, N. 8., with the vela- abla Bone. Beau 2:11 and another good prospect in it.

An offer of $5000.00 frcm part- ies in Maine has been made for the pacer Billy ivlcvay 2:09 3-5. and another big offer for Johnny Kalrnuok. and several other horse owners have been approached to sell. some of these horses are wanted foi- night racing at Fox- boro, Miles, where it is fllfllOlllTfl that Johnny Conroy.
