day afternoon's baseball game between
The Carolina and Village teams, the
sixth of the series, spelled it in italic
capitals, and then spelled it again, the
big crowd filling the grandstand and
sidelines, representative of every section
of the Village.
The Carolina's clinched the game with
two runs in the first inning, and while
the Villagers tied the score in the fourth,
they were only in the running for a
"minute", as the winners added three
runs in the fifth and four more in the
sixth, to an additional run for the losers
in the sixth.
Alberta and Burns, the pitchers, were
both in good form, but the support of
the latter was poor. De Roehn, The
Carolina catcher, had a "wing" like a
hawk and stealing bases was out of the

snappy hitting and Coffey's throw from
deep center to home, where he caught
"Fitzy", was the feature of the after

In the series of games played, The

fourth.

NJOYED by a score of
riders Saturday's paper
chase proved the most
popular of a long series,
its novelty a pursuit and
I "kill" in the ring at the
close, Messrs. II. L. Burrage and A. W.
Nevens acting as hares.
The trail laid by Mr. Burrage was a,
clever and intricate one. Starting from
The Carolina he swung out past the
old Dickinson school and beyond the
railroad track, then across country to
the left, turning towards the Village so
as to strike the Pinebluff road leading
in, astiff ride of some ten miles.
The pursuit was merely working out
the paper trail and the group kept well
together, the necessity for unusual speed
being eliminated by the fact that the
"hounds" were aware of the fact that the
"hares" were waiting for them in the
riding ring.
Mr Burrage was the first to flee' be
fore the mad "death cry" when the
pack sighted the "quarry" and his cap
was the goal, the women pursuing.
Time and again the prize seemed almost
won, but the clever rider managed to
"wiggle" out; Mrs. Burrage finally
taking the cap at the end of a minute
and a half.
Mr. Nevens rode next, pursued by the
men, and they set him a hot pace, but
it was not an easy task to reach the
handkerchief in his outside upper
pocket, even though "blocked", for Mr.
Nevens rode "upside down" a -good
share of the time and a "bridle wise"
horse did the rest. At the end of
two minutes, however, Mr. Edmund Con
nelly captured the prize. The trophies
awarded for the "kills" were presented
by Mr. Nevens and Mr. Mundy.
Riding in addition to those previously
mentioned were Mr. and Mrs. II. B.
Day, Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Cook, Jr., Mrs.
II. A. Gardner, Misses Day, Higgins,
Mattlage, Burrage, Heffernan, Borden,
and Slee; Messrs. Slee, Cofley, Flor
man, Lieut. Florman, Master Tucker
man and Riding Master Taylor.
A big crowd gathered for the start
and the finish and plans are already
