AlcCutcheirs residence, and in tne i afternoon there was a match game} between the Black River and the Dauntless clubs. Before the sun had pursued far his morning career a large crowd had assembled ?n (he grounds, including a fair proportion ol charming young ladies. The morning was pleasantly passed with games and other social diver, sions dear to youthful hearts, until about 1 o'clock, when dinner was announced. That scene would require a more lacile pen than the writer's to describe. Suffice it to say that the spread included the most dainty, delicious and sumptuous viands that won Id gladden the hearts and stay the appetite of an epicure. The young ladies are entitled to special thanks tor their kindness in waiting on the table. The dinner over, the boys and girls just naturally paired ofl, many of them taking seats in convenient buggies in sequestered spots, where topics of more or less interest were discussed. Not long after dinner the contesting teams went over to the diamond, and very soon tiie game commenced. Both clubs had friends among the spectators, and when good playing was done on either side it was applnded. k A<?ain. it is inv duty?but not a V sad one?to report a defeat for f (be Dauntless club. While the f game was not without interesting features, the teams were too unevenly matched for it to be excit ing. As luipire, Mr. J. D. Frierson, was eminently fair and satisfactory to both sides. Score by innings: Black River, 3 1 0 6 2 0 6 2 2-22 Dauntless, 2 0 2 0 1 0 4 0 0-9 After the game the crowd enjoyed seveial excellent selections of popular music, rendered on the organ and violin at the hospitable home of Mrs. ICobert fcpps.
