BASE BALL BOTES.
The players for new League team
are arriving in town, and all will be
ready for the first battle with Sunbury
on Monday.
The Bloomsburg High School
team went to Berwick on Saturday
and were defeated by the Y. M. C. A.
boys of that place. Score 109.
The boys say they received the best
kind of treatment, both from the
players and the umpire.
Manager Watts, has signed Bud
Ent and Ed. Splai 1 for the new team.
The uniforms worn by the Blooms
burg club on Monday will be splinter
new ones, and will be blue suits, red
stockings and Chicago hats.
The Normal went to Selinsgrove on
Saturday and downed the Susque
hanna University of that place by the
close and exciting score of 0 to 8
The game is said to have been a very
pretty one.
The Normals received very rough
and uneentlemanly treatment from
the University boys, who attempted
several times to use their rtsts but
were prevented from so doing by the
manager of the club. This is indeed
a bad reputation lor an institution
whose object is preparing young men
for better positions in life.
Rumors have been afloat to the
effect that the Bloomsburg club would
not remain in the Central Pennsyl
vania Base Ball League, but this
morning President Miller. ofShamo
kin, assured the News that there was
not the least foundation for the rumor,
as Bloomsburu would put up the
stifTest kind of ball and make it inter
estinz for the other clubs in the
league. Mt. Carmel News.

our very differences good may
come But we won't differ as
to the merits of one standard
emulsion of cod-liver oil
SCOTT'S EMULSION has
won and held its way for
nearly 25 years in the world of
medicine until to-day it is al
most as much the standard in
all cases of lung trouble, and
every condition of wasting
whether in child or adult as
quinine is in malarial fevers.
Differ on the money ques
tion if you will, but when it
comes to a question of health,
perhaps of life and death, get
the standard.
