On Monday last about five hundred spec tators wero treated to ono of tho finest ex hibitions of baso ball over given In Carbon county. Notwithstanding tlio fact that our club was defeated It required tho aid of a 'crack" pitcher from Hazleton and the um pire to accomplish It, and eyen then tho 'combination team" barely escaped defeat. Tlio game should have stood ono to ono at tho end of tho ninth Inning, as three of the four runs scored were made after three hands had been put out. The umpire made several outrageous decisions which tho home team should not have allowed under any circumstances. lHien tho visiting club, numbering about fifteen, arrived, our boys wero puzzled to know whether they were to play Lansford or tho entire anthracite coal region. Dayla, the manager and backer of tho Lansford club, thinking that tho Lehighton team was too strong for his team, secured tho Hazleton battery to help them out. But he was entirely too slow, as our boys got on to his scheme beforo the came, aud Healey was not allowed to play, and nays was permitted to play only on condition that ho would play In tho field. In tho first Inning Hays played in right field and O'Donnell pitched, but as our boys slugged him, Hays was put In tlio box, thereby say ing themselves from a bad defeat. Our players wero told to object lo him pitching, but they thought it would be po disgrace to bo defeated by Hazleton professionals and left him pitch the balance of the game. This contest has demonstrated to facts; first, the borough of Lansford cannot pro duce a nine, that can down ours: second. tho Lansford club cannot play a square game. Although Lehighton lost tho gamo It was no disgrace to the players, and they deserve the highest praise for tho noble and effective woik which they did.

In last week's Issuo of the Slatfugton ivcics there appeared a lenethv article heaping abuse upon tho Lehighton Baso Ball Club, which among oilier falsehoods contained tho following; "they sacrificed their gentlemanly principles In order to defeat the Bine Stockings." Tho fact of tho matter is, our club went to Slatlngton and playAl to win, which they always do, but not In ono Instance did they act ungcntlcmanly. On the other hand they wero well behaved, ordeily and sober, and won the respect of the best class of pcoplo In Slatlngton. Trouble lias always arisen through Ignorance of the playing rules on tho part of the Slatlngton players. In cycry game that our club ever played with any of tho Slatlngton clubs, our boys had to teach them a rulo or two. Let all fair minded judgo between, tho courteous ticatmcnt given tho Blue Stock ing club whllo playing here, and the shamo ful treatment our club received whllo in Slatlngton, an say which party " sacrificed their Gentlemanly principles."

The enterprising, go aheadatlve citizens of Summit mil will present a petition to tho Carbon county court at Its October term praying that It bo granted tho privilege of an incorporated borough. In this connection the following Item may he Interesting read ing. Summit Hill owes its origin to. Jacob GInter, who discovered anthracite coal there sometlmo during tho year 1701. It was a number of years afterward, sometime during 1818,bef ore operations for the precious min eral were commenced on a systematic basis. However, at that time the lands be came tho property of a corporation known as the Lehigh Coal Company, who insti tuted a settlement and commenced tho min ing and transportation of coal; but the region being wild and- mountainous it re quired a goodly number of years before tho settlement put on tho appearance of an es tablished town. Following tho history of Summit Hill, as .It passes from one ago to another, we notice that It abounds with the usual comical as woll as serious inci dents connected with the establishment of mining towns. Summit Hill to-day,' Is no doubt, far beyond what tho early coal pioneers dreamed It would bo. It Is a thriv ing town, with many possibilltcs, which the enterprising citizens can mako facts if they "but stick to It. Tho population of the town is probably nearly two thousand, and with Its beautiful churches, school house and many elegant business places hotels and restauranst, in connection with the natural curiosities, the burning mine, the Ico cave and the world famous switch back railroad, Summit Hill ranks In point of popularity far nboyo any town In the Lehigh Valley.

C&lldreni' Day in the Woods, Last Saturday morning at 10 o'clock tho pupils of tho Normal Square Sunday School assembled on the school campus. At 10 16 Iho New Mahoning Comet Band of 18 pieces came on tho campus to accompany the school to the grove a few hundred yards north of tho school house. The procession was headed by tho band Tho banner bearing tho Inscription "Tho Normal Squaro School " together with the motto, " Feed my Lambs," Was borno by two boys and four llttlo girls. It was beautifully decorated with flowers and evergreens. At this stage of our leport a dcscilptlon of tho grove may boj of Interest to your readers. Along the south sidoof the grove flows tho Mahoning creek, a beautiful stream of fresh water, making tho placeJ romantic. Tho spnico and pino trees over head completely shut out tho hot rays of tho sun. The ground was cleaned over large area. Close to tho bank of the creek a large stago was erected In front of which wero placed roughly constructed but com fortable scats for tho school and strangers from abroad, Between three and four hundred people could bo seated. The stage was nicely decorated with flowers and ever greens. In front of it was suspended an anchoi beautifully decorated with flowers, on the cast Bldo hung a basket, 'of flowers that perfumed the whole grove and on the west side was a horse shoo trimmed with oats! In front, and a llttlo to tho right of tho stago, stood a large'table on tho.ccntro of which rested a cross made of Immortelles With a beautiful crown on the top of It. Tho rest of the table was covered with all kinds of delicious fruits. The young ladles of tho school deserve much praise for the tasteful decorations of the stago and ele gantly arranged fruit table. In the centre of tho scats stood a well toned organ which belongs to the school. The exercises wcro opened with prayer by Prof. S. E. Stofflet, Mr. E. O. Nothsteln, Superintendent of the school then Intro duced Mr. George A. Drclbelbols, a member of the sophomore class In Frank lin and Marshall Collego, who gavo a very Interesting aud practical talk on Sunday- school work. Musle and declamations followed. Mr. Jacob II. Longacre, a member of the sophomoro class in Mulilcn burg College was then introduced. Ho had a carefully prepared speech suitable for the occasion. At 11 30 the morning exercises were oyer. The superintendent requested Iho band to play while tho ladles wero preparing the tablf for dinner. In about twenty minutes our attention was directed to a table aboat sixty feet long loaded down with eata.bles of inuumeiable variety; be sides the tablo was beautifully decorated with fragrant bouquets that seemed to con tend with tlio towering cakes to rise up highest. In a short time tiro school was taken to the table to partake of tho bounteousi feast that was spread beforo them, fully four hundred people enjoyed their dinner In tho grove. At 2 o'clock the regular Children's Day exercises wero opened with prayer. Tlio exercises consisted principally of declama tions and music. In about tho middle of the exercises the superintendent introduced Miss Emmii L. Seldln, who read an essay on " What children can do." The essay showed c.xreful work In preparation and was read In a sweet and natural voice. Towards llu close Prof. S. E. Stollletmade a German speech which wai closelyllstencd to and enjoyed by all. The vocs.l music of the exercises con tributed no small part of the programme. Much of tho great success of tho day is due to Miss Schilo who worked faithfully In preparing tlicso exercises. At 3 o'clock tho six hundred peoplo that had nsscmblt'd In tho groyo wero giyen their liberty to enjoy themselves in whatever manner they desired. Tho young folks soon started (games of various kinds, while the band keplt up a lively spirit with its elegant mu3 le.
