(Two games of base ball was play
at Pernice on Saturday last as
as given in the REPUBLICAN tact
eek. The morning game was:
laglesMere vs. Beruice which re
u 1 ted in a victory for the 'Mere team
o the tune o?20 to 11. The aftei
oon game Towanda Reserves vs.
ierniee, was won by the home team
13 to 10. T!ie Towanda boys were
ioinewhat distuibed over their de
eat, but tue wrinkles on their coun
.enances soon disappeared when
the music of the orchestra in the K.
of L. Hall struck up and was plain-
} fly beard in the direction of Schaad's
jVilla. This aroused the musicsensa*
'ltive of the boy's ears and afl struck
lop "Annie Roney." The chorus was
|immense, "Pickles" taking tbe lead. 1
4 Our readers may be at a loss to
know what this word "Pickles"! 1
[signifies. Well it is no cucumber '
i( !dyed in vinegar, we will give you a '
112 pointer on that; nor is he a cauli
flower pickle, but simply a colored
2 boy whom the Towanda boys play 1
behind the bat. They perhaps have
j christened him "Salt Pickles" on
account of his being so fresh on the c
delivery of all balls as he took them' (
all in, that is he caught them all.
The Bernice boys however, out done
the Reserves at the bat and won
easily.
'J'he dance was well attended and
the net receipts of the evening
amounted to some more than the
expenses of the day. The best of ]
order prevailed and the B. boys
took pleasure in looking* after their
guests that they might enjoy a good '
[ time.
The Towanda boys on their way "
home stopped off at Dushore and
played a picked nine of that place on
Saturday. This game was amusing
in the extreme and was won by the (
TowAnda boys, 6 to 0. |
