ELEVEN TO NOTHING That Was the Score at Yesterdav’s Game OUTCLASS'VISITORS From Start to Emuh the Cape May Team Outplayed the Classboro Aggregation

THE STRAND AND BATHING

The tautest ball telaiu «wn on Stockton 1 Jtv n »a» what Manager Campbell threw up yesterday. He had tinmen there with the good*, and what the Cape May boy* did to the U1bn»boro bunch waa a-plenty. Gla*»boro have a goal team, but they were “up against" the swift play ol the Cape May hOy*. The field work of the home team looked like profei si anal baseball, and Huak’a. throw* to second waa a feature. Harlan pitched "Vhe last inning* of the Cape May team, and delivered the good*, to the delight of the fans. He know* how to play the game and waa there at all times. It waa a well won game. The support of the visiting battery was ragged at times, and w hile the score might have been changed to the credit of the v idling team, there was never a chance for them to win. "Outclassed and outplayed” waa the opinion of Hr. Wales, official scorer, and one of the best judge* of baseball in Cape May, referring to the effort* of the Giaaabore team yesterday. Manager Campbell is growing coins on hi* hand* receiving the many bouquet* handed him for. hi* fast team, and he deserve* the bouquet*, and he doesn't mind the corns. Cape May ha* a baseball team to be proud of, and Manager Campbell's blushc* are in keeping with his modesty and ability. It '* a winning streak of our team because of superior ability. like Art emu* Ward's owl, Kddie Harlan i* an “amowin' cos*.” His sending over straight balb^from the * lab yesterday and making-believe ol cur\e*-and striking the be*t batten of the visitors out—was funny to those who knew. Mi. Harlan unoi his cle\ er head at all Mages of the game. He is not only a rattling good hall player, b it one of the cle'ereMawl most paintaking student* of Trineelon I'niver•ity.

Sumner end Eugene Conant were »o very different characters. Sumner, the elder, contrary to bU father's wish, would have nothing to do with bust'lien the Hitsulsb-American war be en luted, went to Cubs and ick In command of his comps gone wa* like the father, with ■Ingle to the accumulation of wealth. They were both bent on mon-

ey making.

Prior to going to Cuba Sumner Consul bad paid Home uttentlou to Gertrude Evans, a lovely girl with no fortune. ilut a* Sumner was poor shd bU father had repeatedly told him that If be didn't mend bla ways—which meant choosing a career indicated by the old man—be would cut him off In his will the boy let the matter with the girl go by default, lo the exdtevar be forgot all about her and on bis r his brother, gone to the orient on a business mlasion for his father. Sumner had not been at home a week before his father soddeuly died of apoplexy, leaving all hi* property to Eugene. Tbl* left cr out In the cold and vraa s rare •f fortune In Gertrude Evans' faISut another sudden turn of forsoou followed. The vessel on which Eugene was returning to Ameri»t at sen. and all on board perished. This gave the Conant propTty to Sumner a* sole remaining heir t law. and Gertrude remained poor. It occurred to Humnur that with a flue fortune he might have a very pleasant life visiting Europe, hunting big game In India and Africa and such occupation* that were attractive n. But considering that his forbad so narrowly missed going to irotberi* fiancee be thought he should do something for her. After thinking the matter over be concluded offer her half of the property. The offer be made by note. He waa greetr astonished to receive by return mall refusal to accept the gift. Then after much reflection Sumner made up hi* mind to idler himself with the half he proposed to give, thinking that the gift being, as It were, legitimatized. the girl might feel warranted In accepting It. Since such ■ proposlone who was supposed to be mourning for bis brother wae'e defile due to put, be concluded to do aa had done In the first case—iMite It ! wrote ten letters before be producone be was will lag-to send. Tbe reply wan. as before, a refusal, reason was mentioned, but Sumner urally Inferred that ber love for his lost brother was an obstacle. But the more Sumner thought about tbe matter tbe more It puzzled him. Here was a giri without a cent In tbe world declining the half of a Urge foreither with or without a husband. He thought be would write begging ber permit him to do something for ber with a fortune that had so nearly been her* Instead ef his But be concluded to stop- writing- letters and to go and ber. He ' * ‘ * very graciously. He stammered Incoherent exet— on her grief with his affaire, but she ■topped him to tell him that his conduct bad been very noble end that she had been deeply Impressed by his unselfish action. He tried bard to introduce another offer, but found It Impossible to frame one that be considered sufficiently delicate. When be left ber, somehow he felt as if he bed deprived ber of what rightfully belonged to her and there waa no pleasure for him In hU inheritance. He fretted and brooded. seeing ber occasionally to make some new proposition which was sh ways declined, till at last be made the discovery that he love with her. Then he and told her that If the didn't marry him be would blow out hit brains Then she consented to take the matter tinker consideration.
