Mana- ger O'Rourke put in his young left launder Schumann agaim and he had the Ponies guessing all the time He allowed them but five scattered hits and although a little farce with bases on balls, there was not a time when the home team had any show. His support was almost perfect, two sharp double plays helping but things. '- Springfield played billl, too, but was never able to connect for hits. Olean- euts was effective after the first in~ sing, but could not win his game alone. The home team also worked in a con- ple of double plays. About 1, .100 one joyed the sport. Bridgeport led off in the liveliest fashion possible, Rogers walked and scoredwhen Yale doubled. Ladd fol- went out he tallied the third run of the inning on Beaumont's great dou- ble. That rally won the game right off. The scone was four to nothing, and Schumann made one of the runs. He also struck out three men, while his opponent struck out one, ‘and had four then take first base on balls, while the other side had only one. FATHER O'DONNELL'S PRESENT.‘ , or.

Huge. inky black clouds are rolling over Fort De France in great masses and there are peculiar _ lightning flashes in the clouds. The in- . habitants are now flocking into the great square of the town. If the dem- onstration increases a panic is immi- neat. A heavy surf has been beating on the shore for the last two hours and an enormous grayish yellow cloud at a ‘ great height is dimly visible in the di- rection of Mont Pelee. The night ls intensely dark and the stars are only faintly visllbe. Fort De France Is in no danger from the vol- cano but there is considerable appre- hension of a panic in the night time, should the grayish yellow cloud reach here and ashes and stones begin to fall. There are no noises from the volcano at present. ROSEAU, Dominca,B. W. I..
