last night was as minutes late. The engine collided with a tree, doused its headlight and was forced to use a lantern in its place. John Molntosh, formerly a salesman in the store of T. J. Host later of Ludington, lias returned to the city and accepted a position in the clothing department of the Boston store.

He began his duties yesterday and his family is here to stay. CAMP HARDSHIPS. GILT-EDGE BALL TJp in Is What the Hustlers Put Muskegon. triumphant Hustlers arrived The Entered at the postotlict 1 as second Traverne City, matter. Address all communications to Morning Record home yesterday, all well and in very complacent frames of mind over their two well earned victories over the Muskegon Reds.

The boys played splendid ball and THE council has wakened to the fact a city park or two would be a good thing. Alderman I'roodrich does not believe in the improvement of the county grounds, but the RKCOIW still insists that there is the point for the first step in park improvements. The ground belongs to the county and is hallowed by a shaft erected in memory of our soldier heroes. If the monument is to stay there it is a disgrace to allow its surroundings to remain a "barren waste. At the same time the "RECORD does not discourage a bay-shore park: on the contrary, the paper will do everything in its power to bring about such an improvement.

But let us improve the property we own, anyhow, and if there are any possible means in addition to create a pleasant retreat on the bay shore let us make use of them. ALDERMAN is one ahead. The absence of Alderman Jahraus from the council meeting last night gave the alderman from the second a chance to spring a move upon his colleagues that they could not checkmate. The second ward may now rest content. The Division street culvert only a suggestion in comparison to that which the board of public works was ordered last night to execute.

This overshadows a little thing like a stone culvert and gives the second ward a show for its white alley. IT is suggested that the council cause few inexpensive bath houses to be along- the bay shore at points convenient and suitable for bathers. This is not a bad idea and would be generally appreciated. The free bath system is a matter that is given most consideration in all large cities having the facilities. Traverse City has plenty of water and numerous persons who would be benefited by this plan.

Brevities. Lottie Jameson and Julia Backer won both games on their merits. There were features in the first game not mentioned in the RECORD'S special Sunday morning. In the inning Perry struck out the first three men at bat, retiring the side on twelve pitched balls. The triple play by Adams, Parks and Novotny was the sharpest, quickest and prettiest play ever made on Muskegon 's grounds.

Opportune hits by Watkins and Novotny helped materially toward the happy result. Adams distinguished himself by making some pretty stops and accurate throws. In fact, every member of the team was full of ginger and put up a gilt-edged article of ball. Below is the tabulated score of the first game. Bales umpired this game and gave good satisfaction.

Second Game. The good work of the first game was kept up in the second.

The Reds also made some good field plays, notably, a fine catch of Hull's, a line hit by Cavanaugh in right field, but they lacked team work. Koorum, the ex-Hustler, pitched a good game for Muskegon but couldn't win against the good work put up by his old associates.

The first taste of camp life, as a company this year, was enjoyed by the Hannah Rifles Saturday night and Sunday.

An active interest in all the routine duties was displayed by all the members, and from "reveille" to "retreat" there was, with the exception of the time during the heat of the day, something was going on. Captain Mcln- tosh had his men up almost at day break and put them through the series of calisthenic movements, in military parlance known as the "setting up exercise," which loosened up the joints and muscles of the men and prepared them for the regular field drill of two hours, which took place after breakfast. The time between morning drill and "guard mount" at 4 o'clock was spent by the men in bathing in Carp lake, telling stories, eating dinner, and trying to keep cool. The company showed up in excellent form in all the maneuveas. and took to the hard work like veterans, without a complaint.

There was a chance for the men to show their'courage and endurance in a genuine battle (with mosquitoes) and they behaved nobly. The sort of mosquitoes that live at Carp lake appear to thrive on soldiers' blood. Fires were built and smudges made, but it only made the ravages of the pests worse. The "bite scarred troops" arrived home at 3 o'clock Sunday evening and were much pleased with their the ready to go again. Personal.

The pleasure in his music was augmented in watching the expressions that crept over his face forming a picture of the thoughts called forth by the bow. Remeuyi is especially fortunate in his company.

Drs. B. the noted specialists, surgeons and physicians of Muskegon, will soon visit this locality. Their fame is so far reaching that it is hardly necessary to comment upon their visit other than to state the time of their arrival.
