Had Manager Elsesser provided a one-legged umpire for yesterday's game, his team would have won, for it was Charlie Crouse's left prop that made a hit out of Herzog's easy grounder when there was one inan already gone in the third. Bonner was up next and reached first on a bad throw. by McKinney, and Campbell was put out of the business by knocking one into Kemp's bands. Had it not been for that unlucky block of Crouse's, this would have retired the side and the score would have been different, -but 85 it wasn't it wasn't and Wiegand hit for one base, bringing in two runs and to make the luek all the harder, Linderman caught one of the Glenrille twirler's products square on the kisser and Billet had to crawl into the weeds to resurrect it. The next man up walked and it looked though there might be more doing, but Chileott proved easy money and went out on an easy one to Mac.

This put an end to the cireus until the seventh, when a single by Campbell, a gift at che hands of Ketterman and an error by Me- Clatchie added 2 more to the score. For the Y. M. C. A.

the fun was started in the fourth when with two and Billet on first. as a litresult of one of Yahby's pretty tle singles, Grissinger hit out beautiful one and took a walk over Ketterman, the Y. M. C. new twirler from Glenville, pitched a great game.

holding the visitors down to eight hits, (one of which was on account Crouse's leg), and of allowing only four men to walk. Me- Kinney, Billet and Grissinger seemed to have their sticks loaded and knocked a few. McClatchie showed improvement, but still his throw to LeGrand the seventh was responsible for two runs. For Chester, Linderman covered first a everything coming way. Without this was one of brilliant games played in some Both teams played fast ball and errors were conspicuous by their absence.

Knock- was also unheard and Chester played throughout a clean gentlemanly game which made them at once popular with the small crowd The score: CHESTER. R. H. O. A.E.

Time of game, 2 hours. Penn Park Defeats Pottsville. There was something done on the Penn Park ball grounds yesterday when Penn Park defeated the strong Pottsville team by a score of 8-7 in a grand stand finish. Pottsville tried hard to make their York record three straight but they were up against a team with blood in their eye, Chelew was out in centre fie'd most of the time, but now and then he would dash out toward the Y. M.

C. A. grounds and pull the horsehide from out of the sky. One of his catches was a dandy, but the Penn Park now expect Chelew to catch every fly hit inside of the lot and were not at all surprised to see him kill Clemens' home run in the third. Hilbert pitched for Penn Park and kept the hits well bunched, but he was saved several hits by the fast fielding behind him.

Evans was in the box for the visttors and with the usual Pottsville support would not have had any trouble in winning, as four runs would have been saved in the first inning. Penn Park only seeured nine hits off of his six of them came in two innings. Smith, Clayeomb and Clay deserve the credit for yesterday's vietory, for in the ninth they all hit safely.Claycomb sent in the tieing score and then with two out if was up to who singled to left, scoring comb, and maybe the crowd didn't raise Cain just then! They were all surprised to have victory snatched out of the very jaws of defeat. Barker, Penn Park's new third, baseman, made a favorable impression with the crowd and hit the ball fairly each time, Phillips 1 made two great catches in left field which robbed Smith and Chelew of safe hits. Clemens also made a nice catch of a high foul off Clay's bat in the eighth.

Kid Smith was in great form yesterday and secured two doubles during the game. Evens also baffed hard and got three safe ones, including a double, out of four times up. Evans was very wild and gave seven bases on balls two of which scored. Chester plays Penn Park today at 3:30. The score: PENN PARK.

The Out Door Club presented quite an imposing appearance last evening. The second of the series of Thursday evening events was then held. In the enrly part of the evening croquet, ping pong and tennis were indulged in, after which cards were played. On the whole it was a thorougly enjoyable affair, and many availed themselves of the pleasurable treat, Prof. Newborough at Highland Park.

Prof. W. H. Newborough presented "Pinafore" at Highland Park last evening before a good sized and appreciative audience. The Professor has his company in perfect training, and needs no introduction to Yorkers, who have frequently enjoyed his various musical and other entertainments.

"Pinafore" will be the attraction at the park again this and Saturday evenings. The opera was (nicely staged, the chorus was strong and effective and the parts were all admirably sung. Prof. Newborough as Sir Joseph Porter won lots of applause. He caught the audience from the start and held their admiration.

Clara Gable, During the French and, Indian wars the colonists were always in dancer of raids from the As a means of defense they erected forts 4 and stockades. At least 207 forts, both large and small, were erected during the campaigns of 1755 to 1758 and that of 1763.

Other forts wore built auring the Revolutionary period in Western Pennsylvania to the panic that had seized the Inhabitants during Dunmore's War. Fort Penn and Fort Pitt were among the most noted of the later forts. An intersting description of forts and stockades and the uses to which they were put was given. ORATION--THE NATIONAL OUT. LOOK.

Walter E. Beard. He spoke of our resources, which are better than that of any other nation. Our country leads in commerce and manufacturing. Suca prosperity belongs to a nation which was continually at war and now with the brightest outlook, she goes forth as the youngest and best of all nations.

ORATION--DO THE NEXT THING. Catherine Elmira Paine. There is a saying from a quaint old English author which gives golden advice to those who have just out in life for themselves and failed, "Do the Next Thing." We hear of many people who if they fail in one thing think they never would be able to accomplish another. Rarely does any person succeed at first, but he must try again and then if he is not able to accomplish his purpose he must "Do the Next Thing." This 1s a noble maxim. Carry it home with you and remember it.

It may lift you out of the slough of dospondency. ESSAY-VERGIL. Florence Smith. ORATION--THE DESTRUCTION OF ST. PIERRE.

Rose Heller. Publius Vergiluis Maro, the most noted writer of the Augustan age, was born in the village of Andes, 70 B. C. Although he had 110 claim by birth to the name of Roman, ret his poems are so intensely patriotic that no other Roman writer either surpasses or even equals his depth of feeling. An interesting sketch of his life is given, together with the fact that the Aeneid was written during the last years of his life, but was left unfinished.

Contrary to the dying poet's wish was given to the world by the Emperor's command. Vergil died at Brundusium 19 B. C. at the age of 51. Humanity shudders as it contemplates the frightful disaster which has overtaken the seaport of St.

Pierre. It has met the same fate as Herculaenum and P'ompeii, a fate similar to that of the doomed cities of the Dead Sea Plain--Sodom and Gomorrah. A thrilling account of the destruction of St. Pierre was given. With all his boasted supremacy over nature, this is a force man cannot control or foresee.

The aw-1 fut fate that peter home to 118 the fact that, after all, man is a weak creature whose earthly existence may be ended in a mo- ment. ESSAY--THE SEVENTEEN YEAR LOCUSTS. Lottie Kauffman. The Cicadae or seventeen year locusts are with us again end Miss Kauffman gave a timely discussion of the interesting insect, describing its family and its habits, showing how brief is life. A few bright days in sunlight and beauty and the long years of darkness and gloom beneath the earth are the 10- cust's.

What a strange round of existence! ORATION--OPPORTUNITIES. Jacob G. Aldinger. Three things come not back: The sped arrow, the spoken word, and the neglected opportunity. The underlying cause of disunion and contention is not the fault of chance placing the wrong man in the wrong place, but a reason can always be found proving the inability of the person, tracing ciosely a lost opportunity.

Neither is it the want of material that accounts for the few who reach the bourne of high ideals. Should every one press on and on until he has used his very best efforts, then can he say, "I have seized the opportunity and have developed it." But who can account for the hosts of intelligent persons who are content to live as for time only? ESSAY- LEAVES. Bertha Kirschner. There is nothing in Nature more beautiful than the silent unfolding of leaves in the spring. Besides giving grace and beauty to the tree, the leaves have other missions to perform.

They are the very life of the tree. It is by them and through them the tree is enabled to breathe and to absorb moisture from the air. What 1 is more sad and yet more beautiful than the falling of the leaves in autumn? They have done their duty; they have done it well, and now they must be torn from their home to be blown listlessly about and to be forgotten by all. ORATION--PROGRESS. V.

Max Frey. Ever since Adam and Eve changed order of things, progress has been the predominant feature of the world. The secrets of earth, air and water have been percepted by man, and it is only now that he begina to realize his power and it will not be many years before he travels through the air the same as he now travels over the earth Holidays have been in existence ever since the world began, but have not boen known by that name. The Sabbath was the first holiday, All religious feast days were holidays and besides that religious purpose they had an important bearing on the maintenance of National unity. Besides these every nation own days set apart by the government, celebrating some national event.

How beautiful a thought that our Nation's first holiday was one of thanksgiving and 1 praise to the Great Creator for His bountiful goodness! National holidays when observed with the proper spirit nourish and promote patriotism and are a blessing: but if they are spent in rioting and drunkenness as the essayist fears too many are, they become a and water. ORATION--OUR NATION'S HOLIDAYS. Anna Manges, curse. ORATION--THE GROWTH OF A CITY. Joseph Murray.

A city is taken during the revolntionary period and then it is taken century after, and then again it 18 shown what progress has been made up to the present time. This city, after the Civil War grew to be one of most thriving third class cities in the country, and is at the present the third manufacturing city in her state. All will by this time have recognized this city as York and its thriving condition is due to the labors of our ancestors. ESSAY-A PLEA FOR THE TORY. B.

Naomi Conaway, History, at this late date, can certainly afford a compassionate, word for the Tories, besides having been forced to atone in life for living up to their convictions by undergoing confiscation and exile have received while in their graves little but detestation. As long as history stands the story of the Tories and their devotion to the cause they thought right will be told. Let us admire them for their good qualities and pity rather than censure them for their short comings. ORATION WITH VALEDICTORYSCHILLER. Edna C.

Rockey. Among the writers of Germany there is not one more deserving of our consideration than Prieditch Schiller. Notwithstanding the assertion of some literary historians that he belongs essentially to the "Revolutionary Perlod." it is safe to assert that he belongs rather to the "Twentieth Century." the century of to-day. Proof of this is found in his passion for liberty and his broad humanity. We appreciate his reputation the more, on considering the circumstances under which it was acquired.

Many obstacies presented themselves, such as discase, disappointment of profession and imprisonment; all of which he met with unwavering courage. For convenience, his life may be divided into three periods. The first, was one of struggle and unrest, ing which, at the age of twenty-two, he wrote his noted drama, "The Robbers." This work throws a clear light upon the moral and social conditions which led to the Reign of ror, and which culminated into the military autocracy of Napoleon. It was during these early years that he underwent most of those privations too numerous to record, and of such a character that we would give up all hope and wish to die. Not so with Schiller.

stood out in brightest letters before him, and he moved toward it with outstretched hand. The second was one of brighter existence, the love of mankind. 111 this state of mind he produced those numerous works which made man love his country and determine to fight tor it. 'Tis well said "his works accomplished more for the liberty of men than war itself." At this time he may be called the apostle of revolt, grown into the thoughtful historian, scholar, critic and poet; but he was ripening only for his great work to come. He entered upon a period of loftiest activity, in which he produced six dramatic masterpieces which stand unique in the literature of the world.

Among these is "Wilhelm Tell," the most noted and perhaps the greatest of all his works. In this, he again celebrates that love of liberty which had been his earliest inspiration. He also displays his greatest genius. For an example, we may quote his great "Apostrophe to Light:" ente edle Himmelsgabe ist Das Licht des Angos. Alle Wesen leben Vom Lichte, jedes gluckliche Gesschoff, Die Pflanze selbst kehrt frendig sich Lichte, Und er musz sitzen, fuhlend in der Nacht.

Im enig Finstern, ihn erquickst mehr, Der Matien warmes grun, der Bhimen Schmelz: Die roten Firnen kaun er nicht mehr Schauen; Sterben ist nichts, dooh leben und nicht sehen Das is eni Ungluck-Warum seht thr mich So jammerend an? Ich hab' zwei firsche Augen, Und kann dem blinden Vater keines geben." In this les the truth of Carlyle's words, "Schiller is the poet of truth, he exalts and inspires- -but does not mislead." He had now reached the summit of his fame and of his powers, His person and manners had ripened with his mind and character. Early awkwardness had given way to a calm dignity, which is characteristic of a great and modest soul. Public honors rapidly fell ent of upon nobility, him, and and he became received von a Schil- ler. It seemed as if a life of fame and prosperity was now opened to him; but that dreadful disease which so long preyed upon his strength renewed its attacks and his overtasked powers failed and he soon died. All Germany wept over the death of its best beloved, it not greatest poet; and the common voice accorded him a fame which has endured from then till now, and shall probably last forever.

Germany cannot claim all his admirers, for the nations of the entire world join hands in honoring him, and enroll him among the select few to whom they look for guidance, truth and help. "And is it not so Schiller, thou Hast earned a glorious, an immortal name The universal voice hath wreathed thy brow With laurels fair, in token of thy fame; The poet's mantle bright thou wearest now Upon thy shoulders placed with one acclaim, Thy native country holds thy memory dear, It still hath bloomed through many a changing year." valedictory, The time is drawing nigh and we must part, but first let us say a few words of farewell, We thank you, honorable members of the School Board, for the kindness shown 118 during our school life. For three years we have enjoyed the conveniences of this spacious building, all through your efforts and trials. To you the class of tends Its most heartfelt thanks. To you, most worthy superintendent, whose visits among us we have highly appreciated, we express our constant gratitude.

We shall always remember you consider it's your class and hope we are worthy of that honor. We deem it an honor to enter the ranks of the Alumni. Although we do not bring as great a number as some preceding classes, yet we hope we shall be of some benefit to the association. To our teachers, words can scarcely express our most sincere gratitude. You, for four long years have toiled with us and brought us to this point when we must leave you, ever carrying with 115 the lessons and truth you have taught.

To you the class extenus the most grateful thanks. To you, most worthy principal, in what words will be sufficient to express our gratitude for your most valuable services? Many times the road was steep and rocky, but your ever guarding hand led us to the top where we could look down and see where both right and wrong paths would lead. Now, as a proof that your labor was not in vain, we shall endeavor to paftern our future lives after the examples you have placed before us. To you the class of '02 extends its heartiest thanks. To our schoolmates, we, who have toiled with you in bygone years would say just a few parting words.

We have made many and grave mistakes, but hope you will profit by them. Let not one opportunity pass that presents itself; apply every moment with hard study work for, remember, "Spare moments are the gold dust of Time." To friends of the class, we thank you for the interest shown 118 by your presence here tonight. May the elass of '02 ever occupy a place in your memory. My classmates, we have at last reached the point where we must part. For four long years, and yet how short they seemed, -we have worked as one, but tonight those ties which bound us so closely together must be broken.

this parting may seem, let 118 remember the truth that geometry taught us "that two straight lines must somewhere meet." So, when our different paths of life meet. tet us ciasp and recall come of the pleasant hours spent gether in the High School. Remember whatever come you take it will not be free from difficulties, but however, dark it may seem at times think, that, "Behind the clouds is the sun still shining And thy fate is the common fate of all. Into each life some rain must fa'l Some days must be dark and dreary." Ever keep before you our motto, "Palma non seine Pulvere," and surely each will receive his reward in time to come. To you I bid farewell, but not good bye, for may we meet in days to come.
