Saturday's Ball Game, The six-inning game of ball Sat urday between Colonel McKccn's sluggers and Major Cunningham's colts resulted in an easy victory for the former by a score of 28 to 6. For the first five innings Jim Hart occupied the box for the colts and held the sluggers down to live hits but owing to poor inficldiiig and consequent errors fifteen runs were made. Hart, though handicapped by a sprained leg, demonstrated that he is a pitcher of ability. In the sixth inning Miushall went in to the box and the sluggers piled up thirteen runs. The sluggers did play their usual game, probably be cause they knew that hard playing was not necessary. Major Cun ningham hopes to be able to strengthen his team considerably in the future, and thus give need ed support to Hart and Ouimctte, the battcrv. Commoncoinont Exorcises. An audience which well filled the iloor and galleries of the opera house attended the commencement exercises Friday evening. rue class colors were in evidence and over the stage hung the class motto. "Attention the Key to Knowledge." The class of 1901 had decorated the northeast corner of the gallery with its colors, aud the members sal there in a body. The curtain rose at nine o clock, and while the band played a march the graduating class numbering seventeen, the board of education, Rev. Geo. A. Beccher and the orator of the evening, II. S. KidgMy, took seals on the stage. Hie young ladies wore white gowns aud slip pers, and the young gentlemen were attired in black suits. The exercises opened by an invo cation by Rev. Beechcr, followed by awell rcndcrcdsclectioii by the baud Will A. Ottcn, who was selected as salutatorian by the class, deliv ered a fifteen minute address on Will It Pay." The young man's remarks were along the line of whether the acquirements ot an ed ucation was worth the effort and this of course he affirmed. Mr. Otten gave evidence of having given his subject considerable thought, though part of its efifecl ivenes was lost by the somewhat strained delivery. The commencement oration was delivered by II. S. RiUgely of the class of '96, and we do not flatter the speaker when we say it was a masterly effort, and one which has rarely been excelled before a grad uating class of the local schools. rue speakers remarks were re ceived with marked attention and were along the line of the need of an education in all vocations of life, the progress and succcsb which marked the'educated nation or in dividual, and the grand results of constitutional liberty as exempli fied by the United States. Alviu Pool rendered a pleasing violin solo, and J. G. Bceler, a member of the board of education, presented the diplomas to Hie sev enteen members of the class in a speech full of good, wholesome sug gestions aud advice. He was foi lowed with n well rendered solo by Rev. Wolfe, and Miss Sadie Bake well delivered the valedictory, the subject of which was "Knowledge and its Power." The address was a studied effort containing many excellent thoughts and waB well delivered. The young ladies and gentlemen who completed the course in the local school aud received their diplomas were Emma Baker, Mabel Davis, Sadie Bakewell, Jessie Bui lardi Emily Cooper, Mamie Cronln, Mary Doncgan, Bessie Finney, Margaret Oilman, Eva Ilartman, Ida Neir, Mcrtic Richard, Mary Sullivan, Irene iSwarthotit, Miner Hiuman, Will A. Ottcn and Louis Schmalzricd. Tho Alumni Banquot. The banquet given at the Pacific Hotel Saturday evening by the Higty School Alumni Association with' the class of 1'JOO and the mem bers of the board of education as guestx, has been pronounced the most complete and enjoyable one the association has given. Eighty-six covers were laid aud the tables were decorated with car nations nnd snowballs, and a car nation was placed at each plate. The menu cards had photographs of the old high school building and were tied with the class colors yellow and black. The menu was served in five courses and proved to be the most elaborate ever served in town. The courses were nicely prepared and served ver- neatly aud with dispatch. The banquet reflected very creditably upon Man ager Opclt of the hotel. The address of welcome was de livered by Chas. Bendy, president of the association aud was re sponded to by Miss Mamie Cronin. II. S. Ridgcly presided as toast master, aud the following toasts were proposed and responded to: Our Alumni," Miss Bertha Thocl ccke; "Class of Naughty Naught," Will Ottcn; 'The Fledglings," Rhodes Longlcy; "The Old High School," Miss Ida Von Goctz; "The New High School," P. E. Bullard; "Our Country School Ma'ams," Miss Arta Kocken. During the evening Prof. Bran don's orchestra furnished a program that was highly appreciated. BETWEEN' THE RIVERS.
