BASEBALL NOTES. Twenty-five hundred people saw the game Sunday at Hoboken. Next Sun day Ilion will be the attraction there. MoMaokin and Mike O'Neil, two twirlerB whom the fans well remem ber, showed up well in practice sameg reoently. McMackin pitched against the Giants for Oolumbus and O'Neil defeated the St. Loais American League team. It is quite likely that the Marions ?will be seen in a praotioe game on the ^fiaturday before the regular season opens. The strongest of the local ?eam, probably the Crescents, will be |/ secured as opponents and besides giving the players a ohanoe to get in some team work it will also give the fans an opportunity to get a line on the team that will represent Perth Amboy on the diamond this summer. The officers of the Marions are making efforts to dispose of a number of season tickets during this week as they are anxious to get enough money in the treasury to pay for the work neoessary to put the grounds in shape. If the fans will only oome to the front with the oash, new uniforms will also be purchased. As the opening of the season is less than a moDth off lovers of baseball are urged to lend their support to the cause of providing this anoient village with the best that's going in the line of the national game. Some few persons have expressed ||the fear that the Marions will not be F>?8. strong this year as heretofore and k.that baseball here is on a retrograde Fi movement. It is the old story of ' looking for trouble when the outlook is most brilliant and hunting for storm olouds when the sun is shining brightest. There is absolutely no cause for any one to feel the least alarm about the Marions not sustain ing their last year'B record. As the Evening News has pointed out, the team will be just as strong in every department and man for man will be the equal if not superior of f&e team that closed last saeson so successfully. Lines are now out for two of the best semi-professional players hereabouts to play at short and third and when their names are announced the calam ity howlers will be very muoh sur prised. These bard luok shouters, b* ' the way, are not far removed from the genius "knocker" and meaner man than the one who knooks the home baseball team without cause, is not to be found in many a day's walk. RELIANCE NEARLY COMPLETED Last of The Plates Being Placed? Mast To Be Stepped Next Week. Only two plates remained unplaced on the top sides of the latest Herres hoff cup champion when the steel workeis in the south construction shop finished their labors for the day. These have been already bent, "trued" and prepared for riveting, and can be firmly secured within half an hour. The rigging of the steel mast will be oompleted by the middle of next week, and it will be stepped at the north wharf, being raised and lowered interposition by a large derrick at the western end of the wharf, instead of by the derrick steamer Aroher, which has done the work for previous cup defenders aided by a large scow, the primitive means. WRESTLER BROKE ARM Anders Andersen, of Sweden, In a Bout With Gadeberg Met With Accident. In the Graeco-Roman wrestling match at Prospect Hall, Brooklyn, last night, Ernest Faust, of Germany, defeated Anders Anderson, of Sweden, in one hour and fifty-one minutes. Anderson injured his right shoulder in the bout and the match was dis continued. While wrestling same style "with Christian B. Gedberg, Bernhardt Pet erson had his right arm broken. TRIAL RACE TO-DAY. Two Shamrocks Postponed Yesterday's Contest Owing To High Wind. The two Shamrocks were made ready early yesterday for their first racing trial, but the wind was blowing so hard the skippers decided not to risk the yacht's gear and to await a moder ation of the weather. As the wind continued strong and it was squally enough to endanger tne yacht's spars, the trial race of the Shamrocks planned yesterday was postponed nntil today. It is probable that no race between the^boats over a set course will take place before Saturday. 1 HARD STRUGGLE Many a Perth Amboy Citizen Fnds The Struggle Hard. With a back constantly aching.
