Show THE MARRIED MEN WIN T RID MN W Bachelors of Z C H L Defeated in An Exciting Game The bachelors of Z C 11 I are disconsolate dis-consolate and they no longer make the air weary with boastings as to their prowess in the matter of bal tossing Yesterday they met the married men of the Institution at Agricultural park and when the heated struggle was over thev were conscious of the inglorious in-glorious and ignominious score of 1 to 12 in favor of the men who enjoy the delights of the conjugal leThe le-The game did not begin until 6 oclock and so it was decided that only five innings In-nings should be played In order that the gloom of night might not envelope I the sphere before the glory and laurels of victory had settled upon one of the nines At the end of the fifth the

pitchers box and held a hurried consultation in OV and subdued tones The next ball that came to him advanced with a slow undulating un-dulating movement and Patrick with a mighty effort sent i far away into the distant foliage The married men claimed a consnir acy and objected vociferously to the I umpire and nothing but the well known personal beauty of Mr Nicholson Nichol-son saved him from
