BASE BALL.-The captain of the
Burnside B. IT C. has invited the As
sumption nine of Napoleonville to
visit Donaldsonville next Thursday,
which will be the second and last day
r of the Episcopal Church Fair, and
- play a match game of ball. The cap
s taim of the Assumption club has writ
1 ten in answer that three members of
s his nine are away and he may not be
able to get substitutes, but promises ]
to do so if possible and accept the in
vitation extended. We hope the As
sumption boys may find it convenient
to come, for a contest between them
and our Burnside ball tossers would
add greatly to the entertainment of
visitors to the Fair, as well as afford
a few hours of pleasant amusement to
the members of the two cluls. We can
assure the Assumption nine that they
will be hospitably entertained should
they make the visit, and their failure
to appear on .Thursday next will be a
great disappointment to the Burnside
boys. __
FAIR.-The ladies of the Ascension i
Episcopal Church of this, town will I
hold a fair at the D. S. C. B. Hall on
the 12th and 13th insts., advertise
ment of which will be found in another
column. Those who remember the
splendid entertainment given at the
Hall under the auspices of these ladies
ast year, will, we are confident, not.
only visit this fair, but persuade theim
friends to do likewise.
