CARPENTER, Prest. lrtlAY mm REAL ESTATE. 51 III a 1 A Tew Tllvorrfi Suit Damazos For Lost Arm Probate 3Iattcra. Joseph Merz, a boy under fourteen years et age, brought suit in the Circuit Court this morning against- the Missouri Pacific Railroad. Plaintiff alleges that he was crossing the tracks, where he had a perfect right to be; that a train of cars coining towards him were suddenly let loose from the engine and ron down upou him with great speed, throwing hiui over and mangling his riant arm in such a way that it had io be amputated.

Plaintiff asks Judgment in the sum of $10,000. Sporting Notes. Twas ever thus with 6ure thins bettsrs. Joe Lucas be.it the English professional by a phenomenal ce on Saturday a week ago. Flushed with success, Lucas mikes a new match, betting tbe Theban $200 to $100 on the outcome.

The subject of Victoria promptly accepted, and to the t-urprise, disgust and depletion of the purses of Mr. Lucas' friends, Trice won the return match on Saturday by a score of S2 to 81, after one of the closest and most exciting matches in the history of the field. A deciding match for $500 a side is imminent. The Brown Stockings, through blindness of their directory, played a farcical game of ball vesterday afternoon with a clMb called the St. Louis Grays.

The latter couid not play ball a little bit. The Browns beat them, the score being thirteen to one. At the end of the third inning, when it was manifest that a "bum game" was to be played, the spectators began to leave the ground. Next Sunday there will probably be a match g3me between the Reds and Browns with a lively ball. That will bring out a big crowd.

Mauager Wite has, however, bulletined a game with the Lone Stars, of New Orleans, who are on their wsv here. Billy Gleason of the Red Stockings leaves Kansas City on Wednesday night to assist the Kansas City nine in games against the Topeka Club on Thursday and Friday. G.eason gets his expenses and quite a clever bit for his performance. Coroner's Cases.

This was twenty months ago, before the Filth Reader had been issued. Tbe production of this Item at this time la a great breach of trust; does not relate to the present books; has no date, and is only intended, like all the efforts of the monopoly agents, to peivert facts and prejudice the people.

Tbe fight of Col. Louis Horsheimer and II. W. Hance.

of the North St. Louis Headlight, was ventilated. It seems from the testimony adduced that Col. Dorsheimer felt aggrieved at a certain article which reflected on him dainagingly. He sought out Hance and administered to him a severe castigation.

Ilacce, however, had nothing to do with the article In question, it having been written by one of tbe editors. Mr. Dorsheimer said the whole thing was an attempt at blackmail. Hance testified that Col. Dorsheimer had oll'er-ed him money if he would suppress an article which appeared shortly prior to the Jefferson City Convention.

Dorsheimer characterized the statement as a base fabrication. lie said, however, that he had given Hance a dollar to help along the Crittenden boom.

Knight, Ticket Agent. THE WAY TO DO IT, And the Baltimore and Ohio Having Found it co Propones to Keep it Up. When the Baltimore and Ohio started its fast tiains, rival lines affected the utmost indiffer ence, merely assuming that as the road did no passenger business to epeak of anyway, it made no difference what sort ot trains it ran. In a short time, however, this affected apathy pave way to a most determined attempt to lore tbe Baltimore and Oblo to take off its fast trains, competing lines going so far as to run special trains against tbem. This affected no more than tbe other line of defens and find ing the special trains frost too much money they were dropped.

The result was tbe leav ing of the Held open to the leading line, and it sow, as last May, is the old seven hours ahead all rivals.

The success of the great transfer steamer Canton, which takes the New York and Philadelphia trains across the bay at Baltimore, instead of through the 6treets or under tbe city by the long, dark tunnel, is complete, and passengers are loud in their praise of the new order ot things. The Baltimore and Ohio appears to be meeting the requirements of its time schetlule.without trouble an engine making ninety odd miles in less than an hour and three-quarters a few days since.
