It behooves Boston to look out. Sowders has been released to Pittsburgh, TAA Un.i Win niwnn Vi ia rolpflRA 11 T1- conditionally by the Philadelphia management. Pittsburgh has signed Fitzgerald, of the Wilkesbarre club, paying $800 for his release. It looks very much as though Galvin was a back number. The Philadelphia had a picnic with him on Saturday.

Beatin is pitching good bal! for Cleveland, and Sanders, of the Phillies, appears to have regained his old-time form. It was a big feather in the cap of young Pitcher Russie, of Indianapolis, to strike out big Dan Brouthers. It was the third time, that the big fellow has struck out this year. "No, I shall not go to Louisville this year," said Jack Chapman Wednesday. "I shall fulfill my contract with Syracuse and perhaps go to Louisville next season." Detroit Free Press.

Nat Hudson threatens to make it warm for the St. Louis club. It is doubtful whether he will agree to the trade made for Ramsey. He was not consulted by Von der Ahe. He is under suspension for having rheumatism.

Perhaps Deacon White and Jack Rowe are not caring much for Pittsburgh. You may tie a man down by oppressive regulations, but you can't make him put his heart in his work. Cincinnati learned that bitter lesson in the. cases of Gennelly and Cork-hill. About the toughest inning any professional pitcher has experienced this year was that which Duke went through up at Minneapolis the other day.

It was the first and eighteen St. Paul men went to bat. Four of them were hit by the ball, one got his base on balls and the others hit for ten bases, fourteen runs were piled up and then the "Duke of Minnesota" took a walk. Two nines from planing mill No. 2 played a game of base ball on the Third street grounds on Saturday afternoon.

The nines were captained respectively by W. Wilt and Banks Duncan, and it was only after twelve hotly contested innings that Wilt's nine gained the victory by the following score: 2 001 1 030000 29 Duncan 0 0004100200 07 Wilt's nine challenges any nine from the lower shops to play a game of ball next Saturday. THE KECORD. In the league Per Misses Lizzie and Mary Carr, daughters of Judge Carr, of St. Louis, are visiting the family ot Mr.

William M.Uooatellow at East End. The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Shoemaker died of cholera infantum, after a brief illness, on Friday last. The funeral took place yesterday.

The indications at present are that the Blair County Agricultural society will have this year a good fair. The damage wrought by the floods will soon be repaired. W. I. Woodcock, and family are enjoying the salubrious atmosphere and health restoring waters of Bedford Springs.

Mr. Woodcock's vacation will continue a week or ten days. Miss Lucretia Kennedy is visiting her brother, Dr. C. V.

The Phoenix steam fire company will hold a special meeting this evening at 8 o'clock to consider the all-important question of new uniforms. Let there be a full turnout of the fire laddies.

Mrs. Carrie Bailey and her daughter, Mrs. Helen Mann, of Mill Hall, Centre county, accompanied by the interesting daughter of Mrs. Mann, are visiting their parents and grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.

John Bollinger. Mrs. Bollinger takes great pride and delight in having at her side her great-granddaughter. The pupit of the Methodist Episcopal church yesterday morning was occupied by Rev. N.

W. Colburn, as it was on the Sunday mprning previous. Rev. E. T.

Swartz, the pastor, by reason of sickness, is unable to preach. He was thought to be convalescing towards the close of the week but his condition on Saturday was not so favorable. A telegram received by Mr. Joseph Hutchison, informs us that Mrs. M.

Koon, died at the home of her brother, at Hanover, York county, on Saturday morning, July 20. Mrs. Koon was the widow of the late Mr, David Koon, of Carson Valley, in Allegheny township, and latterly a resident of Duncansville, and was well known in that community. Dr. D.

H. Barron, pastor of the Presbyterian church, has been granted a vacation during the month of August. This kind act was voluntary on the part of the session and done without the knowledge of the worthy and esteemed preacher. By direction of presbytery ur. Barron will supply the pulpit of the Presbyterian church at Mifflin next Sunday, and preach in his own church on the first Sunday in August.

Owing to the lack of cooperation on the part of all the posts of the Grand Army of the Republic in the county, it is probable that the project of erecting a county monument to the memory of the soldiers of Blair county whose lives were lost in battle or who died of wounds received in battle, will be abandoned. Comrade J. A. Calvin, commander of post 39, has been working assiduously in this matter for several months, and has been obliged, though with great re-luctancy, to give the matter up. Whilst some of the posts, notably 468, of Altoona, and 565, of Martinsburg, will favor this worthy enterprise, it seems to be the desire to have separate monuments dedicatory to the memory of the dead of Tyrone, Altoona and their respective vicinities.

We are now prepared to return to the original idea and join hands with our lady friends of the Woman's Christian Temperance union of Hol-lidaysburg and vicinity, and erect a handsome monument and, drinking fountain combined, to occupy a place in the public square. If the suggestion of Mr. H. L. Bunker is adopted, a liberal donation for this laudable object may be confidently expected from the surviving members of the Eighty-fourth regiment Pennsylvania vol unteers.

He proposes to place on the top of the monument a life-size statue, in bronze, of the late Colonel William G. Murray, organizer and command sr of the Eighty-fourth regiment, and who was killed at the battle of Winchester. Let us move in this matter and that quickly. For Thirty Days Only. In all cities the greatest wealth, the loftiest buildings, the hardest pavements, the most glaring street lights and the most permanent improvements are always found in business centers; but this does not make the locality particularly pleasant nor especially desirable for a home.

A suburban home, where the babies have room to run and enjoy life, where they will grow up to be healthy men and women, is far more preferable. Our city is especially well located for such and nowhere are sites more desirable than in the plot recently thrown open to the public and named Oakton, and nowhere in or out of the city can lots be bought on more reasonable terms. Parties wishing to build at once may purchase lots here for the next thirty days at remarkably low prices. For particulars inquire of Fbed. L.

The employes of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore, Baltimore and Po tomac and Alexandria and Fredericksburg railroads have subscribed $3,357.26 for the benefit of destitute and homeless railroad men on account of the recent Johnstown flood, and the amount was Saturday forwarded to Robert P.

The railroad fund now amounts to many thousand dollars. At at early hour Wednesday morning the barge frame barn of Nathaniel Ryan, in Burrell township, Westmoreland county, was, with the exception of a bore and buggy, entirely destroyed by fire. The barn contained a considerable quantity of hay and some farming utensils, but most of the machinery being in use at the time was in the field and consequently escaped being destroyed. The origin of the fire is a mystery, but it is believed to be of incendiary origin. There was no insurance on the building or contents.

THAT ROMANTIC STORY. Oar Huntingdon Correspondent Tells How. It Came to be Written. Eds. Tribune: Notwithstanding the denial of Warden Hoyt, of the Colorado state yesterday's Tribune to being a party "to the finding of the buried gold nuggets on the of M.

F. Brenneman in this county, as related in the Tribune on July 8, the published story is absolutely true in every particular with the bare exception, since revealed, that Warden Hoyt was personated by one of the parties to the find. The narrative was taken verbatim from Mr. Brenneman by the writer in the presence of several leading business men of this place, and the story thus published was without the slightest alteration or abridgment. Mr.

Brenneman is a gentleman of unquestioned veracity, and his story must be accepted is now quite evident, the parties to the find deceived him in representing themselves to be Warden Hoyt and the father of James Hoover," but: with; the exception -of this imposition the published story of the finding of the gold nuggets will admit of no modification. It has cinoo becu learned that the horse and buggy which the strangers had hired belonged to Liveryman McCarthy, in this place, and in their eagerness to get away from the scene of their lucky find they drove to Petersburg, left the conveyance at the Petersburg hotel and took the. first train for without paying for the use of the team or notifying the hotel man at Petersburg to whom it belonged. Liveryman McCarthy did not recover his property until three days afterward. The same parties, still claiming to be Warden Hoyt and James Hoover, were discovered by a Record reporter in Philadelphia on July 6.

These are the facts connected with the case and the only misstatement made was in representing Warden Hoyt as one of the parties the find, when it is now learned that he was cleverly personated by another. W. 11. Graffius. Huntingdon, July 21.

R. A. O.

We have noticed two of the base ball members of the old Amateur club in town this week Blair Mattern, from DuBois, on a visit to relatives, and William Zimmerman, called on account of the serious illness of his father. Both are looking well. Their long -absence has not lessened their physical get up, and if they remain long enough we may call together all ot the old scions and have a tilt in the base ball arena with the youngsters who have stolen the name but not the glory attached thereto. Dr. G.

D. Arnold, formerly relief examiner in this district who has transferred to the Pennsylvania division west of Pitts burgh with headquarters, at Cleveland, having general charge of the relief depart ment on the Pennsylvania system, was in town yesterday interviewing old friends. His main business East, however, was to meet his wife and babies who are quartered at the old home in Juniata county, and his stop over here was made to enable him to catch a train which makes a stop at his former little village, which he availed himself of at a later hour in the day. The independent candidate is anomalous. and by his own method undertakes to right a grievance which does not exist outside of his own imagination, one which has been fully made manifest in every eflort under taken in this county for the past forty years with, we think, but one exception which can be readily recalled.

On the other hand, we can name many who have undertaken this game that are how posing as leaders in the several parties who would be willing to pay a handsome sum if this black spot could be wiped from their political escutcheon, but, Mepbistopheles like, it arises to plague them whenever they seek preferment from the party which they had undertaken to betray. "Don't leave your mother, Tom." A well contested game of base ball was played on the Athletic grounds in West Tyrone on Saturday afternoon between the Amateur club, of this place, and the Osceola club, of Osceola Mills. The umpire hailed from Osceola, and his decisions were of the square order and no kicking of any serious consequence was indulged in. But nevertheless our boys got left to the tune of 11 to 5 in favor of the boys who occupy an altitude of 800 feet above us. The crowding process upon the inner circle was the cause of one or two slight accidents, the recipients in both cases undertaking to stop the foul balls with their feet and legs instead of complying with the rules as laid down, which says that the hands must only be used in stopping a liner.

Commissioner John Penn Wighaman was in town on Saturday viewing the work on the new bridges which are being erected between this place and Birmingham. He informs us that he was not aware that any bridge at Elizabeth Furnsce required the united action of the commissioners of Blair and Huntingdon counties, as a morning contemporary could have us believe. Being familiar with the geographical outlines, he is favorably impressed that the section noted is exclusively Blair county territory and no infringement will be permitted or any concessions solicited. He had, however, the' audacity to remain over to partake of the forty pound turtle which was surreptituously from and without the knowledge of one of the leading citizens of the town which is honored with the name of the county from which he objects to receiving assistance in the building of bridges in outlying districts. For the benefit of our trout fishermen I quote from a recent letter received from a reliable parly, dated Crested "This place is certainly the fisherman's paradise.

There are four or five streams within a mile or two of town all larger than the Bald Eagle and clear of brush, so you can cast a fly and all abound in trout. Two of our men were out yesterday and caught 213. When they came home I received a two-gallou bucket full, the smallest of which was eight inches and the largest seventeen inches. I packed a box full, about forty, in ice and sent them down to our general superintendent in Pueblo and have eaten trout baked, fried and broiled three meals to-day. One day last week I left the office at 3 o'clock and was back at 6, and did not walk over two miles, and caught thirty-two nice ones, none over twelve inches long.

Last week also a party of six went out and fished two days and brought back an ordinary fish barrel packed full. They must have had over a thousand. Some time ago I wrote to you to send me some fishing tackle when I was located near Trinidad, as none could be had in that town or neighborhood. I received them but up here is a little town in the mountains with not over 800 people in it and the stores carry stocks of fishing tackle that would shame stores in some of our large cities.g I know all the tackle in all the stores in Pueblo would not equal some of the stock here. This is the supply and railioad shipping point for several silver mines, within a radius of seven or eight miles.

The silver is packed down the mountains on the backs of burrows or small jacks. I saw one silver ore dump yesterday, where, by actual weight, there was piled up $500,000 of ore waiting shipment.

But jthey are away behind) time and the question arises, What about the additional percentage which will go on all not paid by the 1st of September. The law states the books must be in the hands of the city treasurer by the; 1st of June. Councils were behind time in passing the millage ordinance and instead of the people having three months in which to pay their taxes will now have barely a month.

Several years ago councils passed a joint resolution exonerating the citizens from the additional percentage until the 1st of November, this action being taken because that year the city fathers were in the same boat at, they are this the millage was not set until after June- and the duplicates were not ready until August.

Will Have to Do Time. The Philadelphia Times of Saturday says: 'George Hagan, the well-known middleweight 6f this city, who whipped Jimmy Gluverson in Qearfield county, in May was arrested by Sheriff McCloskey, of Clearfield, at Green's hotel last night and taken to Clearfield, where he will answer to the charge of misdemeanor, preferred against both pugilists. After the fight both fighters entered bail for their appearance at court, and each was fined $125. Gluverson's backers paid his fine, but Hagan was unable to secure the wherewithal. His share of the receipts of the fight amounted to $50, and after gaining possession of this earn he rested in this city in fancied security.

Hagan was much incensedat his arrest, although the sheriff treated him with distinguished courtesy whenever a saloon was encountered in the march to the railroad sta-tian. The prize-fighter's wrist had been broken in a eparring match the night before and he carried his arm in a sling. Sheriff McCloskey said that Hagan would be given six months in the Clearfield jail." The Times is wrong in one very essential particular. Hagan did not whip Gluverson, but on the contrary was defeated in the fight. The New Sunday School.

The new Methodist Episcopal Sunday school recently organized in the Seventh ward met at 9 o'clock yesterday morning in the hall on Lexington avenue between Third and Fourth streets. The attendance of pupils was very large. Classes were formed and were taken charge of by the teachers recently selected. The singing was inspiriting, Miss Minnie Glass presiding at the organ. The opening address was made' by the superintendent, W.

L. Woodcock, who in the course of his remarks said it was not the intention to take scholars from other schools, but rather to induce children who were non-attendants to become interested in the Sunday school and thus good would result. The Tribune is pleased to note that the school has opened with such an encouraging number of pupils and hopes that it may increase its power for good. The officers and teachers are earnest workers. There will be a meeting of the Sunday school board on Tuesday evening next.
