A "heavy weight" base ball club is being talked of about the Union depot. The nine will consist of a couple of baggage handlers, a ticket agent, a millionaire, a pugilist and four pick ups They will challenge the world as the best heavy weight club. The first game will be matched for a square meal. John Ferrell, who was struck by the Illinois Central locomotive a few days ago, 1s rapidly growing worse, He is at the poor house, and is receiving careful attention, He was struck on the right side of the head, and now the left side is badly swollen up. Serious results may not follow the accident, but matters begin to look bad for him now.

RAILROAD RACKET. A train was drawn from Patterson to New York on Tuesday by a watergas or hydrogen-burning 'engine. The inventor was on the engine, and the train made the schedule time, with a minnte and a half to spare. A report has leaked out that T. C.

Jones, passenger conductor on the east division of the Wabash, also one of the proprietors of the Tremont house, at Danville, has been appointed general passenger and ticket agent of the Lake Erie Western line, One good feature of the Wabash management is that they are not now discharging their men for each little accident that may occur. They think that new men are as liable to get into trouble as the older men are to repeat the offense. Business on the "little Wabash" narrow guage is reported booming. The C. A.

conductors and brakemen have adapted a new uniform. Engineer Brown, running the 47 on the Chicago division, was badly scalded by the bursting of a flue on Tuesday. Three thousand patents have been issued for car coupiers. The Master Car builders' Association has been unable to select any of them for a standard. The order of railroad conductors, with a membership of prohibits drunkenness or the sale of intoxicating liquors by its members; and makes "striking" a sufficient cause for dismissal.

of Baby Finger Amputated. Yesterday afternoon, George Weaver and his son George were stacking hay with a derrick stacker, on his farm four miles east of the city. The son got his hand caught and so injured by the ropes that it was necessary to have the middle finger of his right hand amputated at the metacarpal bone. The operation was performed by Dr. R.

L. Watson. It is probable that another finger of the same hand will have to be taken off yet, but the surgeon thinks that it will not be necessary. County Court. Margary Naftel, administratrix of the estate of William E.

Kyker, deceased, made her first and final report, showing receipts and disbursemens to date of report. Total amount received, amount disbursed, $2,290.20. Henry Murdhenke, of Palmer. Christian county, was appointed executor of the estate of Nancy Raney, deceased, late of Macon county; bond of $6,000 with J. M.

Simpson and Madison Curvey as sureties was approved and ordered entered of record. At Home. I. J. Chronister wishes to inform his many friends that he has resigned his position as policemen of Polliwog, and that he has also severed his connection with the gasoline stove business.

He has again settled at his old stand at the corner of Durfee street and Broadway, and has on hand a splendid stock of new fresh groceries, which he will dispose of at the lowest living prices. "Doc" will also sustain his past reputation for keeping op hand the best and fastest of freshest meats, which he knows how to serve to his patrons. Give him a call at his old stand. july20-1w Miss Helen L. Hood, of Chicago, entertained a number of ladies in the First M.

E. church, Tuesday afternoon on the subject of home protection work. Miss Hood is the state sponding secretary of the W. C. T.

U. She is a fluent talker and agreeable conversationalist and deserved a crowded audience. Rumor has it that Lou Bickes, the catcher for the Decatur Red Stockings, will be married to-day and his bride will be one of Decatur's fairest daugh- ters. It is the hope of Lou's many friends that he has made a happy "catch." In life's game of base ball may he never strike a foul, but rather may he make a "home run" every day in the evening. There will be a meeting of the democratic voters of the first precinct of this city, at Hose house No.

Carriages to select A few days ago we published a squib to the effect that the police and saloonists were organizing base ball teams to play a match game in the near future.

We learn from "private" sources that they will meet on the four-cornered arena in the course of a few weeks. The salconists are to furnish a "pitchex" for both nines, as the police have no one that can "All" that position. The contest will be for a "goblet" and a "silver handled billy." The "supplies" to be paid for by both teams. The police are good "batters," but it is behieved that the saloonists can "strike" the "pitcher" harder than the police, who will base their success on "errors" made by the saloonists. If the police fail to "get" as many "runs" as the saloonists "make," it is expected that the spectators will call for "time" and "strike" the "umpire" for a new "team." The saloonists are good on "flies" and are liable to "fill up" their "nine" with "professionals," who will introduce "new tricks" that will tend to "rattle" their opponents.

There is already some "squealing" about the saloonist's "pitcher" pitching for both sides, because it gives the saloonists "too much" the advantage, as their "pitcher" can throw "straight" when they are at the bat and "twist" them so as to create a "dizziness" in the hands of the police when they are "batting." There will be finger "smashers" bat "punches" arm "slings," "eye openers and closers" to add amusement for the spectators and "season" the entertainment. Base ballists admitted free. Those arriving "too late" to "get in" wi'l not be allowed to decorate the lumber piles, freight cars or trees bordering the grounds. Fashionable people will be permitted to drive up in thelr fine carriages and look over the fence. Tommy Andrews is said to be one of the "heavy men" in the new scheme.

The Mania Still Raging. Fruit "Fakers." For sometime Dr. J. N. Bills had been promising himself that he would have several mischievous boys arrested for stealing fruit from his orchard on South Broadway.

Yesterday he swore out a warrant for the arrest of Ed Hickey and Hogan Graves, both aged 17 years of age. Marshal Hewes made the arrest and the young fruit "fakers" were put in the calaboose to await their trials, which will take place in Justice Albert's court this afternoon at 1 o'clock. Mr. Bills says that he has been bothered a great deal with a number of boys who have frequently visited his fruit farm and stolen and. destroyed a great deal of his fine fruit MARRIED.
