ASK BALL enthusiasm, ic had been running high in this city, fora week previous, culminated Tues day afternoon ii the most masterly exposition (of its kind i of the National game witnessed in this at times, sorely af- ilicted, but patient and much enduring community. Every body in town that could do so turned" out to witness the struggle between the Nicholas block and Selby block teams, and it is but fair to the players to say that all came away well satisfied with the amusement afforded. Both teams wore uniforms--the Nicholas block being decked out in white caps, black sweaters, white overalls- tucked at tho knee--and black stockings. The Selby block people wore blue overalls, white stockings, white sweaters and black caps. The parade was one of the most amusing features of the day.

At about 3:30 tho two teams started for the ball grounds. Bob Boyd led the procession, and carried a brace of ugly looking Colts navy revolvers, which at the ball grounds were handed to the two umpires, Messrs. J. W. Cassiughain and R.

M. Voorhees. Those instruments of destruction wore turned over to the urn pircs not for purposes of intimidation, but as a precautionary measure, only. Following Boyd in the procession came the Nicholas building team, carrying banners upon which was inscribed amus ing and good naturcd ridicule of their opponents. Following them came thi Selby block team, headed by their cap W.

McMannis, and carrying pen Then followed tho carriage containing the umpires, after which came tho "ambu'anco'' cart, bearing throe largo cans, labeled "Witch "Arnica." and "St. Jacobs Oil." Arrived at the grounds, the two teams lined up in the follow order, on the score card: Nicholas Block. PO'lTloss. Selby Klock G. CusuinKlmm C.

Lewis Roderick, an old and well known farmer resident of Franklin township, died of dropsy, last Sunday. His age was about seventy-two. He was an upright, worthy man, and was greatly esteemed by all who knew him. Rev. Jones conducted the funeral services, at late home of deceased, on Tuesday, following which tho remains wore interred in the burial ground at Franklin church.

Sentenced to the Penitentiary, The two Wrjglit. boys, Newton aged about 21 years, and James a few years younger, who were found guilty, at the present term of court, of burglarizing the Gua.lt mill in the vicinity of West Carlisle, received their sentences, Tuesday. Newton, the elder, will do service for the State, in the Ohio penitentiary for a period of three years. The younger boy got off with a one year en- tenco, it appearing that he had been persuaded by his elder brother to participate in the crime. Populist Congressional Convention.

The Populists of this Congressional district, pursuant to call, met in New Philadelphia on last Friday and nominated Horace Whitecomb, of Uhrichsville, for congress: chose C. A. Reader, of Wooster, and W. I. Hood, of New Philadelphia, delegates to the National Populist convention to be held in St.

Louis, July 22, and elected A. S. Light- waiter, of New Philadelphia, presidential elector. Delegates were only present from Tuscarawas and Wayne counties. Coxey and Seitz were indorsed for delegates at large.

The Glorious Fourth. Every indication now points to a grand demonstration here on the 4th of July. Several parties have been busily engaged during the past week, throughout the county, putting up flaming and patriotic posters, calling attention to the great celebration, and a monster crowd will no doubt be in attendance. The push and enterprise displayed by those at the head of the project, who are sparing neither labor nor pains to make the occasion a notable one, is the beet guar- rantee of their success. Coshocton will be the place to come to on the Fourth.

First Flight of the Season. The first flight of the season of Homing pigeons took place from Coshocton, last Sunday. About 150 birds, belonging to the Pittsburg and Birmingham, Homing clubs, were sent hero to make the race. The weather was clear, but the wind was strong against the birds, and greatly impeded their Sight. When the birds were liberated from the baskets, they circled around in the air for a considerable time before getting their bearings and starting on the long journey home.

No report has been received here from Birmingham, as to the arrival of their birds. The first bird- to reach the home loft in Pittsburg. is owned by a Mr. Skilcs, of Pigeon Hill. It arrived at p.

flying the distance, 103 miles, in 185 minutes, making an average of 930 yards per minute. The next to arrive were two birds owned by W. H. Hildebrocbt, they making an averaged speed of yards per minute. J.

A. Allen, of Hamilton-ave, had four to arrive making an average speed of 02S4 yards per minute. did not play, and one inn ing was enough for O. W. 'McMannis the latter place being taken by the back-stop, Harry Hack.

After the two umpires had bet in structcd in the rudiments of the game- play was called and the trouble began with the Nicholas block at the bat. HIS cut represent Bovd--w a the first victin called up--in his in effectual attempt to connect with th ball, which per sisted in gctt past the batter be fore he could mak up his i strike at it. Aftc three unsuccessfu efforts.Bob was re tired, and with a glance at the pitche full of reproach, his face wearing an pression of keen disappointment, Bo walked sorrowfully away. But Bob re deemed himself later. After missin every chance offered him on third base ho finally succeeded in stopping a slo bounder.

This unexpected and surpm ing feat was greatcd by a burst of ap plause from the spectators, and Bob with a true grand-stand bow, modestl lifted his cap in response. UD A I HAM, who a been there before was the next ma up, and his correc and graceful position at bat. made- it apparent that something was about to happen, and it did. Bud rapped the fi good one that came along for a single, and trotted down to first. This half of the first inning was full of features, but perhaps it will be best not to speak to freely of them.

We know the umpires are honorable, upright men, and that their intentions were gilt-edged, and we don't want to call attention to any little inaccuracies in decisions, such as calling two balls on the batter, and when the third was pitched yelling three strikes and out. Neither do we deem it necessary to dwell on the fact that a base runner was invariably declared out, when the baseman could block the way to the base long enough to get the ball and touch the runner. When a decision on a play which the umpires did not see was called for, attorney Voorhees decided the matter in true legal way, in accordance with the preponderance of the evidence. We mention little matters in no fault-finding mood, but merely as incidents. Personally we were in raptures over the decisions of the umpires, but we do believe that with study and practice, and plenty of it, they would show marked improvement.

After piling up four scores in the first half, the Nicholas block team was retired, and C. B. McCoy, for the Selby's, opened up the half for his side by repeating Boyd's performance. Dave Williams followed with a corking single. Child's, a true prototype of his namesake of tho Clevelands, waited for four balls and walked to first.

Wcrnettc, C. McManus, Smith and Brooke, also made hits, but O. W. McMannis could not connect and was out. Clarence Hay retired the side, after five runs had been made.

Only four innings were played, owing to the fact, perhaps, that the grounds were not supplied with olii trie light facilities for an all night Up to tho close of the third inning, when catcher McCoy, who was doing good work behind the Kit. his hand hurt, the Solbv block m.iintained I if defeat for the Nicholas bloek having a deinoralfejng rap- tain who plainly showed that he feared the worst.

They wanted to continue, the game, but as the orb of day was rapidly sinking behind iho hills, and tho majority of both teams ma assembled about the arnica wagon to compare bruises and administer healing lotions, it was deemed best to declare the contest off, which the umpires mercifully did, a decision the correctness of which went undisputed. 8coni: ur ISMNO.N. 1 2 4 Nicholas Block 4 i) Block 0 15 4--J1 The next day tho'air wau full of challenge, to the winners, but Cnpt.

A Great Dry Goods and Carpet House Visit This Firm for Some Matchless Bargains. 1,200 Fine Shirt Waists will be placed onr sale at pur store Saturday morning, May, 30--Decoration Day--at 500 on the dollar. We purchased all of a manufactured line at half price.

Lot four, 300 Waists will go at 7pc. Now these waists were all made to sell at soc, 75C, and $1.25 all good styles, full bishop sleeves, the newest collars, and every waist laundried up to perfection. 1,200 waists looks looks like a big lot, but nothing is too large for the Ransom Dry Goods Co. to buy for their customers, if the price is low enough.

Somebody that is evidently looking for trouble, lias been amusing hiuiHclf of late by turning horses loose when left hitched to the rack at west side of public in tho evenings. Last Hatur- cvemng a horse hitched to buggy was turned loose from this rack. Mr. J. J.

Uebel, tho owner, got ready to return home, after finishing the business that brought him to town, he found that his rig wns gone. Tho hitch- strap had been out in two, and it was at first thoughl'that tho outfit had beeq ntolco. and buggy wore found, intact, near Mr. Uebol's homo in Keeno township. Wednesday evening another horse, hitched to a buggy, was turned loose from tho same rack, lint the horse did not proceed far before ho was stopped by an attache of tho McCor mick Bros, show, giving an exhibition here, and was returned to tho owner.

Should the perpetrator of these outrages bo discovered, he will bo severely dealt with. The Deed of Brutes. Last Monday night, at Dennison, a friendless sixteen years old girl, named Mary McGee, who was on her way homo to Pittsburg from Zancavillo, and who had gone to Dennison from this city, on the evening accommodation the victim of a nameless outrage, perpetrated upon her by two brutes in the shape of men. Seeing her sitting in the waiting room at tho station, alono and unprotected, a scoundrel named Plunkot accosted her, and learning of her friendless condition, offered to take her to his homo to spend the night. Tho poor giri thankfully accepted tho offer, and was conducted to a lonely spot, where Plunket and a pal named Frank Vickere, who.

it is said, hails from near Cones- villc, in this county, and who had skulked along behind, brutally assaulted her, despite her agonizing screams and desperate struggles. Both men have since been arrested and fully identified by the young girl. The fooling against tho perpetrators of the brutal outrage is in tense, and they will probably receive, as they deserve, tho severest penalty for their disgusting offense, tho law provides. Held to Answer a Serious Charge. Howard Bradburn, was brought here from Newark, Wednesday night, charged with assaulting Minnie, the thirteen years old daughter of Mr.

Lev! Vansicklo, who resides in what is known as Prosscr Hollow, at lower end of Jackson township. Bradburn was arraigned in Esquire Mortley's court yesterday, and the evidence adduced shows that ho had assaulted the young girl with intent to rape. Ho was only prevented from accomplishing his foul purpose by the unexpected appearance upon tho scene of the girl's father. Foiled in his dastardly attempt, and fearing tho consequences, Bradburn at once sought safety in flgbt. Vansickle notified the authorities here, of the attempted outrage, and sheriff Clark, suspecting that Bradburn would pass through Newark, having gone in that direction, telegraphed a description of tho man to tho authorities there, requesting them to bo on the look out for him, and a few hours later receiving a telegram stating that they had tho man in custody.

At the hearing before 'Squire Mortley, tho prisoner was lxund to await the aetion of grand jury, in the sum of 8300.
