institution, as the score indicated Mt the
close. The former made 81 runs; the
latter 40 Scott, of pea nut fame, was
the catcher. Whether he used his hands
or mouth most for that purpose, our
informant was not certain. It ia GER.

The victim was found lying about a

two dollars and costs. That amount
he did not happen to have about his

FIRE1N KIRKwooD.-Yesterday about
IL O'Clock the residence of Mrs. Helm
lein, in Kirkwood, was discovered to be
on fire. The church and other bells in
the place were rung, and crowd soon
gathered. Having no fire department
each man considered himself fire en-
CINE and went to work carrying water
in pals. So vigilantly and effectively
was this mode of procedure conducted
that the flames were extinguished be-
fore damages exceeding one hundred
and fifty dollars were sustained.
The fire was first observed in the roof
and near chimney. 1t Is generally
believed to have originated from de-
fective hue. The escape from total
destruction was a narrow one. as the
roof was very dry and the facilities for
fighting the fire 6end not of the most
approved kind.

INJUNCTION GRANTED.-We made
mention several days since that theap-
plicatiou for an injunction made by the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
to restrain the authorities of Marshall
county from collecting taxes, had been
argued before Judge Jackson at Par
kers burg, and that the decision had
been reserved. Yesterday we heard
that Judge J. had granted the iujunc-
ton until August, when the argument
is to be heard by Chief Justice Chase,
sitting as Judge of the U. S. Circuit
Court in this State.

BACK RIVER DAM.-We were assured,
yesterday, that the construction OF a
dam across Back River had been COM
menced by the Government contractor.
We understand that the location of the
work is all that our friends over in
Bridgeport could desire, beginning, as
it does, at point below the mouth OF
Indian Wheeling Creek and running
diagonally across the stream, striking
the opposite shore just south of the
bridge. 1t will be seen that this will
give our neighbors harbor with suf-
fcient depth of water to float boats OF
pretty large tonnage during almost the
entire business season. The structure
is o be seven feet high, and, it is said,
will increase the depth of water in the
channel on this side OF the Island
eighteen inches. II these anticipations
are realized, we guess all parties will
be satisfied.

three parties whom we deemed entirely
reliable. Yesterday we were told that
Mr.. O'Brien was still living, although
In a critical condition. We regret ex-
ceedingly that such an error should
have crept into our columns, as it must
give pain 10 the parties intimately con-
nected with the victim of the accident.
