RED STOCKINGS AND ATLAsTIcs.-Since
the illustrated papers have arrived with
pictures and particulars of the match be-
tween these two famous clubs. our local
base ball players have talked of nothing
else. The Red Stockings were beaten
by n scratch. aud the game throughout
was so handsomely contested that no
man could foresee the result. At the
close Of The ninth inning they stood 8
and 5. and two more innings were played
To determine the %yiotnrs. The Shuttle
Foots Of Hamilton hive received new life

IM%PRoMPrU RACE wILH A PAINFUL Ae-
cIpESr. Just before twilight, last even
ing, a 200 yards race was got up be-
tween two bay ponies, TO run immedi-
ately. over the base ball ground, for n
small sum and the honor of the thing.
Marshal Joe Dnmars rode one horse,
and City Trustee Dayton the other.
The Dumars horse got "A bad start, aud
took his own way pretty much 10 tho

turning from the ground, Dunars' horse
acted very r~estively. aud Ms he was pass
ing across lots. in the rear of Pritchard
& Co.'S warehouse formerly Cross d
Co. e.. the Pirth parted and the horse
threw his rider. The Marshal fell heavi-
~ upon n stake in the ground, striking
his right side and receiving n painful
hurt. Subsequent examination by a
surgeon, showed that Mr.. Dnmnrs was
more seriously injured than had at first
been supposed. One of his small RIBS
was broken. and it is feared the right
lung is impaired. This is n very untos

had called forth a largo crowd of specta-

SINGULAR FAeTl-A popular druggist
in town assures rs that his prescription
sales were several times greater before
the White Pine water was introduced
into Hamilton than since. lie ascribes
the falling of in his line TO the health Of
the city consequent on the purity of the
present water over that of the em-
poisoned spring from which we were be-
fore supplied. The argument will hard
ly bear criticism. Suppose we should
say that the people OF White Pine had
lost their appetite because the butchers
and Rrocers sold more provisions and
meats before freights came down in price
than sineel Would it be logical 10 ne
count for the discrepancy by saying that
our markets are beiter now than then,
and that therefore less grub is sold2 1t
might he hat population aud money had
something to do with both the decreased
sales OF provisions and bolnses. Good.

propoftionately the general health Of the
city; bnt there are other causes to ne
count for pioneer sickness and pharma-
ceutical profits.
