base HaII Accident at HydevilIe.

The game of base ball between the Ac-
tives of Fairhaven and the Independents of
Hydeyllle, on the grounds of the latter,
was brought to premature close during
the first half of the first inning, by the
breaking of the leg of Mr. John Langdon,
the pitcher and captain OF the lndepcnd-
cnts, who had the field with one man out,
the second having made his third base, and
on attempting to steal home was put out
by Mr.. Langdon. The umpire's decision
was scarcely heard before the cry came
that Mr.. Langdon's leg was broken. On
examination it was discovered that both
bones of the right leg were broken just
above the ankle.
The accident was caused by a collision
between the bascman, Mr.. Carroll, and
Langdon, the former running against the
latter in attempting to reach the home
base.
The accident was deeply regretted by
both mines, AS well as three hundred spccta-
tors who were present to witness the game.
Conveyance was at once procured and 4
delegate from each nine accompanied him
to his home in Castleton. Drs, Sanford
Burton and Nichols were summoned and
all that skill could accomplish was done foi
the sufferer. BASE BALL PLAYER.

ATLANTA, Sept. 81.
The Grand Lodge of /. o. o. F. con
cluded its annual session this afternoon.
The week has been one of continued fes-
livity and the honorcd guests of our city,
from all parts of the country, as they pub
licly express themselves, have gained a
most favorable impression of the character
and enterprise of Atlanta and the noted
Inequalities of its citizens. So far as they
and their widespread influence go the
Ratchet of sectional difference and discus
sion is buried for ever.
There has been much important leglsla-
ton today. The Grand Lodge adopted
uniform for the patriarchial order through
out the country Several appeal cases
one was the case of Morning Star lodge of
New York The report of the committee
on the revised ritual of the order was
affirmed. The improved statutes of the
order is shown by the report of the com
mittee on returns. In relation to the
movement to secure funds TO finish the
Washington national monument, it was re-
solved that the II. w. Grand Lodge is in
full sympathy with said monument and do
most fully and cordially commend the plan
and approve of the appeal now being made
to the people Of our country for pccuniary
assistance to aid in this great and
patriotic enterprise and do most cheerfully
commend the same to the membership
comprising the lodges and encampmerts
Immediately subordinate TO this grand
lodge and TO all grand and subordinate
lodges and cncampments throughout. The
entire jurisdiction for such pecuniaIy as

with existing regulations. The report of

The Great Single Scull Race Brown
the Winner.
Sr. JOINS. n. b.. Sept. oG.

ST. JOINS, N. t., Sept. 2G
After many more delays and postpone
ments than appeared to he necessary, the
great single scull race between Geo. Brown
Of Halifax and L. Morris of Pittsburg, Pa
was rowcd on the kcnncbcccass at 3 D. m
to-day, in the presence of two thousand
spectators. The course was the same as
tina; over which the. Inflated Rcnforih and
his gallant Tyne crew pulled few years
since, and was five miles in length
After the fizzlc of yesterday there was
very little excitement. Brown was favor
tic from the start ten to three, finding few
takers. AT seven o'clock this morning
Brown was pronounced to be in good con
dition for rowing, and DR. Thomas Walker,
referee and starter, was about to call the
race when it was discovered that the stake
boats had been neglected and were not in
position, this blundcrng was the cause Of
|, two hours delay. In the meantime n fresh
breeze sprang up rendering the river rough
and unfit. This caused further post
poncmcnt till three o'clock, when the
water was in fit condition and the race
called.
The toss was won by Morris, who selected
the inside. The men were in capital con-
dition and presented fine appearance.
Brown was quite nervous, fearing he might
be delayed another day, but the moment
the race was called he recovered and pre-
pared himself for the contest. Morris was
self possessed and waited orders from his
quarters.
At three o'clock the word was given.
The men dipped their oars at the same time
and the shells flew over the course, Brown
making 80 strokes and Morris Al strokes
per-minute. The excitement was now
| great, when Morris took slight lead till
on turning the stake boat was
reached, where Brown in making the turn.
shot ahead of his opponent a full length.
This advantage he preserved to the end,
reaching the goal after magnificent squirt,
leaving his rival fully two lengths behind.
Time, 81 minutes.
The race throughout was holly contested,
and is considered by competent judges ia
be the best encounter ever witnessed in
these waters. AT the conclusion of the
race Brown was escorted to his quarters.
He appeared on the verandah, and after
bowling to the people proposed three cheers
for Morris, which were Justify given, The
race was for 80, 900 side.

Germany and Porto Rico The Grant
Doctrine.

New York, Sept. %.
A Washington special of last night sats:
The reported Porto Rico annexation story
has drawn the fire of both Russia and the
United States. and was in reality only part
of Il scheme of Bismarck to conyulsc Eu-
rope. Notwithstanding the repeated de-
claratious Of the state department that
there is no truth in the asserted aspi atoms
of Germany to secure foothold in Amcr-
can waters, it is known thai Secretary Fish
upon the first intmalion of the report
promptly inquired if there was amy foun-
dation for it. Now comes the startling in
tclligcncc that Russia is lully advised of
the intention of Bismarck to acquire Il
foolhold in America, and with the assur-
ancc that we will not permit the transfer of
colonial possessions in America from one
European nation to another, is prepared to
ally herself with the United States in the
event that Germany determines to force
her aspirations. The dispatches OF the 81

In the event thai the state department
adopts and adhcres to the doctrine laid
down in the message OF 1869, which have
designated rs the "Grant' doctrine. il will
he construed rs determination ON the part
of this government not to allow Germany
TO have even depot or naval station in
American waters. Moreover, in sympath-
zing with the Carlst movement and the
refusal on her part to recognize Scrrano,
which fact is duly affirmed by official dis
patches received tonight, it is regarded as
an omen Of war in which the United States
will necessarily he involved, unless the

Grant that European governments having

can no longer transfer them from one
power to another, should he acquicsccd in

ssKaty Did-Knty DIdn't.r

The "Katy King mystery has been
solved. A lazy fellow leaned up against
the door of the cabinet from which the
esprit" was wont to enter, and Katy didn't
"come to time" She was afterwards
chased across the field by an "outside bar
barian," having been disodgcd from her
hiding-place in the woodshed. She was
dressed in boys clothes and begged not to
be exposed as her father was rich and re-
spectacle, But Katy has been voted a
humbug This "Katy King" has had quite
run in the newspapers, and has rivalled
even the Eddy boys in Chittendcn. If peo-
pie would use their ordinary reasoning fac
ulties in the investigation of these "won-
ders," as they do in other matters, there
would be fewer believers, and sensational
newspaper writers would seek other en-
ployment than writing them into notice.

SATURDAY., Sept 26.-The grand jury

Belt remembered, dc :: That in accordance
with the requirements of law in such case
made and provided we have visited and ex-
amned the county Jail in and for SAID
county that we find the same clean and
well kept so far as we have been able to
discover that the inmates are as well
cared for as the general condition of the
Jail as to convenience, warmth and venti-
lation will permit.
We further say that the Jail building is
greatly out of repair, and in SO many ways,
and to such an extent that we forbear par
'icularizing that the said Jail is, taken
as a (w)hole, II disgrace and shame to
the intelligence of the county.
That we deem it inexpedient to repair
said Jail, unless it should be for tempo
rary purpose.
That we recommend that the Jail prop
erty belonging TO the county be disposed
of, and that new Jail suitable, proper and
sufficient for the wants of the county be
erected, and that the same be done without
any unnecessary delay.
