The Latest Ross Child.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.
An extensive correspondence by tele-
graph has been progressing between Mr..
Ross and the authorities of Odell Illinois.
regarding the child there supposed to be
Charley Ross. A number of inquiries were
put TO the child, but his answers were so
unsatisfactory that it was finally resolved
to have his photograph taken at
Odell TO be sent here for ident-
fication by the father and mother
before taking further steps in the matter.
The photograph cannot reach here before
tomorrow. The parents have been so
often excited by false hopes that they
have no expectation that this supposed dis
covery will lead to any better result than
those which have peeceded it. Lewis
Dugan, the man arrested at Odell, ILL.,,
proves to be q resident of this city, who
formerly owned and drove an express
wagon. He has telegraphcd TO his friends
here for credentials as to his character.

After the dispatch had been received
several of the members of the club with
some of their friends concluded to give
them a supper on their return home and
accordingly made arrangements with
Fisher, the we'll known caterer of Rutland,
to provide the same. The boys were met
at the depot and escorted to the dining
rooms, where bountiful rcpast had been
spread in Fishers well known manner
The table was spread for twenty-four
guests, and in addition to the nine that
played, were Horace Baxter, G. III. Owen,
A. w. Higgins, DR.. S. w. Smyth, G. Z.
Mussey, VIM. G. Brown, j. o. Merrill,
and others, whose liberality furnished the
supper
The boys took hold with a will and
made short work of the good things pro-
vided after which ice cream and cigars
were provided and some little time spent in
social chat, when the boys separated for
their different homes, feeling well not
withstanding their defeat, and hoping yet
to get the best of the Activcs, of
whom they speak in terms of high praise.
A correspondent who sent a report of the
game writes as follows
If you can get a club in Rutland with
Archy Sheldon for pitcher, l.. Bushee, big
stop, j. W. Cramton, long stop, L. G..
Mason, little stop, and Charles Clark for
scorer, they may stand some chance. 1t is
no use to send common nine here to beat
the Actives. Are sorry we cannot name
the Nameless the best club IN the state. 1t
is but justice to say that the decisions of
the umpire, Mr.. Mead of West Rutland,
were fair and honorable, and both clubs
acquiesed without murmer in hlsdecision.
1t will be announcement for the Actiycs to
play only on Saturday afternoon as they
are all engaged in the mills. 1t will hardly
be expected the Actives will leave town to
play at present.
