The schooner II. G. Richards, coal
morning, bearing the appearance of
having been in collision outside, during
the passage. Upon inquiry it was learn
ed that about 2 "A. NJ, last Wednesday,
when between three and four miles east
OF Beaver light, she was run into by the
schooner Jesse Hoyt, also bound to
Milwaukee with cargo OF coal. The
Eoyt struck the Richards stem on, a lit
tie abaft of the main rigging on the port
side, breaking her rail, quickwork, and
several stanchions, cutting through the
covering board and three upper strakes
of outside plank, and splitting her main
sail from head to foot. The shock was
very severe, and had the Richards not
been q new vessel she must have gone to
the bottom, as the blow would have cut
her much deeper than it did. The
Hoyt lost her jibboom, bowsprit, head
pied in getting the vessels clear from
each other. As they separated the cap
tain of the Hoyt asked the captain of
the Richards to remain near him, as the
Hoyt was leaking badly. Tbs could
not be done however, owing TO the ne
cessity of patching up the break III the
hull of the Richards, which consumed
considerable time, and when it was COM
pleted the Hoyt had passed out of sight
in the darkness. The mate Of the Rich
ards says the weather was not thick
when the collision occurred, neither was
it so very dark. The Richards was on
the starboard tack, and the Hoyt had
her port tacks aboard. This gave the
former the right of way and throws the
responsibility of the collision on the lat
ter. The damage sustained by the
Richards can be repaired for $500, while
it may cost more to repair the Hoyt's
injuries.

THE match game of base ball between
the Twin City Club, of Depere, and the
Manitowoc boys, was played-or partly
played-on Saturday afternoon, the
AIanitowoc Club coming out second best.
the score standing DC for the Twin Cities
and Is for the opposite side. The game
was called at about clock, and shortly
after the Depere boys went to bat VIC
lent rain storm set in, which caused the
large number Of spectators and the
members Of the two Gibbs to skedaddle
to the city for shelter, the majority of
them getting completely drenched.
hour, after which the grounds were
fixed up with the aid Of load of saw
dust, and the game continued, both
clubs laboring under the disadvantages
consequent to the ground being wet and
in many places muddy. Only five in
nings were played. At the close of the
first inning the Depere boys were IL
tallies ahead, but their opponents gained
on them steadily, and "white- washed"
them on the fourth inning. julie Nelson,
the surest player on the Manitowoe side,
had thumb knocked out of joint the
very first thing, and showed some clear
grit by taking every ball that came with
in his reach afterwards-ma making some
magnificent catches from the bat. Geo.
Guyles, another of our best players,
was disabled in practice game few
days previous, and his place, as also
that of Jos. Villas, the pitcher, had to be
filled by a less competent player. In
view of these facts, the boys played an
excellent game, and no doubt existed
that, had the nine innings been played,
the Depere boys would have been twax-
ed" although they played excellently,
their lett fielder making one splendid
catch on the run. The young gentle
men comprising the Depere Club are
nice set of fellows, and we hope enjoyed
their visit to our city in spite of the
rain.

DEAR SIR:
Since receiving the Improvements

highly pleased with the working of my
Buckeye Table Rake Reaper and Mower.
As L set the machine up myself, and not
understanding it, it did not satisfy me,
bat after having the machine put in or
der, gave me perfece satisfaction. There
is no machine made, in my opinion, that
lays nicer gavel for the binder. The
machine is light draft, durable, and a
