Base Ball Notes.

Since their return from Rogersville
Junction, where they were defeated Satur-
day by the ''Blevinsn club, of Rogersville,
our boys the I" Condons," are not SO bouy-
ant in spirits as might be desired, and some
of them wear mourning on their badges.
But, though "slightly dis6gured," the boys
are "still in the ring" and have not
given up by any means. The uni
yersal expression is that they
went into the game over-confdent and with
out sufficient practice and understanding OF
of each other. Besides this, they labored
under the disadvantage of loosing sleep and
fatiguing ride on a belated freight train
but, nevertheless, they don't beg the ques
ton
It is understood thst the "Condons" vii
invite the ''Blevins" to Knoxville for a sec
ond game next week sometime. We advise
the boys to go to work and practice and ge
ready to do themselves justice before tina
time.
A meeting of the 'Condons will be helC
at the club room at 730 o'clock tonight
and full attendance is desired.

The Coming Fair.

The new race track on the grounds of the
on the Jack Jones farm, south of the river,
will be completed and ready for driving by
the middle of this week. Buildings will go
up rapidly, and every thing will be ready
for the fall meeting, which takes place De-
tober 25, 26, q and % next. No better
place for the grounds could have been Sc
lected, it being within Fights minutes walk
of the hotels and business center of our
city. The track is almost perfectly level,
afording all an opportunity of seeing the
horses in race from wire to wire. There
is no reason why this fall meeting should
not be grand success, and if we
are to form our opinion from
the very liberal premiums and purses to be
awarded (aggregating near $4,000, and all
to be paid in CASH, we should predict that
Knoxville will be taxed to her utmost to en-
| tertain the great crowd which this enter
prise viii bring during the last week of Oc-
tober. Letters are received from Ken
lucky and Middle Tennessee almost daily
asking for premium lists We will publish
it as soon as we can see copy of it. 1t is
now in the hands of competent parties,
who viii have it ready for distribution in a
short time. Let every man try and get
ready some kind of stock for the fair The
premiums and purses will all be paid in

SAVE YOUR MONEY
To Africa.

Mr.. EDITOR: Rev. J. M. Hall, of Len
oir's Loudon County, Tenn, will sail for
Liverpool and Africa on or about the 18th
of September. feel like congratulating
Mr.. Hall, upon the privilege of entering on
this tour of exploration, which seems to me
to be of no secondary importance among
the forty which are now on foot in the
Dark Continent. This trip is by the way of
the Mediterranean Sea, the city of Cairo
and the Red Sea; thence overland $50 miles
to Berber and thence up the Nile by Khan
town to the mouth of the Sabet River. About
that spot he thinks of making his head
quarters.

himself. He registered at first-class hotel

what, under ordinary circumstances, he
would have considered pretty comfortable
quarters, but with his elevated ideas and an
ticipations of what was going to be the ac.
commodations at a..frst- class place, he began
to raise objections to the hampered
up room, and demanded to be
shown to better room He SOON discov
cred, however. when the thing began to
shoot up skywards, to his chagrin that ht
was only seated in the elevator car, prepare
