ventiOn went into executive session, re-
ceived the report of the Board of
Directors and resolved upon amendments
to the constitution. The new legislation
included re-enactment of the non-inter-
tween the American Association clubs or
its Alliance clubs and League clubs. This
will debar intercourse between tho League

League Associations, and result In the loes
of thousands of dollars to both organiza-
tions. The clubs opposing intercourse were

The Baltimore Club was asked to resign
membership, being Sl25 in arrears for dues.
This was flrebrand in the meeting. Mr..
Barnard, the representative OF the new
Baltimore Club, urged earnestly that the

to mislead the minds Of the people of Balti-
more in regard to the the new club. The
matter was finally compromised by accept
ing the resignation of the old Baltimore
Club, as managed by II. @. Myers.
A dispatch from manager q. G. Waite,

Mr.. Richards, Call.

1t has already been stated that Rev. Mad
ison A. Richards, pastor of st. Paul's NJ. L.
church, this city has received and accepted
a unanimous call from the Green Street M.
Il. church of Philadelphia, and at the next
session of the Wilmington Conference he
will be transferred. The Green street
church is one OF the three strongest and
most influential in Philadelphia, the other
two being the Arch street and Spring Gar
den street churches, and this is saying a
great deal when IL is called to mind that
the are 80 churches in all in that great city.
It has membership of over 800. The edi-
fee Is an exceedingly fine one, and hand
some parsonage is attached. Mr.. Richards
has been two years at St. Paul's and during
that time he has endeared himself to the
hearts al his congregation, and won very
general respect and esteem from our citi-
gems. During his pastorate he has accom-
plished great work not only In his strictly
pastoral duties but in the remodeling and
improvement Of the church edifice. He
may justly feel proud of what he hae dove:
His departure from this city will be received
with genuine regret

Boom For Bob. Lincoln,

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The SUMS Wash

Unsettled Peach Accounts.
lSmyrna Times. J


During the peach season our farmers who
shipped to Boston, experienced unusual
agrivations in regard to the passage of their
fruits over the railroads. The connecting
line from New York TO that CITY was the
New England road, which was frequently
behind time, putting the fruit in after the
market hours, thus causing in most cases q
considerable loss In value, and was besides
SO unfortunate as to have three rail-
road smashes. These losses SO far have
not been met, though we believe they have
not been utterly refused, The railroads
charges much higher rate of freight for
peaches because Of these liabilities, and
pocket the money In advance, while the
shippers who have lost both the fruit and
freight are kept in continued suspense and
made to bslisRe that the railroad has no
disposition to keep Its part Of the bargain.
Considerable correspondence has occurred
without effecting anything, and on Monday,
David j. Cummins and Robert II. Cummins
went on to Boston to see what the railroad
authorities intended to do about 1t.

a ToNGUELEss HORSE.

A Most Delicate Surgical Operation Per-
formed by a Wilmington Veterinary
Surgeon.
Morris Weldie g. Sons, the well-known
carriers, have In their possession the curiosity
of a tongueless horse, and DR.. X. j. Hanley,
the well-known veterinary surgeon has the
credit of performing one of the most difi-
cult and remarkable surgical feats known
to horse doctors. Some ten days ago cruel
driver nearly tore from its socket the tongue
of one of their most valuable horses. The
tongue was so badly lacerated as to be
almost ready TO fall out, and Mr.. Weldie
gave up the horse as lost, thinking all to be
done was to knock the horse In the head
and haul him away. The sufferings Of the
poor brute were intense.
Asa last resort DR.. Hanley was called in
and he took the animal In charge. He
amputated the tender member, leaving just
enough Of the tongue to be of use in eating,
and through his careful treatment the horse
has entirely recovered, and is at work. The
operation is a very unusual one.

Clothing House Robbed.

The clothing store of V. E. Holmes, No.
213 Market street, was entered by thieves
recently and the robbing has been kept very
quiet until this time. 1t seems that the
robbers first went into the lodge room In the
second story of Morrow's Building, adjoin-
ing, and getting out the window clambered
along the cornice, thus getting into the
second-story of the clothing house. They
took about $50 worth of clothing and es-
capped out the back door into Shipley street.
All efforts to apprehend the robbers have
