Squire Hayes says, talking about
good batters, that Henry beats them
all; he makes three home runs every

Henry Hayes sprained his ankle
during the game.
The Morgantown Cornet Band very
kindly furnished the music for the
occasion. This Band plays excel
lently and the boys feel very CRATE
full to them for their attention.
After the game on Saturday a
floral offering was received by the
club, accompanied by a card con-
tanning the following inscription: For
the Rough and Ready Base Ball Club,
champion players of West Virginia,
with the compliments of Misses Mary
and Lily Hagans. The club immedi-
ately returned thanks to the ladies
for the elegant boquet, and Saturday
evening whenever you saw tall and
stately form slowly moving down the
street, with a tasty 6outonniere APP
pended Ia the lapel of his coat, look
ing altogether as though oppressed
with a sense of his dignity you might
be assured that he was a Knight of
Diamond. The offering consisted of
of nine small boquets for the players
and large one for Will Moorhead,
Secretary and Manager. The boys
wore theirs on their coats, but Moor
head wore his ON the mantel in a
vase.

Since the foundation of the West
Virginia University, it has had for
President gentlemen Of the Republi-
can faith the entire time with the
exception of one year. Only three
years ago, the President Of that
institution, Rev. j. r. Thompson,
wrote to Secretary Dorsey, of the
Republican National Committee, as
follows:
eff you put men and sinews here
at once the Republicans will carry it
West virginia) in October"
Twenty-Five thousand dollars, it
seems was the sum asked for.
We don't remember that the Re
publican papers Of the State had any
criticisms to make of the University
management at this time. Nothing
partisan as long as it was in the in
terest Of the Republican party. Is it
only partisan when it ceases to be run
in that interest?-Register.

There has been good deal said
lately in Republican papers about pol
itics in the West Virginia University.
Ithas been an object to make it ap-
pear that the head of the University
during the last school year was pol
itician. And to accomplish this OBJ
ject enough lying has been done, if it
were felony to lie, to fll the peni-
tertiary full of Republican editors
and correspondents.
The Republicans had the presiden-
cy of the University for good many
years, the last one to occupy that po-
sition being a divine, Rev. John R.
Thompson. He was politician Of
the baser sort, and unfortunately fol
him he has written letters, which are
in existence, showing that he was on
terms Of political intimacy and friend
ship with Dorsey. Rev. Thompson
believed in the power of money, and
preacher Of the Gospel as he was, de.
nouncing sin and corruption from
the pulpit, he found time on Septem
Der Z, 1880, to write letter to Dorsey
asking that'men and money be sent
to this State, saying 1If you put mer
and sineios here at once the Republi
cans will carry it West vmginia) in
October"
This is commended to our Repub
lican brethren for their Sunday nigh,
consideration.-Sentinel.

A correspondent Of the Register
reads the Democracy timely lecture
on the subject of organization. He
shows how easily large majority
may be overcome by careful and
thorough organization on the part Of
the minority. This is matter that
we would commend to every Demo
crat in the State and especially to ell
executive committees. With a little
care BY the Democracy, the republi-
cans will never get into power in
this State.

Every citizen should subscribe and
pay for newspaper printed in his
own county. 1t is right and advisa-
BILE to take city paper, or several of
them, if it can be afforded, but to
take city weekly to the exclusion
of the home paper, is the embodi-
ment of foolishness. OF course, a
county paper, with one or two thou
sand subscribers, cannot be issued
for the same that city paper with
100000 subscribers can. The rea-
sons are too obvious to mention.
Ne paper that goes to the fireside
Of the farmer is SO eagerly read as
the county paper. The head Of the
family and the wife and the children,
await with impatience it's coming
and examine its columns with great
interest. 1t is the county paper that
records the deaths and marriages of
the persons Of your acquaintance;
that informs you of holding courts,
the names of jurors, the cases to be
tried and the parties interested-in
fact, that gives you all the legal news
and informs you of all other local
matters of interest. This is news
that no city paper can furnish, and
if man should receive q dozen of
city newspapers he still could not
do without good local paper

that If the New York delegation to
the next national convention should
be unanimous for Mr.. Tilden, "there
will be little objection from any quar-
ter"
That is assuming a good deal for
the New York delegation and good
deal more for Mr. Tilden's eligibility.
The notion that Mr.. Tilden will
ever again become the nominee Of the
Democratic party is all stuff. The
continued agitation Of the matter in
that shape is nonsense.
1t deprives the Democratic party
of the natural and legitimate benefit
which accrues from the theft Of the
presidency by the Republicans. 1t
detracts from the force of the stigma
which should be fastened upon the
Republican party for that crime.
There is no mere personal injury to
Mr.. Tilden that this great country
or great political party is seriously
concerned about redressing. That is
belittling the whole matter.
1t is not Mr.. Tilden's personal or
political ambition about which the
country is seriously concerned or
about which the righteous indigna-
ton of the country has been aroused,
or about which the highest sense Of
honor and patriotism is being period
ically stirred and refuses to be quiet
ed until that great national wrong
has been redressed; but it is rather
the wrong to a great party, represent
ing great principles which had been
approved by a majority of the people
and which had been chosen by a ma
jority of the people to administer the
Office of President. Mr.. Tilden was
simply the instrument of that party,
the exponent of its platform and pol
icy.
The wrong to Mr.. Tilden is a mere
bagatelle. The wrong is to the peo-
ple-to the whole people-but above
and beyond all to the party, which
represented majority Of the people.
To put it on any lower plan is to OBJ
scure the force of the fact at it exists.
To put forward Mr.. Tilden's person
atty as the only vehicle Of redress
and the only medium through which
the Democratic party may be vindi-
Gated and the wrong avenged is to
throw away the prime motive and the
controlling incentive to have that ma
tional wrong passed upon by the peo-
pie.
We expect to see the Democratic
party go into the next campaign with
as firm a purpose as ever to avenge
that wrong. We expect to see it
done too, without Mr.. Tilden as
the standard bearer. We do not re-
gard Mr.. Tilden as necessity to the
complete vindication of the party that
has been wronged and the punish
ment of the party that did the wrong.
On the contrary we expect to see
the Democrats go into the campaign
without Mr.. Tilden. We are sorry
for the necessity that will compel it.
But Mr.. Tilden is old and decrepit
unfit for the strain of a campaign
or the burdens of the executive office.
He would not live through the term
if indeed he lived through the cam
paign.
Mr.. Tilden will not be the next
president, nor even the nominee Of
the Democratic party for that posi-
ton. To discuss his candidacy is
both Improbable and misleading.

the investigating attention of our
republican friends is the Marshal

THE WANDERING LEW.

A New Treatment of the Old Legend.
The latest work of the poetcss who sits upon
the throne of Roumania and writes under the
nom de plume Of "Carmen SYLVIA" is a new
treatment of the oh-told tale Of Ahasuerus,
the Wandering Jew. 1t has been well re-
marked that one may interpret this legend as
a type of its own persistence. Once more a
new turn has been given to the old myth, and
"Carmen Sylva's" version is not the least
fortunate and profound. Unhappily, as is
too often the case with this writer, the treat
ment is not quite level with the conception.
Jehovah" is the name Of this poem, but the
writer does not sing of the God Of Israel, but
Of the athestical skeptc, the God-seeking,
beliei-sceking Jew, who cannot die until he
has found Him. Since Goethe's identified
ton Of the legend with the history Of strug-
Cling humanity, this idea is not knew. But It
is both bold and new to treat IT, as Carmen
Sylvia" has done, from a wholly modern
we almost said DArwinian-point Of view.
The wandering OF her Ahasuerus are under
taken TO find proofs of the existence Of God.

tender as well as powerful is the scene in
which he comprehends that God is the life Of
the universe. He falls on his knees and
cries: "My God. my God, my God

Thee in sacrifice and remuneration in sin and
madness did | seek Thee. | have suffered all
woe on earth, have drunk of all grief Doubt

eyes see. God is in life." And, having thus
| spoken, the spell that bound him is broken,
and he dies. "Gott list i'm Werden' is the
German version, Of which "lfe" is an incom.
plete rendering but the English language, so
poor in philosophical terms, can only approx
imately cover this with the clumsy "becom-

A SINGULAR STORY.

Revival of n Sensation of Thirty Years Ago
by a Recent Indiana Trial.
From the indianapolis Times.
primitive sensation has been revived by a
trial now in progress in Judge Walkers court
The case is entitled Mary Iloltzworth VS..
William IL. Forman and Enoch Reed and is
a suit for possession of four acres of land near
New Augusta and $500 damages for the de-
tention thereof. Thirty years ago Mary Heck
man, the daughter of Joseph Hickman,
well-todo farmer, was betrayed by her lover,
and when her shame could no longer be con-
cealed, she was driven from home in disgrace.
Whittier she went was a mystery no one could
solve, and finally the theory was accepted that
she had been murdered and her body thrown
in White river. Suspicion pointed at the one
with whom she had been intimate, and at one
time the circumstantial evidence seemed so
strong against him that he was about to be
arrested for the crime Of murder. Like all
sensations, however, it was quickly forgotten
and those who had known Mary Hickman
gave her up as lost. Her father died few
years later, and, with soft spot in his heart
for his ering daughter, he bequeathed her an
equal share with the rest Of the children in his
estate. Last fall she returned and at once
took steps to obtain her rights under the will.
The land in which she had an interest," after
being in possession of the surviving members
OF the family for many years, had passed into
the hands Of strangers, who naturally disputed
her claim. She sought her mother-decrepit
with age and sonow-and when she entered
the old house she was recognized and greeted
with the words, "This is my daughter Mary"
She soon afterward began the suit now on
trial. 1t appears that when she met her
fathers wrath she fled to her lover and be-
sought him to make good his wrong. He re-
fused, but gave her money, and she went to
Cincinnati, where she was married to a man
named Schlusser. They removed to Lafayette,
and after his death she was united to Holz-
worth. She is now past so years old. For
man and Reed are making their defense TO the
suit under the statute OF limitation and also
dispute her identity. They further set forth
that her mother has doubts of her identity,
having made the remark "If this is my
daughter Mary, she ought to have her proper
ty." The plaintiffs seducer, a man named
Emmerich, is now a wealthy resident of
| Missouri.

An Underground Fire.

From the San Francisco Call.
A fire has been burning for several days at
the Tule Confederacy, doing great damage to
the farmers in that section. Josiah Shearer,
wishing to clear some land Of tules, set fire to
them. The fire spread TO the meadows, and
now covers an area Of 100 acres, on which the
grass was completely destroyed The fire
will run for hundreds of feet under the sod,
burning unseen, in places ranging
from six inches to two feet in depth. when II
will suddenly break forth in large flames and
run considerable distance over the surface,
completely consuming the grass.

A Remarkable Disappearance.

From the Milwaukee Journal.
South Side gossips are busy discussing the
mysterious disappearance of I9.year-old
girl an hour previous to the hour appointed
for her marriage. The priest was summoned,
the guests invited and the wedding feast
spread, but when the hour arrived for the
wedding ceremony to begin, that most
necessary parsonage, the bride, was missing.
The lady is Mary Siberia, daughter Of John
Siberia, living on the corner OF Greenbush
one John Cichey. Several months ago Cichey
came to Milwaukee from the East, and took
up his residence on the South Side. Among
the people with whom he first became ac-
quinted were the Sherras. Cichey was young
and ardent, and Mary, the daughter, was
pretty and winsome. The young man fell in
