HARRISBURG LAID OUT.
THE QUIcKsTEPs WIN AN
OTHER GOOD GAME.
PLENTY OF SOLID BATTING
The Harrisburg KIckers Defeated by a
Score of Us to 6-Yesterday's Base Ball
Contests Notes.

Nothing could give more satisfaction to
the 600 spectators yesterday than to see the
fine style in which the Quickstep laid the
Harrisburg club out. The home team had
on their batting clothes again and they ham
mered both pitchers most numerically. At
the outset Leary was put in the pitchers box
On the second ball pitched Kienzel lifted it
for three bags. Benners not to be outdone
drove another for the same number of bags,
Leary looked mad and this increased when
Hoover and Albert got In singles and Fox
one for three bases. Manager Meyers now
interfered and Burns was placed in the box
with the distinct understanding that he was
to remain there. The side retired in short
order.
The Harrisburg then took their
turn and were put out before
ten balls had been pitched and in row. In
the second inning neither side scored. The
Harrisburg got their first run on the third
inning through the aid of an error of
Kienzel and hit of Shetzline. The home
club were unable to hit Burns for the second
and third inning, but lit on to him in the
fourth and kept 1t up until the sixth inning,
scoring nine ruhs off him. Here Meyers in
terferel again and wanted Burns TO leave
the box; this he absolutely refused todo and
In consequence he was expelled on the
ground and the Harrisburg continued the
game with eight men; as luck would have it,
but one ball was knocked out into right
field. Leary was Drought in again and the
home club did not score on him until the
ninth innings when two runs and three hits
wero made. Everyone did good hitting, Little
Albert leading with five hits and eight bases.
Kienzel and Benners each had brace of
triples. Fox, Albert and Snyder also got In
triples. The Harrisburg were unable to Sc
cure but six hits and ten bases off the boy
pitcher of the Quickstep; of these Shetz-
line got two, Casey a three Dagger and
Leary and McCloskey doubles. The visitors
outfielded the home team, and the playing
of Cline at second base was magnificent and
brilliant. Reccius al left at left caught two
good flies and made splendid throw to sec
.ond. Hoover at second made some good
stops and seems at home In his position.
Fox played good third, and as it is an old
story about Snyder, it is hardly necessary to
say he played first good, for everybody
knows it. Gus Albert covered short splen
didly. The battery as usual worked ad-
mirably, neither wild pitch or a passed
ball being credited against either of them.
That they are valuable acquisition to the
club every one is convinced. They field and
bat first-class and as yet the heaviest batters
in the Interstate have been unable to hit
them. The score follows:

STABBED IN THE JAW.
What befell Joshua DOugherty Last Even


What befell Joshua DOugherty Last Even
ing.
One of the many champions of ladies, met
with what might have been very serious
accident last evening. The parties to the
affair were Joshua Dougherty, Scotchman,
and William Bagley, character known to
the police.
From the facts that can be ascertained of
the affair it appears that about 10. Is O'Clock
Baeley met Dougherty in front OF the latter's
boarding house, No. All West Second street,
and calling him aside insulted two
young lady a. a.quaintances OF Dougherty's.
Mr. Dougherty very properly resented the
insult, upon which Bagley drew knife and
attempted to cut the ladies' champion. He
did not succeed in doing SO, as Dougherty
was too much for him. They then sepa-
rated, but about an hour afterward, as
Deugherty was about TO enter his boarding
house, he was met by Bagley and before he
was aware OF his adversary's intention he
wa0stabbed in the right jaw bone The
knife blade was broken off and remained in
the jaw. Dougherty informed Officer An
drew Moore of the occurrence, who took the
injured man in charge and escorted him to
DIR. Carrow, Sixth and French streets, who
removed the broken blade and dressed the
wound. The injured man is doing all
right.

A DEADLY DUEL.
Fierce Fight of Two Lovers Both Nor
tally Wounded.

tally Wounded.
VANDALIA, August 2S.-The duel be
tween Jacob Rosenbrook and Lewis
Phillips at Meashogues Mill, 40 miles from
Vandalia, was fought last night without
challenge and almost without provocation.
The passion of the duelists had been in
famed to the highest pitch by long stand
ing rivalry for the hand of young girl who
is believed to be cousin of Rosenbrook.
Phillips, In addition to this, resented what
he regarded as an insult from his rival, and
for several days each of the two men
threatened to kill the other on sight.
The young girl, to whom both men were
strongly attached, fruitlessly tried every
means to restore peace between the suitors.
Last night they were accompanied by friends
| and met near Meashogues Mill, in Bowling
Green Township. Four shots were fired
in such rapid succession that it was impos-
sible to tell who fired first. Rosenbrok fell,
mortally wounded, but his self-cocking re-
volyer, ~ calibre weapon, was afterward
used with fatal effect upon his rival. AS he
lay bleeding TO death from mortal wound
he fired fifth shot and Phillips fell.
THE SECONDS STORY.
Rosenbrook's second in the dreadful
tragedy was Mark Swank, while Phillips
brought to the field John Wren. The sec
| onds had no services to perform until the
duel was over, and the fatal events on the
held happened with bew:ldering rapidity.
Both agreed that there was no time for pre-
liminaries before the first shots were fred.
The two men drew their weapons and began
firing at distance OF about 10 PAGES, and
the seconds were obliged to look to
their own safety. Phillips second shot
struck Rosenbrook in the mouth and
Travelled upward, penetrating the brain. AS
he fell his weapon exploded, the bullet
striking his antagonist in the left side, Just
below the fifth rib, ranging upward, and he
fell within five feet OF Mr.. Rosenbrook.
Both duelists were young men, Phillips
being about % years OF age, and school
teacher. Neither of the seconds have yet
been arrested.
THE LADY IN THE CASE.
The innocent cause of the tragedy lie crazed
with grief over the tragic affair. All the
parties to the affray are highly respected in
the community, and while their rivalry was
much commented upon, no one anticipated
SO bloody an ending to it. The trouble was
that the young lady seemed to be unable to
decide as to which she preferred, receiving
the attentions of both young men with i'm
partiality. The Coroner has been summoned
from st. Louis to bold an inquest over the
remains of Rosenbrook. 1t is thought that
Phillips cannot survive the night, as he has
inward hemorrhage.
BowlingGreen, where the fatal duel was
fought; is almost in the same county in
which East st. Louis and its Blood Island,
the most noted dueling ground in the coun-
try, is situated. 1t was here that the fatal
duels of Colonel Benton and District-AttOr-
ney Alexander were fought.
