A Hopeful Farce.
From the Kansas City Times.

From the Kansas Guy Tunes.
The Cincinnati Enquirer remarks that the
civil service examiners are all Republican
Office holders. The same may be said OF the
examiners here. No Democrat stands, a
ghost of chance of getting an office under
these manipulators. Thus far civll-serWce
reform is a farce, but it is farce in the direc-
ton of what will ultimately prevail.

Baseball

A match game of baseball was played on
the Associations grounds here on Thursday
afternoon last between the First Nine of the
Association and the Littlestown, Pa, nine.
The Littlestown nine were no match for the
Westminster nine, either in pitching, catching,
batting or fielding, and did not put them to
their best In fact the Westminster nine
changed their battery after the sixth inning.
The score stood-Westminster %; Littles-
town Q.
Yesterday the First Nine were engaged in
n match game with the Patapsco nine when
we went to press. 1t is said the Patapsco is
greatly strengthened since their game here
with the Second Nine several weeks ago, IN
which they were defeated. If it is not, they
will not fare any better than the Littlestown
nine.
On Saturday the First Nine will play
match game here with a club from Mechan-
icstown, Frederick county. This will make
the third game for the First Nine this week.
On Wednesday next the Littlestown nine
90 to Chambersburg to play the crack nine OF
that place. They are to have new pitcher,
we understand, on the occasion.
On Thursday next the Chambersburg mne
come to Westminster to play return game
with the First Nine of this place. Great in
terest is felt in this game, and no doubt avery
large crowd will be in attendance to witness
it. Chambersburg may again be successful,
but the First Nine will make it little more
interesting than when they first met last week.

A Carroll COuntian Injured at the Tun.
mel, BaltimOre-He Claims TO Have
Been Robbed

The Baltimore Herald of Tuesday saws:
Benjamin Dahoffer, aged "A years. resi-
dent OF Union Bridge, Carroll county, Md.
was brought to the City Hospital about 10. SO
o'clock last night, suffering from painful in
luries received about 6. 40 o clock, D. M, by
beng struck by an engine while in the tunnel
OF the Union Railroad Company, near Charles
street station. Shortly before the arrival of
the engine Dahoffer was seen sitting on pile
OF cross-ties about fifteen feet inside the tun-
mel, and, it is supposed, while wandering
about the tunnel he was struck by the passing
engine. An examination developed severe
fracture of the left leg near the thigh and
several scalp wounds. DIR. Page Mcintosh
set the fractured limb. 1t is feared his in
juries will prove fatal as it is thought he is
also internally hurt.
The Baltimore San of Wednesday had the
following.
Benjamin Dahoffer, who was injured by a
train near Union tunnel Monday night, is still
at the City Hospital. His condition is serious.
Dahofer said he was from Union Bridge. He
is "A years old and unmarried. He claims
that he was assaulted and robbed, after which
he was knocked on the railroad track in front
OF an approaching train. His story is that he
was going in the direction of Hillen Station
to take a train for his home. He was walking
between the tracks running from Charles
street Station when he was accosted by a
stranger, who warned him to step aside out of
the way of train which was coming from the
station. He did what the stranger told him
and started to walk briskly, with his new ac-
quaintance in his rear He does not remem-
Der what occurred after this, but thinks he
was struck on the head by the stranger and
thrown across the track. His silver watch
and chain are missing. On his head are four
scalp wounds, as if inflicted by some blunt
instrument. The gashes are similar to those
on the head of Bernard Doyle, who was found
beside track on the Philadelphia, Whining
ton and Baltimore Railroad several days ago.
Doyle had no other marks on his body, but
jury decided he was struck by an engine. A
number of the railroad employees who brought
Dahoffer to the hospital Monday night claimed
that they saw him sitting on a pile of cross
ties close to the rail near the entrance to the
tunnel. They say that he was so close to the
track that the side Of the cowcatcher on the
engine caught him near the hip and threw
him on the track, dragging him a short dis
lance. Dahoffer would have had no occasion
to go near Union tunnel in going from Charles
street to Hillen Station, unless he had mis-
taken his route.

TaneytOWn Items.

We were visited by small cyclone on last
Thursday afternoon, coming directly north
west, blowing down trees and fences in its
course. 1t blew the shed from Mr. L. H.
Eckenrode's lime kiln across the railroad
track, twisted Milton Crouse's stable almost
into octagon, shape, turned Mr.. Geo. Shoe
makers huckster wagon over on its side, and
a small building of Mr.. H. Shoemaker was
carried into the alley. The greatest freak of
all was that it broke off a dwarf pear tree for
Mr.. Amos Duttera at the ground amongst
others, and injured no other.
Mr. James Gait a farmer, and known to
many as Il school teacher in the county, was
kicked by a vicious horse on Tuesday in the
abdomen. 1t appears the horse is of vicious
nature and Mr.. Gait had given it a whipping
on Monday, and on Tuesday when he was in
the stable it misbehaved, and Mr.. Gait gave
it another whipping. When he went to pass
by in the rear of the animal it kicked him with
the above results. DR.. c. Birnie, being dis
patched for, gave all the aid possible, but
gives no definite answer as to the result of the
injuries at this writing.
Harvest is about over, that is wheat cutting,
with the exception of few farmers who have
a few acres to reap yet. Some are almost
done hauling in their wheat. Grain dealers
expect to receive new wheat this week for
shipment.
Our citizens, those living on Railroad street,
were treated to (you may call it what you
please such as is made by a half dozen
drunken men on Sunday morning at about 2
O'Clock, hunting for some one who, perhaps,
if found, would have made all retreat. More
is the shame, as men of family were running
around at that time of night. Where was our
officer, our guardian of the peace? The ans
wer non est must be the verdict.
The remains of Mr.. Joseph Fogle were in
tered in the Lutheran cemetery on Tuesday,
it being one among the largest funerals com,
ing to this place in years. He was good
citizen, kind father and neighbor, and re-
spected by all; aged II years.
Mr.. Benton Brining, and also Mr.. Louis and
Frank H. Elliott have added new horses to
their stables.
