Pioneer Press, St. Paul, correspondence,
Eau Claire, Wis. Friday: The water in
the Chippewa has gradually improved in
volume the past two days, by reason of q
surplus from the flooding dams, which
are now tolerably well filed. The splash
expected to arrive early the coming week,
will cause an artificial rise of between
FIVE and six feet. Many of the RATS that
were aground between here and the
Mississippi were moved, but there remains
many that are yet high on the gravel
bars. Twenty two strlng RATS were
slqiced through. the dells dam, and the
reservoir is covered with lumber. each raft
waiting its turn to get through.

YESTERDAYS GAME.
1t is Won by the Stars by Score Of
2 to 8.

The weather yesterday was not the best
for ball playing, but nevertheless a fair
crowd was present to witness the first
game between the Stars and the Kimbarks
of Chicago. Both clubs presented nice
appearance. being attired in neat and at
traetive suits. The Kimbarks wore suit
of dark gray flannel. trimmed in dark
blue, with the name of the club and an
anvil worked in red on the shirt bosom.
The Stars looked their prettiest in their
suits of white flannel trousers and neglige
shirt, with red caps and stockings.
The game commenced promptly at 2:30
p. m. with Clyde Wade, of Orion, acting
as umpire. The Stars won the toss and
sent the Kimbarks to the bat, who were
retired in one, two three order. In the
second inning they secured one run. and
two in the third The next six innings
were whitewashes, which shows that the
Stars played powerful game. The first
two innings for the Stars resulted in
blanks each time. In the third one run
was scored, which was followed by three
whitewashes. By hard playing they man.
aged to get in four runs in the seventh
inning and two in the eighth. Being 10
the lead the Stars did not go to the bat on
the last inning.
Following is the score by innings;
1874 9s9
Kimbarks ....0 2 GO o o 0 o.
Stars ..................0 o / % 3 80
The friends of the Stars are very ex
ultant over the manner in which they
acquitted themselves in the diamond field
yesterday. From beginning to end q
rafting good game was played, and hui
few errors occurred. The Kimbarks also
made many friends by their fine appear
ance and excellent playing, and the gen
eral prediction is that they will make il
pretty warm for the Stare today.
The game yesterday afternoon in thi:
city, was particularly noticeable in one
point, and that was in the rapidity witt
which it was played. As soon as one side
was put out, the men would quickly take
their positions in the field, and thus the
delay that usually occurs between innings
was done away with.

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1883-10-20

A Columbus correspondent in Civ
ing the reasons for Republican defeat
in Ohio last Tuesday says: cit comes
on good authority from the Demo-
cratic Committee-rOoms, that few
days before the election orders were
sent out to the party workers of the
State to instruct Democrats every
where to vote for the second amend
ment every time they could secure a
vote for Hoadly. There are instan-
ces where Democrats approached Sec
ond amendment Republicans and
proposed to exchange votes in this
way, and it worked very WE'LL"
The same correspondent after citing
instances of this trading, adds that
'the trick took and the Prohibition
lists sold out the Republicans who
gave them the opportunity to vote on
the prohibition question, and the
Democrats sold out the saloonkeep-
ers, whisky dealers and brewers, who
had furnished the funds for the CAM
paign and had joined the Democratic
ranks last year, believing that the
Democratic expressions of sympathy
with their business was genuine. But
they now see how false and deceptive
it all was"
In spite of this trading the second
amendment will fail short of adop-
ton by over 10000 votes. By this
result the Republicans who voted for
the amendment have failed to ac-
eomplish what they desired to do and
at the same time contributed to the
defeat of Foraker.
