Base BaH.-The Cumberland Nescs
of Tuesday states among its copious
Reunion notes that
At the last moment the Meyersdale base
ball club, who were to have played the Frost
burg tomorrow afternoon, notified the
amusement committee that they could not
play. The committee at once opened negoti-
atoms with the Homecoming club and sue
ceeded in getting them to play.
In this connection there is story
afoat that the Meyersdales, after dis
covering that it was not our leading
club they defeated two weeks ago,
were content to have the report
"Meyersdale defeated Frostburg by
score of 10 to 0"-stand as fnality.
Hence, the reason why they could not
"get their battery to come" as the
Queen City Courier learned. We trust
there is some other way of accounting
for their "funk" at "the last moment
We believe it was St. Paul, or some
other wise man who said the proper
time for Dragging was when a base
bal. club, for instance, was taking off
their armor rather than when they put
it on. Nevertheless, we would be glad
to have the Meyersdales, eve with
their alleged imported professional
pitcher and catcher, attempt whip
saw of our regular club.
The game between the Frostburg and
Homecoming clubs was accordingly
played at Cumberland Wednesday, tho
latter winning, as follows:
SCORE BY INNINGS.
E Ess:;ss,s, 5|s|s : 8 : $|GS33ss
Thus the Meyersdale funk undoubt-
eddy lost Frostburg a victory.

DR.. Jones Badly Hurt.-The 1886
passenger train on the Cumberla nd
and Pennsylvania railroad steamed
out of Cumberland Wednesday after
noon well laden with passengers re-
turning from the Reunion. Among
them was DR.. J. J. Jones, of this place.
Standing on car platform near
Hay street station talking with several
gentlemen about the number on the
train, its length, ETC., DIR. Jones reach
out to count the cars and while doing
so his head struck telegraph pole.
The stroke stunned him. He swung
round and fell between the cars and
on one side Of the track. The wheels
passed transversely over one foot,
MASKING off the sole and heel. Be-
sides this he sustained several severe
Commissions about the head and face,
one above an eye being particularly
ugly. He was brought home to Frost
burg at once, whore he promptly re-
ceived the best surgical attention,
himself directing how he wished the
delicate work performed with the view
of saving the foot if possible. The at
tending surgeons, however, concur
unanimously in the opinion that early
amputation above the ankle is neces-
sary.. The doctor has resided here
seven or eight years, during which
time he has acquired large and lu-
crativs practice. He is an excellent,
enterprising citizen and highly ss-
tsemed. The misfortune which has
overtaken him is deeply deplored by
all, the general regret being mitigated
only by the ardent hope that he may
survive.
Later.-The foot was taken off yester-
day morning about half way between
the ankle and knee. At noon yester-
day he was doing we'll and the attend.
ing surgeons talk cheerfully of the
doctors convalescence in due time.

the family of Charles Thomas, near
Salisbury, Pa, last week. On Sat
urday these gentlemen were much
alarmed by kilograms stating their
wives were very sick and summoning
them to come at once. Sunday morn
ing they arrived at Mr.. Thomas, and
found that the ladies and five members
of Mr.. Thomas family had been
poisoned by eating very small guam

Salisbury, in whose hands it had
undergone some preparation in which
a copper kettle was used. All are
well now, but feeling something the

IN AtcJtL CONFEDERATION

Wv
The convent OF Notre Dame at Bell
vile. Illinois, was burned on Saturday
night, involving q loss OF ov,r 500, 900.
A dispatch TO the Associated Press from
Beileville, January 6, gives the following
particulars
The fire at the convent of Notre Dame
last night was the most destructive to
life and property that Beileville has ever
,Ip,rieDced. A visit TO ths scene this
morning found the fire department still
on duty e~ndvavoring to quench the
flames, so as to preserve in r, cognizable
shape the bodies OF the victims. When
the ruins were sufficiently cooled volun-
teers went to work to bring out the bod
les. 1t was a terrible sight. At times
the searchcn would find two OF three
charred masses huldlsd close to sether
seemingly :, eking prot. ction in one au-
othcr form the advancing and terrible
rear part Of the building burned into nm
unacceptable mass. but the majority
were found beneath where the dormitory
was situated. They seemed to have
sought shelter there too late to recognize
that their escape vas impossible. The
flames beneath, eating away the sup
ports, let down the foor into the SETTLING
vortex Of fire and exc. The loss OF
life is much ct, alter thin was supposed
last night Instead of ling two. ms Mt
first supposed, the total numb,r Of
known deaths is %, tw, nty-tNo OF whom
are pupils and fvc Sisters. Amcpg tire
latter is the Sister Superior. A few ~
the bodies were identified by the c!oL'
ing, or rather a portion Of it, which,
having been saturatd with water. had
escaped tho flames. All that now re-
mains OF the famous convent of the I'm
mnculate Conception are the charrcd
and broken walls. and in the debris
there yet remain the bodies of several
victims.

Crime in 1883.

During the past year crime has been
on the increase. On an average
there have been-four murders and two
Suicides each day. On the other hand.
says the Virginia Enterprise, executions
have averaged only two in q week, and
iynchings about the same numb,r. In
1882 there were OIL an average two muir
der aud one suicide a day, and two
hangings and ,ons lynching n week.
Since January /, 1883. l05 persons have
eHpiated their crimes by death at the
hands OF the law. Judge Lynch has
BEEN very busy during the past year in
the South and West. Through the in
strnm ntality Of vigilance committees
and mobs, summary justice was meted
out to ninety-two culprits, against fifty
seven in 1882. Eleven OF them were
shot, eighty were hanged and n "a
