Of ihs chicagOs Gives St. Louis
ths Dssisive Game
In the Series for the Champion
ship of the World.
The eFpwHs Min in the Fourth
Inning by 1910 4.
The Game Called <On Account Of
Darkness.


CNGxyAn, O., Octob tr 24-Ths game
to-day between the st. Louis Browns and
the chicsso champions Of the League was
the decisive one in-the series between these
clubs for the championship of the world,
and Iesnltsd in an easy victory for the St.
Lonis team. Il was Clarkson's day to
pitch bbs sss appsArsd on the grOuuds five
minutes late and Capt. Anson ordered Nc
Cormick, who pitched yesterday, in to the
box. But two hits we're made off
Mccormick yesterday. To-day he
was hit for q total of sixteen
bases and this with the miserable fielding
of the Chicsgos decided the game. The
Chicagos took lead of two runs in the
first inning on hits by Sunday and errors
of Barkley. In, the third inning Welsh
made three bagger and crossed the plate
through Dalrymple's poor fielding. Barklsy
and Comiskey made hits and Barklsy
scored, while Coniskey was forced out BY
Robinson. Robinson stole two and came
home on passed ball The St. Louis
club won in the eighth inning by
hitting Mccormick safely Eve times.
MISERABLE FIELDING.
The Gelding of the Chicsgos in this
inning was the worst seen here for some
time. Anson made two bad muffs, Will
iamson wild throw and Dslrymple wild
throw and Flint had two passed balls. The
result was elk runs for st. Louis only two
of which were earned. In the fifth inning
the Chicagos made two rdus, but they
had one chance to ooyercome the lead of their
opponents and the game thereafter was de-
void of interest. The last half Of the
eighth inning was not played, on account
Of darkness, but it is counted in the score,
rs the St Louis club had the game without
playing their half. The game being played
under League rules, the score is made &C.
cording to League rules. Attendance,

Imuorfaut Land Decision.

Among the important cases deter
mined in our circuit court this week
are those of j. A. Hudson curator
of Sallie Henderson, minor. against
Henry Detienne and Mr.. Burgdorf of
the eastern part of the county, in
volving the title to a farm in the same
neighhorhood, containing 100 acres
of valuable land. 1t seems that the
land belonged originally to l.. L.
| Henderson, who died in the spring of
1867, leaving this farm as a home
| stead. Deceased left a wife and one
child by the surviving wife, and four
children by a former wife. The last
wife finally died, leaving one child OF
her own, so that there were five
children in al. 1t was claimed thai
the five children Inherited the LAND
equally. Detienne bought what he
supposed to be two-ffths interest il
the land from two of the children o.
the first wife and Burgdorf secured
similar claim through the same chan
mel from the other two children OF thu
first wife. Hudson claimed that
under the law of 1867, the last wifi
inherited the land absolute, subjec
only to a homestead interest of tn
children of the former wife until the.
become of age, and that as they ar
now all of age, his ward, Sallie Hen

Last Sunday the colored Baptist
minister of this city baptized 81 col
ored people in Pollock's pond, %
men and 20 women. He cut a large
hole in the ice and it made the look

taking as they went through the hole.
They were liable to get pneumonia,
and if some of them who have
s'jined" the church several times be-
fore are not more in earnest this time
their manner of salvation would be
the mean of their loss. We are glad
to see such a revival among the col

thinking of something besides where
they would get their next spring
