Atlanta VS.. Augusta.

ESPECIAL TO THE 1PPEAL.1
ATLANTA, Jnly 9.-Atlanta defeated
Augusta the third straight game to-day
by score of 8 to 3. Over 1000 persons
witnessed Il game, which was without
particular interest, and was marked in
every point oy the superiority of Allan
ta's playing, The Augusta men admit
that they were outplayed in every game,
but are loud in denunciation of Umpire
Dunlvey, wnom they charge with per-
sistently umpiring against them. The
general impression here is that he has
been uniustly abused, and all seem to
think that while many of his de-
cisions have been close, more have
been against Atlanta than for her.
The Consultation took occasion Tuesday
to say that one of the decisions was
wrong and 0'Brien, the Augusta ningo,
came out in card accusing Mr. Grady of
intimidation. Our people are indignant
at their foolish proceedings and think it
IS wholly unwarrantable Our club was

A SENSATIONAL SCENE.

A sensational scene occurred tonight
in the arcade of the Kimball House.
Mr.. Sanford Cohen, of the Augusta
Chronicle, came to the city three DAYS
ago to report the games between Au-
gusta. and atlanta. In his reports he
has vigorously denounced Dunlevy's um-
piring, and has accused him of rotten
ness in all his decisions. Cohen was
talking to crowd of his friends at about
8 o'clock tonight, and in the arcade
were assembled over 100 persons. Dun
levy, with copy of o-day' S Chronicle in
his hand, went to Cohen and pointed
did you write that?" II did" Cohen
responded. Well, it's a id lie," said
Dunlevy, as he plunged his fist at Cohen s
face. Cohen caught his arm, and struck
back. The crowd gathered around them
aud parted ttfem, neither having been in
jured. Dunlevy claims that he has been
unjustly prosecuted, and says, as a man,
he defended his honor. Considerable
excitement was created by the incident.

ed his strength by not Fastening too fast,
now jumped down the bank LOOKING more
collected.
Ills coming gave Mana fresh hope. as
he brought in his face look of power
which was encouraging. The two men
consulted shortly as to how they should
proceed, but their efforts seemed abont
TO be rendered useless by another strug-

were terminated by the rightwheel catch
Ing on the trunk of growing tree, thus
stopping and taking its weight considera-

had also broken, while some others were
soon loosened or cut, and while one man
held the bride firmly, the other succeed
ed at last in disengaging the horse
which at once leaped excitedly up, and
would have started away but for the
tight grip that was on him.
''Leave the phaeton alone and quiet the
pony Mana called out, full of a tremu-
lous Joy. 1t was not difficult to do, and
IN few minutes he was led painting up
the bank on to the pathway, apparently
not much the worse.
Several women had by this time follow
ed the men down, and Elsie and Joe had
also come back. Mana went up and
held the pony, while the men and wom-
en- both went and righted up the phaeton
and wheeled it along the bank till they
could etitup on the road at a turn lit
tie way back. Strangely enough, there
was hardly scratch visible upon its sur
face, nor splinter broken off any corner.
Mana was trembling violently, and
could with difficulty stand by the pony,
but though her voice shook and her head
reeled she spoke alternately words of
gratitude to her friends and Of caressing
fondneSS to the terrified Dobbin.
Then the men came back, and the
younger gave the elder charge of the
pony and orders to take it up to the sta

To the Editor of the EAGLE.
That the journalism of Kansas is
making rapid strides toward the front
ranks of the craft in America is un-
deniable, and that the EAGLE occupies
foremost position among the papers
of the state is also fact beyond all
disputation.
Brimful of clear ringing articles,
loyal TO Kansas, especially SO to Sedg-
wick and border counties, and a sin
cerc friend of Wichita, it is no won
der that the EAGLE is meeting the
marked and growing support it re-
ceives.
II is emphatically a newspaper. Ev-
cry day brings news TO its admiring
readers. Wichita can hardly realizes

any good come from the Irish discus

only, as far as can see, to find IA tai
ented accurate lady an opportunity Of
firing a misguide,. fanatic, a little re-

done, beyond that, very little else.
That superstition and ignorance have
