MASONIC MELANcE.
A Scraping Together Of Some Of
the Occurrences Thursday

As had been announced by posters and
notice in the World, people came from
far and near to witness or participate IN
the festivities of Thursday and Thursday
night of this week.
Early in the day the wind reached the
dignity of gale This did not prevent
the shooting and the base ball playing,
but it did make it exceedingly difficult.

Our reporter could find nobody with an
intelligent score. In general results it
was thus:
LIST match prize, $1,000; N. Fuller took
LIST money, $500; Ned Ferris, I'd, $500;
B. F. Morgan Sd, $3.50.

The wind, we owe it to the Wa-Keeney
boys to say, was particularly against
them, on account Of the Buffalo boys
having the stronger men at the bat. No
intelligent calculation could be made as
to where the ball would be sent. AS it
was, our boys made several on the fly.
AT NIGHT,
The Wallace orchestra gave concert in
Opera Hall, which was largely attended
and very generally enjoyed. The men,
bers of this orchestra are band of trained
musicians.
After the concert came the dance. The
orchestra also furnished music for this.
Supper eating began before midnight,
and continued until the large crowd was
fed. The repast was elegant.
The dancing continued until about
$50 P. M.
The proceeds of the dance and supper
belong to the Masons. They amounted
to $14S.OO.

BASE BALL GAME.
OF this, there is not much to say. A
scoring of the game is not obtainable,
Notwithstanding that professional man
in this place asserts to us that the captain
of the Buffalo nine expressed desire that
no publication of the game be made.
This captain is said to be ashamed of
letting the Wa-Keeney club, in the YER
dure of its newness, get 26 points to the
Buffalo club 76. Nine innings were
played.
The texture of the respective clubs is

the use of study of form, as it relates to the

Draining Ponds for Carp.
Overwhelmingly Defeated.

The carp culture in the highlands of
central France is a form of industry
which merits good deal more attention
and imitation than it has hitherto OBJ
tanned. On that high plateau there are
ponds Of all sizes, many of them large
enough to be dignitied by the more
grandilequent name of lakes, but to the
country people they are one and all
'etangs" aud nothing more. These
ponds are one of the chief sources of
wealth Of the country, which is mostly
but poor soil for cultivation, as great
part Of it has recently been reclaimed
from moorland. and heather. These,
ponds are stocked with carp, and once
every three years great fishing takes
place. All the able-bodied men of the
countryside are engaged for a certain
day in October to meet at one
of the ponds; that on the highest
level being. taken first The sluices
of the pond are opened three days
previously, and the water allowed to
run gradually of, leaving the bed of
deep mud which seems to be one of the
necessaries of carp existence. When
there is only thin rill of water left
trickling down the centre of the erst-
while pond, the fishing begins. On all
sides the carp lie Laundering, painting,
gasping on the expause of mud; In some
places the fish are two or three deep on

ordinary; they do not seem to suffer in
dividualiy from their great numbers, for
the fish are remarkably fine and heavy.
The men wade through the mud, catch
ing the carp by the gills, and tinging
them on the bank. There they are
weighed by men who have cone with
carts from the nearest town to buy the
fish, and after the weighing the carp are
packed among straw in the carts as tight
ly as possible. When the carts are full
they return to the town, and the carp
are then placed in tanks. A carp takes
good deal of killing, and, though be-
ing tightly packed in straw for whole
day and joltcd down hill for perhaps four
hours, may strike him as novel expert
ence, it does not do him the very least
harm; and as soon as he is released from
durance vile and placed in the tanks, he
resumes the even tenor of his way
