Early on the morning of tho 18th, the
picked nine of the "CalicO Wrappers ne
companied by few lovers OF the national
game started for Middle Fork to encOun-
ter the Scotch Roughs in friendly game.
Union Church was reached ut = o'clock
p. NJ, and after partaking of an excellent
dinner provided by the hOspitable Dr.
Mclean, we proceeded towards the "tar
west" under the guidance of the hand
some and agreeable Mr.. Sam Shaw. On
arriving at Dr. McCormick's we received
cordial welcome from the Scotch
Roughs. and in a short time all of our lit
tie band were provided with escorts and
prepared to separate for the night. The
writer is under especial obligations to MIR.
Shaw for the princely style with which
lie was entertained. Friday morning at
eleven o'clock the opposing mines were on
the ground ready for action, and after ar
ranging all pTeiminarirs the game was
commenced. The excitement was intense,
as the Scotch Roughs enjoyed high rep
I utation and a lively contest was antici-
patrd The swift pitching of Srhnorren-
berg aud the brilliant playing of the first
/ bascman Connolly, was effective in pre-
/ venting the Scotch ROughs from scoring
/ runs, while the excellent batting of the
/ ''calico wrappers gave them decided
/ clarcd the victors after the seventh in
ming hy score of 81 to |. The decisions
of the umpire. Mr.. Milton Hoskins, were
very impartial, and gave entire satistac-
ton to all The BrOokhaven boys were
encouraged to exert themselves by the
presence Of some of the l5rOOshavcn girls,
who were generous in their applause
when a skilltul play was made. The
Scotch Roughs bore their defeat nobly.
4 sumptuOus repast was prepared to which
we did ample justice. Immediately after
dinner emusic arose with its vOluptnnus
SWELL and each of the calico wrappers
secured fair partner determined to
dance one set before taking their de
parture. When the dance was finished
the captain of the Scotch Roughs stepped
forward and in elegant language present
ed our club with a beautiful bail and bat
as mark of esteem. Though taken by
surprise our captain made an appropriate
reply which reflected honor upon the club
he represented. Everything being in
readiness, We gave three cheers for the
Scotch RoughS. the same for tie charm

The Wess0n Times has the follow
ing in reply to some of the reckless
and unfounded assertions of a few
whiskyites that Prohibition is a
failure in Copiah:
The few suits in court and the
empty calabooses, since the saloons
closed, bear evidence to the contra,
ry. Going to day (July 20th,) to
the caIahoose door in Bnauregard, it
was found that spider webs covered
the lock and staples to the door. and
the marshal observed saying. There
is a good argument for prohibition.
L have not had any use for this
since February, which was about
the time the last saloon closed in
Beaurrgard."

Paradise Lost

In the summer of 1880, during
the construction of the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad through Iowa
county, the construction company
dug n ditch in the highway, in the
town of Eden, in this county, aud
on the night of the 9d Of August,
of that year. two young sons of
Henry +. Parish, Of the town of
Highland, aged II and years,
were passing along the road in the
night with a team and wagon load
ed with zinc ore and the team ran
into the ditch, upset the wagon and
its contents upon the boys and they
were both killed. The father of the
boys, by Messrs. Lanyon u Spensley,
his attorneys, brought an action
against the town Of Eden for dam
ages for killing the younger boy,
claiming $4,000, The town of
Eden 10y its attorney, Aldro jerks,
filed an answer TO the complaint
alleging contributory negligence,
and the case was tried in the circuit
court for Iowa county, at the Ooto-
Der term, 1888, and the jury return
ed verdict against the town of
Eden for 1900, from which the
town appealed to the supreme court.
The decision Of the supreme court
was rendered this week by Justice
Lyon, which aairms tho judgment
of the circuit court which was en-
tered on the verdict of the jury, and
now the town will have no alterna-
tive but to pay the Judgment with
the accumulated costs; uules, per-
haps motion fora rehearing be
filed and granted. DodgeDWe Star.
