THE LUCAS LECTURE.

Arrangements for the Event About Com
pleted.
The arrangements are about completed
for the Lucas lecture, and from all appear
ances it will be grand success. All that
is necessary to make Il lecture success is
good subject, good speaker and a good
audience. The former two we have, and
the latter we hope TO have. The club
thought it best to put the tickets down to
twenty-five cents, 10 that the poor
est of us could attend, and in
order to give great number OF
our citizens an opportunity to contribute
something toward this meritoriOus cause.
All who have heard, or heard Of, Danville
b. Lucas, know that he will do justice to
his subject and honor to himself: j under
stand that he has made special prepare
tons for this occasion, and that IL will be
one of his msst brilliant efforts. Every
one who desires TO hear the sad story OF
that country OF long suffering told by one
of our most renowned orators, and who
wishes to help her fight her battle for
freedom against money, numbers and stiff
necked aristocracy, should attend this
lecture.

A Good Game.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR WHEELING.
A rattling good game took place on the
New Fair Grounds yesterday between the
Pittsburg Bells and the home team-a
game full of excitement from beginning to
end. and full OF pretty plays and good,
solid hitting. The small crowd on hand
thoroughly enjoyed the sport and took adj
vantage of the many opportunities afforded
to applaud fine hits and plays. The home
nine got in two runs in the first inning on
four consecutive hits by Nicholson, White,
Wright and Upright. They scored again
in the fourth, when Watson made run on
his own pretty single, clever steal to
second, and passed ball. In the
seventh inning they lit on
70 Smith pretty hard, and
with four runs on singles by Watson, Bero
and White, q beautiful double by Nichols,
and three errors by the visitors. This last
RIM WAS made in the last inningOn Whites
safe hit and O'Bright's splendid line Tor
two bases along the left foul line. Inc
ball got lost in the tall grass, and OBrlght
made for home, but he omitted to touch
third and was consequently called out.
The Bells made their first tally IN the
oDeniug inning. Smith was struck by the
hall and took first, stole second, went TO
third ON McShannOck out, and scored on
a passed ball. They added two more IN
the next inning on one hit ana
five errors. And again in the
sixth they piled up two more, on
n base ON balls, McShannock's hit and an
error by Nicholson Their final run was
made in the seventh, on base on balls,
stolen base and ]. Smiths safe drive for a
single. The local boys had their batting
clothes on and pounded Smith for ii
singles, including two doubles. OBrlSht,
Watson. Nichol, Bero and White took the
hating honors, while O'Bright's splendid
Ieft-feld play was very fine. The battery
work of the Wheeling club was excellent,
but one hit being made off BerO IN two
INNINGS. Watson caught the first two in
nings and showed up 10 advantage there,
as well as in the box and ut the
hat All he needs is little more steadl-
ness and he will be valuable man in any
onod team. The home nine should refrain
from talking to one another about bad plays
when on the field, rs it does not look well
and is calculated to induce bad playing
nnon the part of the field. Take this game
ali around and it will hold its own along
with any that has been played here for
wears. but it deserved much better patron
noe than il got. The home nine may keep
on and play the season out. but rs 1t has
done nothing but lose money some sort OF
Guarantee will have to be raised or this
fieIJ snort will have a sudden ending here.
Following is the score:

A vote is to be taken in L. A. W. on the
subject of racing, which has long been a
troublesome question, but from present IN
dieations the rules will remain the same LII
spite of H. E. Ducker's wishes to the con-
trary. So be it.
Wilbur L. Wright, Chief Consul OF West
Virginia. has decided to call a meeting OF
all L. A. w. members during the month
of August and endeayOr to form q State
Division. This will require the election OF
a Division Secretary Treasurer, and the
appointing of q Committee on Roads, e'c'

A well-known wheelman, in contrasting
the advantages to the owners Of English

greatest was the ease and facility with
which parts of the American wheels could

ers of foreign-built machines. In proof OF
this rider of an English machine VINO

WHEELING NO /.

A Prospect that the Lost Bit will be Re-
moved To-Day. .-!
President f. L. Rose, of the Wheeling
Oil Company, came down from Washing
ton at 1920 last night. He said there was
every prospect that the broken tool would
be removed from the No. well to-day,
and that drilling would be resumed to-
morrow. The job of milling the pin on
the lost bit was completed last evening,
the work being finished about 8 o'clock.
A cast of the broken stem was made by
lowering bailer full of tallOw and then
withdrawing it, an exact mould being the
result. 1t is to be hoped the tools will be
drawn to-day, and if the well is cleared il
will be drilled in tomorrow.

AGnnd Story.

Friday morning the hteliigencer printed
a neat story about Mrs. Vance, of the
South Side, finding 1857 in gold in an old
pin cushion which had been purchased at
the Schuchardt sale. The item stated
that the children had been
playing with the pincushion for some
time, and all that sort Of thing, and yet
the money had never yet been discovered
until the other day, whan the cushion fell
to the floor and burst. After the sawdust
had been dumped out the gold began to
slide out until $567 in shin
ers" lay before the astonished
eyes of the family Just think
Of two pounds of gold coin sticking around
in the corner of little pin-cushion, and no
one ever discovering it. 1t is wonderful,
and the story is quite singular. The only
error in the tale is that there were 567
NEEDLES in the sawdust ''stufing" Of the
cushion instead of dollars. But then that
is O small matter

The Prospects for Its Success Growing
Brighter.
There was quite large gathering Of old
soldiers at the hall of Holiday Post, last
evening, to further discuss the coming re-
union There was very satisfactory re-
port brought in from the Finance commit
tee, it being understood that quite large
additional sum had beeh collected during
the day, and it was agreed that the out
look was much brighter than during the
past week. The citizens seem to be waking
up to the fact that it is not small affair
that is under way, but grand reunion OF
veterans from three States, and that ten
thousand men may take part in the great
parade, rs was the case at Steubenyille,
and with proper grasp of the idea comes
a disposition to aid the cause in financial
way.
1t is suggested that subcommittee de-
sirous of communicating with Chairman
G. w. Bags, can reach him care OfSheib's
musie store.
