PARERRsBVRo, w. Va, August l2.-Th'
Democratic County Convention took place
at the court house this afternoon and wa
q very tame affair when compared will
the usual circus which slgnaliSes tue com
iug together OF the unteHilied in COnyeu
tion. All the work OF the convention ws'
cut and dried, and what was Calledb by court
esy nominating convention was noGhlEi
more than q ratiiying meeting to endorst
the selection OF Oamden's helChmen iol
the various positions assigned them. Al
the candidates, all the delegates and al
the members OF the various committees
were brought into the convention on list
made out by caucus last night.
There was no friction excepting when
one old wheel-horse, who was not posted
but knew matters were not going right
made kick, but he was soon pucked and
gagged, The proceedings OF the conven'
tion proved two things very ConClusiyely,
one was that Senator Camden hasthe Wood
county Democracy by the throat and can
manipulate 1t at his own sweet will.
Another point proven was that the Gam
den and jackson factions have buried the
hatChet, ut least 10 all outward appear
anCe. The Senator got his list oil dele
gates appointed to represent hlm ut the
Senatorial Convention, and the COnven'
ton instructed for Judge j. NJ. Jackson
and appointed his delegates to the Con-
gressional Convention,
In order to irOnclad the instructions a
resolution was passed which provided that
no proxies should be recognized by the
Wood county delegations in the two con-
Ventions.
at the close Of the proceedings Judge
Jackson was called for and addressed the
convention in the usual strain employed
on such occasions The convention nom
mated for the House Of Delegates W, N.
Chancellor, Of Parkersburg; A. A. Kellar,
Of Williams district, anu Thomas H..
Butcher, OF Slate district. The first named
ls the present Mayor oi Parkersburg and
represents the Doodle element Of the De-
moCrRCy. Mr.. Kellar Is at present County
Commissioner, and ia regarded az the
strongest man in the party. lie has been
training for the sherilialty for several
years. Mr.. Butcher is young Democrat
with Republican father Of influence, and
they bank on Republican support for him.
Lsvi Stephens was nominated for Coun-
ty Commissioner.
Hon. D. Il. Leonard presided at The con-
vention Gtthe earnest pereonal solicitation
Of Senator Camden. lie explained in his
opening address that he was not dis
gruntled that he was Democrat from
principle, not for office and that he would
always bs faithful and work for the ticket.
Ills address lacked the heartiness with
which he was wont to speak and eickly
mechanical emile beamed Oh his Counle-
nance as he took his medicine. There
was indignation over his treatment and 1t
has been augmented since he has been
paraded as picture Of contentment by

Eemarkabte Contest at Louisville.

LoUIsyILLR, KY, Augustl2.-The Louis.
vile base ball club again defeated the
Brooklyus to-day in a most remarkable
contest. The batting on both sides was
hard, but the slugging OF the Louisvllles
breaks tho record for the number OF in.
nings played, They made twenty.lour
base hits with q total OF forty bases
throughout The Bsooklyns gave up the
game at the end Of the seventh inning.
The best record for nine innings is
q total Of torty.one bases made by
both the AthletiCs and the Louisyiiles
last year. Toole was knocked out OF the
box 10 four innings. Harkins then came
into pitch, but Jared even worse than his
predecessor. Warrick made q home run
when the bases were crowded, and Swart-
wood knocked the ball over the right feld
fence for home run. j. Kerrins made
two three base hits, u double and single.
The Brooklyns had three catchers in The
game, Clark, Peoples and Shriyer,
Peoples was Injured in the third
inning and retired. The Brooklyns
played an execrable fielding game. swart.
wood had the sulks in right field and
played like baby. HeCkOr eased on his
delivery after the third inning, but the
hard batting OF the visitors was OF no
avail. The weather was exceedingly hot,
and White was almost overcome With heat
in the fourth inning Attendance, $500.
