RECORDS TO THEIR CREDIT.

A Little History of If, With Pictures of
Two of Its Conspicuous Record-Hnkers
One Man With Sixty Five Prizes !;
Another With Even More.
The Scottish-American Athletic Club is
recognized as being the strongest athletic
club in the State, and it has done more to
further the interest of athletic sports than
all the other clubs in the State combined.
The club was organized in 1878, with forty
members. The club held sway until July
4, 1882, when it disbanded, owing to the
unsatisfactory report of the finance COM
mittee. Between the years of organization
and disarmament the following games were
run off (: First games at their own grounds,
May 80, 1879; second games on May 30,
1880; third games on May so. 1881, and on
July 4, 1882, the club held picnic and
games at Scnuetzen Park, Union Hill,
5000 persons being present. The club
disbanded the following month, and moth
ing more was heard of it until August 4.

last Wednesday evening. Thegcontracting
parties were Mr.. William billiard, men,

After the couple had been united, however,
they repaired at once to the residence OF
the brides parents, where brilliant recep-
ton was held till midnight. when Mr.. and
Mrs. billiard started on trip to Niagara

A Summer fete opened at Trinity Hall,
Hoboken, on Tuesday evening, under the
aus oices of Trinity Guild, aaa continued on
Wednesday and Thursday aftsrnoon and
evening. The affair was Of the nature of
church fair, tables presided over by the
ladies of the church being loaded with
variety of articles for sale. On Wednesday
and THURSDAY evenings, from till II
o'clock, dancing was the chief attraction.
The attendance WIS small On the first two
days, on account of the rain, and Thursday
was an extra day on that account. Mrs.
Professor Morton and Mrs Mabsn pre-
sided over the fancy table; Mrs. DIR. Elder
and Mrs. DR.. Stillman over tho flower table;
Mrs. Col B. T. Hart over tbs candy table;

of strangling man. The sentence pro-
duced revulsion of public sentiment.
Strong men were appalled, at the possibility
of so beautiful a tempter as the convicted
wife being taken out for execution, and
there was a olamor for new trial. They
were poor; and Emma Abbott solicited sub
scriptions in Wall street for their aid, and
even gave them public benefit at her own
expense in the Tabernacle. The Court of
Errors yielded to the popular clamor. To
the surprise of everybody the defence
rested without offering word OF testimony
and the acquittal came Mrs. Smith held
perfect levee at the Jail for the rest of the
afternoon, and was the most talked about
woman in the country for days afterwards.
That none of the public sympathy aroused
by the conviction was for Bennett, was
evidenced by the fact that when Bennett
hired the Academy of Music to lecture a
few days afterwards, less than fifty people
went to hear him. It was assumed that
after the trial, he and the woman would
marry each other, but she turned her back
on Bennett at once, and refused to have
any thing to do with him. She afterwards
lived with the son of well-knowl official,
and was said to be his wife, but they
separated after time and she is now in
New York. Bennett is doing heavy tragedy
with Indifferent skill, in travelling dramatic
companies. 1t was always believed that he
confessed to Dominic Rice his part In the
crime; and the lawyers who figured in the
case agree in saying that Mrs. Smith was
guiltless of all responsibility for it.
The unrayeliDg of the crime that sacri-
feed Kankowsky's life on the gallows q
few years later shows the skill of some
newspaper men for intelligent detective
work. Gus Seide, the young reporter who
hunted the villain out for the law had moth
ing to begin his researches with save the
little fragment of German newspaper
that lay by the side of Nina Mullers
nangled body in the North Hudson woods.
With this unpromising clue in his hand, he
went about his labors; found the saloon
where it had been given an unknown
woman and an unknown man to wrap a
bottle of wine in; learned there from which
direction they had come; traced the woman
by the gay feather in the hat that lay be-
side her. past one house and another till

Fertilizers and Grass.

The principal crop in this country is
grass, more depending on it than any 9TH
er crop. All farmers are aware how diff
ticult it it is to get permanent stand of
any kind of grass. This is caused by con-
tinued grazing, moving or cropping, ex-
hausting certain agencies in the soil, and
without these the grass gives way, the
land becomes bare and is in a manner
worthless. Now to overcome this trou-
BILE is to use a new Fertilizer that will
give back to the soil permanent and
lasting benefit, restoring the principal
agencies that is in all good nea0 soil. This
Fertilizer is also highly recommended
for all grain Especially wheat), root and
vegetable crops, and has given very salts
factory results with many who have used
it the present season on grain, vegetables
and grass. This Fertilizer is offered at
about one-third the price of other good
Fertilizers, and is cleaimed to be equally
as good. Very low figures given to those
who can use it in carload lots. To those
who may wish try this new Fertilizer,
please leave your orders with l.. w. Kin
nison or G. w. Rice, Jackson, o. Call on
them for circulars, prices, terms, sc. l..

From Illinois.

SUMNER HILL, ILL, Aug. 6, 1885,.
To the Editor of the Standard:
Thinking perhaps some of your readers
would be interested in knowing some
thing of this part of Illinois, will write
a few lines. I came here from Gallia
County, Ohio, in August. 1885. This is a
good farming country, but L do not think
it an average of the State, being hilly.
The Mississippi Valley in this county is
splendid farming land. 1t is from five to
six miles wide.
On looking at the card on my paper
this week, find that I will get only one
more number, the time of my subscrip-
ton expiring Sept. 18th. You will find
enclosed twenty-five cents, for which you
will please to continue the Standard to
my address. Yours Truly,
ENoS T. VERNON.
