A Feyy words In Kickers.


Reports have been numerously circu.
lated in the city to the effect that members
Of the Wheeling base ball team spent los,
Tuesday night in GAINESVILLE in visiting
saloons and imbibing freely in into1icsnts.
This rumor, like many others Of the kind,
is decidedly false, and those who circu.
lated such reports have very little 10 dc
and are no friends of the Wheeling club.
The boys did not reach Zinssville from
Lima until about "a. H., and they oil
went to bed at the Kirk House
almost Immediately, sleeping until. 6
o'clock the next morning.
Not one member of the Wheeling team
has been drinking, and they are doing
everything they know how to retrieve
their lost fortunes. No base ball lover In
Wheeling feels half as bad as the members
of the club over their sudden drop and
successive string Of defeats, and they have
every confidence in the world that when
the cloud Of ill-luck once breaks they will
pull out Of the hole and come TO the front
again. Financially, the club Is In good
shape, and will come back from the trip
with neat sum ahead. Manager
Buckenberger, as well as the boys,
is at loss to account for
their drop in batting, and fully expects to
see his men find the ball again and pound
out victories. To give the club such blasts
as some people have been doing, and to lie
on the boys. is no way to encourage them.
The season isn't half over yet, and Wheel.
ing will coon have twenty seven games on
the home grounds. II they don't make Z
good record then people will have just
cause TO kick. They have had everything
to contend against on the trip, and when
they get in good shape again the condition
Of thingu will change very perceptibly.

On Saturday afternoon of last week, a
sad and fatal accident occurred on the
river a short distance east of Mt. Jackson,
this county, by which Mr.. Joseph Haw-
kins lost his life. The unfortunate man
had been to town to make some purchases,
and on his return he found some parties
building foot bridge at Mr.. J. Z. Miller's
crossing. Finding them ready to put a
heavy log in place he set aside his pack
ages and volunteered TO assist. The
heavy piece of timber was being carried
to the top of the sbutment by means OF a
long skid, and when near the top the
chain broke. permitting the end to swing
around with terrific force. Seeing his dan
ger Mr.. Hawkins attempted to get out OF
the way but unfortunately caught his foot
and fell the log striking him with crush

breast had been crushed in and both jaws

youd all earthly assistance, and after
lingering about six hours death came to
his relief. Mr.. Hawkins was a good citl-
zen and respected by all who knew him.
He was a member of the Mt. Jackson com
pany in the 33rd Va, Regiment, Stone

ResoIred, That the Shenandoah County
Temperance Alliance pledge itself to vote
for temperance men only for the various
Offices of the county. In the discussion OF
the resolution the object Of the Alliance

cially the young people OF the county is
arrayed against the whisky traffic be-
