PUTS Us UP CLOSE.
WHEELING ONLY SEVENTEEN POINTS BACK
OF LIMA.
Good Game on The Island Park Ysstsrday-Lima
Defeated by Oolunbus-Ths Other
League Contests.
Another good game yesterday.

Another good game yesterday.
Good games are getting monotonous.
In fact, they are too numerous to mem
ton, almost. But hits are scarce lately.
Especially on the Wheeling side. The
boys don't slug the ball the way they did
week ago. But they get there just the
same. Because they are the best felders
in the League Nobody doubts that. 1t
wouldn't make any difference if they did.
The fact remains. And it's windy day
when they don't line the ball out. Last
Saturday was very windy. So was yes
terdsy. jackson got more hits than we
did. But we made the most scores And
that's what wins games. There is no get
ting around that The GAINESVILLE team
can't kick on that fact Therefore it must
be 50. 2to1. That's the way it stood at
the end of the ninth inning. jackson had
the 1. That's the reason she lost. But
she's nobody's snap. The club that thinks
that is very liable to get fooled. Wheel
ing had to hustle to beat her. And any
team that makes Wheeling hustle Is q
good one. Because, as we remarked be-
fore, Wheeling has the best hitters. Nice
looking set OF men, too. We hate to beat
them. But it has to be done. Because
we are. after the pennsnt, you know.
That's the reason We won the sixteen
straight Crotty is wrong, He says he
solved the mystery. But he didn't give
the reason. Perhaps he will be kind
enough to tell us why we ore going to win
sixteen more. We know it now, however.
Because we have the best team in the
Lesgue, as we said before. Sixteen all in
a row. too. Perhaps more. It's hard To
tell where the boys will stop when they
get started. Jimmy Curry, recently re-
leased by Columbus, il managing the
Jsxs. Also playing second base. The
Columbus papers say Jimmy had an in
.briate asylum to take care of out there.
We don't know about the asylum. j. @.
ia a good fellow, and ball player from
way hack. So is Stickney. jackson
scored in the second. An earned run, too.
Curry got two.baser. Eagan and Crotty
singles. But they were both left
Wheeling got two in the fourth. And
that's all. But it was enough. Because
Jackson couldn't get any more. Hits by
Nichol, Crogan and Stapleton did the
business.
Jsxou again to-day. Which means an
other victory for Wheeling. At least, we
hope 90. Bat it's no sure thing. Jax
hoodooed us before, you remember. And
she may do it again. But we don't think
90.
About 400 people saw the game No
local pride in the town, evidently. Turn
out and see good game Of ball this after
noon. Score:

THE STORM IN OHIO COUNTY.

Report was made 10 the Board of Com
missioners, yesterday morning. that the
roads in some parts of the county were in
terrible shape, as result of the storm of
Monday. The Warden's Run road, between
the Boggs' Hill road and the Peters Run
road, was in such bad shape that it was
fenced mp and travel forbidden, least some
accident should occur. The Peters Run
road is in nearly as bad shape, and on both
large repairs will have 10 be made. Other
roads in the county are in bad shape, but
the two above mentioned are the worst.
Among the damages sustained by private
citizens particularly pitiable case is that
of Hiram Schilling, at Elm Grove. He
had one of the best gardens along the val
ley, but the creek tore through ID like
mill-race, and everything is gone, corn
being as fat rs though run over with
roller, while potatoes and other stnff was
all washed away. He was also compelled
to abandon his house and is now in pretty
bad shape. Some others Jared nearly as
bad.

during the day departed on time, but ar
rivals were very irregular. The Philadel-
phia and Cincinnati express came In from

and the train from the East late last night
