BASE BALL.-The Frank Jones
base ball club, of this place, played
the first nine of Martinsburg on
Monday last, on the grounds of the
latter, which resulted in a score of
s to 2 in favor of Martinsburg. The
weather was very disagreeable and
raining at intervals, yet quite a large
crowd of ladies and gentlemen were
present to see the game, and all
passed off in harmony and quiet
ness. The game was called at
S:15 with our boys at the bat, who
at once began the play in most
graceful and earnest manner. Bril-
liant playing was done on both sides,
and until the 7th inning the score
stood 3 to 3 for Martinsburg, but a
wild throw by our side from lst to
Srd base let them get in four runs:
and again in the 9Th they made an
other run on an error. Our boys
played an excellent game to the end,
but the absence of two of their reg
ular nine was much felt and the
physical condition of pitcher Nc
Night told upon the game, though
he did fine playing, and was not bat
ted a great deal. The scores on
our side were made by Hooff S. b.
and Davis f. b. in the 1st and 3rd
innings. Our club returned home
we'll satisfied with the result Of their
playing, and specially pleased with
the correct and just decisions ofthe
umpire, Mr.. j. $. Robinson.

LEG BRoKEN.-There was one un
fortunate occurrence during the
Democratic demonstration on Sat.
urday night. Mr.. j. Hite Marshall,
of Bunker Hill, got into alteration
with policeman John Poisal, who
either knocked or threw him down,
and in falling Mr.. Marshall got his
leg broken. Bystanders stated that
Poisal used his club after Marshall
was down. The affair should be the
subject of rigid investigation by the
Council, and ifthe circumstances are
as reported the policeman ought 10
be punished, as there should never
be any needless severity allowed by
an officer. Mr. Marshall is q very
quiet gentleman and it is hardly
credible that he would have given
cause for the treatment received

Mr.. Marshall was for number Of
years q resident of this county, and

friends in this community are very
indignant at the outrage, and sim
cerely hope that the matter will be
rigidly investigated, and If reports
are true that Poisal will receive the
full penalty of the law.

MARRIED HIS DAUGHTER.
Horrible Discovery by q Merchant
of New York-UncOnsciously
He Commits Incest.

a story is published to-day that
Isaac Waldorf, " merchant of this
C w, has discovered that he is mar
cd to bis own daughter. Waldorf
separated from bis wife in Austria
many years ago and came TO America.
He married again and had three chill
dfen by his, second wife. This wife
died some years ago. One day about
eighteen months ago Waldorf met n
pretty young girl on the street who
was crying and said she had just come
from Vienna and had lost her way.
He befriended her and took her TO
his home temporarily. His children
liked her, and he retained her as gov
erness and finally married her. She
in time became mother. Rccently
he. mothor came from Vienna TO visit
her. AMI recognized Waldorf as her
husband. The Grand Rabbi has been
appealed to for advice in straiGhten-
ing out SO far rs possible Che unior-
tunate relations among the parties.
1t is thought that WaIdorf's second
marriage was bigamous ana his chill
dren by it illigtimate, and his third
marriage is of course void in law ms
well as morals.

LUTATOR Y.

We have the honor and pleasure Of.
presenting, this evening, ths sasst
copy of the EVENING News with the
fervent hope and the trembling be-
lief that it will be kindly received.
The highest compliment which could
possibly be paid that admirable Even
ing, now Morning, Day is con-
tanned in the. fact that, while be-
LIZ called to the higher field of
morning journalism, it made in
the evening field, an evening paper,
almost If not quite necessity. 1t
would be egotism, in almost any one,
to suppose that they could fill the
place made vacant by the Evening
Day. The publishers of the NEWS
have no such egotism. They do,
however, hope that, by publishing n
bright newsy paper, handsomely
printed, full of state and homo news,
carefully correct market reports and
gossipy items, they may, in a certain
measure, approach the inimitable ia
vor which the Day deservedly won.
The claims To advertising patronage
= will be made solely in business way:
on basis of circulation, and we are
happy to. state that the assured circu-
lation of the current month already
entities the paper to respectful consid-
Grafton at the hands of advertisers.
All newspapers are, of course, ven-
lures, and the EVENING News is not
an exception. 1t has reasonable am.
bition to hope that it may make q
live, permanent paper, and second tt
that is the ambition that, if, in the
mutations and uncertainties of life, il
should not, that it may, at least
make respectableand pretty corpse
