PORTLAND, o., June 9.-"Do you think
the railroad is coming ?" is an oft repeated
iuterrogatory in this section. We can only
judge specifically as to ito coming bu'
if continued surveys, visiting railway mag
mates, leasing of coal lands, aud securing
right of way are indications of q railway
line, then Short Creek is pretty sure oil
welcoming the ''iron horse" before another
year. Farmers near Portland have pledged
the right Of way through their land, and
several have leased the coal underlying
their farms. A few of the ''stick-hards'
have theiT hands in their pockets yet, and
only awaiting q favorable remuneration
for their property.

INTERESTING EVENTS IN VARIOUS FIELDS
OF AMUSEMENT.
Ths National Gams-HOw the Battle Wakes Warm
in The League and AssOciatOn-NOses
from the Diamond-Dra-
mahc News

The struggle for the League pennant
couldn't well be more exciting. The four
leaders are so close together that during
the week several changes have taken place
in the positions. New York has been sec
ond, third and fourth and so has Boston.
Detroit has hoped up from fourth to sec
ond place and has nice hold Of the last
named position now. Chicago has steadily
maintained its hold of first place, but its
grip is becoming very unsteady. How
ever, the four first clubs are so closely
punched as to make every game interest
ing. Undoubtedly, Detroit has shown 70
best advantage during the week and yes
terday's game at Boston is proof that the
veterans are still possessed Of their remark
able staying qualities. They have not won
the pennant yet, of course, but they are
rapidly getting warmed up and
when once they are fairly heat
ed they will soon have q good
hold OF first place. Chicago's work Is not
to be spoken lightly of. Ausou's men, IN
deed, have been doing remarkable work,

Journey so we'll as the seasoned sluggers
of Detroit. Chicago's game Is somewhat
unsteady one; this is the result OF the
players being comparatively young. Bos-
ton does not look like winner by any
means and Judging from the work OF the
team so far this season it will not finish In
the first three; indeed, Philadelphia is ex-
tremely liable to beat the Bostons out.
Pittsburg has not held its own IN the
East, but considering that the club Is
away from home and practically with only
two pitchers, it has done well. The
HOLSTERS are still doing wretched work IN
the field, aud as soon as they can steady
themselves in that respect they will GER
tainly creep up little. They will make
matters very warm for Pittsburg; that is
if the latter does not secure another good
pitcher. Following is the standing OF the
clubs up to Saturday.

MARTINS FERRY.

On aud after tomorrow the grocery,
dry goods, hat and shoe stores will all close
at Z p. m. until September 1st next.
Political matters are exceedingly quiet
here considering that this is Presidential
year. Even the Democrats, who have
their ticket nominated, seem very quiet,
and among Republicans no thought is
given to politics at all Once in while
you hear Sherman, Gresham, B aine OF
Depew mentioned, but there are no con-
troversies, and but little interest. -Four
years ago at this time the probable Presi-
Dental nominees were the chief topic OF
conversation. This year people seem more
inclined to attend to business and allow
politics to look out for itself.
Yesterday was typical J une day, and
the farmers were in town in large numbers
with their produce. Berries and the
earlier vegetables were the most common
articles offered for sale, and the market
was pretty well supplied,
The City Council and the Board Of
Water Works Trustees held a private con,
ference in the Office of the trustees on Fri,
day evening. The matter brought up was
the suits of the late employees Of J. N.
Kimmins vs. the City, for money due then,
fo- work performed for Kimmips. one Of
these suits has Easu tried and decided
against the city, aud some members of the
two bodies deem it unreasonable to fight
the others which are to come. The result
of the conference remains the secret Of the
members of the two bodies.
An interesting meeting OF the Board oi
Education was 6eld on Wednesday night
last. All the members were present ex-
cept Capt. Abram Lash, who was out Of
town. The matter Of electipg superin-
tendeht was brought up, and several ap.
plications voted on. Messrs. WIlliams
and Montgomery voted no ON sll sppli.
cations offered Mr.. Shreveis not appear
ingl while Messrs. Smylie, Chissell and
Muilaney voted aye on come and no on
Others. Mr.. Lash's absence made an
election impossible, unless either Williams
or Montgomery should change their vote,
and this neither OF them did. The mat.
ter of electing teachers was not brought up,
Matters are rapidly assuming such shape

Aside from its charms, its dash, its
buoyancy Of motion, its special or general

reasons why il is better, and one Of the

And sometimes on his head.

And puts il in his lap;

This naughty little chap,
Your silk umbrella, Spick and span,
He sticks in deep-rat holes
And with his mothers rareSt fan
Hammers your frailest bowls
He ties the pendulum with a string
While singing baby songs;
He's always sure to put one thlng
Where something else belongs.
He'll take a match and light the eat,
He'll paint the poOdle's head
And poyr frail crackers in your hat
And leave them in your bed
Adown the register he'll throw
The spOols with nimble wrist;
He's often wished in Jericho
The Baby Anarchist

Nor whip him till he roar

The Association fight is becoming hotter
and hotter as the season ages. The feature
of the week has been Cincinnati's disas-
trous weakening. Defeats by Brooklyn
and the Athletics have forced the Reds
down to third place, and as they now meet
the st. Louis Browns in four games 1T Is
not improbable that they will 60 even
lower before the week is over. Brooklyn
has a strong grip on first place, with lead
of over one hundred points, the Browns
next. Baltimore and the Athletics are do
ing good work and are now tied for fourth.
The chances however, are against BARNES
men who have been playing Kansas City,
while the Philadelphians have had to strug-
gle with the Reds. Louisville continues
her miserable work and is losing games
