LOUISA DEMOCRATS.
Delegates Elected to the State Convention.
Correspondence Of tho Richmond Dispatch.l

LOUISA G. r.. VA. July O. 1889.
The crowd a. our County Court yesterday
was the smallest seen here for years. The
farmers had all stayed at home 10 do t0I
their crops that which the lncesS2nt rams
of the past week or ten days had rendered
impossible.
a mass meeting Of the Democratic party
was held for the purpose of electlng dele
gates 90 the gubernatOrlal convention.
William keau, Esq, was chairman, and II.
l.. Chilcs secretary. The following dele
gates and alternates were selected:
Green Springs Delegates $. p
Henson. ". H. Anderson. and DR.. Il. p.
May. Alternstcs II. G. Baker, W. Nj.
Piyne. and Clarence Coleman.
Louisa Courthouse Dlstrct-D Delegates :
F.N. Winston. ". T.. BIbb ". T. Meade.

Garth. G.. X. Anderson, John X. Crank, and
E.Q. Dickinson.

ris Aternates: ID. q. Jennings, William
A. Winston, and G. A. Atkinson.
Jackson District-G. W. Thomas and 4.
A. lrice. Alternates W. +. Adam and +.
II. Anderson.
The delegation goes uninstructed. In
fact the name of no candidate was men,
toned in the meeting, and by a resolution
adopted in the outset each nominee for
delegate was required to state in the meet
ing whether or not he was piedyoi 10 any
particular man; and while some Of the re-
sponscs would hardly have been considered
satisfactory IN a court of law yet they salts
fed the meeting.
Shortly after the meeting closed a gentle
man from North Carolina and General j..
e.. Field addressed the citizens. setting
forth the advantages of the Farmers ALI
ance, and succeeded at the close in organ
izing an alliance OF ten members.
No business of general interest was trans
acted by the court. The Chesapeake aud
Ohio Railway Company was indicted by
the grand jury for running freight trains
on Sunday.
The weather is dry and hot, and the
general impression among farmers IS that
rain will be needed before we have 1t again.

EDDIE GLENN INJURED
While Playing Baseball In sioux City.


4 letter in the New York Sporting life
from Sioux City contains the following ac-
count of an accident TO Mr.. Eddie Glenn,
the well-known young baseball player OF
this city:
A very serious accident happened IN
MOndav's game with Milwaukee, and one
that will materially weaken the team. In
running for a hy-ball Robert Burks and
Eddie Glenn collided, and in consequence
our magnificent little lctt-teldcr was so
badly injured that it is not likely that he
will plav again tins season. He was removed
from the ball-fcld to the hotel, where
he remained unconscious until after $
o'clock Monday evening, when he rcgained
consciousness sufficiently to recognize
a few Of his associates. An examination
proved that a cartilage III the vicinity OF
tbe heart was broken. Eddie's absence
from the team means a hole IN the nine
that VIII be hard 70 I'LL. As fielder, base
runner. and batter he has no equal IN the
association. and, as a clever, gentlemanly
little ball-player, he has won his way into
the hearts Of the baseball public, who
sympathize deeply with him and, who
anxiously await his return 20 the held.

ON Her Return.


Rebecca Archer. colorcd child, aged
c.,ht wears, was found deed on the steps Of
house No 6Oi Market Space, which adj
joins the vegetable department OF the Sc
.Ond Market.
The child lived on the premises with her
grandmother. who being obliged 20 90 out

.Iiurius her TO drink no water, as she tthe
cnIldihad been taking ,ome medicine with

down to fhe hydraut, filled can, and wa
slowly crawling bach up the steps when
overtaEen with death.
Coroner Taylor viewed the body ana
heard statements of some OF the people
living in and about the house, but all ne
could learn was that the girl had been sui
frug from GREAT pain ~ the stomach.
Tl,re seemed no doubt that death was
t.e result Of natural causes.
Au domination of the locality where de
ceased had lived and died convinced the
Coroner that 10 was his duty 90 call the at
-..tlou of the Board Of Health 10 It, and he
lId SO. and the Board promised TO look
into the matter. Coroner Taylor Is nothing
ID an alarIuist, but he feels sure that the

close proximity 10 the market, where so
.uch Of the food of Richmond is sold. can
lpt possibly bc prOductiVeoi anything Dut
