Rusie and Buckley were In the points for the
New Yorks. and they had Job lot team to sup

ball the only error being a wild pitch by Rusie
OF a third strike, which gave runner first
base. Ruste pitched beautiful game. and ct

work ELECTED great praise from all. and the
occupants Of the bleach eres gave frequent yells
of What's the matter with Kusie ?" oh. he's

Buckleys work was OF superior kind. 1t is

IT MAY be interesting to the people
# the county to know what is paid for
the printing of the legal publications.
In 1889, as shown by the records and
as published in the lists of bills allowed,
he entire county printing, including
road notices, bills allowed, tax sales,
.tc., amounted to s1,3s0.55. These
publications appeared in the Daily and
Weekly RE sLECToR and the Dickinson
County News. OF the total, over 500
vas for the printing Of the delinquent
ak list which is paid for by the persons
owning the land advertised, 80 that
ess than $3.50 is paid by the taxpayers
for county printing. -

Ienge to trial by lightning being given
and accepted. These were the condi-
tions: The rivals must await the COM
ing OF a serious thunderstorm; no
ordinary tempest would serve their
turn. Then, carrying assegais in their
hands, they must taize their stand with
in fifty PAGES of each other upon a GER
tain patch OF ground where the big
thunderbOlts were observed to strike
continually, and by the exercise of their
occult powers and invocations to the
lightning must strive to avert death
| from themselves and bring it on their
rival: The terms Of this singular match
had been arranged month previously,
but no storm worthy of the occasion had
arisen. Now the local weather prophets
believed it to be brewing.
inquired what would happen if
neither of the men were struck, and was
told that they must then wait for an
other storm. II they escaped the sec
ond time, however, they would be held
to be equal in power, and be jointly con-
suited by the tribe on occasions of i'm
portance.
The prospect Of being spectator of
so unusual a sight overcame nv desire
to be gone, and accepted the chiefs in
vitation to see it out. Before midday 1 re-
GREETED it, for though the western heavens
grew darker and darker and the still air
heralded the coming of the storm, vet it
did not come. By four o'clock it be-
came obvious that it must burst soon
81 sunset, the old chief said-and in the
company OF the whole assembly
moved down to the place of combat. The
kraal was built on the top Of hill, and
below it the land sloped gently to the
banks OF river about half a mile away.
On the other side of the bank was the
piece of land that was, the natives said,
flowed of the lightning" Here the
magicians took up their stand, while the
spectators grouped themselves on the
hillside about two hundred yards away,
which was, 1 thought, rather too near to
be pleasant. When we had sat there for |
awhile my curiosity overcame me, and 1
asked leave of the chief to go down and |
Inspect the arena. He said might do so
at my own risk. I told him that |
the AFe from above would not
hurt white mea. AID went and |
found that it was a bed of iron
ore, thinly covered with grass, which of
course accounted for its attracting the
from the storms as they trav-
eled along the line of the river. At
each end Of this iron-stone area were
placed the combatants, Indaba-zimbi
facing the east, and his rival the west,
and before each there burned little
fire made Of some scented root. More
over, they were dressed IN all the
of their craft, snake-skins,
ash-bladders, and I know not what be-
sides, while round their neells hung cir
,lets of balloons teeth and bones from
