A Happy Reunion Mt California.

The Twenty-second Pennsylvania Cavalry
and the First West Virginia Infantry held
theirjoint annual reunion at California, Pa,
last week. The occasion was made gala one
BY the old soldiers of the Monongahela Val
ley and Washington county. On Thursday
evening Department Commander Denniston,
Comrades W. II. Lambert, W. T. Speer,
Comrade Egey, Comrade Rev. B. r. Core and
others attended the opening of the reunion.
Comrade Chill Hazard, of Monongahela
City, was master Of ceremonies. The exer-
cises were held in the hall of the Normal
school. So great was the crowd that half
the people could not get into the place.
They came in buggies, wagons and boats
and packed the house and more. Among
the other Pittsburgers who made addresses
was 8. N. Trent, whose effort wss highly
praised. The reunion was continued through
Friday and Saturday and the old boys never
had a more enjoyable time.

RAIDED THE SALOONS.
The Stock of Original Paccnge Houses IN
Des Moines Taken.

DEs MONIES, August "A horde Of
constables swooped down upon the original
package houses of Des Moines to-day and
seized the stock of each of them. This action
is the result of the passage Of the Wilson
bill, which the President made operative by
his signature yesterday.
The dealers had anticipated movement
of this kind, and their places were found
encumbered by very light stocks. A great
deal of litigation will grow out of these
seizures, as the best lawyers contend
that the Iowa law bearing upon importa-
tions was set aside by the Federal Courts
decision in the original package case.

citation.

REDEEMED THEuSgLVES.
THE SENATORS PUT UP GREAT BALL AT
SAN FRANCISCO.
Eight Thousand People Witness the De-
feat of Their Home Nine-The
Best Game Yet.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 25th.-The grandest
game OF the season was played here to-day
between theSenators and the San Franchises
1t was twelve-inning contest, and the visit.
ors carried off the victory amidst intense
excitement. The visitors played splendid
fielding game, but Bowman's work was
very poor and Zeigler's muff let in two
| runs. There was some excuse for Bow
man, as the diamond was very dusty, and
the wind at times almost blinded the
catcher.
Harper and Young both pitched splen-
did ball, but the former received the better
support.
The feature of the game was q magnifi-
cent one-handed catch by Hanley in the
tenth inning, when he shut out home-run
hit by Zeigler.
The score was 6 to 5 at the opening of
the ninth inning, when San Francisco was
BANKED. When the Senators took their
turn at the bat Bowman hit single past
second and stole the next base. Then
Stapleton hit to short and Sweeney let the
ball pass, Bowman scoring.
The next three innings saw some very
pretty fielding. The San Franchises were
BANKED every time at the bat, although
they got man as far as third in the tenth
In the twelfth, for Sacramento, Stapleton
was first up, and hitting to Shea, was
thrown out at first, and Cedar struck out.
Things began to look as if another inning
would be played. Reitz, however, was
hit by the pitched ball, and started to steal
second. Speer here made his first bad
throw, sending the ball to center field, and
Reitz went 10 third. Then Roberts hit to
Sweeney, who fumbled, and Reit z went
across the plate.
The attendance was 900 Snora.

SUNDAY DESPERATION.
A Peaceable Neighborhood Disturbed by
Drunken Hoodlums.

A Peaceable Neighborhood Disturbed by
Drunken Ho0dlums.
A couple of hoodlums on horseback saw
fit to make race-track OF P street yester-
day afternoon, between Twelfth and Fiji
tenth, much to the annoyance of residents
along the street and to the danger of both
children and adults who found it necessary
to cross the street.
Finally, while going at full speed down
the street, one of the lav-breake7s, who
was loaded to the eyes with beer, shot off
his horse like rocket and fell heavily on
the hard ground at Twelfth street.
A crowd soon gathered, and he was
picked up and carried to the sidewalk,
where it was found that no bones were
broken. He got up, after resting a while,
but fell again, and had to be led away.
Then another wild youth mounted the
horse, and with the companion of the
drunken man resumed the racing. The.
last seen of them they were going down P.
street as fast as their horses could run,
scattering pedestrians at every cross street
on their route.
The police can readily get the names of
the fellows in that neighborhood if they
desire to arrest them. And this suggests
the thought that if a policeman would &C.
casionally pay visit at night to the local
ity between Tenth, Fourteenth, o and r
streets, he might increase his record of ar
rests. About o'clock yesterday morning
q gang of drunken young brawlers paraded
through the streets there yelling and sing
ing at the tops of their voices, the echoes
finally dying away in the vicinity of the
frog-ponds and Idump-piles beyond 1.-THE
levee, in which direction the gang vanished.
Some of the citizens who believe that
they have rights here as well as the hood.
lum class, intimate that their shotguns
may be accidentally discharged some
night when these brawlers disturb them.

they had hidden their booty near the leyee
and went out yesterday morning to get it;
that they quarreled over the division, and
that in the fight Goodwin was shot.
Another theory is that Goodwin was
shot By some one whom he had attempted
to rob or whose house he had entered.
Goodwin, before he died, said that the
shooting took place early in the morning,
and it is set forth as reasonable to believe
that it might have taken place during the
night, as Goodwin positively refused totell
where he had been Saturday night after II
O'Clock. Before that hour he said he had
attended prize-ight at variety theater.
Added to all this, no one could be found
yesterday in the neighborhood of the beet
sugar factory who heard the shooting. The
police only learned of the mans condition
through the Sheriff office, and the Sheriff
learned of it through boy who happened
to pass the shanty where Goodwin lay, and
had observed him.
Sheriff McMulleu and Deputy Sullivan
started out after notifying the police-the
Sheriff going over in the vicinity of
Brighton, IN the hope of hearing of the
murderer or murderers, while Sullivan re-
paired to the neighborhood in which officer
Farrell found him.
THE sHERIFF's SUSPECT.
Sheriff McMullen, accompanied by
Deputy Eagan, drove around the suburbs
during the afternoon, and were rewarded
by coming on the trail of what they con-
cluded must be the Swede described by
Goodwin. They followed him around I'M
Til they finally overlook him at Brighton.
True, he answered the description in sew
eral respects, but upon investigation they
found he was not Swede, but to the con-
trary, was an honest, harmless farmer boy
who was seeking employment. He had been
just engaged to work on Mrs. Carrolrs place
when they arrived. He gave straight &C.
count of himself and of his movements
since yesterday, and in consequence was
not bothered by the officers.
Outside of this individual the Sheriff
could learn of no one answering the de-
scription given by Goodwin who had been
in that neighborhood either Saturday or
yesterday.
AT last accounts last night nothing new
had developed in the case, and there were
no prospects that there would be any, al
though the police will continue their in
vestigations.
