BASE BALL.

An interesting game of base ball was
was played at Athletic Park on Decor
alton Day between the Hazleton and
the Bloomsbury Y. M. c. A. Clubs.
The game was called at 4 o'clock with
the Hazleton club at the bat and ran
along smoothly with Bloomsbury lead
ing in the run getting until the ending
of the fifth inning, when the Captains
of the two clubs decided to play an
other inning and then call the game,
so that the Hazleton boys could make
the up train on the N. & w. B. R.
R., but during the following inning the
Hazleton club assisted by Bloomsburgs
costly errors, succeeded in piling up
seven runs and tieing the score. The
Hazleton then declared their intention
of staying here and playing the rest OF
the game, and a slight argument arose
over this sudden change Of things but
was finally settled and the game finish
ed, Bloomsburg winning by the score
of I2 to 10.

ORGAN RECITAL.

The new organ at the Presbyterian
church was heard in public for the first
time last week Thursday evening. when
David d. Wood, organist of St. Steph-
ems church, Philadelphia,ga gave a recital.
Although entirely blind, Mr.. Wood is
considered one of the finest organists
in the country, and considering his loss
of vision he is probably one of
the most wonderful organists in the
world. About $50 people constituted
the audience. The selections were
such as displayed the capabilities of the
instrument to the best advantage. call
ing into use the softest tones of the
dulciana, the several solo stops, and all
the other combinations, up to the full
power of the great organ. 1t is a fine
instrument, costing $4,000, and was
made by Hook & Hastings of Boston
1t has two banks of keys, 23 stops and
about 500 pipes. The bellows is
worked by water motor.
The programe consisted of the fol
lowing selections:
Tocatto In +. j. 8. Bach
symphony In C.. Minor Beethoven
March Flambeau Meyerbeer
Macht Stucke Schumann
symphony In + flat Mozart.
Minuet and Chorus Handel
Sprenade Beethoven
overture to William Tell Rossini
In an artistic view the recital was
beyond criticism. AS a popular en-.
tertainment it was not a success, be.
cause the selections were all classical
and none but educated musicians could
thoroughly enjoy them The singing
Of two selections by Miss Beth Run
yon, whose sweet voice charmed al
hearers, was highly appreciated.
The acoustic properties of the
church were shown to be excellent, a:
the organ music and the singing could
both be heard very distinctly, without
the suggestion of an echo.

EAST BENTON.

Last Sunday afternoon a cloud arose
in the North from this place and be-
gan to thunder, and directly roar, and
the wind blew gale and the rain
poured in torrents, and the hail fell
thick and fast about the size of
cherries. After the storm we thought
we would look around little, and a
little east of us we found there had
been terrible hail storm. Wagon
loads were washed into piles, and Nh.
John Ashelman's fields were torn with
cutters and the growing crops appar-
emily destroyed. Daniel Ashelman,
John Hoyt and others in the line were
great sufferers.
At Cambria it hailed about fifteen
minutes, but did not do as much dam
age as at the places mentioned. The
storm seemed local and centered in
the Raven Creek valley, and exhaust
ed itself. When the rain was over
there was no evidence of the storm
passing into any other locality. 1t is
seldom that we see such waterfalls de
scending from the clouds.
The farmers can console themselves
that the Legislature has adjourned
''sine die. 1t were better it never re-
convened than forever to ignore their
claims. If Treasurer Boyer knows
better what is best for the farmers,
those supporting the Boyer bill must
look to him for future support.

OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT.
A BAND OF YOUNG ToUGHS ASSAULT A
YOUNG WOMAN AND BEAT HER ES-
CORT. SEVERAL ARRESTS.

One of the most outrageous cases OF
felonious assault that has disgraced this
community occurred on Saturday night
last, and the victim of licentious brut-
alitv, Miss Maggie Andy, of Mahoning
township, is now lying seriously i'll
from the effects Of the treatment re-
ceived.
She is an employee at the upper
Bennett farm and on Saturday evening
visited town with a male employee on
the same farm. While here, it is said,
her companion became intoxicated,
and she was compelled to request the
escort of young gentleman acquaint-
ance of this place on her return home.
When the couple had pursued their
way some distance along the Reading
railroad above the depot, couple of
young toughs approached and attempt
ed to take liberties with the girl. Her
escort showed fight, when a gang, un-
til then in hiding, rushed on him, beat
him brutally, and sitting the girls
outcries carried her to a neighboring
wood.
What followed can better be imagin-
ed than described. There were about
dozen young men engaged in the
outrage. When they departed the half
crazed and seriously injured girl sue
ceeded in making her way to a house
not far from the scene, where she was
cared for, and where she still remains
under physicians care and in pre-
carious condition.
Warrants were issued for those
known to be present at the outrage,
and late on Tuesday night, under the
direction of Chief of Police Baker, a
raid was made on the district where
the accused reside, and several were
taken into custody and put in jail. A
guard was at once put on outside the
Jail, as we'll as extra precautions taken
in locking up the accused. But so
execrable is the condition of that
house of detention that there is a
public demand that the prisoners be
taken to some more secure place. If
the grand jury needed anything further
to induce them to report in favor of
new Jail this fact ought to be sufficient.
The accused cannot be tried at this
term of court. Before the September
term arrives the Chief of Police hopes
to have others of the gang in custody.
If they be proven guilty their sentence
will not be light one, for it is report
ed that they are part of the crowd
who raised the riot at the White Church
festival two summers ago, and who at
the time of their sentence for that Of
fense were told that subsequent con-
viction before the court for violation
of the law would not allow considera-
tons of clemency.-Ddnville Lateli
gencer.
Seven of the men engaged in the
above outrage, were arrested, and on
Monday four of them were brought
from Danvlle to Bloomsburg and
placed in the Columbia County jail
for safe keeping, by an arrangement
with the county commissioners. Two
of the seven were admitted to bail in
Danville, and another is held as wit
ness.

A Peddler Attacked.
HE is SET UPON BY THREE MEN AND
daddy BEATEN.

Between nine and ten o'clock last
week Thursday night Ermin Strehng,
an Arab peddler, was attacked by three
men on the road leading to Centralia.
He was on his way to Ashland, where
he intended TO seek nights lodging,
and when half mile from town and
at a lonely point in the road two men
sprang from the bushes and began
beating him in terrible manner. A
third man, wearing mining clothes, ap-
peared on the scene and joined in the
assault.
One of them took his box, contain
ing watches, chains and other valuable
articles, while the other two continued
beating the peddler until he fell insen'
sible in the road. They began pocket
ing the valuables and before they had
finished three workingmen came down
the road and they took to the woods
Officers are investigating and have
hopes of finding the guilty parties.

The wording of our report OF the

might, perhaps, give the impression
that Drs. Arment and Brown either

was not the fact. After doing all that
was possible, they went to supper, In

were gone DR.. Gardner was called IN
