The Portland daily press., 1891-07-30

The American Cadet Band accompanied
the party throughout the trip. On the way
down the rain poured incessaatly, and upon
arrival at Jenks's Landing there was no
| dimlnution. But the band formed on the
wharf. and, undeterred by the rain, the
boys formed In line and marched gaily to
the hotel.
A game Of ball had been planned and
the boys determined to have 1t; so two mines
were formed, ,one with the following players
ley, LIST base; GOogins, I'd base; T. Head, Sd
base; M0xcey, sh0rtStOp; Perry, left field; Prin-
dable, right field; f. b. Haskell, centre field.
The other nine was:
G Heffon, catcher; Hamel pitcher; Malone,
LIST base; Baston, I'd base; Smith, Sd base; Le-
roy Sanborn, sh0rtstOp; Westwood, left ned
simpson, centre Held; Richardson, right field.
Mr.. Fl. Fl. Hunt officlated as umpire, aud
delivered as good decisions as could be- ex-
pected on an occasion Of such general hui
midity. For 1t rained continuously through
the game. Mr.. Libby captaIned one nine,
and Mr.. Westwood the other. The field was
wet. and the ball soon became so slippery as
to defy all skin. At the end of three In
nings game was called. Captain LIbby's
nine, which had the conspicuous aid Of ON
Ger Williams, won by score Of 10 to 0. This
was the score Umpire Hunt had. No other
score agrees with It, but 1t Is probably au-
thentic. The Westwood boys lay their de-
feat to Policeman Smith, who was supposed
to be the Jonah who brought on the rain.
After the game all hands were grouped on
the hotel piazza for photograph.
The dinner had to be the central event Of
the day. for II was the only exercise that did
not have to be taken In the rain. The dining
room at the hotel would not hold all the
company. so extra tables had been set along
the long verandah
The dinner was excellent and greatly en-
joyed. Here Is the bill OF fare:

To give some idea of the quality of
the iron we need to mention that the
first sugar kettles ever made in this
country were invented by John Ros-
sitter and made at Louisa furnace, di-
rectly from the ore, and after that
at Bear Spring or Carlyle, and so
powerful was the strength of the
metal that a man could not break
one with sledge hammer. The
iron from these old furnaces was also
used for making steam boat boilers
and not one was ever known to fail.

Privilege Tax on oonveyanoes.

The question whether the law i'm
poses a privilege tax on mortgages
deeds of gift, etc, has been raised
The old law imposed a tax on all
sales of land, but did not tax mort.
cages. The new law reads: CAL
transfers of realty" Clerk G. d.
Bailey wrote Comptroller Allen for a
construction of the law. His answer
is: "CO'lect tax on all deeds" Mr..
Bailey has written for more eX-
plicit or definite construction OF the
act. The law is bunglesOme and not
clear on many such things.

TROUBLE AT BRIcEVILLE.
Four Hundred Conviots Released by
Free Miners.

The Americans dispatches to day
reveal deplorable state of affairs at
Briceville. One hundred and fifty con-
viets were released by the free min
ers there last night and an immense
stockade was burned, 1t is said that
5000 miners, armed with Winches-
ter rifles, did the work, and that no
lives were lost, as the guards submit
ted quietly to the great odds against
them. The telegraph wires are de-
moralized and it is hard to get reli-
able information from the seat OF
trouble.
After liberating the convicts at
Briceville the miners advanced on
Coal Creek, where 800 were turned
loose in the mountains, and the
stockades were also burned. 1t is
said that the couvicts have been sup
piled with citizens clothing and that
they have crossed into Kentucky.
The situation is critical, and what
the outcome will be is only conjec-
ture. The convIc,s are all at large,
however, anu the free miners hold
the fort.
