see Brother Dave annihilate the Lambs, and
1t wasn't disappointed The game was Of the
avalanche genus, and Omaha received the
banner wallopping OF the season. Twtchell
and Tranilcy occupied the points for the
locals, against O'Day and Ro ;ers for the Wis
itors.
Both sides made run in the first and both
took eggs in the second, and every body set
tied themselves for close and interesting
contest.
In the third. however, the Farmers became
acquainted with the Commodorc's delivery
and he barely escaped with his life.
Hereafter Larry should De kept in the
field.
At the end of the fifth inning tho score
stood to /, and all hope of victory had been
relnqLrshed by the crowd, but when the
Lambs jumped in IN the sixth and after two
hands were out hammered out five runs and
tied the score, the park was IN ahuo-buD.
Right here Shannon should have taken
Larry out of the box. He was an easy mark
from the start, and up to this point no less
than fourteen hits had been made off of him.
but he was kept AT his work and the result
was that the Farmers killed him
Ia the sixth on four singles and three
bagger they run in four more tallies and in
the seventh on two singles, three two-bag
gers and two triples they piled up only eight
and the Lambs couldn't have pulled
the game out with a derrick
The playing OF the home team was childish
from the start, while that of the visitors was
gigantic and so nothing better than what hap
pened could be expected.
Gaffney was at his best and Raymond dem
onstrated that he does know how to be a gen
tlemhn after all.

Warden Tucker said to a REPuBIr-
CAN reporter yesterday, taking him by
the arm, do You see those spots up on
the ceilingf Well the attention Of the
Jail commissioners has been called TO
the fact that the roof Is leaking and
needs repairing, but thus far nothing
has been done to remedy the leak. In
little while said the warden the plas-
ter will begin to fall of and that will
add more expense to the county. The
Jail Is In bad condition, it needs
repairing badly. Why the hole that
the buns made when they broke out a
week or so ago, has not yet been
repaired, although the attention of the
proper authorities have been repeat
edly called to 1t. The warden nailed
some boards on, and had dumped
several wheelbarrow loads OF broken
stone and glass In the hole and that is
the condition it remains in at this writ
ing. The warden has had the jail
whitewashed twice since he has taken
the position,and the PRISONS free from
that offensive odor that pervades our
city hall. A committee who would
look after the needs OF the Jail is what
Is wanted. M..l ....e

party had been committed by its lead
ers III Congress to that policy. This
being the case l don't see how the
Democratic party can nominate MIR.
Cleveland after the declaration in his
letter to the Reform Club. IL seems
to me that his letter takes him out Of
the list of possible candidates for 1892.
Up to the time of writing that letter
he was unquestlonably the popular
favorite of the Democratic party
throughout the West and Southwest.
III Cleveland can get the nomina-
ton believe that letter will defeat his
election"
Mr.. Gilman thought that Governor

him as Presidential candidate.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 1s.-Mr. Mclean, of
Pittsburg, whose wife was killed by
the accident to the steamer Sherlock
last night, had tho melancholy salts
faction this morning of hearing that
the body OF his little granddaughter,
MargciyL. Brown, had been recov-
cred at Riverside, whore the upper
works of the boat wero beached last
night. Beyond these two there is yet
no positive assurance of loss of life,
although n number of persons on aud
about tho wreck tell of seeing persons
apparently sink.
An a.cu1ation is made by one of the
cabin boys that the mate and engineer
on the boat were both drunk and that
the crew was short. He will he held
as II witness. 1t is true that the col
ored deck hands demanded doltar u
day instead OF SIS n month just before
the beat started, and, being refused,
they went ashore 4 circumstance that
no doubt saved the lives of passengers.

LANCASTER, Feb. 1s.-Martin Rupp,
the Bareyille faster, brought his nine
teen days fast to a close on Monday
night. partaking, as he expressed it, Of
such food as the spirit prompted him
to take. He appears none the worse
for his long abstentiou from food. and
Is In quite a cheerful frame of mind.
There is no doubt about the fast being
a genuine one and that nothing but
water passed his lips during the time.
Many visitors called upon him dur
ing the fast and he conyersed intelli-
gently with all. Among these were
many members of the German Baptist
lDnnkalk) Church of Bareville, of
which Mr.. Rupp is member and in
which congregation there has been
trouble recently, this being the cause
OF blr. Rupp'S fast.
At the commencement of the fast
Mr.. Rupp expressed the determination
Of remaining in bed without food un-
til he had received such divine lnsplra-
tion as would enable him to adjust the
trouble and bring peace to the church,
and 1t is stated that this has been ac-
complished, largely through the inter
est aroused in Mr.. Rupp's fast.

West CHESTER, Feb. 1S.-The case of
Robert Simpson against Lawyer Alfred
p. Reid was on trial In the courts to-
day for six hours, and late in the af-
ternoon the plaintiff suffered nom
suit on technicality. A new suit will
at once be brought by Mr.. Simpsons
attorneys. Mr. Reid, who settled the
estate OF George simpson, brother of
Robert, in California, secured over
$4,000 as Roberts share, and he re-
tanned 10 per cent. of this sum, or
81, 800 as counsel fees. This, it Is
claimed, was an exorbitant charge us
very little active work was done in the
case. Simpson, who is an illiterate
man, did not know that Mr.. Reid had
retained $1,000, he alleges, until he
went to California in 1888, and there
met the widox of his brother, who re-
vealed to him the amount OF money
that had been sent East.

years for the purpose OF purchasing
large tracts OF land, and then plotting

prices. Now, there is not many better
places to invest your money in build
ing lots than right here at home in VIII

two years nearly double in value.
have several lots which / will sell
cheap, and l think, without doubt, in
less than two years they will sell for
twice as much as am now asking for
them. Buy a good building lot for
S115 and You could build snug frame
house for $500, making your home cost
less than $1,000. The interest and
taxes would be less than $40 per year.

tive Sweet, of Idaho, Introduced a

forth that certain national banks in
