Wilmington Quit.

The colored ball club, of Wilmington,
came over last Wednesday to cross bats
with the team from this place, but no
satisfactory conclusion was arrived at
as to which was the better team. Hills
boro had things all her own way until
the last two or three innings, when Will
mington took batting streak and, aided
by Hillsboro's errors, forged ahead in
the ninth. In her half Hillsboro got
man on third and one on second with
no one out but Wilmington claimed
that the umpire was giving them decid-
edly the worst of it and quit the game.
The score at the time stood 1912 in
favor of Wilmington but umpire McCon.
naughey gave it to Hillsboro 90.

Council Meeting. /.

Council met on Monday evening with
all members present. Clerk Ayres was
absent and Councilman Rockhold filed
his position with grace and dignity.
In the reading of the minutes Of the
last meeting clerical error was noted
which recorded Mr.. Ervin's vote on
VIM. Huston's contamination as aye,
whereas that gentleman really voted
nay. Mr.. Erwin expressed his willing.
ness to have his vote stand ais recorded,
confirming Huston, but Council, and
the Mayor thought the proceeding
should be little more regular and cor
rected the journal. Huston's confirm.
alton on his next appointment is ex-
pected.
A number of miscellaneous bills for
current corporation expenses were pre-
sented and allowed. The reports of the
Mayor, Police Justice, Street Commits.
sioner and Weighmaster were received.
While the bills were being presented
Billy Wilson. alias "Tug" Wilson, who
recently returned from the Cincinnati
workhouse, presented q bill to Council
for $l.85 for expenses incurred in getting
back home. Tug was afraid his bill
would not be allowed and, after getting
consent, made an eloquent appeal to
Council in behalf of his claim and nearly
succeeded through his silver tongued
oratory in not having it allowed. Tug
seemed to be slightly under the "fuence"
and if he had talked q little longer
would have laid up a foundation for an.
other $l.85 claim against Council.
Mr.. Hughey moved an adjournment
but Mr., Smith objected and wanted to
know why Council was not doing some.
thing about water works. He urged
some action. Attorneys Pavey and Nor
row stated that the hitch in the annexa-
,tion proceedings blocked any further
a etion; that. there had been an error in
the publication of the ordinance and that
the plat from which IT wSs drawn was
incorrect and that the corrected ordi.
nance would not be ready TO present to
Council for . day Or 20. Mayor Davis
showed . disposition TO inquire and
asked why the correction had been de-
lsyed. Mr.. Morrow replied that the
City Engineer had been absent and that
the correction had been entrusted to
Mr.. Duckwall, who had pushed, it as
fast as possible. Council then adjourned
until next Tuesday night.

The large barn OF s. M. Landess, one
mile from Hollowtown, was destroyed
by fire about ten o'clock last Wednes-
day night together with its entire con-
tents and an adjacent corn crib. The
barn contained 200 bushels Of wheat,
800 bushels of corn, 20 tons of hay and
Mr.. 'Landess' entire outfit of harness,
farming implements and machinery. A
new wagon loaded with 75 bushels of
wheat stood near the barn and was also
burnt. The entire loss amounts to
5000, on which there was $3.50 insur-
snce. The origin OF the FIRE is not posi-
lively known, but it u suspected to have
been the work of an incendiary. Mr..
Landess had returned home about nine
o'clock and had not left the barn over
half an hour before the light attracted
his attention. The barn roof vas alssady
iallingin and the Other buildines were
on 6re. - +

The College.

To correct what might be an erroneous
impression left by the article in the last
issue of this paper, relative to the suit
for the dissolution OF the corporation of
the Hillsboro College, we desire to say
in fairness to Prof. Gan that the suit
was not brought because Of any failure
or lack of success on the part of the
present management. On the other
hand, as we'll stated by Gov. Foraker in
his argument in behalf of the continue
ton of the College, "the College now
enjoys the greatest degree of prosperity
known in its whole history and Prof.
Gall deserves the heartiest support and
highest praises for the able and efficient
manner in which it is being conducted
As an educational institution it compares
favorably with many others of the State
and reflects credit on the town." Com.
ing from the source that it does we are
proud of the compliment thus paid to
this old and, to many, sacred school.
We also take pleasure in announcing
that the suit will not interfere we un-
derstand with Prof. Calls contract with
the trustees for the next two years.
The patronage of the school is constant
ly increasing under President Calls
management and the present fall term
will have much larger enrolment than
any previous one, and the classes of
candidates for graduation in the differ.
ent courses will be much larger than
usual. The steady growth of the school
is permanent and assured.

The Ohio Soldier of July 3Oth, in ita
notes on the Sons Of Veterans recent
encampment at Chillicothe, says:
Bro. D. @. Morrow is said tn have
made the speech of his life in nominal
ing Hy. Davis for Colonel. It certainly
was magnificent effort and those who
know the circumstances say that It was
as generous and magnanimous as It was
able and eloquent. Bro. Davis speech
declining the honor was also of very
high order. 1t, too, was characteristic
OF the big hearted, manly fellow that
made it. There never was q scarcity OF
orators in the Ohio division.

LYNUHBURG RACES.
A Small Attendance but Exciting
Sport. s. 49,

LYNCHBURG, o, July goth, 1892.
The third annual meeting of the
Lynchburg Driving Association came to
successful close this evening, and
while the attendance was not all that
could be desired, the races were far
above the average and proves that
Lynchburg has fast track. The only
accident of any consequence was III the
2:40 pace on Thursday. Richball, driven
by J. J. Parker, collided with and ran
over Halloween, driven by P. P. Hard
stock, of Morrow, o. Parker was thrown
off his sulky seat and dragged for a con-
siderable distance but escapedfrom what
seemed certain destruction almost with.
out scratch. Halloween had to be
drawn as result of the, accident. Mr..
Lou Jacks, of Blanchester, acted as
starter and the manner. in which be
handled the horses gives evidence of
his skill in that line. Below is q sum.
mary Of the entire races: =
