"The Limited Mail.

Since "The Limited Mail" has made
such a phenomenal success, no less than
ten companies have been organized or
have adopted locomotives, cars or similar
effects, but the people appear to readily
"get on to" the fact that Elmer e. Vance's
play is the Simon pure-the Original
Jacobs" so to speak, and while several of
them are side tracked and ready for the
scrap pile, Manager Vance is continually
adding new features to the drama, and
accumulating a larger bank account.

ASHLAND
DOWNED
Exciting Game of Foot Ball at the
TrOtting Park.
BOTH TEAMS FOUGHT HARD
The visitors Were More Stalwart, But
the Home Teams knowledge of the
Game COunteracted Strength.

The Shenandoah and Ashland foot ball
teams engaged in one of the most stub
born contests seen here this season at the
Trotting park. Saturday afternoon, the
home team winning by a score of 6 to o.
The visitors went upon the grounds primed
with confidence and they were not little
surprised when the game got started aud
they realized what they had run up
against.
The Shenandoahs took the kickoff and
landed the ball at the Ashland ten-yard
line. The visitors then proceeded with
the ball, but lost After few gains by
the home team Wertz ran over the line
and scored the first touchdown, the play
having lasted thirteen minutes. Jones
kicked the goal and made the score to 0
in favor of Shenandoah. The interference
of McHale, r. Rose and Jones aided Wertz
considerable in making the touchdown.
The Shenandoahs secured the ball on
the kickoff and lost it on four downs
without the required gain. Ashland pro-
ceeded slowly to the Shenandoah goal.
When but half a minute remained to
complete the first half Captain Jones
called for time, which was granted. Bro
cius ran over the Shenandoah line, not
knowing that time had been called, and
the touchdown was not allowed.
The second half of the game was even
more exciting than the first and the Ash
lands came dangerously close to scoring.
They were prevented from doing so by
Shortalrs excellent tackle. Shenandoah
then took the kick off and Ashland went
down the field through centre like sure
winner, but they lost the ball on tumble
and Frost got it, at the same time receiv-
ing an ugly cut on the forehead. Shen-
andoah gained rapidly on good runs by
Wertz and fine interference on the part OF
A. Rose and Malick. Shenandoah seemed
to have the best of the half when the half
ended.
The game was most exciting one and
the result should arouse sufficient interest
on the part of the public to warrant better
patronage for the home team. They play
hard to give the spectators every advant
age of the game and in Saturdays con-
test they successfully met an exception.

serve encouragement.

Calamity AYerted.

A calamity was barely averted on the
Pennsylvania railroad, near st. Clair,
Saturday night A crew lost control of Il
train of coal and freight cars at Wether-
rill Junction and the train parted while
laundering down the mountain. Near
the st. Clair tunnel the engineer got his
engine under control and met the rear
section with crash. Three cars were
derailed and the wreck was soon cleared
up. The accident happened few min
utes before the Shenandoah train left
Pottsville at $40. 1t was about $3.50 when
the mixed train rushed down the noun
tain and as the freight had instructions
to side track to permit the passenger
train, to pass, a collision was narrowly
averted,

instead of oval. The vehicle has very

forehead in the beginning of the first
half, and Smith wasisubstituted.

tain Jones would have to go many miles
to find man to take his place and play it

OF five or ten yards.
The management went in the hole on
Saturdays game. Ashland received $50

The popularity of open air concerts was
again attested last night by the large as
semblage at the corner of Main and
Centre streets to listen to the concert
given by the Lithuanian Band. The
weather was delightful-genuine Indian
summer weather-aud the inspiring
music made one feel that the summer
months were much closer to the season
than they really are. The Lithuanian
Band is certainly making rapid strides
in grasping the attributes of a good
band ana much of the credit for this is
due to the very able dictatorship of Prof.
Zeitz.

There was an amusing scene on West
Lloyd street, near Main, last evening. As
a party of women were passing over the
board pavement on the south side of the
street huge rat ran across the boards
1t struck the ankle of one of the women
and she involuntarily jumped. When
she saw the rat scamper from beneath her
skirt she gave another jump and screamed
as if she were about to meet with some
thing terrible. AT the same time the
other women saw the rat as it ran TO
it's hole, and they, too, jumped and
screamed. Ifthere had been chairs about
the women would have been upon them
in jiffy. One seemed to be anxious to
climb up the barber pole which was near
at hand. The stripes on the pole seemed
to spread out in laughter over the situa.
tion. Three men who were following the
women hurried up to them when they
heard the screams. When they saw the
vigorous shaking of skirts and learned
that a rat had innocently caused the com
motion they fell into the merriment the
barber's pole was feasting upon.

1t is plain that Father Time is making
inroads upon the lives OF those of the sur
vivors of the Rebellion who reside in
town as well AS other places. The elastic
step of the majority of the "vets" resid-
ing here long since departed, but they re-
tanned sufficient vigor for years after to
parade when occasion demanded and
shoulder a musket or rifle, when it
became their duty to play the last
tribute of respect to one OF their de-
ceased comrades, by firing salute
over his grave. But nature has since
been making more inroads and it can
readily be imagined that it Is with deep
regret that the ''vets" now bow to the in
evitable and say they are now obliged to
call upon the Sons of Veterans TO relieve
them of much of the ceremony attend
ing the funerals. Watkin Waters Post,
No. 146, G. A. r., has officially notified
the members of Henry Horncastle Camp,
No. 40, S. of v, that upon the occasion of
all future funerals in town of veterans
the younger generation will be expected
to hold itself in readiness to carry out
that part of the ceremony requiring the
salute. Following the example set by
the survivors of the Rebellion, as well as
those who fell in it, the Sons of Veterans
have cheerfully and promptly responded
to the call of duty, and the members Of
the camp are now engaged in forming a
firing squad of twenty from their ranks
This squad will provide itself with the
regulation military uniform and the
twenty bronze rifles which the camp owns
will hereafter be ready for active service
in doing honor to the defenders Of the
Union when they receive the final roll
call.

60 TO NEW YORK
Senator German Will Work for Senator
Hill
Reasons for Suppressing His Antipa.
thy to the Empire State
Candidate.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
BALTIMORE, Nd, October 1.-THE
statement is made here today upon un-
questionable authority that Senator German
is going to New York to take a hand in the
cen paign and help Senator Hill along.
The well-known dislike which Senator
German has for Mr.. Hill, and Mr.. Hills
equally well-known aversion for Senator
German, has caused this announcement to
be received with much surprise. Mr.. Cor
n an was in Baltimore Monday and stated
then that he would make one speech during
this campaign, and that one would be in
Maryland. He said nothing about going to
New York. He said his health was not
good enough to permit him to take an ac-
tive part in campaign work, and the state
rNent that he is going to New York to
speak Is causing much comment.
A friend of the Senator says he is moved
by two reasons. one is the constant and
urgent solicitations from the New York
managers. who believe the Senator has a
great deal of influence in the empire state
In the last national campaign MIR. German
spent much time IN New York, and his
reputation as a political wire puller Of high
rank, was much augmented. They want
him again.
Another reason suggested is that while
Mr.. German detests Senator Hill, he thinks
every democrat should try to help the New
York situation as much as possible, particu-
larry the congressional situation, for it is
hardly necessary to say Mr.. German
wouldn't lose a great deal of sleep II Sem
atOr Hill should not be elected governor Of
New York.
The third reason suggested Is that the
Senator wants to be in evidence in the place
where the calcium is brightest, and If any
thing is saved from the wreck, he cannot be
said to have deserted the ship.
There has been great deal of talk about
the little interest Senators German and
Maryland
campaign, and it is said they have not been
urged at all to talk to the voters. The
democrats of the state are notoriously dis
satisfied with the part which Senators Cor
man and Gibson played in the tariff fight
and 1t Is not thought their participation in
the campaign would help matters at all.

AFFAIRS At BLUEFIELDS.
The Marblehead and Columbia Order
ed to Leave for Other stations.

The latest advices from the Mosquito
coast of Nicaragua are so pacific in char
acter that Secretary Herbert has favorably
considered a proposition to grant a respite
to the cfficers and crews of the cruisers Co
lumbia and Marblehead, which vessels have
been detained at the unattractive port Of
Bluefields for months past. Onders were to-
day given for the Columbia to proceed to
Kingston, Jamaica, and for the Marblehead
to go to Cartegena, Colombia, and await
further instructions. These movements are
contingent upon the state of affairs in the
Mosquito country and are based on repre-
sentations that the interests and rights of
the United States will not suffer by the
temporary absence of its war ships. Both
vessels will be kept In readiness to return
to Bluefelds at the first symptoms of fresh
trouble. The orders indicate that the Co.
lumbia will soon return to the United States
and that the Marblehead will remain in the
vicinity of the isthmus until relieved by
some other vessel.
