GAME CAPTURED FROM INDIANAPO-
LIS BY THE "MILLERS."
Wild Throw by ROnt Gave M~inncapo-

ming Run-Score II to III.
.ecial to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nina. Aug. @.-Shar-
sig's team gave the "Millers'' an exciting
fight which the local club won in the ninth
mining by timely and much-needed hits.
Cross proved an enigma. and in the first
seven innings the "Mihers' made just five
hits off him. BY that time they were des-
perate and when, in the eighth. the vlsi-
tors made two runs, giving them a lead or
three, the local players became desperate.
They managed to tie by hitting Cross
three times. The ninth inning was a lively
one. With two of the indianapolis men on
bases and two men out Cross hit a ground
err to Hines at third. who let il get by. as
did Visner behind him. Mills scored, making
the odd run Burrell tied it. however. on
his own hit, Wilson's long drive and Wis
ner's grounder TO Roat, which the latter
threw wild to second. The next man flew
out and the side should have been out,
but Jack Crooks hit a long drive TO right
field and Wilson scored the winning run.
1t was one of the closest calls the local
team has had this season. Mccarthy. Hen
ry, Gray and Cross distinguished them
selves by home run during the game.
Henry made three hits for seven bases in
three times at bat. Score:

Wreck on the G. & T.. i.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Aug. %. - There
was a serious wreck near Hillsdale. on the
Chicago & Eastern Illinois, this morning,
and two engines, the mail and baggage
cars were badly wrecked. The Calumet &
Blue Island freight train pulled out of the
Norton Creek siding on the time of the
fast No. 3 Chicago & Evansville express.
The result was a terrific head-end collision.
Both engine crews jumped, as did also the
mail and baggage men. The two engines
were badly demolished. The engine tender
was driven almost into the mail car, and
the baggage car behind was also badly
damaged. The passengers were shaken up
in Il startling manner, but none injured.
The accident was due to a misunderstand-
ing. One of the engineers said this after
noon that the wreck was the worst he had
ever seen without injuring or killing any
one. The accident occurred at 4:40 o'clock
a. m. and the trains met on a straight
stretch of track. which fact gave the crew
Il chance TO eScaDe.

COLUMBUS. Ind, Aug. 29.-This city suf-
fered a heavy loss by fire this afternoon.
The flames were first discovered in the
large two-story brick livery stable of Shea
& Graham, in the central part of the city.
and by the time the fire department
reached the building it was enveIoped in
flames. In this building were thirty head
of horses. All were cut loose, but ten per-
ished. Fifty carriages and buggies were
burned. The stable was full of hay and in
it the fire department kept a part of its
hose. one reel, and ladders and all were
burned. This greatly crippled the fire de-
partment, which is a volunteer one. So hot
were the flames from this building that the
iremen could not reach it.
So heavy was the pressure from the wa
ter station that a section of hose burst at
a vital moment, and by the time a new
one was substituted the St. Dennis Hotel.
which adjoined the burning stable, was
on fire. The department being already
crippled, there was no way of reaching the
tall building, and the department was
forced TO fight the flames from the ground
at a great disadvantage. In one hours
time the third story of the building was in
ruins. and it was full two hours before
the fire was under control. Other buildings
were found to be on fire two squares away,
and IL became necessary for citizens to
line the housetops and aid the fire depart
ment in preventing further spreading of the
flames.
Fireman Walter Doup was overcome by
smoke and heat and fell unconscious. but
was carried to "A point of safety. So alarm
ing was the situation that assistance was
asked from seymour and Indianapolis. All
electric light wires were burned, and for a
time telegraph and telephone connection
with the outside world was cut off and cleo
trio street ira ffc STONED. At 52O O'Clock
the fire was under control. Losses esti-
mated as follows:
p. II. Mccormick. owner of st. Dennis
Hotel building. $4,000: +. T. Crump, $500;
Shea & Graham, $1,000; DR.. J. f. Wright,
5000; j. f.. Toohey. lessee st. Dennis Ho-
tel, $4,000; damage TO city property, $1,000.
There were many smaller losses. bringing
the total loss up 10 nearly 5000. The in
surance will about cover two-thirds of the
loss

A POLITICAL OUTRAGE
RETIRING DEMOCRATIC COUNCIL IN
A DESPERATE FIX.
Overrides All nmentn Law and
Then Creates a New Ward and
Elects Two New Members.
SpecTaI to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
PLYMOUTH, Ind, Aug. 29.-The Repub-
licans, at the city election last May, car
ried the city of Plymouth, electing their
entire ticket for the first time in the his
tory OF the city. Ever since that time the
Democratic leaders have been trying to de-
wise some plan to defeat the will of the peo-
pie. Mayor Drummond, Democrat. holds
office until the first Mondayi n September
and the Council has been a tie. Last Mon
day evening was the last meeting of the
Council at which Mayor could
preside. Suddenly, under thehead Of new
business. a Democratic councilman pre-
scented an ordinance creating a new ward
in the city. The Republicans were aston
ished, as a new ward was entirely unneces-
sary. Under the rules for the government
OF the Council no ordinance could be
passed until 1t had been read in two reg
ular meetings of the Council. except that
by a vote of two-thirds Of the Council a
rule might be suspended. Finding 1t i'm
possible to suspend the rules. a motion was
made 10 abolish all rules 60 King the
Council. The Democratic MEMBERS all
voted aye. and the Mayor gave his cast
ing vote, declaring that the rules were
abolished. The ordinance was then
eounciImen and the Mayor voted for it,
declaring IL carried. and then. by a resolu-
lOU, fNIllOul DdiiOl, luey III the same way
appointed two Democratic councllmen for
the new ward. The whole proceeding is
certainly illegal and an outrage on popular
government. There is much indignation on
account of the unheard-of proceedings, and
a majority of Democrats condemn the ac-
ton of their leaders. Ii is regarded simply
as a Dem ocratic scheme to cover corrup-
ton. 1t has opened the eyes of honest
Democrats throughout the county to what
may be expected if the people attempt TO
uncover the rottenness of more than thirty
years of Democratic rule in Marshall coun-
~ and honest Democrats will unite with
Republicans this fall in "A vote so emphatic
that it is hoped the county will be perma>
aently relieved from ring rule.

An Ohio Academy seventy Year. Old.

The State OF Ohio is full OF colleges and
universities. there being on the average
about one TO every two counties. But. OF
the preparatory boarding schools. conducted
apart from the college and giving super
vision OF health. habits and manners as
well as instruction in studies, there are
very few west OF the Alleghenies. Kenyon
Military Academy at Gambler. o.. heads
the list. having completed last June its
SEVENTEEN year, with an enrolment OF a
hundred boys. This is a great age for an
Ohio institution of this sort. and IL will
always have the distinction OF being The
first i'm the field. Under the management
OF Messrs. Rust and Hills. Regents. during
the last ten years, ii has been wonderfully
successful. Thorough instruction by SUI
perior masters. combined with firm and
careful discipline, have won the confidence
of the public. not In Ohio only. but In many
other States. the attendance in one year
often being from sixteen States. As the
country grows older there will be an in
c~reasing appreciation OF schools of this
class. as there Is I'm the Eastern States.
No better argument in their favor has
come 10 our notice than one written by
the Rector of Kenyon Military Academy,
Lawrence Rust, Ii. D., entitled How and
Where Shall We Educate Our Sons?" 1t
Is a consideration OF some of the mistakes
frequently made by parents in the educa-
ton OF their children. and Is so suggestive
and convincing as 10 make one wish he had
half a dozen boys 10 send 10 good prepara-
tory boarding schools.

the old William N. Evans frame residence
