If LII Hung Chang had come to Roa-
noke before the war between China and
japan broke out the probabilities are
that he would not have lost his yellow
jacket. 1t Is stated that the emperor
degraded him because he did not take
proper steps to prepare the Flowery
Kingdom for the impending struggle.
Had he seen the Roanoke ball team
play q game or two he would have en-.
gagged them on the spot and transported
them across the seas. If they could
fight Japanese as we'll as they can play
Chinese bali the war would now be
ended.
The exhibition the home team gave
yesterday of "pig-tsil" ball was first
class. but of ball playing. as laid down
in the book, 1t was about as miserable
as it could we'll be.
Notwithstanding this, they won and
two men were responsible for the vic
tory They were Fitzmorris and Mace,
the opposing pitchers. The former
pitched gilt edged game and only in
the fourth inning did he allow his oppo
nents to bunch their hits.
in the first half Of the inning. While
at the bat he was struck directly over
the heart by swiftly pitched ball and
for few moments he was dead to the
world and every one in it.
When no went IN to pitch the last half
OF this inning he was still groggy and

to retire the side and not accepted ne

and triple, which, together with
base on balls, previous two base hit
and Truby's error, gave tho visitors
five runs and an apparently safe iead
Fitzmorris pulled himself together
after this. however, and allowed but
three little singles to be made off OF him
in the remaining five innings.
Mace pitched coed game up to the
seventh, when he weakened and tho
homo team hit him at will. In the
eighth they found him for five hits,
one Of them being three Dagger
Ellis did not show up at the grounds
and Boyd covered second While he is
credited with three errors, two wild
throws and a passed ball, he put life
into his work and tried to infuse some
ginger int the other members OF the

his hands.

health will show what he can do
Hodge also seemed to hsve caught the
fever, and umpired strictly Ohinese
game His ideas of balls and strikes
were quite ludicrous, and both sides
suffered. His base decisions were purely
American, and, consequently. were all
right.

II is Estimated That His Majority VIII be
Close to 10000.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 7.-Nearly
every county turns up with heavy loss
for Kolb as compared with his vote of
1892. For instance, Madison county in
1892 went for Kolb by 29S. Official re-
turns give it to Oates by ,443, o change
of over LOO votes. Lawrence, another
valley county, goes for Kolb by only
l25 as against 2, 1875 before. Limestone
goes for Kolb by only 1853 as against
1,623 in 1892. Tallapoosa goes for Kolb
by only GOO as against 2,449 in 1892
In Cherokee his majority falls off 800.
Crenshaw went for Kolb IT'S in 1892.
This year it is very close. Bibb affords
the same comparison. Sumpter goes
for Oates by over 1900, q Democratic
gain of over 1000, and Macon for Oates
by 500, Democratic gain of over /. 500.
Henry, Oates own county, went for
Kolb in 1892 by ever 1900; this yes-
over 500 for Oates.
The smaller counties go the same
way in less degree. Oates majority
will be close TO 10000. No one places
it under $4,000. Legislative returns
indicate a safe Democratic majority,
even without Jefferson's delegation of
six, though the prospects are that jeff
erson has gone Democratic.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 7.-Complete
unofficial, but reliable returns from
every county in the State except two
make the Democratic majority 26,l24.
These two counties are Baldwin and
Covington, both small counties which
cannot possibly change the foregoing
result more than few hundred
The Democrats have at least 22 mem-
bers of the Senate out of 33 and 81 NOM
