number of well known men about
town among them, and, taken as a
SWhoie, it was right jolly party on
ine way out. None of them seemed to
know where they were going, but they
mad been told they would see a good
hight, and that was enough. They
were willing to go as far as necessary.
Out through Edna Mills and several
miles beyond the vehicles pursued
their way until they finally came to
stop at farmhouse. Here the party
d1sembarked, and after a short walk
arrived at a rudely constructed ring,
rather smaller than the regulation
size. There was some delay at this
5uncture, owing to the fact that the
carriage in which the gloves had been
9sent out had taken a wrong road. but
the crowd was good-natured and kept
amused until it finally arrived.
Inc preliminary arrangements were
pr1ef and very much to the point. One

was plain that the white man was

friends were confident that he would
make up in skill what he lacked in
this respect.
From the first call Of time there was
no question as to the earnestness of
the contestants. They wanted that
money and each was determined to
win it. For a short time they SPARED
cautiously, but vigorously. Then they
became warmed up, and to the end of
the round it was bing-bang. The
colored mans weight appeared to give
MIN considerable advantage and his
opponent was forced to stand some
severe punishment. In the second
round the white man went to the
ground several times to avoid the
rushes of his Gark-skinned opponent
and was warned by the referee. He
also claimed that he had been bitten.

BLACKBURN is ALL RIGHT.
Pitched Winning Ball in Il Game
Full of Incidents

Minneapolis won handily on the Min
nehaha grounds.
AT last it doth appear that Mime
apolls has pitcher who may be called
good average man, who can pitch a
pretty good ball without falling down
at critical moments. Blackburn, the
new man, pitched a steady game yes
terday. The visitors from Terre Haute
could do nothing with him but six scat
tered hits until the last inning, when
the locals were far enough ahead for
him to do a little experimenting. 1t
was good pitching, apd the locals won.
At the opening of the game the runs
were made prettily, for they had to
be piled up one at a time, but of the
TOUR only two were earned, for the
visitors were a trifle off in fielding.
1t will pay to look at their assist col
umn, to see how peculiar the game
was. In the third the visitors tied
the score for once, and made a little
excitement on Werrick's error and hits
by Giiks and Weddige They couldn't
score again, however, for the locals
held them down, and they only had a
few men on bases up to the last. 1t
was too easy to be exciting.
In the sixth the visitors tried to ex-
ecute the throw to the plate, on HUI
lens steal to second, to head off Fra
ser, when Conner, who was only a
few feet away, threw the ball in the
back of Hughey's head. The sturdy
pitcher went to the ground, and
stretched out as if his neck was broken.
a pail Of water and a. piece of ice, with
some old rye, brought him to, but he
was not able to play again, and a
lump the size of a cocoanut began to
swell upon his head. Several of Man
ager Longs men are i'll, and so he
had no one in uniform to play while
Nops pitched out the game. A young
man named Oxen volunteered, and
when ne put on the sweater Wilson
played the game under protest, be-
cause he had ten men In uniform on
the bench. In order to get even MI.
Long protested the game because the
packstop was under ninety feet, when
the field was plenty large enough for
the regulation distance, and the club
had not received permission to have
it so. 1t may be said. too, that the
plate should be put away ninety feet.
so that occasionally the local cranks
may see a game played on a regula-
ton ground. 1t would make a better
the public the advantage of seeing
some of that pretty work behind the
bat.
Page, the young amateur, did quite
well, though he is but boy He made
a hit and caught a high fly neatly.
There We're some very pretty individ-
ual plays by Strauss, Werden, Kuehne
! and Fraser, and the base. cunning was
spirited, especially that by LalIy and
Fraser. Carney made a pretty play
for the visitors, and Gilks made some
pretty catches. The little lesson given
kuehne has apparently done him good.
He went after the ball yesterday, and
If he keeps up his gait he will be all
right st the third. Joe Werrick was
a tlif1e off in the field, but he redeemed
himself by his other work There was
good attendance, and the audience
was intent chiefly on watching the
work of the new pitcher, who made a
hit with the public.
The tabulated victory follows:

WICHITA, Kan, July %. This
city was thrown into excitement to-

Mabel Worth, young lady living
here, was none other than Ollie Ger
main, who w:s kidnapped fifteen
years ago, supposedly by gypsies,
from her parents at Browns Val

Her disappearance has been a mys-
terry in that section of the state, and
it has been woven into scores of
romantic stories.
ABBOT two weeks ago a lady from
Browns Valley, while visiting here,
met Mabel Worth, and her resem-
blance to the missing child's mother
was so striking that she began an
investigation. Mrs. Worth became
alarmed, and with Mabel left the
city and has not been seen since.
The police are looking into the mat

to have died of grief after Ollie's
disappearance, and Mrs. Germain

DESTRUCTION IN THREE STATES
Cyclone and Lightning Do Great
Damage.

CAIRO, ILL.,, July 2S.-Reports just
received state that Saturday afternoon
a cyclone swept over the village of
Three States, situated on the Missis-
sippi river, forty-five miles south Of
here, on the Missouri side. Lightning
struck shanty boat tied at the bank,
killing the owner, George McClelland,
and wife, and fatally injuring their
three children, who are since reported
to have died. Their home was said to
be Kenosha, Wis. At Barnes Ridge,
three miles west of Three States,
lightning struck a farm house, killing
man and wife named Thomas
The wind came from a western di-
rection, and with such force that it
blew down a huge smokestack at the
Three States Milling company's mill.
Fortuna tely, the chimney fell length
wise with the building, doing no dam
age. The cyclone literally cut a
swath through the woods about 100
yards wide, uprooting trees and in
some instances carrying them consid-
cradle distances.

The Hyde Park Clubs Team, Re-
cent Winners of the Hamilton


Chicago is the fortunate possessor
of the champion whist club of the
United States. When the annual tour
nament of the American Whist league
was held not long ago in Minneapolis,
the Hyde Park Whist club, of Chicago,
sent John T. Mitchell, R. M. Rogers
Jr., W. J. Walker and r. L. Parsons
to contest for the Hamilton club tro-
ply, the magnificent cup that has for
a number of years represented the
whist championship of the United
States. The Chicagoans were not
looked upon as dangerous by number
of other ambitious teams, and no one
seemed to believe that they could hold
their own against the strongest aggre-
cation of whist players ever assembled
in the United States.
However, as the games progressed
it became evident that Chicago was to
be an important factor in the results
After five days Of uninterrupted play
ing the Hyde Park team was declared
the winner, not having been defeated
in a. single game. The successful play

all-around player and a splendid man
in team work. Shrewd in Judgment
and always on the alert to profit by
his adversarieS' errors, he makes a
most formidable antagonist at the
whist table. The cup is a handsome
specimen of the silversmith's art. 1t
stands little over eighteen inches
high, and is valued at $1,000. 1t was

REVOLT IN K. OIL,
ID. A. No. 30 Sustained by Other
Assemblies in the District.

BOSTON, Mass, July 2S.-The mem
bers of d. A. 80, K. Of L., the once
famous banner district of the order,
are in open revolt against the general
executive board. The recent suspen-
sion of the district by the general
executive board for reinstating Martin
j. Padder, who, it is claimed by D. A.
30, was suspended by the latter body
on account of having preferred charges
against M. j. Bishop, the general wor-
thy foreman of the order, was referred
to the local assembly for action at
a meeting held today. Twenty out of
twenty-one local assemblies attached
to the district Endorsed the action of
ID. A. 80 in reinstating Mr.. Padder,
and voted to stand by the reinstate-
ment. The action and tone of the
meeting are taken as evidence that
the locals in the state will no longer
recognize the general executive board.
