These recommendations had been submit
ted TO the secretaries and members Of
the board. Chairman Kane explained. and
had been heartily endorsed by them.
Many home missionaries rose In the
assembly during the debate and appealed
TO the body not to disturb the board by
controversies over It's administration. They
declared that the great burden OF harm
resulting would fall on them. One west
ern preacher. who said he was support
ing n large family. on 500 a year. asked
the assembly to direct the secretaries to
cut down their own salaries and ex-
penses. His words were greeted with
ioud applause. which continued for more
than a minute The recommendations
were adopted without division.

DISEASED MILK AND MEAT.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:

the Mayors remarks about an inspector
being appointed for milk and meat, and

no idea OF the amount Of flesh of animals
which have died or been killed be-
cause OF disease, or haye been sent
TO market TO be sold to save the loss
to the stock-raiser Not only this, but
numbers are sent that have been given
large quantities OF drugs some OF these
being perhaps OF a poisonous nature.
Butchers could tell some startling sto-
ries with regard 10 diseased meat IL
they cared TO do so. and after The carcass
has been dressed by an expert II is hard
for an ordinary person TO detect any
thing wrong, and Il can only be done
by a competent veterinary surgeon. All
slaughter-houses. cattle-pens. and stores
where meat Is sold should be rigidly in
spected, as is done in the large cities.

stantly by the inspectors In our northern

The Game Between Petersburg and
Norfolk.

NORFOLK, VA, May 26.-(Special)-
The game between Petersburg and Nor
folk this evening was called in the last
half of the fifth inning, with the Farmers
at the bat, on account of rain. Early in
the game signs of storm began to APP
pear in the sky. and some playing for rain
was INDUCED in. The wind that preceded
the rainfall raised great clouds of dust on
the field, and it was with difficulty that
the game proceeded. Schmidt pitched the
first three innings for Petersburg, and
was succeeded by Kitson, Corbett doing
the twirling for the locals. The game was
not an interesting one by any means, the
score standing, when the game was call
ed. u to 4 in favor Of Norfolk. The fol-

Roanoke won IN beautifully-played
game this afternoon. which lasted ten
innings, with Kimball in the box, a
pitcher who has had but little chance thus
far He did great work, and for the
ten innings not a Portsmouth man could
cross the rubber. In no inning was he
touched for more than one hit, and, after
the sixth, with the exception Of one base
on balls In the eighth, the visitors were
retired in one-two-three order. only three
times did they have anything resembling
a chance TO score. In the third inning,
after Heilman's fly TO Grove, Lampe
cracked out double. but Wrigley cap
tured a hot one from Marr's bat and
threw him out at third. Pat. Rollins
kicked against this decision by Moss. a
local substitute umpire. though it was
the only close one against the visitors.
In the fourth Burke, after Rollins was
out, sent the sphere to centre for two
bases. advancing to third on McGhees
out at first, and Kimball retired the
side by striking out Hargrove. In the
fifth Hall gave Grove a chance. which he
accepted. and Heilman hit safely. and
was clearly caught trying TO steal Sc
cond, but Moss called him safe. After
that only two men reached first base. In
the second inning the locals had the bases
full. with Kimball at the bat; but he
retired the side with an easy one to Nc
Chez. In the fourth Grove reached third
on a single. and tumble by Hargrove,
after two men were out; but Keefer failed
TO make the requisite hit. In the
tenth Keefer led by hit. but was caught
trying to steal second. and Whitehill
died at first on an easy ball TO Burke.
Kimball was hit by pitched bah, and
Cockman sent the ball TO left-field fence
for two bases, Kimball scoring on Wrig-
