Make another red mark in the score
book. Richmond has won another game
from Norfolk In the easiest manner
possible the Bindings captured victory
from the Brooms yesterday. and caused
the 800 and more cranks who witnessed
the game to bubble over with JOY and
enthusiasm.
Timely hitting won the game. and 1t
was not until the sixth inning that the
smuggling commenced. Prior to that time
Pfanmiller. who tossed for Norfolk. was
invincible. and try as they would, the
locals could DO nothing with his delivery.
In the mean time the Brooms had batted
stlmmen rather lively, and with errors
and wild pitching to assist them, had
accumulated three runs. 1t looked dark
for the Blueblrds. and despair was writ
ten in great big letters on the face OF
every rooter Oh the grounds.
SCHMIDT WAS INVINCIBLE.
Jake Wells felt rather downhearted, too;
he showed it, and in the fourth inning
he took stlmmen out of the box, substi-
tuting Schmidt, who puzzled the Norfolk
ians TO such an extent as TO preclude the
possibility OF their scoring run. AS
a matter Of fact, they never connected
with him. and didn't make a hit during
the six innings he pitched.
When Schmidt went in the game was
all against him. and u looked ike slauSn-
tering an innocent 10 put him in. but N
the sixth the aspect OF things changed
considerably Eoerfe'd and Eisey were
both hit by Pfanmiiier. and thereby given
the walk. but il was dollars TO doughnuts
that they would die on their bases. as
Hargrove and Sholta, who followed them
10 the bat, few out 10 the inheld. Good
enough waS then given his base on balls
and Wells came 10 the saucer. He waited
for a ball that suited him. 1t came II
due time. and Jake smashed II out into
right field for two bases. while Brownie
and Elsey toddled home, "Goody' goin
10 third. The cranks howled with deligh
al this. and when Kain grasped the WI
low they shouted 10 him to initiate Jake
Barley did H. and sent the horsekidc sail
ing out into left field. the hit yielding
him two bases and scoring Goodcnor"'
and Wells, thereby putting Klchmone
IN the lead.
MORE RUNS NOT NEEDED.
Kahn never got past second. as Foster
went out on a SLOW inheld stab. and re-
tired the side The Browns tried hard
10 overcome this lead but could do moth
ing with Schmidt. and when in the eighth
Richmond scored three more runs. the
victory was cinched and Billy smith
realized that he was done for.

Collins, an account Of whose untimely
death appeared IN your issue OF to-day.
shot himself and was not killed by his
brother, as stated. The boys were sent
to the woods by their father and took
along with them shotgun and pistol.
They ran a rabbit into a hollow sog and
tried for some time to dislodge II. but on
failing started to their work. Edward
was some thirty steps In advance OF
Robert. who had the pistol and upon
hearing a report from II turned TO ind
that his brother had shot himself. Ed
ward ran for help, and In the excitement
was understood to say that he had shot
his brother.
Candidates are beginning TO move
around briskly No nominations bavo
been made by either party, and the race
will be free TO ALL and politics WIN not
enter into the canvass. From present
indications the vote here will be largely
against the constitutional convention.
