ging match from start to finish, Paw
Paws work with the stick being charac-
terized by remarkably hard hitting,
while the visitors were unfortunate in
putting the ball into very unsafe quar-
ters.
Showerman carried off batting hon
ors, making total of ten bases-a
homer, two doubles and two singles
in five times at bat, and Aliens one hit
was pretty home run. But one of the
visitors hit Thurman for more than one
base, Hayle getting double.
Both teams played even ball, except
that Paw Paw went to pieces in the
fourth inning, letting the visitors score
four unearned runs. The first man to
bat sent an easy line hit to Paige, which
he very gracefully dropped to the
ground. The next man hit a slow
grounder to Hoover, which he fielded
nicely and then threw away over the
first baseman's head. The next hit was
a hot grounder to +. Cross, which he
fumbled Thus, after the side should
have been out, with the aid of base
on balls and another error, four runs
were scored. Then Paw Paw settled
down to play ball and won the game
with the stick.
Not a single wrangle or dispute
marred the game. The Northerner is
pleased at the wisdom of the manage
ment in sending out of town for an un-
biased umpire. Following is the score:

We are not at all surprised at this,
feeling sure that it counted upon the
aid Of this country in giving its ultima
tum TO the great power.
1t would be well FOR the Haitiens to
understand that prejudice in this coun
try is of such character as to make it
well-nigh impossible for any of our
sister republics TO count upon any ef-
fort on the part of our government TO
protect them from injury,
Venezuela is the only exception to
this rule aud it is hardly probable that
any other precedent will be establish

THE GRAND COMMANDERS PRE-
DIOAMENT.

THE Investigating Committee of the
Grand Camp Of the Confederate Vet
Grams convened by Grand Commander
J. N. STUBBs has made it's report, and
in communicating its decision to the
aforesaid Grand Commander as to the
criminal who has been in league as the
paid official of the American Book
Company, has said. "Thou art the
manP' This is indeed q sensational
conclusion Of a most remarkable af
fair.
Col STUBS has apparently been fore
most in the demand for fair and i'm
partial history to be used as a text
book in the public schools of Virginia
and so far as the public is concerned
was above suspicion.
The fight is nothing more nor less
than the contention of two or more
book trusts, designated as companies,
and it seems that the American Book
Company has controlled not only Vir-
ginis, but many other states.
The committee recommended that
Col. STUBS be removed from the His
tory Committee and sign his posi-
ton as Grand Commander.
The most sensational part of the
proceedings was the production by the
prosecution of two checks, of 5000 and
$50 respectively, drawn 10 1894 by ]. W
WoMAcK, agent of the American Book
Company. in favor of J. N. STUBBs. Al
the time the latter was unable to ex-
plain to the committee anything about
them, and was a dumbfounded wit
ness on the stand. He was permitted
to retire ana think over the matter
until next morning, when he explained
that they were drawn in payment OF
gambling debts over a game of poker
In this, he was afterwards corrobor-
ated by Mr.. WoMAcK himself, who
charged that the checks in question
had been stolen from him.
Col. STUBS refuses to accept the con-
illusions Of the Investigating Commit
tee. He declines to resign his position
or retire from the History Committee.
