Defeated again The Grove City College
takes the University Boys into
Camp to the tune of IL to 3.

The base ball team met the second
defeat yesterday at the hands of
Grove City college on the grounds of
the latter. This time however they
made much better showing than
they did at Westminster. They got
three runs while their opponets made
eleven. The boys probably played
good ball as they can do that and
the defeat was due to the fact that
the other team was composed of bet
ter men. To-day the last game of the
series will be played with Braddock
and the team will be home Sunday.
We hope they will have better luck
to-day.

HE HAD PAINTED.
And the Conductor thought that
he was dead.

Kemp acted In good faith In telegraph
ing that VIII Wilmington was dead
but he recovered from the illness aud
is at home and well-A Crowd nj the
depot to see his body return--Every
one is relieved to find that he is still
In the land of the living He Is one
of the few men who get to read their
own obituaries.
Will Wilmington is alive and is
at home This is one of the great.
est surprises that the town has ever
known and it is one OF the most
pleasant that it has ever exper-
fenced
The news of the telegram an
nouncing his death spread rapidly
and when the evening train came in,
there was large crowd down at the
depot to escort their friend home.
Their surprise may be imagined
when he got of the train alive. His
partner Max Waters was so over
joyed that he wept for JOY and many
others were deeply moved.
The mistake made was most
natural one and was made by the
conductor on Wills train. When
Will left Chicago he was not feeling
well and shortly after that he faint
ed. Arriving at Plymouth, Indiana,
the conductor got off and sent the
telegram here announcing the death
as he supposed Will had died. Be
fore he revived the conductors had
been changed and the first one does
not know yet but that he died. The
second man aud Will himself did not
know the message had been sent
home and he came on here in ignor
ance of what had been happening.
When he saw the people and they
acted as they did he was alarmed
but Rev A. NJ. Buchanan soon re-
assured him and told what had hap
pened.
All day yesterday the friends OF
Wilmington had been telegraphing
and had been able to get not single
response and this increased their
anxiety. OF course the mayor of
the town from which the telegram
was sent knew nothing about the
matter and the conductor could not
be located. Consequently no denial
or affirmation of the first message
could be obtained.
Everyone is very much pleased to
find that their fears were groundless
and that the young man has been
spared for time longer. He is very
well liked by everyone and his death
would have been felt as personal
loss by hundreds of people. He is
not well yet but we hope that in
very short time he will be complete
ly restored to health again.

The cadet corps is considering the
matter OF going to Grafton on Deco

cordially invited by the people there
and are assured of delightful

the expense that they will have to
stand as the people who have the
matter in charge will pay all the
rest Of the expenses.
Those of the cadets who have ia
ken trips are anxious to 90 and
the rest are expected to come round
all right when the time comes. A
large majority of the corps voted to

stood on the subject. 1t was thought
that they would stay here on that
day and the announcement was made
that they had accepted the invita-
ton of the local committee to take

Ball Only Speculation. Due to

WASHINGTON, Pa, May 13.-The
drawing of soldiers from Washington
and Jefferson college will probably
finally break up the base ball team,
and, if the war is not finished by fall,
there will be no foot ball team either.
Since the makeup of the base ball
team was announced Manager Ed
wards, Capt. Nesbit, Pitcher Nesbit
and Short Stop Ficher have been cal
led away, and last Monday Gamble
left. Pitcher Rodgers will also leave
soon to join corps of engineers.
The team will probably have to be
disbanded, but this will not be done
unless its is shown fair aggregation
cannot be maintained. The team
leaves to-day on trip through Ohio
to play Dennison, Otterbein and Ohio
Wesleyan, and the success Of this
trip will probably determine the life
of the team in the absence of Capt.
Nesbit. The only pitchers left are
Kerns and Carson.

CHILD CHARGED WITH ARSON
Little Colored Girl Who Started Big
Bonfire

Maud Reed, diminutive colored girl, !;
years of age. was before Justice Morrison
yesterday afternoon on the felony charge
or attempting to commit arson. The child
knew nothing of the seriousness of such
a charge, and was badly frightened when
she was brought into court. She had been
arrested In Boyle Heights for starting a
hre which almost destroyed the residence
or Julia Douglas, colored. The girl. while
playing near her home, found Il pile OF
brush against a fence and near Mrs. Doug
las residence, and set fire to it. The fire
soon became larger than she had expected
and she ran for assistance. Several mer
happened to be passing, and they extin-
guished the blaze before any serious dam
age was done. The girl was arrested ant
taken to the police station. Deputy Dis.
trict Attorney Chambers stated to the
court that there was so little in the case
that he did not wish to prosecute it, but
suggested that it be investigated by the
police. The child was released without
bail and was told to come back next Sat.
urday. at which time the case will prob
ably be dismissed
