quaur1es ne maze III the engagement
The naval militia of the country is
Fastening to extend its aid to the gov
ernment. Commander Emerson of the
Maryland naval militia came to the
navy department and informed Lieu
tenant Gibbons that ne had gathered
another battalion Of 1870 meh which
would be ready soon for active service
COMMUNICATIVE of the Rhode Island
naval militia was also visitor at the
department, aud explained that he had
200 men ready for mobilization. Com
mander Norton of the North Carolina
naval militia called personally ana sue
ceeded in having the department change
its order, made in the case of the mont
tor Nantucket, so as to allow the North
Carolina militia instead of the militia Of
South Carolina to take that monitor
from Wilmington to Port Royal
-Four flags were displayed for the first
time in many months from the stats Of
the state, war and navy department
building and on the east front a huge
garrison flag fioated, all in honor of the
victory of the American feet at Manila.
Although the British colonial Office
had been fully advised of the American
success from Manila, the authorities
in London did not communicate with
the British embassy here, nor did the
foreign offices at Paris, Berlin or other
capitals notify their representatives
here. This is taken to indicate that the
foreign offices will not communicate
events of strictly military character,
and also that the American occupation
Of tn Philippines has not yet assumed
political aspect at foreign centers.
The Spanish reverse at Manila seri-
ously depletes the Spanish navy at a
tune when it is most in need of ships.
With the burning OF the two CRUISERS,
Reina Christina and the Castillo,
Spain has lost two of her best second
rate cruisers. The cruiser Castillo was
slightly larger than the Reina Chris
tina The Don Juan du Austria, which
was blown up, was another good craft
of the gunboat typ. Aside from the
crippling of the punish naval strength,
the burning up and the blowing up of
the ships specified, entails an actual
money loss running into the millions.
1t turns out that while Japan has
given notice she will declare neutrality
a decree of neutrality is not yet actually
issued, so that Yokohama and other adj
vantageous rorts of Japan continue to
be open L. t.,c American feet: This is

an evidence Of the friendly disposition
Of Japan tose r the United States. 1t

VICTORY.
OF course the Waynesburg boys
were taken into camp.

They were Rt4,r in the game from the
Start-They should not have scored at
all but the grounds are Responsible.
While we are getting Nineteen runs
they manage to get two-Team is all
right and will walIop W. Z. r. next
saturday-W- and j. will nerv-
Gus prostration when they hear the
News No game with them this year.
We are too good for them.
The Wayesburg boys were taken
into camp by the local students on
Saturday in way which was graf
flying. OF course everyone expected
the home team to win but they did
not expect the wholesale slaughter
that was seen Waynesburg had
made a most creditable showing
against W. and J. and other good
teams in Pennsylvania and it was
expected that they would be at least
common amusement for the boys.
The simple facts in the case were
that they were out batted, out field
ed and out played at every stage OF
the game. The fact that they made
two runs after being so thoroughly
licked was the fault of the rough
grounds more than anything else.
But for a few errors by our boys the
score card would have been clean as
far as any Waynesburg scores are
concerned.
The game shows that the team is
everything that has been claimed for
it. 1t should lose very few games
this year and should make the best
record of any team ever turned out
by the University.
Jewellers home run was a feature
of the game. In consequence of this
feat he received the box of Alpha
tobies offered by the Athens cigar
company, d pair of trousers from
ALI. X. Smith the tailor, Universe
ty pin from g. G. Hayes d Co., and
fine cane from J. R Miller, tobac-
conist.
The score nineteen to two shows
that the boys know how to pile up
runs. They could have made more
had there been any necessity but
they took pity on the visitors and
kept the number down. w. u. p.
will be here next Saturday and they
will get the same dose in smaller
quantity perhaps but they will get
it all right. Doggie Trenchard will
be here with them but he cannot
play as he is not student.
The University team lined up as fol-
lows: Pratt, catcher; Lowe, Pitcher;
Anderson, first; Schad second; Nc
Whorter, third; Whaley, short; Lew
ellen, left; Laughed, center, and right
Mitchell and Shelby.
The Waynesburg line up and bat
ting order is: Nicholson, left; More
dock, second; Scott, short; Shriver,
catcher; Jordan, right; Purman, first;
Dulaney, center; Barb, third. and
Grouse, pitcher.
Umpires: For w. V. o., Shanks;

New WILMINGTON, April 30-The
proposition from Washington and
Jefferson College looking toward d
union of the athletic interests of the
colleges of Western Pennsylvania,
Ohio and West Virginia has stirred
up considerable interest among the
athletes of Westminster College, and
there is no doubt but that such q
union will be favored by the College
Athletic Association.
1t is not believed that the proposed
arrangements could be perfected be-
fore next fall, but there is no doubt
that the Westminster men are fully
as anxious for wider field as the
men of the other colleges mentioned
The proposal is to form a new league
to be made up of Waynesburg, &C.

Bethany be brought into the new
league, and Westminster favors il
also.
There are many people who think
that the proposed union will never
be successful, for the notion of it is
being founded on personal differ
ences resulting from present organi-
cations.

of their being sighted off certain To-
calities, which create much excite
ment, especially on the part Of New
port, Boston, Charleston and ther

A NEW BUILDING.
Another -Four Story Building to
be Erected on Peasants
Streets.

Drs. Brock, Courtney and White have
the building feyer-The Block will be
very Fine cne-lt will be forty feet
by eighty and will run back from the
Street to the Alley in the rear-Build-
ing TO be Fire Proof, Of Steel and
Brick-It Will have handsome front.
Jacobs will begin on the plan at
once and the block will be done this
summer.
Drs. Brock, Courtney and White
seem to have caught the building fever
as far as four story buildings are con-
cerned, very hard. They have given
architect Elmer Jacobs instructions
TO draw up plans for another four
story building. These plans will be
begun as soon as the plans on the
postofiice building are out Of the way.
The new building is to be one of the
finest II not the finest in town. 1t
will be forty feet front by eighty back,
facing on Peasants street and running
back to the alley in the rear of the
lot.
1t is to be hreproof throughout, of
structural steel and brick. The front
will be of stone and pressed brick.
The first floor will be business rooms
and the upper floors will be offices.
There is demand for such buildings
here and the gentlemen who are be-
hind this plan feel no doubt that they
will have it full from the very start,
The intention is to have 1t COM
pleted this summer, and it will be
done then If possible. Work will be-
gin on it as soon as the plans can be
drawn and the contract let. This is
to be the second four-story building in
the town and will add very much to
the appearance of the street on which
it is to be placed.
Five feet will be left between it and
the postoffice building and ingress will
be had for the employees of the latter
along this alley way. The mails
will be taken to the postoffice through
the alley which runs up past the
Methodist church.

Mr.. George P. Blessing, Of this city,
has received a letter from prisoner
confined in a Spanish fort near Val

He claims that he has large sum OF
money hidden near Martinsburg, and
wants Mr.. Blessings aid in securing
it.-Martinsburg Independent.
Henry Mcqueen the jovial ex-sheriff
of Nicholas county, received more

the same epistolary fraud. telling OF
great hidden treasure near Summers

loan to forward description of the
diagram of the exact location where
it was buried, explaining that this
small sum was needed TO secure re-
possession of a trunk containing the

debt after the illegal incarceration Of
the writer. Mcqueen declined to
