Won the Second Game.

The second game was not so badly
played. though IL was naturally not near
50 interesting as II might have been, for
the first contest had taken all the life
cut of the players and all the loyalty and
pleasure out of the crowd.
Sparks went i'm TO pitch for Richmond
and Ames for Hartford. Both lid good
work in the box. and Sparks had the bet
ter of the argument. Both men were
given good support, too--that Is. with
one exception. Lutenburg had his off
day, and made three miserable errors
These were largely attributable TO the
sun shining In his eyes. but ne ought
not to have made them. Aside from this.
Sparks could not complain OF his support.
and Ames had no cause whatever for
registering kick.
SEE-SAW IT WENT.
The Hartford lads started off deter
mined 10 make two victories. and they
went about IL like troopers, too. They
took the lead i'm thS> first inning ana
maintained il until the fourth. when Rich
mond made two. II was the work of
a short while. however. for Hartford TO
forge once<more TO the front, and there
she stayed, with one run to her credit.
until In the eighth, when two men were
out Shannon walked 20 first I.utenburo
followed him at the bat, and as il 10
atone for the errors he had made he
drove the ball afar over centre garden
for three bags and scored Shannon. Soy
bold was next up. and made neat dou-
Bile. which scored Lutenburg and mn
Richmond one in the lead. There she
stayed, too, for in the ninth Hat erd
was unable TO score and the game ended

THE STATE GOVERNMENT.

On July !, 1898, there was $164,831 Of
delinquent State taxes.
There was $412,151 in the State treas
ury June &c. Republicans think that this
amount Is so small that deficit will oc-
cur.
OF the S632 900 of State bonds now out
standing $598,00O are owned by the State.
The outstanding $25,000, which is held
by private parties, comes due January l.,
1899.
Four Representative districts will
have to file certificates of nomination
with the Secretary of State. They are
districts which are now composed Of
more than one county. These districts
are Stevens and Morton, Grant and Stan
ton, Meade and Seward and Gray and
Haskell.
It is recommended that the school fund
commissioners be authorized to pur-
chase State warrants as we'll as bonds.
In that case the per cent. interest which
these warrants draw would go into the
school fund instead of the pockets Of
private parties when any State fund was
exhausted.
Last years deficit in the general fund
in the State treasury was really profit
able to the State. If the $4,000 bonds
which had been ordered paid out Of that
fund had been refunded it would have
been for five years. The interest would
have been $4,000. The interest on
warrants stamped mot paid for want Of
funds" was only $1,55z23.
Webb McNall has a letter from a
prominent Kansas Republican in which
he says that although he don't know
him and never saw him he will give him
the use of his opera house free if he will
make a speech in his town this year,
He frankly admits that the reason why
he feels this way is that McNalps
wrecking of the Clarkson rate bureau
saved him $2S on his insurance on the
aforesaid opera house this year.
