SEASON OPENED.
w. U. P. falls before the local
lads on the diamond.

Game was slow at some stages-S0me
tall scoring done by the visitors in
one inning-Ten scores rolled up by
the Varsity showing for first
game who made the best plays
Line up-Another contest in pro
gress.
The baseball season was opened
very auspieiously on Saturday and
victory was pulled down by the 10
cal boys. They went on to the dia-
mond with the weakest team they
will have this year and defeated
W {. z. of Allegheny, without
much trouble. The score was ten to
five.
The game was slow one and the
crowd soon lost interest. However
1T was the first game and neither of
the teams had had any practice to
speak of and it was fairly creditable
in this lignt
A tolerably good crowd saw the
game but they did not warm up a
great deal over the plays. Some of
these were very good The hitting
at times was heavy but the balls fell
into the hands of the fielders and
the score does not show how often the
ball collided with the bats
Cooper did probably the best all
round playing for the University al
though Deming covered his field
well and batted above the average.
Hagerty played a great game and
was the life of the visitors. He
started the scoring in the only in
ming in which they made anything
by interfering with the bali twice on
his way around helped two other
men to get a start They came in
with the aid of these and several err
rors together with couple of hits.
At no stage of the game were
they dangerous and the game re-
suited in score Of ten to five in ia
yor Of the home team The batting
order was: W. e. F., Barclay Sd,
Mason ! f., Hagerty S., Cullers ID.
Earl lst., Burk r., Ficher G., Dephy
CT, Kalloc p, w. V. u, Anderson
LIST, McWhorter 3D., Dickey cf,
Cooper SIS, Printz p, Dent IT,, Shell
by c., Deming IF. Grassland I'd.
Umpire Shanks. Time of game
! two hours.
Another game was arranged for
this aftern Don and it is now in pro
gress on the University grounds.
The batting order will be the same
for both teams. Dent and Printz
will change places this afternoon

anticlinals here in West Virginia are
aot covered with drift as they are in
Indiana and Ohio and are in more
exact conformity to the great noun
tain folds on the east than they are
in Pennsylvania This part OF
the report is an important contrlba-
tion to the literature of the theoreti-
cal geology.
The oil and gas bearing strata OF
West Virginia are discussed and a
complete section is shown from the
top of the PERUVIAN down to the
Corbonlferous Limestone.
In this section the various rock
groups aggregate the astonishing
thickness of 1900 feet.
The occurrence OF oil and gas in
these various groups and the rock
pressure in the same is illustrated
bv detailed sections or logs from not
less than 103 wells.
These wells are distributed in the
Monongahela and Ohio Valleys from
Pittsburg to the Warfield district on
the Big Sandy river.
This alone makes this report per
haps the most valuable report that
has ever been issued by any state
upon the natural history of petrole-
um, for when the reports were made
upon this industry in Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana the development
in those states had not proceeded
nearly so far as it has in this state
On the whole DIR. White and the
Commission are to be congratulated
upon the appearance OF the first
volume of the work Of the survey
for considering the small amount of
money at their disposal the present
volume comes more like a present
than a work of the usual cost.
Along with the first volume also
appears the first map that the state
has ever issued. This was drawn
by Prof. r. L. Morris OF the Univer-
sity and shows the distribution OF
the coal fields of the state and the
present distribution Of oil and gas
wells.
Both the report and the map must
be of the greatest value to landown-
ers generally as their contents come
/ to be understood.
There are no funds available with
which to distribute them; but SC
long as they last those wishing them
may obtain volume l and the map
by sending II cents in postage to

ARRESTS ARE IN ORDER.-N. P.
Agent l.. E. Paskill informs us that
the railroad officials are somewhat
exercised for the safety of the young
boys who monkey about the tracks
near the depot and the chances are
that a wholesale slaughter will occur
some OF these days if they do not keep
off the right of way. Warning seems
to effect nothing. Yesterday fast
train was bombarded with stones that
flew like hail breaking the window on
the engine and severely cutting the
face OF the engineer. 1t is high time
for the parents to make a raid ON
these youngsters otherwise the town
will socn have hard reputation. The
N. P. superintendent states that if a
halt is not called arrests will be in or.
der and they will take up the matter
in the courts.
