A New Cincinnati Road,

Jackson, o., Feb. 4.-The long-pro-
posed Cincinnati, Hillsboro and Jack
son railroad will be built. IGs con-
struot.on at some period not far dis
tant to the future is an assured fact.
The route of the proposed road lies in
the counties of ike, jackson, High
land. Brown, Clermont, and Hamilton.
Starting at jackson, the line dips in a
southwesterly direction Ito the village
OF Flat, in Pike county; then going
northwest II intersects the line of the
Norfolk and Western ral1road a. Pike
ton, and crosses the Scioto river at
Jasper, three miles further west; then
the road runs almost .Irectly west to
Sinking Springs in Highland county.
Here the line makes a decided sweep
to the northwest and strikes Hills
borO, thence running again almost di-
rectly west ward across the west half of
Highland the upper part of Clermont
county, to Milford in hamilton county.
From Milford the tracks of the Pan
handle will be used for a while or un-
til the new company can obtain track
privileges of its own into Cincinnati.
Hon. Milton McKeehan, of Hillsboro,
H., is president of the company, Moses
Morgan, prominent coal operator, is
vice-president, and Captain Cole Gill
lilan, of Sinking Springs, o., is the
treasurer and secretary. The company
has Just sent Hon. ]. W.Jones, an ex-
pert railroad, promoted of Gallipolls,
O., over the road, and his report is
very enthusiastic. At present the dis
tance from this city to Cincinnati by
way of Baltimore and Ohio Southwest
ern is a fraction over 140 miles, The
short line would reduce the distance to
112 miles. The distance from this city
to Hillsboro over the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern, the only route, is
120 miles. By the new route, the dis
tance would only be &C miles. Two
complete surveys have been made over
the entire route. Over 80 per cent. OF
the right of way is owned by the COM
pany at present. Over 100000 worth
of work has already been done on the
road

ony born both in Ohio, but in the
same county, Both served apprentice
ships as pedagogues in early life and
both finally entered the legal profess
sion. Both went TO Indianapolis to To-
cate. when the time came to make a
selection in which place they would
cast their lots. Not only are both men
members OF the Methodist Episcopal

that his mind was derranged. After
Fosters death he again proposed to
the widow, it is said, but again was re-

Collecting His Wits,

Tne Chicago travelling man told a
good story on the editor of one OF Chi
cago's big dailies. One day last week
the editor was hard at work on an
editorial on Expansion. His ideas
became greatly confused and try as me
would he could not get the leader
shaped to suit him. His mind appear
ed to be clogged, but just as he was
about to give it up as bad job a
thought struck him. His eyes spark
led and his lips moved in a smile
Turning to an assistant, he inquired,
What are the funny editors doing
this afternoon?"
Shaping up matter for the Sunday
supphment."
Send 'em in here at once"
"All four of them?"
Yes, bring them all in"
When the quartet of alleged humor-
lists filled into the office of their chief
few moments later they wore an
xlous expressions.
Il don't want anything in particular,
gentemen," he said. Just wanted to
get you all here together for a moment.
Fact is I got hung up on an editorial
and l couldn't think of any way to col
lect my wits"
"Ha! ha! hal" laughed the great edi-
tor, as the four funny men filed out.
Couldn't either one of them beat that"
and he felt so elated he forgot all
about the editorial. Putting on his hat
he went out and took several drinks.

GRAYs VICTORIOUS.
They Defeated the Rochesters In a
FIes.Batting Game.
Evans Did Good Work In the Box Stand
Ing Of Eastern League Clubs.

The advocates OF free batting had
just such an exhibition at Adelaide
park yesterday az they are always
clamoring s~r. Both pitchers were
touched up often and hard and the ball
was sent sailing merrily TO the outfield.
Evans worked the Rochesters much
better than Vickery did the Grays. The
latter had solved his pitching and knew
that the wide curves sent into tempt
them 10 pound holes In the air would
be called balls If let alone. and by watt
ing for a straight pitch which Vickery
hoped might be a called strike. they
drew many bases on balls and when the
sphere did come over the plate squarely
just lifted It, getting total of IL hits.
Lynch drew four bases on called balls
and went to first the fifth time because
he was hit with pitched ball. out
of these starts Lynch scored three runs.
Batting errors gave Providence three
other runs.
Providence also ran bases well and
this good work aided by excellent
drives to the outfield netted eleven runs
all told.
Rochester played a fighting game
from the start TO finish. They contest
cd every decision. Smink being put out
of the game in the fourth inning for
thumbing his nose at Umpire Burns.
