The new Heston-Willis building is
rapidly approaching completion. This
handsome brick structure adds greatly
to the business-like appearance of Wall

BICYCLE
THIEF.
EIOpes to StephenspOrt With
Charlie Halls Wheel.
Bike Was Recovered But the Rob-
Der Escaped.

Last week a slick youth named Under
wood, who claimed Henderson as his
home, went to the Barnes House and
engaged board.
While there he made the acquaintance
OF Charley Hall and also took liking to
the latter's bicycle.
One day he went to the shops and ask
ed Charles to lend him his wheel to ride
to Stephensport. Charley refused the
loan but the fellow went to the Barnes
House and took it anyhow.
He rode the wheel to Stephensport
and offered the wheel for sale to G. G..
Lewis, the agent for enough money to
pay car fare to West Point.
Mr.. Lewis had sold the wheel to Hall
and recognized it. He took the wheel
away from the thief and the latter be-
coming frightened, oarded passenger
train for Louisville and made his escape.

DUST.
ClOverpOrt Sends Two Teams
Home In Defeat.
Fourth-Of-JuIy Victories for the
Home Boys.

Victory perched on the banner Of the
Cloverport base ball team in the double
header game Of July 4th.
The Glendeanes and Canneltons both
went down in defeat before Heyser's
Perfectos and Pitcher Burch's beautiful
glass arm.
The attendance at both games was
very large and the rooters had the time
Of their lives giving the horse laugh to
their visitors.
The first game in the morning resulted
in the following score:
I23 g 50
Cloverpot 6 o--so
Glendeane o , o a-l7
Allen was in the box for Cloverport,
and struck out two, while Wells, pitch
ing for Glendeane, struck out two. Will
Allen made the largest batting record,
making seven base hits.
The game was rather ragged at times
but some brilliant plays were made by
both sides.
L. Vessels, OF the Glendesn's, cap.
tured the Cloverport people. He ia a
magnificent ball player, good humored
and a perfect gentleman. Everybody
down here will give him the glad hand
when he again visits this place.
AFTERNOON GAME.
The afternoon game proved to be a
slaughter of the lambs by Cloverport.
The Cannelton boys started in by play
ing snappy ball. They put up a beauti-
full practice game and the first three in
nings promised as pretty ball as has ever
been seen here. In the first Cannelton
scored once and then compelled Glover
port to mark up a goose-egg. In the
next two innings both sides BANKED.
After the third, however, the visitors
fell down. Kinghan, who was at the
box for Cannelton, proved an easy mark
for Heyser's PerfectOs. They found the
sphere and knocked it all over the field
The score was as follows:
Ia3 SC
Cannelton O-S
CloverPort no Ola o-37
Burch struck out IL and Kinghan 4.
NOTES.

That boy Burch is beaut at twirling
the sphere. He's got glass arm.
