 NOTES.
 Paschal did 1t with his little bat.
 Pence was missed on second base. He ought to be there.
 Perry, the Dardanelle player, sustained his reputation as an out fielder.
 Pettefer's swift throw was great.
 The pitcher that strikes out Ray must be a wonder. It just can't be done.
 Watson's double plays were pretty.
 Smiling John" Dickey is a good one in the box.
 Prof. D. l.. Paisley intended to begin a special subscription school ill this city last Monday, but the number that accepted his terms was not sufficient to justify him in beginning. He wanted select class and his prices were high. The prices were not too high for the special training he expected to give. We are sorry that there were not enough pupils to justify the continuance.

OF soldiers who fought in the Revolu-
