Yesterday Was Wen by Koch-A De-
lay at the Pork Entrance. and n
Spill at the Finish.
The weather was threatening at four
o'clock, the time set for the start of the
five mile read race under the auspices
of the knights of Pythias, bat the
storm had not yet broken Soon after
the riders got off. a. remarkably hig,l
wind surrounded them with clouds of
dust, and interfered with their pace.
All the riders went along at mer-
ry clip, with the scratch men gradually
closing in on the limit men. At Echo
Point, Ed. Salada had gone to the
front, and looked like probable win
ner. From this point to the park en-
trance, the Salada boys alternated in
the lead. At the entrance an Elm
Grove car was moving by slowly, and
came to stop. Ed. Salada was COM
PEELED to ride around it, and thus lost
both first place and time prizes.
At the finishing point there was a
bad spill in which several persons
were more or less bruised. A wheel
was left standing and Chas. Reid and
Ed. Salada fell heavily, the latter strik-
ing bystander and knocking him
down on his face, badly cutting his
forehead.
The riders finished in the following
order: Koch, Charles Salada Chas.
Reid, Ed. Salada. Carl McGranahan,
Don Smith, Mackey ard Will Tucker.
Koch took both place and time prizes.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jun ll.-Indian-
apolis won the first game of the series
with Wheeling this afternoon by a score
Of II to 2. The easy victory was largely
due to the poor fieding of the visitors.
Ames was taken out of the box in the
third inning, after three singles and a
double were made off of him. Irwin re-
EIlieved him, and had he been given good
support the score would have been closer
Guese pitched for Indianapolis and kept
the visitors hits well scattered and his
support was sensational. Knoll started
the game with a home run, and in the
third inning singles by Knoll, STREET. and
Rothfus double scored the last run for
Wheeling The Hoosers combined hits
with the visitors errors and won. Thon-
gsy, new third baseman from Cincinnati,

While attending the Baptist State Convention last week Gov. Jeff guarded his language as well as any of the other good brothers and me thinks me hear him lead ing the choir in Wash Me and Shall be Winter Than the Snow'' and some brother says, Amen. , Augusta Vidette.
 We have known the Governor personally some 15 or 20 years aud we have always found him the same man whether in church or court. He may have led the choir at that Convention, for it is his nature to lead wherever he may be. If the Vidette will look back a few weeks, she will see where he literally did do some washing at the penitentiary and the Asylum also. Our Governor believes in eradicating knavery from our politics and telling the people the truth as he sees it and and if we will notice him careful ly and study the circumstances, we shall find he always hits the nail on the head. Gov. Davis is
 
 making us a model Governor and deserves the respect of all the good citizens of the state.

The above is a letter written
 by Capt, $. w. Smith of Malvern who comes to the rescue of sena- tor Jones in the matter of his
 bankruptcy record for the pur- pose of showing that if Senator in fact did bankrupt on an or phan girl for whom he was guardian an heir of the Eaton es- tate thathe had paid the same. if this be true then the Senator has scored a point in his favor. The letter seems to have been very artisticly prepared. It appeared in the Litter Rock Democrat of Wednesday the 20th inst. Let us dissect it for a moment and see if Senator Jones has in fact paid this claim. On the contrary he says, after abusing Governor Davis for injecting this into the campaign, that the Senator has long since adjusted this matter to the satisfaction of allconcerned We call the ready attention to the fact that the claim may be adjus- ted covers a multitude of sins
 and has many meanings. Paid has but one meaning. If the Senator has in fact paid this claim MT. Smith would have said so. As we understand it the wife of Gap, Smith was a very young Girl when Senator Johnes was her guardian. He had in his posses sion this money -$3, 3,50O-that be longed to her. He used it for his own benefit. He later took the bankrupt law on this claim. Capt Smith does not say that the claim has been paid, but that it has been adjusted. The affidavit of w. H. Cooper, @ resident of Malvern an old confederate soldier whose record as a soldier cannot be dis puted, may shed some light on this subject. Below we append the affidavit of Mr. Cooper for the perusal of those interested:
