COLUMBUS, O., June 26.-To-day's game
was a fine exhibition, in which Columbus
showed better form at the bat and won
with comparative ease. The tailenders were
strengthened by the addition of News at
first base and Mylette at shortstop, both
of whom made excellent impressions. For
once the speedy visitors were outclassed
at their own game the locals stealing five
bases to their one. The few errors made
cut no figure in the score, and all of the
six runs were earned by hitting and fast
work on the bags. Williams pitched
we'll nigh perfect game, and came within
ace of shutting out the leaders. Only
once did he allow the punching of hits,
when singles by Fox. Shannon and Kelly
filled the bases. and Fox reached the plate
on Byers's long fly TO center. Guese
pitched a very fair game, but was touched
up in three innings for enough hits to send
five men across the rubber with earned
runs Heydon caught six innings, and
then, complaining of overwork, gave way
TO Byers. who will work behind the bat
tomorrow and Friday also. Shannon was
in left field for the first time in several
days and played a fast game, notwith-
standing his one error, which was the muff
of fly ball after hard run. He also did
Fox played we'll at second, and beat out
two hunts. Alloway will pitch for the Wis

Mayor Roth Enters Denial.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
In a special from this city to your paper
of Thursday, June 20, your correspondent
from here does myself and the other peace
officers of this city, as well as the fair name
of Shelbyville. a great injustice in stat
ing that a religious meeting was broken up
on the public square of this city by band
of music, and that the officers did not give
the attendants at the meeting in question
proper protection. The truth of the matter
is that no such thing occurred. The band
in question stopped playing long before
reaching the square, and did not play UNI
til the meeting was over and the attend
ants had dispersed. To the truth of this
statement / can furnish a hundred at
fdavits, if necessary, from reputable resi-
dents. The officers were present and were
keeping order. Before the state conven-
ton of Sunday-school workers assembled
here last week. l. as mayor of the city, is
sued a proclamation calling on our people
in general to- give the visitors TO the city
every attention, and especially asked of the
police officers TO look well after their well
fare while in the city. L feel that L have
been wronged and the city of Shelbyville
and her people unjustly maligned.
