A Wonderful Shot.

The Baltimore Herald of Satur-
day contained the following account
of the shooting of Havre de Grace's
boy wonder:
"Jesse ID. Poplar, the 7-year-old
shooter from Havre de Grace, Md,
is certainly wonder and bids fair
to be the coming crack shot of the
world, for his eye and nerve are
perfect and his judgement excellent.
He is probably the greatest shot in
the world to-day for his age. He
could shoot accurately the first
time he put gun to his shoulder.
He began to shoot on April last,
when he bagged from a blind 10
blackhead ducks. On May II at
the traps he killed II out of 20
pigeons at Is yards rise. On May
"a he killed Is out of 20, and on
June Z he came to Baltimore and
shot at the Baltimore Shooting
Association traps, killing 10 out of
20 with fourof his birds falling dead
out of bounds. On the 18th of the
present month Jesse killed 10
straight. AT the tournament this
week he was entered in 90 bird
race in each of the three days of the
meet, his scores being Is, 10 and
10 at Is yards"

Election Cases Again,

The Judges of the Circuit Court
for Cecil County were in special
session on Thursday of last week
to consider further in those tiresome
contested election cases which have
been before the public notice so
many months. The Court passed
an order that the ballot boxes in
the Fifth and Eighth districts be
opened and testimony taken to
show that the charge of irregular
tiles in counting the ballots in
those districts is true. The Court
will convene in special session Mon
day, August 4, to decide from evil
dence submitted whether or not a
recount shall be granted of all the
ballots cast at the last election in
Cecil county.

Base Ball.

An otherwise interesting game
at Pearl street Park, last Saturday,
was spoiled by the hasty action
of the visitors from North East.
Jess Biddle was declared out at
third base in the eighth inning,
and after an argument over a
supposed balk made by Riale,
which the visitors umpire would
not allow, the North East club
left the field. Up to this
time, the game was one of the
most exciting ever seen here.
The home team felded without an
error and Riale's pitching was in
old time style. With two men on
bases in the third inning, Riale
struck out White and Mackinson,
both heavy hitters. The visitors
also played well. The local players
hit the ball hard, but were unfor
tunate in placing several good ones
in left field where Dierling gobbled
everything in sight.
