Horse Saves a Child.


ToLEDo, Ono, August 26.-An exceptional
instance of extraordinary development of in
stinct in horses came to light here yesterday
afternoon, and the animal playing the leading
part was Prince, twenty year-old family
horse owned by VIM. McDonough, a grocer
The four year-old daughter of McDonongh
wandered into the barn unobserved in the
afternoon and was soon at play on the floor OF
big box stall, the freedom of which is allowed
to Prince and another younger and very spir-
tied animal.
During her play the child fell under the
younger horse and might have been kicked to
death had not old Prince come to the rescue.
La the meantime search for the child had
been started Mr.. McDonough went to the
barn, and just as he entered he saw the old
horse softly grasp the child's clothing, and
lifting her from danger, deposit her on the hay
ia the manger, where he carefully guarded
her until Mr.. McDonough took her away.

Base Ball.

The Bird Hill base ball team defeated the
Bloom Club last Saturday on the grounds of
former, by score of 16 to 81. For five in
nings it seemed as if the home team would
loose. They went to bat in the sixth with
what seemed at that time defeat staring them
in the face, for before they could not connect
with Green's curves at the right time; but
luck changed. Three men managed to get
on bases; the the fourth man hit the ball
was Barnes, who with all eyes upon him
awaiting something to be done, raped a
homer to right field, resulting four runs; those
to follow at the bat took courage and banged
out six more runs at that inning. A beautiful
triple and several doubles were made by the
home team two home runs were made by
Barnes and one by Gorsuch; winning battery
Barnes, Logue and Shipley, losing battery
Green and Fogle. The same teams will cross
bats this Saturday.
The Day base ball team defeated picked
nine from Springfield, Daniel and Porters
August 81, at the,Freedon picnic, by score of
25 to IS. The Day club will play the Sykes

Rose E. Zentgraft died August 26. 1901, in West
minister, Md.
One loved has died and left me
For the dark and silent tomb,
Closed her eyes in sleeping slumber,
Faded in her early bloom
She did not sink by slow decay,
Like one who lives the longest;
But every tie was wrenched away
Just when those ties were strongest.
Gone from earth Yes. gone to Heaven,
Tender. dim eyes shall gaze in vain:
We shall hear her voice, oh. never,
Nevermore on earth again
Sleep on, dear wife, and take thy rest
In Gods sweet mansion fair.
For by and by will join you
In our Fathers palace there.
BY HER HUSBAND.
Time may pass and years may fly
And every hope decay and die
And every peaceful dream may set,
But my dear daughter We cannot forget.
There is grief that cannot find comfort
And wounds that cannot be healed,
And sorrows too deep in our hearts
That can't help be revealed
Though thou hast left this vale of tears,
And victory thou hast won,
mothers love still clings to thse,
Our dear departed one.
One short year has come and gone
Since we were forced to part,
But time and space cannot efface
Thy memory from our hearts,
BY HER MOTHER. MRS. WASH WAGNER.

Base Ball Team.
There is cracky base ball team
That thinks they are the go,
And if you'd see them play base ball,
You'd agree with us, we know.
They live in Dutch town, Sandyville,
And their pitchers name is Flater;
Cushing thinks he knows it all,
But of him wen tell you later.
They played game with the Berrett club,
And think they made some hits.
And when they saw they had lost the game
Had forty eleven fits.
And as to Flater's pitching,
We did not see his twisters,
Nor did your balls cause any falls
Or get tangled in our whiskers.
Hurrah for Doherty's twistersl
And his professional curves;
They frightened poor, old Sandyville
And made them lose their nerves.
They had to go way back
When they had lost their nerves,
And sit upon Gushing
And eat grandmother's preserves.
Their memory is not very long,
For they forgot the score;
But we will make allowance
For they are young no more.
Of course you need tonic
For your poor, old, shattered nerves,
And you can get pattern
Off ]. Doherty's curves.
Now pay your cute little umpire
To win the Asylum game
Please take this piece of good advice
Or you'll ruin your pretty name.
Berrett had refreshments
Which you could never eat.
For you are used to nothing
But corn bread and fat meat
Oh, no it does not scare us
To hear you've won two games,
From Pleasant Hill and Oakland,
think these are their names.
Well, we have won two games
Since we said bye-bye to you,
From Mt. Airy and the Crescents.
Now how does that strike your
Cushing thinks that he can catch,
But of course he doesn't know,
A base ball from tprnip
Or a catcher from crow.
Two-baggers now and singles
Seem to be the go
With all the Sandyville boys,
Wouldn't that jar you thought
Caple, Mann and Ditmap
Seem to be o. K,
But it would be alright for you
If Flater had full sway.
Well say bye-bye again to you,
Well say bye-bye no more,
The next game that you play with
Please don't forget the score.

deserted and abandoned the plaintiff and her
nfant child rem, ans: went to the State OF
Texas, where he is now living: that said de-
sertion and abandonment mas continued unin-
