Local Base Ball Lore.

A number of games have been
played on the local grounds during
the past two weeks, some good, some
bad, some one half one way and one
half tother. Last week, there was
game every afternoon and the
bleachers were kept busy and their
threats were made sore over contin-
uous coaching.
vINToN-MANCHEsTER GAMES.
Of the three games with Vinton
the last was by far the fastest game
and the most interesting. Vinton
won the first of the series by score
of to 4, the second was also the
visitors by a score Of s to l. The
third was a beautiful display Of the
game as she is played. Not a man
went home until the eighth came to
pass. We are growing to fear the
eighth inning-it seems filled with
fateful for bodings and here it was
Pitcher mick" with one man gone,
gave the second man at bat
his base on balls, No. 3 put
a safe hit out in left field, No. 4
placed one near the same place
and No. 5 batted one into
center, altogether bringing home
two men, and though this end
ed the scoring, the blow was hard
enough to make recovery hopeless.

Two civil war veterans were talking
over old fights the other night when
the older of the two asked:
"Bill, do you remember the day that
you thought you were dying down in a
hospital in Virginia after that hard
fight we had with the Confederates"
Some way Bill could not remember.
"Well," said the other, "you were ly-
ing there on the cot shot through the
head and through the hip"
II remember the wounds" declared
Bill. II rather do. l can feel them
yet"
GAS L said, you were lying there"
continued the old soldier. Some visit
ors came in, and there were women in
the party. You had given up hope and
thought you were dying, but you al
ways were anxious for grand stand

They had walked half way through
the park at a smart pace, and she now
sank on a shaded bench. He seated
himself beside her. They were entirely
alone save for an old man at one end
Of their seat immersed in a book. Their
agitated conversation continued.
"Oh, it is too DREADFUL" she shud-
dered, covering her face with her hands,
as if to shut out some unbearable sight.
Fearful" he agreed, deeply moved
and hopping the profuse perspiration
from his brow.
"Horriblew she added. 81 cannot

strive to think of it no more or it may
grow to prey upon our minds"
Pardon me-" said the old man on the
end of the bench, his watery eyes dis
tended in lively apprehension. HAS
there been some awful disaster? Have
you been forced to look upon some aw-
full tragedy?
The young couple regarded each 9TH

come engaged, and we were talking of
what a calamity it would have been
