Struck By Lightning.

A severe electrical storm passed
over southern Chester county on
Tuesday afternoon. During the
storm light1ing struck a tree on the
farm of j. g. Brown, near HopewelI
Cotton Works, and killed three
cows and two young bulls, which
bad sought shelter under the tree.
On the neighboring farm of B.
c. Reynolds, operated by the
Phillips brothers, four cows were
killed in the same manner, the
animals being under tree which
was struck.
The dwelling of E. Hughes Kirk,
near Nottingham, was struck by
a bolt and the weather board
ing torn off, the plaster in the
bathroom knocked from the walls
and ceiling and other slight dam
age done. The supposition is the
bolt followed the water pipes into
the well.

Base Ball.

Sylmar defeated Barnsley at the
latter place, on Saturday, 20 to 5.
Rising Sun and Blue Ball played
on the home grounds Saturday,
Blue Ball being defeated, 81 to IL.
The batteries were Keen and Eng
land for the home team, Roberts
brothers for the visitors.
By far the most important game
this season, in point of interest and
enthusiasm, was that of Tuesday
afternoon, played by the team at
present representing Rising Sun
and picked team composed Of a
number of the players who in
former years helped win the title of
champions of the county for Rising
Sun and successfully defended it
against all corners for years. The
picked team was styled the elias
Beens' and essayed to play the
game without any practice, most of
them not having handled a ball for
several seasons.
In point of sport it was great
game, and everyone, players and
spectators, enjoyed it Immensely,
but from scientific standpoint it
will not bear close analysis. The
Has Beens found the greatest diff,
Guilty in getting their eyes on the
ball while at bat, but as the game
progressed began to pick up in this
respect, and in the eighth inning
showed little of their old time
form, but had too big lead to
overcome. If the game could have
been prolonged for several innings
by special agreement, they could
have gotten in pretty fair practice
and done proper execution with the
bat. The number of long hits was
remarkable, the Has Beens getting
a home run and three 3-baggers,
while their opponents got home
run, two 3-baggers and a 2-bagger.
C. E. Dare, at second, carried off
the honors for the Has Beens by
fine fielding and lining out home
run, while Riale got four hits, one
of them being for three bases. For
Rising Sun, Terry in left field, did
the best work, England taking the
batting honors for his side with four
hits, one home run. The score:
Has Beens o o al oo4 l. o
Rising Sun I 2 I 2 ks
Hits-Has Beens, 9; R. S., IL. Home
runs-C. E. Dare, England. Three-base
hits-B. Reynolds, Ewing, Riale; Snyder,
Hall. Two-base hit-Keen. Struck out
by Riale, 7; by Reynolds, 10. Batteries
Riale and c. T. Dare for Has Beeus; C.
Reynolds and England for R. S. Umpire

The Canning Season.

Operations at the Rising Sun
cannery began this week, where to.
matoes are being packed. The
Bohemian laborers reached town
on Monday and are quartered at

weather has caused the tomatoes to
be slow in ripening.

The Reliance defeated the Sham

The Reliance defeated the Sham
rock III in the first international
yacht race for the Americas cup,
on Saturday, over a course of Is
miles to windward and return, by
seven minutes and three seconds
corrected time, the American boat
being handicapped one minute and
fifty-seven seconds for excess of
sail carried.
On Tuesday, over a triangular
course of 80 miles, the Reliance
again demonstrated her superiority
over the Shamrock, defeating her
by one minute and ten seconds.
The cup seems safe until better
boat can be built by Sir Thomas
Upton or some other sportsman on
the other side. The conditions are
the best three out of five races.
