Comstock Released.

Charley Comstock was arrested
last Tuesday, on ofidavits by
several prominent citizens, charg-
ing that he had induced them to
lend their names as security for
him on several loans, falsely re-
presentating to them that he was
the owner of real estate in Logan.
He was confined in the county Jail
pending an investigation. At the
preliminary hearing, Friday eyen-
ing, at 6 o'clock, before Mayor
Tritch, the matter was comprom-
ised, the atlantis taking mort
gage on some properly of Com
stocks father, making his indeb-
tedness payable 500 down and
5000 year, with interest, Com
stock was very fortunate in es-
Gaping so easily, as prosecution
would have meant the penitentary.

The afternoon game was, in
some respects the rottenest, and in
some the most interesting, of the
season. 1t was essentially slug
ging match, and was nobody's
game till the finish. In the fifth
the score was twelve to five for
Logan; the Devils added eight In
the next three, shutting Logan out. /.
In the last of the ninth, the latter
needed one to tie and two to win,
and expectation stood on tiptoe.
Lytle made first on a tumble by
short, stealing the next one; Beck
singled and stole; Cramer ground
ed and Lytle came home on long
chance, landing safely; and Becky
did the same on little grounder
by Stultz, safe by hair, but win
ming the game.
The Red Devils are the worst
lot of "beefers" that ever played
in Logan; they kicked on nearly
every decision against them, and
made number of puerile refusals
to play; they are not in the same
class with the Logan team, and
we hope this is the last of them
here.

in the heat CT roofing, that cannot
be seen to better advantage under
any other conditions. Ball play
ers, as rule, aislike "knocking"
and are sometimes unduly sensi-
tive to sarcasm and unfavorable
remarks. But we think the most
strenuously disastrous ass of the
entire outfit of rooters is the man or
bow who will give one of his home
players dirty knock" for a
misplay. failure, or error in a.
game, especially when the home
team is up against stiff PROPOSE
ton. Some of the inetfable hy-
drocephalous idiots that infest the
grand stand and b q a C h er Q
at Riverside Park seem not to con-
slider the facts, that almost with
out exception, the ball players OF
our team work every dav and can
not practice like professionals and
that thew all play without salary.
This is some slight salve to the
wounded feelings of player to
think that, at any rate he is being
paid something for his work.
There is not team in the Hook
ing Valley that can match
Logan, considering the amount OF
practice they have. And leaving
all that out of consideration, it is
dirty, mean and little, to root
against the home club, or "throw
the hooks" into home player.
And whenever we see some ques-
tionable mental Hercules with
head like a gumdrop, the light of a
hot future burning in his optics
trying to roast a Logan player,
even if he does play bad ball, we
wish, in the words of the sage,
that we had a foot like Brigham
Young's tombstone, with swing
to it like n pile driver, and we
would kick that obnoxious rooter
so high that he could see the
dome of the courthouse in the New
Jerusalem" These are our senti.
ments.

unloaded, but the attendance in
the afternoon wos all that could
be desired. The former was for
only seven innings on account Of
the late hour of commencing.
Wright pitched the first game
for Logan. 1t took him three in
nings to get settled down, bnt he
did nice work for the rest, allow
ing only three hits for the bal
ance of the game. The Logan
boys were all in pretty good bat
ting trim, making twelve hits, In
cluding screaming home run by
Wakely, in sixth inning. The
game is tabulated as follows:

In spite of the threatened rain
Sunday, a large crowd was out to
see the game between Logan and
Middleport. The latter team is
com posed of players from Pome-
roy, Mason City, and Gallipolis
also, and the lineup they brought
was good and strong. The home
team was little weakened by the
absense of Beck, although Lytle,
playing the unaccustomed position
of first base, did good work, get
ting everything but one wlld
throw over his head, and catching
several low ones and pick-ups ad-
mirably. Hazelton, of Jacksonville
who played left field, made him
self solid with the crowd by his
beautiful fielding. He nailed
everything in his part of the field,
having six put-outs, and etfectu-
ally vindicated his ability to field
the position. Two other Nelson
Vile men were in the bench, one
Of them, Kyre, taking Kennard 8
place for one inning. Dasher
was not quite up to his average in
the box, but pitched good game,
all around. The Middleport team
claimed a score by Talbot in the
first inning, made on an interfer-
ence by Whalen, for which the
latter was called out, that being
the third out. A glance at Rule
50 will satisfy anyone of the error
of this opinion. Logan secured
the same number of hits as Mid
dleport, but they were not go
placed as to make the ruus. The
visitors put up nice game, and
with the exception of a little
"blockiug" game practiced by
McMaster, first baseman, nothing
can be said against their tactics.

Lives Lost-Assistanc Asked,


Springvale, Maine, April 14.-The
greater portion of the business section
of Springvale together with many
dwellings was destroyed by fire today,
entailing a loss estimated at $4,000
Assistant sent by the Portland fire
department arrived in time to prevent
the entire village from being Cbliter-
ated, In all 35 buildings were burned
No lives were lost. The fire started
in boot and shoe factory owned by
the W. R. Usher & Son Co., of New
bury port, Mass, and spread rapidly
to group of wooden buildings in the
vicinity
The local fire facilities were wholly
inadequate and for several hours the
flames were in complete control. Aid
was asked of Portland Sanford, Al
fred and Rochester, n. Y, but before
sufficient help arrived many of the
largest buildings were levelled Be
sides the Usher factory the structures
destroyed were a vacant shoe factory
formerly occupied by the Shaw, God
ing company, the Odd Fellows build
ing, the Western Union Telegraph of
fee, the New England Telephone ex-
change, Tibbetts hotel, Masonic block,
containing dry goods store and restau.
rant Folsom Bros furniture store and

Probable Location of Squadron


Berlin, April 14-Admiral Rojest-
vensky squadron is believed by the in
telligence given by the German navy
department to be lying off the Cuyos
islands, 80 miles south of Mindoro.
Philippine islands, re-coaling and pre-
pairing for the last stage of its long
voyage.
Although these islands belong to the
United States, they have fine anchor
ages outside the three mile limit with
hard bottom at 20 to 25 fathoms
The German navy department re
ceiyed in telegram today from one
of the East Indian ports an indication
that the Russians when off the south
ern end of Cochin China April II
changed their course and headed on a
course which would bring them to the
Cuyos islands in the northern part OF
the Sulu Sea, 500 miles distant, in
four days at the rate of knots an
hour.
The City islands lay technically in
such a position that the approaches
can easily be watched by the Russian
scouts. Three cruisers, it was added
had been beached. presumably for q
diversion on the the coasts of Japan
probably in the hope of calling off Ad
miral Togo in pursuit.
