BASE BALL.

The Bel Air and Baltimore and Ohio
base ball clubs played two games at ORR
ole Park on Saturday afternoon and
made an even break. The home club
won the first by score of 4 to 2, and
the railroad men carried off the second
by a score of 4 to l. The pitching of
Subway Smith in the first game held the
Baltimore and Ohios down to 3 hits,
while the Bel Air boys scored II off their
pitcher, Fanwell. In the second game,
Bertrand did the pitching for the Bel Air
boys and was touched up for 10 hits,
while Drennen, the Baltimore and Ohio
twirler, held the home boys down to 6.
The Sparrows Point club defeated the
Elkton nine in the closing game of the sea-
son by a score of 5 to l. Elkton has not
been playing particularly good ball late
ly and this accounts for its defeat.
A picked team of the Athletic League
defeated Bel Air at Oriole Park on We'd
nesday by score of 10 to 3. The Bel
Air boys were up against tough propo-
sition and deserve great credit for the
showing that they made, considering the
fact that the other team refused to allow
the Bel Airs to put in pitcher that they
thought would be a good match for
their opponents. While the score Of 10
to 3 indicates a decisive defeat, yet the
Bel Air boys played fine ball, and if their
battery had been stronger the tale
would have been different

FATALLY INJURED IN A SAW MILL.

Mr.. John Ramsay Richie, lumber
buyer, of Stewartstown, York county,
met with fatal accident on the Fendall
property, near Vale, on Wednesday after
noon. Mr. Richie has a saw mill on
this place, where he had been cutting up
lumber. During the temporary absence
of the regular operator of the mill, MIR.
Richie attempted to saw alog. In some
way his clothing became caught in the
carrier and he was dragged over the
saw. His right leg was almost severed
from his body near the hip, although,
strange to say, the main artery was not
cut. His right arm was also cut off.
DR.. Sappington and DR.. Davis were sum-
moned and started to take the injured
man to the hospital. On his way to the
station he succumbed to shock and died in
few moments.
Mr.. Richie was unmarried ard is sur
vived by two sisters. He was man of
considerable property and we'll liked by
all who knew him His shocking death
will come as a surprise to the many
friends he has made wherever he has had
any business connections.

No New Cases.

We are glad to note that there have
been no new cases of Texas fever since the
publication Of our last issue. The total
number of deaths so far fror this disease
are Messrs B: NJ. Dever, 7; c. w. Baker,
10; J. Parker Mitchell, 4; Howard Rich
ardson, 2, and Morgan Mitchell, 3. A
number of the cattle that were affected
with the disease are improving, and the
worst is now believed to be over. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. Dever turned a
lot of 50 in with the herd that shortly
these are affected and the time is now
about past for the development Of the
symptoms.
The government inspector was at the
residence of MIR. Dever on Friday and is
looking into the case. 1t seems that Is
of the cattle Mr.. Dever purchased were
raised in one of the counties in Kansas,
and their domesticity shows that they
had not been herde d on the plains. There
were SO in the original bunch and those
that Mr. Dever did not take were sold to
other places Nowhere has the disease
developed, which would indicate that the
cattle which came to Hartford were
afterwards infected. They were taken
off for feeding twice, once at st. Louis,
and the other time at Parkersburg, West
Virginia. This would indicate either in
fected cars or premises which the cattle
occupied in transit. If the government
can trace the responsibility, the guilty
parties will be subject to fine of So, 900
and imprisonment, as this infractiou of
the law is a serious one.
Mr. Dever has since ordered three car
loads of cattle from Kansas City, which
will be sold in Hartford this week. A
portion of the same have already been
purchased by Mr.. c. w. Baker, and the
balance will be taken to premises remote
from the present location of the diseased
animals.
The scare and danger seems to be en-
tirely over, and those most interested
are to be congratulated for the manner
in which thev have handled the disease

BURNED TO DEATH.

Mrs. Mary Lloyd, widow of the late
Robert Lloyd, was burned to death by
flames from gasoline at the home of her
son. Mr.. John Lloyd, of Cardiff, at an
early hour on Wednesday morning. 1t

the stove with the liquid and some had
spilled on her clothing, for us soon as she
had struck a match her body was i'll a
sheet of flames. Death resulted i'll five
minutes. She was burned to crisp,
even her shoes being blackened by the
flames She called for assistance and her

five sons. Her funeral took place on
Thursday afternoon, the interment being

"NlNE1Y.flYE CENT TOMATOES.

The season for packing tomatoes is
about over, and the firm prices indicate
that the jobbers are realizing short
crop in spite of the increased acreage.
Baltimore Gamers have been paying
from % cents to $1.10 for the raw ma
terial this week, which would require a
market Of $1.1O dozen to make any
profit The market for number 2 toma-
toes is especially high and from tn to
80 cents are the prevailing figures, in fact,
persistent inquiries showed that none
could be bought at the first named figure.
The market of number 3s can best be
expressed by an article in New York
Journal of Commerce and Commercial
Bulletin, which under the heading of
Tomatoes again firm; packers are now
reluctant to shade 90 cents" has the fol-
lowing to say:
The market for Maryland tomatoes
is in a sensitive condition. At the first
indication of a general disposition
among buyers to hold off for concessions
disposition is shown in some quarters
at least to accommodate them, but a
few orders apparently suffice to restore
the backbone of packers, and the buyers
who thought to profit by the temporary
weakness find that the goods offered at
a shade under the market have either
| been sold or withdrawn. Following the
sales of few car loads at 90 cents f. o.
b.. and of the other business covering
several thousand cases at 9212 cents f. o.
b. for standard pounds, orders were
sent to Baltimore for a number of blocks,
aggregating quite few cars, at 9212
cents f. 0. b but the brokers found sellers
reluctant to go on at that figure, the
asking price of those who had anything
to offer being firm almost invariably 90
cents f. o. b.
The advancing price of tomatoes means
thousands of dollars to Hartford county,
There is every reason why we should see
a much higher market for legitimate
reasons. The short crop is apparent to
everyone who is interested in the pro-
duct, either as raiser, packer or buyer
We cannot commend an effort to ham.
mer our own securities when the inter.
ests of Hartford are so vital. This is the
critical time with many of our people
and calls for all hands joining togetherir
trying to get every possible dollar We
can for our products. We do not believe
that there should be any artificial stimu
lus, but all legitimate means must bt
taken advantage of to advance the mar
ket, and scant encouragement should bt
given those who have been beating dowr
prices for narrow minded reasons or fan
cied wrongs. We should all rise to tn
broadness OF the situation and cooper
ate accordingly.

CHORAL CLUB ORGANIZED.

The members of the Choral Club met
pleted the final organization as follows
President, Frank E. Gorrell secretary,
Charles II. McComas; treasurer, Miss
Annie Laurie Worthington These Of
hcers were authorized to draft the neces-
sary constitution and bylaws and re-
port the same at the next meeting of the
club, which will be held on Friday even
ing, October 5. The tot al membership is
now sixty, with every prospect of ma
terial increase. 1t is proposed to give
several cantatas during the winter which
will be events of public interest to the en-
tire community.
Now that the organization is assured,
every one should do all in his power to
help make it a success. There is no re-
ligious creed or social status in this work,
which means so much to everyone The
large number Of subscriptions of patrons
have been very gratifying, as it shows
that general interest has been aroused.
Musical cultivation means an uplifting
of the moral tone, which is linked with
the progressiveness of our social status.
Harmony is not confined to the musical
world alone, but perhaps it has there the
best human illustration. A closer ac-
quaintance with its methods brings US in
nearer touch with the better world and
appeals to our nobler instincts
We cannot urge too strongly greater
interest in places nearby our countyseat.
There seems to be some little disposition
to hold back, but we think that this will
be overcome when the general spirit of
cordially is appreciated. All who are
interested should not fail to be present at
the next meeting, even if they do not in
tend to join. The force of numbers is a.
ways an inspiration and will encourage
better work.

which will require about $4,000 bricks

Toilet rooms will be located on the first
