Jack Ryders Cliffdwellers took Mayor
Dahmans Cowpunchers into camp at Vim
ton street park yesterday afternoon before
a number OF the lovers of the national
game. together with most OF the young
women who work for the county and city
officials and who thought it the part OF
prudence to go to the park TO see their
bosses get a coat Of tan. The final score
was to in favor Of the court house
bunch, and one man alone IL responsible
for the whole works
Enough credit, too often, is not given to
the brain which handles any large scheme,
but in this case al credit must be given to
Colonel ]. J. Ryder for the magnificent
manner in which he handled his team from
the side lines. He had the advantage Of
Manager Grotte, that the latter was play
ing manager. and this, of codrse, handi-
capped him from handling the team as It
should have been done.
The fact that he did not expect his team
to win does not take away any honor, for
the victory for the colonel conceded every
point, allowing the city forces to name the
umpire. tell how many innings were to be
played and run the whole thing. That was
not all. He permitted them to run in Dan
Whitney as a ringer and told them they
could have Scully when City Clerk Butler
was injured and 1t must have been this
magnanimty which won out in the end.

BAD CONFEDERATION
AT KINGWO0p.
Valuable Property Destroyed and
One Life Supposed to Be Lost.

Last Friday morning about !
O'Clock a disastrous fire broke out
at Kingwood, w. Va, the county
seat of Preston, which was prob
ably one of the most destructive
fires the town has ever expert
enced. The fire originated in the
John White Livery stable and is
supposed TO have been started by
a tramp who had taken up his
nights lodging in the hay NOW,
which seems to be the only reason
able solution of the question of
the origin of the fire. The stable
was destroyed with all its contents
except the horses which were in
the stalls at the time. These were
removed without injury. Imme-
diately adjoining the livery stable
was the towns electric light plant
which was wholly destroyed; the
loss on this was $1,000 90 with
no insurance. The next building
to take fire was the machine shop
and new building just completed
in which a large lot of new ma
chinery had just been placed, and
owned by J. Frank Rodeheaver,
and was entirely destroyed with
all its contents. Loss S, ooo. 90
with no insurance.
The fire threatened to continue
its spread and cause still further
destruction, and in order to stop
its progress the saddle and har-
ness. building of Mack Evick, i'm
mediately in the path Of the de-
structive element, the contents of
which were removed, was torn
down. One other building which
TODD fire was saved by the hardest
kind of labor on the part of the
populace which turned out Ell
masse to fight the demon. The
town has no water works and the
only protection against fire is
from the water pumped from the
wells which supply the inhabi-
tants with water for ordinary use.
The loss on the livery stable is es-
timated at 100000 with 81, ooo.-
90 insurance. The town will be
without light at least six months,
as it will require that length of
time to replace the destroyed cleo
trlc light plant. 1t is reported
that probably one life was lost in
the fire as it is believed that the
tramp who had sought sleeping
apartments in the livery stable
was burned to death with it.

An English clergyman had a rich
parishioner, Lady Blank, who dictated
to and hectored him outrageously. At
length he declined to put up with this
kind Of treatment and told her ladyship
so. Thereafter she refused to put any
thing in the offertory, merely making
stately inclination over the plate
This moved an elder to remark in her
hearing, 1--WE could do with less of her
manners and more Of her cash" The
clergyman, dining at lords table, told

THE OLD HOME DAY"
A Custom Gradually Finding Favor
ThroughOut the Country.

A very pretty custom is grad
ually finding favor throughout the
country, which takes the form of a
public meeting, or reunion, of the
former citizens of locality. A
day is set, known as 1.-The old
home day." when all who can,
from far and near, meet in a grove
and enjoy picnic sometimes ex-
tending for several days, These
gatherings, for attractions, are
usually limited to the resources
and ability ofthose who belong to
the particular set, or "old home"
crowd holding the affair, and are
none the less enjoyable on this &C
count.
Indeed, almost every small COM
munity, within fifty years, has fur
nished a number of men who have
made a success in life and now
possess a widespread reputation,
and often considerable ability as
public speakers. Such persons
naturally furnish the star" at
fractions, and can usually be Sc
cured, for the greatest men, as a
rule, possess warm spot for the
"old home" and sentiment appeals
strongly to them to take the out
ing.
Country school grounds, when
there is a grove nearby, or picnic
groves, are usually selected. Camp
meeting grounds are also favored
spots; indeed nearly every commit
nifty contains spot, which natur-
ally suggests itself for an occasion
of this kind. 1t is the family re-
union idea, amplifed-home COM
ing for number of original fam
lilies. An essential feature, of
course, is review of local history,
by one or more persons qualified =,
and the reviewing of incidents
long past.
Such an event will be observed
at Mountain Lake Park July SYST
to Aug. end, when it is proposed
to invite all former residents of
this section to be present and meet
old friends and acquaintance and
talk over old times. An interest
ing program will be prepared for
each day,
