Georgetown, KY, Nov. 16.-During
the examination of special veniremen
in the Caleb Powers trial 1t developed
that Harrison county had been flooded
with Powerss published book contain
ing his speeches and accounts of his
trials. Out of twenty-four prospective
jurors examined fully half had receiv-
ed through the mail, from some I'M
known source, copies Of Powers's
book, which. it appears, had been sent
to various precincts from which ven
iremen had been summoned. This dis
covery caused q decided stir in the
courtroom.
An amusing contrast with these de-
velopments was the statement Of one
venireman who had never heard Of the
noted case and had never read q paper
containing an account of 1t.

star twirler, was the cause OF the locals
going down TO defeat by score Of to !
at South Side Park on Saturday after
noon. The Peaches had scceral chances to
score run or two and had men on second
and third bases but the single that was
necessary was not forth coming. Wolfe
was in the box for Wilmington and pitch
ed good bah but Lancaster hit him at
times when hits were needed
Newtons one hand catch Of McI.ane's
drive was the feature Of the game and
cut the home team out of a run. Cassidy
again covered third and Barthold first.
Both put up a good game.
Lancaster started the scoring Ia the
second inning, when they connected for
three singles which netted them one run.
Another run was scored in the fourth on
Raubs hit, Gady's high throw to sec
ond, which went out into centre field, and
Rementers safe hit
Wilmington made It's only run in the
sixth inning. Wolfe, the FIRST man up,
