SINCE SWEETHEART DIED,
 HID HIS FACE FROM MAN

Louisville. Ky. Aug. 1s.-News has come to this city of the death at Greenbrien. Nelson county. of Basil Hayden. who had not stepped outside the picket fence bounding his yard since President Lincoln freed the slaves.
 It was not resentment. at this act that caused Hayden's seclusion, for neighborhood tradition Is that he shut himself in little room that day In 1868, after his sweetheart died and looked no more upon men.
 An overseer of Hayien's estate nam. ed Borders, was the only human be- ing whom the anchoritc saw and Bof- deFs has declared that the words which ne exchanged with the recluse, In a score of years. can be enumerated up- on his fingers.
 Borders took care of Hayden's prop erty until a mistake in accounting made by a bank clerk exasperated the hermit: and thenceforth. penur- iousness having gripped him. he hid an estate which will amount to nearly S1 CO., 000, in chinks and pillow slips and cast-off clothing.

Game at Ptlxe Road,

Pike Road. Ala, Aug. 1s.-(SpeciaD In very exciting game of ball Pike Road beat the Cecil aggregation or their own diamond by score of tc 1. The game from the start was snap py and full of interesting plays. There were comparatively few errors on eith- CT sije and the outcome was due to the superiority in batting of the Pike Road team.
 Logue for the victors was effective throughout with men on bases. He easily outpitched Huggins on the Cecil team.
 The fielding of Armistead for Cecil was one of the features. Davis for Pike Road did some star catching be- hind the bat and the infield gave Logue excellent support.
 Owing to the delay in starting the game only seven innings were played and Cecil made her run in this in- ming on account of two errors in suc- cession.

It Is very probable that all the cases which went over from the June to tho October term Of the City Court. charg- ing violations of the prohibition law. will be nolle pressed. In an interview today.
