The lovers of base ball are greatly elated over the prospect of a regular league game here on Saturday between the teams of Terre Haute and Grand Rapids. The game is one of those postponed by rain early in the season and will be eminently exciting. The Western lergue is playing very speedy ball now and the contest Saturday will be for blood as both teams will have in their crack pitchers. The jams played twogair.es at Terre Haute both yesterday and to-day and it was accordingly decided to play the fifth game on Saturday on neutral ground. Crawfordsville was decided upon and the game will accordingly be played here, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A.
Manager Long, of the Terre Haute team, was in the city yesterday and perfected the arrangements. The game will be played on the college grounds and will be called at 3:00 o'clock in order to enable people from the surrounding towns to witness the playing and return home on the evening trains. The following will be the batting order of the rival teams: (illAND ItAI'lllS. TEH UK IIAUTE.

To the Goat.
Fin Mount rode the Masonic goat at the grand (.a'hering the other evening and to-day one of his friends presented us with the followingelt'usiou assuring us that Mr. Mount composed it a few moments after the ordeal:
The goat. the goal, the bearded goat. The homed, the hoofed, the hairy goat As I'm a sinner of some note. This night. 1 rode the Masonic goat.
He was a beast of wondrous size, With lengthy limbs and glassy eyes, And beard that, swept the carpet clear. And liorn* that touched the chandelier.
Ye gods! if there's a time we feel Misgivings through our noddle steal: "I'is wheu we through the mys'tries float Upon the dark Free Masons goat.
Three times was I compelled to ride The beast around the Temple wide. And when I tried the fearful mount. My heart's pulsations all could count.
Twice did I make the circuit fair. With hold ou horns, on tail and hair But on the third attempt and last, When I presumed all danger past. He pitched me clear of horns and head, And left me far below, for dead.

Jeff Davis »nd "Ben-Hur."
Miss Varina Davis has written the following in an account of her father's home life, tastes, etc.: "Although he was an omniverous reader, devouring political and historical works side by side with Gaboriau's or any other sensational novel, he never seemed to have blunted his keen literary paatel, but appreciated the good books that came in his way with the zest of a boy. I remember reading aloud to him 'BenHur' from 10 o'clock until daybreak, both of us oblivious to the flight of time, and when my sleepy eyes refused to follow thelites I left him still absorbed in the novel—indeed, he did not go to rest until he had finished it."

Yesterday afternoon aboutlo'elockW. Russell, residing several miles northeast of the city in the Cochran neighborhood. was driving into town and stopped at the watering trough in front of Tom Clark's home on Whitlock avenue to water his horse. lie took the bit from the horse's mouth and as he did so his six year old son. Lawrence, who was in the buggy, raised his parasol. This frightened the horse which made a mad lunge and ran off, throwing Mr. Russell, who attempted to stop it, under the wheels, inilictiug painful injuries. The terrified animal dashed furiously down the Spring hilt and climbed the slope on the south still running. The little boy in the buggy showed great pluck in attempting to stop the horse by leauing over the dashboard and clutching the animal by the tail. This effort only frightened the horse the more, however, aud when Market street was reached it turned east, dashing past

Bonnell's grocery and almost upsetting the buggy. The seat cushion was thrown out but little Lawrence hung on like a shipwrecked sailor and lustily yelled for assistance. The horse turned at the grocery and going over to Main street turned east still dashing furiously. It turned east on Main street aud was finally stopped in front of John Brothers' place by the men working on the streets. The animal was then about exhausted, having ruu a mile in a wild and reckless manner. How the bugg}'escaped beitig wrecked is a wonder. Master Lawrence came out of his thrilling experience as cool as the traditional cucumber. Ilis father did not fare so well. He was hurt so badly that Dr. Barcus was called in a professional, although it is pleasant to state, not an official capacity. Mr. Russell was cut about the head and legs and badlj bruised, but no bones were broken. All in all the runaway had a very lucky termination for so wild and hazardous one.
Rev. H. M. Mlddleton,

Resolved. That we heartily assure Brother Middleton of our perfect confidence in his Christian character and ability, and desire lovingly to commend him to the continuous grace of God, and to the affection of those to whom he may be called to minister.
Pitclier Orth.
A1 Orth, who last season pitched for the State University base ball team and who appeared frequently on our diamond here is fast rising to prominence in base ball circles. He began pitching with Lynchburg, Va., this spring, playing in Bobby Berryhill's team, and so phenomenal was his success that the National League reached out after him. On Tuesday Philadelphia paid Lynchburg SI,000 for his release. There is sorrow in the Lynchburg camp as that place banked on Orth to win the pennant.
Mr. Ostroin Will Be Here.
It was announced by Dr. Tucker at the Methodist church Wednesday that conditions were favorable for the return of Evangelist Ostroin to this city next February. In event of his coming he will be accompanied by Harry Maxwell, who will have charge of the singing. It is more than likely that they will come.
She Will Get Well.

.I'jlder Kolnnxon, tin* Colored lt:iptiF*t Divine, lr» Ousted 1'roui lloly Orders,
In a card published elsewhere in this paper it will be observed that Klder Robinson, who has occasionally dispensed free grace aud boundless love from the pulpit of the Baptist church, has been ousted not oniy from the ministry but from the church. It appears that the career of the goodly Elder has not been marked by all those virtues which characterize the ideal Christian life. It will be remembered that his entry into Crawfordsville was a sensational one, he deposing Klder Miller, of sacred memory, after a sanguinary conlliot which had a sequel in the police court. Robinson, although successful in clVecting the exile of brother Miller, was not able to secure the pastorate of the church, lie preached loud enough, but then his record was found to have a few blots in it about as large as those occasioned by the explosion of an ink factory. Although not pastor of the church Elder Robinson represented himself as such to the agents of the several railroads and by this means secured clergymen's rates. In due time Elder Cromwell catne here and became pastor. Then Elder Robinson got very gay and began to circulate naughty stories about his rival. This aroused the ire of the church people and on Tuesday night they met and bodily fired Elder Robinson out of the temple. Elder Cromwell is said to be an excellent man and the evil stories told by Robinson have done him a great injustice.
The Stout Keunioii.
The Stout family reunion occurred yesterday in Reuiley's woods at Wesley and was quite a success. One hundred and thirty members of the family were present and fethe day was delightfully passed. A magnificent dinner and supper were spread and all present enjoyed themselves to the utmost.
Kxcluded.
E. W. Robinson, who was called pastor of the Second Baptist church of Marion, Ind., has been excluded from the Second Baptist church of Crawfordsville, where he was a member, for his disorderly conduct, therefore he has no right to preach or affiliate in any Missionary Baptist church. So ordered by the church.
A Success.
The social given under the auspices of Trinity Epworth League last Tuesday night on the lawn of Mr. Gardner proved a deeided success both socially and financially. A most enjoyable time was had by all. The receipts were about Si2.
Not Kqual to the Task.
Merrit Mj'ers, living east of town, ran into one of McFarland's 'busses on his wheel Wednesday night, but not with sufficient force to wreck the 'bus. It wrecked Mr. Myers, however, and it was some time before he vas able to proceed.

Will Begin Gaily.
The social season in Crawfordsville promises to open early this year and be unusually gay. There will be four and, perhaps, five fashionable weddings in September besides other social events of interest.
It Will Meet Here.
The next State camp of the P. O. S. of A. will meet in Crawfordsville, August 13, 1896. It was so decided at the Rushville encampment Wednesday.
