They came, they saw, they conquered, are the terms used in expressing the way that the game of ball went Sunday between the Ft. Wayne Nationals and the Rosenthals at Steele’s Park, as the visiting team won the game and won it strictly on their good merits, their fielding being superior to that of the home team. Ft. Wayne hitting was a revelation to the fans, plainly observed by the manner in which they swung those big clubs. The fans were given heart disease more than once when Ft. Wayne landed on the ball. Fourteen hits, some of them two base and'others three, tell the tale of woe and all came when the Nationals needed them most. Still, withall their hitting, the Rosenthals put up a nice game and more than once pulled pitcher Farrel out of some tight places. Where a hit would have done wonders, and proved most disastrous, the Rosenthals were weak—awfully weak, when it came to batting, and it was more through this fault that they lost than anything else. The Nationals started off at first and broke the ice in the fourth inning by getting two runs and repeating this trick again in the sixth and added three more to their belt in the ninth, making their scoreseven. The Rosenthals never got busy until the sixth, when they gathered in two, repeating the dose in the eighth, and capturing one lone tally in the ninth. The only possible chance that the Rosenthals had to win, was in the eighth inning, when they tied the score, Myers getting a terrific swipe at the ball and putting it to the tall timbers, for three bases, scoring on an over throw to third base. France beat out a bunt, stole second went to diird on an out and tied the score ® a nice hit by Touhey, but the Nationals could not be stopped and won in the ninth by some great

stick work. The features of the game were few k and far between and nothing sensational occurred outside the j Nationals’ bombardment. The following is the score by innings. 123456789RHE Natls 000202003 7 14 3 Rosthls 0000020 2 15 7 6 Summary Batteries, Farrel, Knapp and Pennington ; Hicks and Eggerman.

The Geneva Cornet band, one of the best musical bodies in this section, was in attendance at the game and enlivened the scene, the crowd and the game with some excellent selections. Drowned at Rome City. Albina May Segiun, a young lady who worked at the Murray House in this city until a few weeks ago and who was to return here this week was drowned in Sylvan lake at Rome City Sunday afternoon at three o’clock. Her escort Edward McCarthy a cigar maker of Ft. Wayne also lost his life at the same time. Miss Seguin was nineteen years old and her home was at St Louis, Michigan. She and a half sister, Miss Josephine Roe came here last August and secured positions as table waiters at the Murray hotel where they worked until a few weeks ago. Lately they returned to Ft. Wayne and secured positions as domestic. Miss Albina had sent word here asking for her old position and Mr. Murray expected her to come this week. She was a popular girl about t he hotel, lady like, good natured and always well behaved. Sunday she and Mr. McCarthy went on an excursion to Rome City. Where they secured a boat and went to what is known as Kane lake a portion of the Main lake at the extreme south part. The woman rowed the boat while her companion was casting for bass. While making a long throw McCarthy who was standing up lost bis balance and fell into the lake. He arose and got hold of the boat and had crawled up onto the end and cried to some friends nearby that he was alright, when the boat started to overturn caused by being nearly filled with water, Miss Seguin fell into the lake and immediately sank from view, never coming to the surface. McCarthy who was still clinging to the boat made a last effort to save his sweetheart and with an arm about her sank from view. Several boats were near but were unable to do anything it seems. One man threw his anchor rope to the drowning people but Mr. Carthy missed it. The water was about ten feet deep where the accident happened and the bodies were recovered within twenty minutes by a man named Noll but all effort to resuscitate the victims proved futile. The bodies were taken to the office of Dr. L. Stroup, where they were viewed later by the coroner, Dr. Carver, of Albion. They were then taken in charge by Undertaker Berhalter Bros., of Kendallville and prepared for shipmen to their homes. On McCarthy’s forehead was found a long, deep bruise, which indicates that he struck a stump or snag when he first fell overboard. In his pockets the coroner found 113 in cash. The bodies were held at Rome City awaiting orders from the relatives of the dead. It is not known whether the remains will be taken to Ft. Wayne or shipped direct to the homes of the victims. McCarthy was twentyfive years old and had recently came to Fort Wayne from Reading, Pa., a number of Decatur people were in Rome city and saw the bodies of the unfortunate victims. A dispatch from Washington says the post office department has recently made their announcement of promotions and additional clerks for the various post offic°s o f first and second class beginning with July Ist. The list includes many Indiana cities the Dec atur office se curing three promotions and raises in salary. One clerk is promoted to |4OO and one to SSOO and one to S7OO. Uncle Sam’s generousneSs will no doubt be appreciated by his faithful postal servants.

LawgUnconstitutional. INDIANAPOLIS, June 22—The act of 1903, by which it was attempted to postpone the election of a large number of county officers to make the terms of all such offices begin on the first day of January, following their election is unconstitutional. The supreme court so decided today in affirming the case of Frederick L. Gemmer vs the state on relation of William H. Stephens. None of the judges dissented though Judge Jordan merely concurred in the result without approving Judge Dowling's opinion. The effect of this decision will make necessary next fall the election of 38 circuit judges, thirteen prosecuting attorneys thirty seven county auditors, twenty nine clerks twenty seven recorders, thirty nine treasurers, eight sheriffs and four coroners to succeed officers whose terms would have extended a year or more by postponing the election of their successors under this law. Praises Adams County • L. C- Ward, of Indianapolis assistant state geologist of Indiana, left this morning after a weeks work in Adams county. While here he visited every stone quarry and gravel pit in the county and inspected every gravel and stone road. His object is to prepare a report of these conditions which will appear in the geologists annual report next January. He said he had practically completed his tour of the state and was surprised to find that Adams had more stone roads than any other county in Indiana, a condition to be proud of. He examined the stone found in this community very closely and said the stone found in the Pleasant Mills quarry was the best in the state for general purpose with the exception of tne Bedford field. The Bowers stone is just as good for road purposes while the Linn Grove, Blue Creek and others follow closely. The Adams county gravel he said did not average so well though he spoke very highly of the pits in the north part of the county. He was enthusiastic over the stone roads and said the citizens would be more than satisfied for they are the cheapest in the long run. Mr. Ward is a very pleasant gentleman.
