The babe ball enthusiasts who faned to see the game between the Awkwards and the Blues yesterday afternoon, missed by far the best game of the season. The rivalry between these clubs has been warm, and although the Blues had won all but one of the games, the red-legged boys did not lose heart, but kept pegging away, and yesterdays game shows the effect of good work. There seemed to be a general impression that the game would be the most closely contested of the season, with the chances slightly in favor of the Awkwards. A great deal of money changed hands on the game.

Play was called at three o'clock, with the Blues at the bat. They went out. with a goose egg, after Nelson and C. Myers had.gotten to their bases. The Awkwards went to work right at the start, and scored a run in their first inning by base hits by Anderson and Gallagher, assisted by errors. They added a run in each of the following innings, by timely batting. They were then whitewashed for five successive innings, leaving them with three runs at the beginning of the ninth inning. The Blues were also goose egged for five straight innings, butli in the sixth inning, by a single baser by Nelson and a double bagger by Doll, W. Myers and Nelson crossed the home plate. They were then whitewashed for two innings.

At the beginning of the ninth inning the score stood 3 to 2 in favor of the Awkwards. Sholton, who had done nothiug with the ash heretofore, cracked the ball for one base, and was followed by J. Myers, with a single. Sholton was forced out at second, and by base hits by Briggs and W. Myers, a run was scored amidst the greatest enthusiasm. Riley had reached his base on a passed grounder, and the bases were full, with one out. Nelson sawed the air three times. Anderson dropped the third strike ball, then held it at home, and threw to iliird, making a double play, putting out Riley and Briggs, and ending the Blues' rungetting.

The Awkwards went in with one run to make to win. Bell made a base hit, got round to third and came home on Bennet's hit past short. This won the game, with none out. Bennet, Stump and Hess then went out, and the umpire announced the result amidst cheers and yells that could be heard for squares

The BlueS were beaten at the bat, but excelled in the field. The Awkwards batted hard at the right times and by thus judiciously branching their "hits won the "game. The two scores made by the Blues in the sixth inning were ran in after two men were out, and by a wild throw. Stump pitched a good strong game for the Awkwards, and was ably supported by Anderson.. The former is improving, and the Blues did not experience the same ease in hitting him as heretofore, llepp, A. 'Myers, J. Myers,Doll and Riley did the best playing for the Blues, Hepp and W. Myers leading at the bat. Bennett's play at short field and Iless' at first, were the best points in the Awkwards' game, outside of the battery. The details are given in

Notes.

The Awkwards will probably go over to Paris next Wednesday to play the Reds.

The Blues are not satisfied with the result of yesterday'sgame,and desire to challenge the Awkwards to a game for §100 a side, to be played any time next week.

Les Jostyn, pitcher of the Greencastle Blues, has gone to Minneapolis, Minn., to take a position in a large clothing house. This leaves the Blues without a pitcherat present.

The game of base ball annouueed for yesterday, between the Paralyzers and Peelers, could not take place, owing to the transfer of a part of the night force to the day seduce, and a number from the day to the night force. The Peelers will be ready to play some, time next week.

Alderman Harmon, who has lately succeeded to that distinction,isalready evolving plans for the salvation of the city. Harmon is a great reformer.

LIAST DAY

Of the Vigo County Teacher's Institute.

The final session of the Vigo teachers was held yesterday irfthe usual place. The meeting was called to order promptly at. nine o'clock by Mr. John Donaldson, and after singing, which was conducted by Trof. M. Seiler, with Miss Marv King at the piano, prayer was offered by Rev. Whitlock. The attendance was large and the programme was a good one.

The first exercise was by Prof. Sciler who finished his paper on reading. Several stanzas from one of Hollands

Coard,

oems had been written upon the and Mr. Seilcr tools these to illustrate the mode of teaching reading to pupils. The words were examined in regard to their meaning, derivation, composition and use in the sentence, and the figures of speech received especial attention. The emphatic words were searched out in order that the emotions and thought could be clearly seen.

Following this, Prof. Eli F. Brown gave his final discussion on arithmetic, and especially on percentage, dis cDunt and interest. He made a thorough treatise on these branches of arithmetic and showed the relation that exists between percentage and in terest. He said that interest is applied percentage, which involves time.-

A short recess was taken, after which Prof. Seiler took up geography and drew a diagram of the eartn. He spoke of the imaginary lines which are drawn on the earth and their use.

Prof. E. F. Brown gave his farewell talk in natural science, which was made very interesting by the illustra tions which were prepared for the occasion by Supt. Allen. He stated that the time for expensive aparatus had passed and that experiments were now performed with less expensive instruments. He/illustrated the use of the siphon and /explained the phenomenon of the intermittent spring. He also exhibited the turbftlje water wheel.

The noon intermission was taken, and promptly at 1:30 o'clock the institute reassembled with the largest attendance there had yet been.

Dr. Taylor who was to have deliver ed a lecture on the dangers of animal food, was not present, and his place was supplied by Judge Scott, who gave a snort talk to the institute.

Prof. E. F. Brown gave his last lecture on drawing. To illustrate the mode of teaching the subject he drew severairfigures combining curved lines and the perspective, and had the insti tute do tne same on their paper.

After recess, Miss May McEwan sang a solo in such a manner that it called forth great applause. Mr. Albert Wyeth officiated at the piano.

Miss Grace .Hayward gave a recication, "Edith helps things along," and received «reat praise.

Miss Blanche Straus recited an amusing piece on the mule, much to the delight of the audience.

Miss Alice Fisher was called upon for a recitation, but failed to respond. After a few remarks from Superintendent Allen the meeting adjourned.

City Teachers.

The city teachers were requested to remain after the adjournment of the county institute and hold a meeting. Superintendent Wm. Wiley presided. The roll was called, and out of ninety names only three failed to respond. Mr. Wiley then addressed the meeting, giving* some advice to the teachers. He said that the pnpils who were suspended from school last year should be admitted to school without any ceremony, except a promise of good behavior. -The vaccination law is to be rigidly enforced. He also stated that there would be no great change in the books to be used the coming year. The meeting then adjourned until the second Saturday in the first school month.

The High School faculty were to hold a meeting for the purpose of giving $15 towards the gymnasium fund, but it was postponed until Monday.
