THE STATE NORMAL BUILDING.

Mr. Miller lieudy to Go to Work, but Somewhat Delayed by Preliminary Work.

Very little was done at the Normal ruins yesterday beyond the driving of stakes for the excavations to be made for the additional foundations. Mr. Miller, the brick and stone contractor, has found on examining the ruins that a great deal of work will have to be done on the walls before he can commence l.iying brick. These will have to be taken down several feet in a number of places, and at other points the workmen failed to level the walls as desired. It does not properly come in Mr. Miller's contract, and there is a portion of it that should have been done by Shover & Christian. In the meantime Mr. Miller will go ahead with

hiB

work, and the

board will decide what is to done on the other.

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 17, 1888.

LOCAL BASE BALL.

The Vigo-Rockets Game on Sunday Afternoon—Notes of Interest.

The game between the Vigos and Rockets at the park on Sunday afternoon was largely attended, a good contest being anticipated between these, the two best clubs in the city. The Vigos appeared for the first time in uniform. The game was marked by no special playing on either side, and.a disagreeable feature was the frequent and long objection to the umpire's decisions. George Carroll umpired for four innings and then gave way to William Shultz, who finished the game. Early in the game, Gordon, catcher for the Vigos, was disabled and Webber took his place. The score by innings was as follows: Rockets 5 2 010101 0-10 Vigos 1 1 1 2 0 0 0 3 0-8

The players were: Rockets—Stump, 1b; Barnes, p; Anderson, Kline, cf; Smith, 2b; J. King, 3b Sells, c; Dunn, 1 f:

C. King,

Vigos—Hill, 3b; Connelly, lf; Stewart, cf; Kelly, ss; Webber, c; Davy, 2b; Duncan, rf; Tully, 2b; Wilmington, p.

The Bloomingtons defeated the Peoria on Sunday by a score of 6 to 3. The Brooklyn ball club passed through the city on Sunday enroute from St Louis to Columbus, O.

The Maroons went to Seeleyville on Saturday afternoon, and were defeated by the club of that place by a score of 8 to 3. "Cod" Myers came home on Sunday to spend the day. He was able to run over, as the Washingtons were booked to play at Indianapolis.

The drummers have challenged the clerks to a game of ball on Sunday next, the game to be played on the south Seventh street grounds.

The second game between the North and Soute siders, of the police force, will probably occur this afternoon at the ball park. The North siders insist that they were taken at a disadvantage in the first game and that on this turn they will give their rivals all the fun they can take care of.

There were a great many other games on Sunday morning and afternoon. The High Schools defeated the Dirigos for the second time on south Seventh street by a score of 22 to 11. The Passtimes defeated the Awkwards on north Third by a score of 21 to 4, the former club appearing for the first time in their new uniforms. The contest between the Golden Eagles and Athletics on north Ninth was won by the former club by a score of 14 to 8.

BICYCLE NOTES.

The Attacks in the Crawfordsvllle-News papers not Sanctioned by the Cyclists.

O. M. Bartlett, of the bicycle club here, has arrived home from Indianapolis where he met Secretary Lee, of the the Crawfordeville club. Mr. Lee said the attacks in the Crawfordsville papers on the Terre Haute club were entirely unauthorized and were regretted that Crawfordsville was desirous of continuing the friendly relations between the two clubs, and that the Crawfordsville boys would ask of the Terre aute club that the unfortunate mistake be overlooked. This coming from Mr. Lee differs greatly from remarks coming from other members of the Crawfordsville club, but will probably be accepted as apology for very

Bhabby

and ungentle-

manly treatment. Cory Wilmot rode his bicycle across the I. & St. L. railroad bridge on Sunday. He rode between the two rails on the ties, a feat that but few would like to undertake.

A bicyclist? who was too frealy using the sidewalk on north Sixth street on Sunday, was knocked otf his wheel for running too close to a gentleman.

Tito ltest in the Valley.

Oakland Pilot: The Terre Haute Express is undoubtedly the best daily paper published in the Wabash valley. It is thoroughly and agressively Republican, is sound on the tariff issue, and contains all the latest political news. It presents in a concise manner all the political news and without "padding." The Express is a paper for everybody, and its popularity is daily increasing.

Rockville Republican: The Terre Haute Express is by far the best daily in the Wabash valley—so far ahead of all others, in fact, that they are not even in sight.

Mr. Randall is Better.

Washington,

July 1G.—Mr. Randall is

reported much better to-night, and it was said at his house that this was the best day he had experienceed since he was taken ill. While very weak, he is gaining in strength each favorable day and his face is beginning to assume its natural color. Although nothing can be predicted as to the future the family are very hopeful. He ate with great relish to-day some herring and buttered toast, the first solid food he has taken since his illness.

Thinning Out Grapes.

Upon this subject an exchange remarks that most of the valuable grapes are inclined to bear too much, and over cropping is not only against the size and quality of the fruit but against the vine, exhausting it.more or less, and unfitting it for future bearing. Pruning

helps in the reduction of the super abundant crop but even after the pruning has been done, too much fruit is often set to be matured perfectly. The remedy for this is thinning the bunches. This is to be done as soon as the growth is far enough ad vanced to show the young fruit, or just after the blossoms have fallen. It may even be done before this, as soon as the clusters can be seen and this is the time preferred by many. In the first place, every cluster which is small or imper feet, or part tendril, should be taken off. In the second place many varieties will put out three or four clusters from the same bub, in addition to these imperfect ones, and one or two of these perfect clusters should be cut off.

As a general rule two first-class clus ters are enough to be left on one cane or bud for, as is well known, the fruit is borne near the base of the new canes which have put out, each from a bud formed on the last season's canes, half or more of which previous year's growth was (or should have been) cut off in the fall or spring pruning. This leaves two clusters on each new cane, sometimes three, but two are generally enough except for very strong-growing sorts This prevents overloading the vine, and the fruit so allowed to remain becomes finer and the strength of.'thevine to bear future crops is not impaired.

THE "QUEEN CITY'S" SHOW.

Telling: the Itecord of an Eventful Century

Cincinnati is all excitement. Her Centennial Exposition is "on." It is a celebration of one hundred days and.nights in honor of the one hundredth anniversary of the settlement of the Ohio Valley, and designed to show the rapid progress made in one hundred years since the first white man trod her soil. Her citizens subscribed a million and fifty thousand dollars to defray expenses, and with part of this sum immense buildings have been erected, which in conjunction with permanent Music hall, which cost a million dollars, and is capable of holding 8,000 people, furnisheB nearly 900,000 square feet of space, all under one continous roof, covering an area of forty-three acres.

A dozen states are officially interested in the enterprise, the general Government has sent a magnificent collection of curios from Washington City, and in fact every detail has been carried out on the most liberal scale. The attractions embrace elegant displays in Horticulture, Agriculture, Machinery, Textile Fabrics, Educational, Woman's and Children's Departments, an Art Gallery made up of the masterpieces of the most celebrated artists, obtained from private galeries in all sections of the land and all valued at 81,500,000, and an electrical display in and about the vast series of buildings on a scale of profuseness and brilliancy never seen in this country before. As the railroads have reduced their fares to low excursion rates, Cincinnati, for the next four months, will be a busy scene.
