CLEVELAND WHITEWASHED Indianapolis Gives a Great Exhibition of Perfect Fielding and Pitching. t)nlj One Clean Hit Made Off Boyle's Delivery Bafcely's Work in the Box Also Creditable Kain at Other Points Racing. BASE-BALL. A Drllllant Game at Cleveland, In Which Indianapolis Did the Bent Flaying. Epeclal to tiio Indianapoli Journal. Cleveland, O., July SI. The Indianapolis ball team did remarkable work gainst the Cleveland to-day in the final fight of the series, and by playing not only "fcn errorless but a brilliant game from start to finish, shut the Leaguo infants out in cne of the finest contests ever seen . on the local grounds. Though the Cleveland players failed to score a run the defeat was not one that will cast discredit upon them, for they made a stubborn effort , to win, and that they did not do so "was because not a team in the country coald havo won against such pitching and fielding as the Iloosiers did. Boyle's work was of the highest order, and the support given him was no less . brilliant. Tha local men only made one clean and one scratch hit, and had butliitle Bhow to score at any stage of the game. At critical points Boyle was invincible, none of the Infants being able to get the ball out of the diamond. Ho had fine com mand and terrific speed. - The Hoosier infield played one of its old timo games, Denny's third-base play being the feature t of the contest. He not only had numerous chances, but several of them -were very difficult, and his fine stops of apparently safe hits seemed to discourage the local . Tl 11 , A ' 1 4 1 . men. liUCKiey s caicu:ug was aiso ui mo lest kind, and the -whole team played a brisk and dashing game. The only run of the contest was secured by clever "sacrifice hitting and good work on tho lines. TLe victory was not easily won, however, for Bakely pitched a line game, and the tearu behind him did splendidly. Abase nn 1ia1I tn Snllivnn xvawflin rpiil Ptumn nf the Iloosiers' success. McAieer was the only Cleveland player who got as far as third base, and no one else got past first, 'either of the men who were given their base on balhnvere able to reach second, Jiadford tried to steal once, but was promptly thrown out by Buckley. As McAleerwastho only man who hit safe, he, of course, was the only one who reached first, with the exception of Kadford and Zimmer, they getting their base on balls. In five of the innings Cleveland wai retired in order. The Iloosiers made the only run of the eauio in the second. Sullivan, the first batter, was sent to first on balls. Buckley made a clever sacrifice hit, advancing him a base. McGeachy fiew out to McKean, but Bassett. after two strikes had been called on him, drove the ball down the right field line, and Sullivan crossed the . plate. McKeau's fumble of Boyle's grounder tent Bassett to third, but the same player made a brilliant catch of Seery's short fiy to center, saving another run. Bassett made his second hit in the fifth, but was doubled up with Boyle on the latter's grounder to McKean. Seery went to first on balls, but Glasscock was retired. After Buckley had been put out in the seventh McCeachy sscureda single, but was caught trying to steal second and Bassett struck UUt. The only chance the Clevelands bad to score was in the seventh inning, when McAieer icu on witn a smgie past uiasscocic. lcKean's sacrifice 6ent him to second and Twitchell's out advauced him to third. The crowd called upon Tebeau to make a fcit, and no doubt he tried to do so. but his line . lly to McGoachy was nicely taken. Zim- . juer got his ba&e on balls in tho eighth, after two were out. but Bakely failed to knock the ball past Boyle, and was an ensy out. The side was retired in order in the ninth. The Cleveland people are hard losers, and to-day's crowd was very much disgusted with the result ol the game. The Hoosier Mves, and Manager Glasscock is working .like a Trojan for the club.

Governor Hovey, accompanied hy his private secretary, Mr. , Roberts, left for Plainfield yesterday afternoon, and tho Capitol building would havo been empty of elected State officers but for the return of Secretary of State Griffin from Danville," and the presence of Clerk W. T. Noble, of the Supreme Court. The building is the coolest place in the city, barring tho iceliouses, and Custodian Griffin thinks a man could be frozen to death if he could bo kept a sufficient length of time before tho ventilator fans. It was expected that the work of regrading the grounds, for which the Legislature made an appropriation of 7,000, would be done this season, but there is some doubt about its being finished this year, owing to tho scarcity of funds. The stone wall around the grounds, which now only serves to reduce the etlect of height in the building, and to support the anatomies of citizens who lind it superior to a double spring-mattrass on summer afternoons, will be removed, and the lawns will be eraded down to tho street line when the work is iinished. Sanitation in the Schools. The State Board of Health is sending out circulars to all county superintendents of schools in the State, and these circulars, with the county superintendent's signature appended, will serve as directions to township trustees. The requirements are that all school buildings shall be placed in good repair and supplied with pure water and seats of different heights, to suit the different ages of pupils.

A Flail of Destruction. Secretary Heron, of the State Board of Agriculture, received as a contribution to the agricultural museum, yesterday, a Hail which bears little resemblance to the "shadowy flail' mentioned by Milton. The staff, which is of hickory, lookslikea small wagon tougne, and the club, of tho same wood, is too heavy to be used as a base-ball bat under the new regulations. The donor is S. W. Hayes, of Sullivan county, who went it by express, and the company's ageuts billed it as two sticks of lumber. Articles of Incorporation.

James W. Smith, who stabbed himself in Judge McConned's court a few days ago, upon conviction of assaulting his adopted daughter, was in a comfortable condition last night, with good chances for recovery. The sick man talked freely of his case. "I suppose 1 did wrong in making an attempt on my life,' he haid. T could not bear up under dishonor. I havo lived an honest and upright life, and would rather die than continue to live und';r such disgrace. Before God in heaven, 1 uiu innocent. Mi' wife confessed her re

I am sure of that; but she wanted to drive me away. ene has repented ot ner guilt anu suuereu terribly. She has promised to make what amends she can, and, when 1 am well, will give evidence that will prove my innocence." A HUMAN SALAMANDER. How a Mining Expert Removed the Cap of a 'Burning (ias Well and Earned $1,000. Rutiivax, Out., July 31. Nearly three weeks ago the Ruthvan gas well was set afire, it is supposed by some disgruntled laborer. The cap over tho top of the pipo was so fixed that tho escaping gas rushed out directly toward tho ground and made safe approach impossible. The roar could be heard in Kingsville, three miles away. Local mechanics found it impossible to remove tho cap. The heat was simply uneudurablo and grew worse every day. Gas experts from Ohio wero called to the scene, but they, too,, gave it . up. Tho ground around the well became baked, and when workmen tried to cool it with a stream from it lire-engine the water went up in a cloud of steam before it had fairly struck tho ground. All idea of cooling ofi the ground was given up. The owners of the well offered $1,000 to any one who would remove the cap. William H. Marvin, a mining expert, who had some acquaintance with natural gas, undertook tho job. He tried several schemes for removing tho cap by aid of a long lever, but they all failed for the reason that his lever would melt away under the fierce heat as soon as he got it near enough to work. Ho determined to go near the well himgelf and cut off the cap. It looked liks certain death for any one to approach the well, and even tho owner advised Marvin to give up the idea. He made a suit of asbestos that was unique in its way. It was his purposo to go right up to the well. through tho gas llame, and place a cold chisel against the pipo while his assistant pouuded on tho chisel until tho cap gave way. t The first attempt was a signal failure. Marvin only reached tho llame when he retreated, lie had worn a heavy pair of cowhide boots covered with wet cloths, but before ho got to the llame tho cloth had dried and burned away, and his boots were half burned off. So great was his hurry to escape that he dropped his cutting contrivance, and was dismayed to see it get redhot beforo his eyes. For his next trial he 'wore a pair of rubber boots, and inside these thrust his feet wound in dampened rags. Outside the boots he put a heavy covering of asbestos. His coat of asbestos was cone shaped. . His arms stuck out through two holes in the cone, and were wound in several thicknesses of wet cloth, which was covered with a heavy coating of asbestos. His contrivance for cutting tho pipe consisted of a long and very sharp chisel, fastened at right angles, to an iron staff. In approaching the well he slid tho cone along the ground, seeing his way through a glass set in the front. His assistant was robed like himself and carried a long iron bar, on which was fastened a small farrier's hammer. Two hundred men saw the daring men make this approach to the flame, and as Marvin disappeared in its circle a shudder swept over the onlookers. There were not a half dozen in the crowd that ex pected to see Marvin come out alive, but in a second that seemed like an age they saw the edge of the chisel resting up against the pipe, just below tho cap. Almost breathlessly they watched tho assistant make a stroke at the chisel in a clumsy kind of a way. He did not hit it. The sec ond trial was more successful: he hit the chisel squarely but lightly. The cone in the ring of hre was wavered, and a cry of "He's burned to death" went uu on all sides. The cone moved again, the chisel fell, and the people could fee that Marym was comingout. Everybody thought that he had given up in sheer despair, but not so. lie had come . . -WW ont oi the tire to get rest and air. lie was nearly suffocated. When the cone was liftefoff Marvin, for he was too weak to lift it off himself, he ws a sieht to behold. His face was scarlet and his eyes protruded like door knobs. He was half roasted, and it took him two hours to recover. Then he pluckilv determined to try it again. His cone was thoroucMy wet and he fixed up another chisel, saying, as the cone was put over him, that he'would succeed or never comn out alive. Tho crowd cheered him and then watched him approach certain success or death. Aicuin the hammer and chisel were brought into play and little by little the people could see that the mans skill and pluck would win. All at once the roar of the well changed to a shrill whistle and the cap was blown a hundred feet upward. while Marvin's cone stood at the foot of the pipe motionless. It was some minutes be fore it moved and the people thought again that he had perished in his attempt. His assistant was badly burned and had to be taken to tho hotel for assistance. When Marvin's cone began to move the people sent up a tremendous snout, and the more ventursome ran as far as they could on the hot Ground to reach him. He was taken out and revived, badly scorched, but not hurt otherwise. Marvin had earned his 1.000. This after noon Marvin put a contrivance on the pipe to shut oil the flow of gas, and now. for the first time in nearly three weeks, Ruthvan is quiet from the deafening roar. Marvin's cap is shaped like the latter 1. and was placed on the pipe after three trials. The company estimato that over 11,000,000 icet of g;is has been consumed each day. Marvin said to-day that it was the nearest to death he ever expected to be until his time came. "Every breath,' he said, 'seemed to burn like fire, and twice I nearly fainted. My month was so parched that 1 could not even moisten ray lips with my tongue. The suffering was dreadful, and I would not pass through the experience again for fifty times S1.000. This time, how ever, I was bound to win. Despite my cov ering my body was blistered m several places, and my hands aud arms are one mass of burns. My feet are burtfed as if I had held them in the tire." It will be two weeks before Marvin re sumes his wonted appearance. His lips are badly swollen, ana niseyeorowsand wniskers are entirely eone. Tho trround about tho well is still so hot that no one can walk on it. and it will take three or four days to cool it oil". Marvin's feat is said to be the first successful one of its kind on record. REMARKABLE CASE. A Man Living and Perfectly Conscious with Two Bullets in His Brain. Chicago, July 31. The case of Herman Carman, a wealthy real estate man, who made an unsuccessful attempt to commit suicide yesterday afternoon, is regarded by the doctors as one of the most remarkable of the kind on record. Notwithstanding tho fact that the second bullet fared by the man passed upward through the roof of the mouth and penetrated the brain, he is con scious, and recognizes not only the members of the family, but also the doctors and others whom ho has seen. Ho knows all that is going ou about him, and realizes the enormity of his act. Drs. C. 11. Graves and Webster probed for ltntli tlm li.illt this moruiuir. nnd found thn first bullet, fired Sunday, lodged in the thick bone about tho car; ana tne otner, and the one likely to prove fatal, was found to be in the ion 01 me neaa near me bxuii. The utl'ect of this bullet has been to paralyze tho risht side of the body, and from this fact the doctors know the exact locality of the ball. Dr. Graves says there is but one hope of a complete recovery, and that lies in removing a part of the skull, and taking out the bullet from the brain. The case is considered all the more remarkable from the fact that dnring the two days Mr. Carman carried the first bullet in his head ho partook heartily of food, aud talked with every one in a way not to arouse the slightest suspicions of the family.

DR. EAKTS ECCENTRICITIES.

Two Opinions Held About the Reverend Gentle man's Sanity New Victims Discovered. Ann Arbor, July 31. The incarceration of Rev. Dr. Samuel Earp at the Battle Creek sanitarium is the sole topic of con versation here, and there aro two distinct shades of opinion in the matter. The ma jority beBeve that he is insane, or, at best, a monomaniac, and point to many peculiar facts in support of their theory Others believe that the reverend gentleman has been guilty of gross wrong, and that his eccentricities were put on solely to aid him in securing immunity when the ex posure came. Before leaving for Battle Creek Dr. Earp said that it was nobody's business what he did with his money, but he explained that he had indorsed heavily for his brother in Danville, Pa., and that brother dying suddenly had shifted the 1 . CT " 1 1 TA responsibility upon Jiis suouiuers. uu. Jbarp's brother died in Danville, insolvent, but investigation shows that the estate owed the parson but $700. including all the indorsements. New victims are being discovered hourly. and it is probable that the aggregate amount of Dr. Earp's peculiar acquisitions will reach $50,000. The widows of the city are victims to a great extent. One old woman saved 1,000 with which to pay off .a mortgage on her home. Dr. Earp borrowed 200 of the amount. Mrs. Morris, widow of the late Professor Morns, is an indorser on Earn'snanerfor alarce amount: but the bank failed to notify her and she is relieved of legal obligation. Mrs. Rebecca Henriques is indorser for$7,000 worth or tue fcarp paper held by an ljpsilanti bank. Mrs. Kelly, a widow of very limited means, mourns the loss of $700 loaned to the Doctor. It is reported that the Hobart Hall fund lost $12,000, but this is probably due to the fact that Dr. Earp subscribed that sum and never paid it. ruaiuas uecome 01 me money 1 iuaus the Question. Kecentlv a handsome pulpit was placed in St. Andrew's Church, and Dr. Earp notified the vestry that it was the gift of a friend. It transpires that he borrowed the money and bought it. Elegant curtains were furnished to llobart Hall by a friend. Dr. Earp was the friend, and borrowed money paid for the curtains. A plot of ground adjoining the church was deeded to the parish by a friend. It is now certain that Dr. Earp bought the ground with borrowed monev. However, these are hut trifles and wonld exhaust but a tithe of the monev raised by irrecular methods. He has lived fairly well, but in no sense extravagantly, and his family are moueis 01 economy, ur. Jtarn & resignation has been demanded, to take effect im mediately. The Disabled Feather-Weight. &an Francisco. July 31. After the Murphy prize-fight, last night, the men were taken into a room and examined by a doctor. It was found that Billy Murphy had a fracture of the radius of tho left arm. I rank Murphy claimed that he was badly disabled, but the doctor found no fracture, though the left wrist was swollen and discolored, and there were large lumps over nis lett eye and on the lett ear. Billy Murphy's condition will preclude any possibility of the ficht beine continued for some time, niid referee Cook stated that, as the club did not sanction betting, parties liAvinc waeers could settle the question among themselves.

tho eruptive diseases peculiar to children nothing else is so effective as this medicine, while its agreeable flavor makes it easy to administer. "My little boy liad large scrofulous ulcers on hi neck and throat from which he suffered terribly. Two physicians attended him, but he grew continually worse under their care, and everybody expected he would die. I hart heard of the remarkable cures effected by Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and decided to have my boy try it. Shortly after he begau to take this medicine, tho ulcers commenced healing, and, after using several bottles, he was entirely cured. He is now as healthy and strong as any boy of his age." William F. Dougherty, Hampton, Va. "In May last, my youngest child, fourteen months old, began to have sores gather on its head and body. We applied various simple remedies without avail. " The sores increased in number and discharged copiously. A- physician was called, but the sores continued to multiply until in a few months they nearly covered the child's head and body. At last we bgan the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. In a few days a marked chauge for the better was manifest. The sores assumed a more healthy condition, the discharges wero gradually diminished, aud finally ceased altogether. The child is livelier, its skin is fresher, and its appetite better than we have obnerved for months." Frank M. Griffin, Long Point, Texas. " The formula of Ayer's Sarsaparilla presents, for chronic diseases of almost every kind, the best remedy known to the medical world." D. M. Wilson, M. D., Wiggs, Arkansas. nrnnnnrill a UdlddUdlillu.
