GAS AT WHEATFIELD.

While drilling a well at Wheatfield last Friday quite a flow of gas was struck at a depth of about 50 feet, and when lighted made a brilliant blaze several feSfr in height until smothered out. Many people thereabouts think there is both gas and oil underneath that territory and hope to see ere long a thorough test made in the matter. Agents of the Standard Oil Co., have, it is said, leased considerable territory about Wheatfield lately, which gives strength to the belief of the people that there is oil in the locality.

RENSSELAER VS. RAUB. Remington. Aug. 26, 1898. About one hundred “rooters” went over on Friday last, to help our boys win the big end of SIOO, hung up by the fair association. After considerable effort the management got the crowd back 50 feet from the lines and the game was called at 2:15. Rensselaer won the toss and went to bat. On errors of the pitcher and first baseman and hits by Nairin and Bowen, Rensselaer scored three runs, while Kaub went out 1. 2, 3 in the first. A combination of errors and a hit by Seville gave Rensselaer two in the second, while Raub secured its only run in this inning on hits by Boody and Bowen. Rensselaer was blanked in the 3d and scored three in the 4th and two in the sth. Game was called twice during the five innings played on account of rain. Both teams deserve great credit for pluckily playing five innings in the mud and rain? but therein lay the coming expense- money. Rensselaer won in a walk by the following score: 1 2 3 4 5 Rensselaer, 3 2 0 8 2—lo Raub, 0 10 0 Q— 1 Errors—Rensselaer 2, Raub 10. Base Hits—Renssselaer 7, Raub 2. Bases on balls by Bowen 8, Hoag 2.

The attendance numbered well onto 600. Unions won the toss and took the field. Jack Montgomery held the indicator and called time at 3:10 for the first round, in which Rensselaer went out 1,2, 3. For the Unions Moore made a two. bagger but they failed to score. For Rensselaer in the second It was 1, 2,3, and a slmiliar goose egg was given the Unions. In tbe third Bowen, Hawkins and Brindley struck out for Rensselaer, while Jones, Hop* kins and Holland led off with hits for the Unions a base on balls and a hit by Hyde, they scored three runs. In the first half of fourth Rensselaer went out in order leaving Seville on first. After two men were out on hjts by Jones and Hop* kins and an error by Hawkins, the Unions scored two runs. Burton made a swift single in the fifth and with a sacrifice and base on balls with one out the bases were filled, but Rensselaer failed to score. In the fifth Seville went in to pitch, Nairin to Catch and Dad to first. Moore made a home run, the only score by Unions in the fifth. For Rensselaer in the sixth Joey, Tip and Nairin made singles, Joey scoring, the next three going out. Total—one run. Jones made a single for the Unions but others were blanked and so was the side. \ \ / f Miller, Bowen and Hawkins struck out in the seventh, Wyatt for the Unions made a

In the eighth Rensselaer went out 1,2, 3, whilethe Unions scored another in their half, In the ninth Rensselaer got one hit by Seville but failed to score. Many of those present believed our boys were outplayed but in our opinion if Col, Honan and “Zimmy” had got in the game as usual our boys might have won. On the whole the game was a fine, interesting exhibition. Young Burton, the new acquisition, distlnquished himself as may be seen by the following score: RENSSELAER, B.H. P.O. A. O. R. E. Reynolds.
