Iu the High School Freshmen-Gar-field meet at Earlham Saturday the vounger bovs had no ti-ouble iu land ing first place, the final score being 72 to Gl in their favor. The record smashing was very light and while all records arc very good 'there are no exceptionally fine ones on either side. The usual surprises were sprung in individual events, "dark horses" playing a prominent part. The net results were in accordance with the general forecasts, the interclass Garfield meet a few weeks before showing the ability of the (iarfield athletes. Good Crowd. A srood sized crowd was present and the grand stand was a mass of banners and colors. Over live hundred were present, the majority being high school adherents. The track and field were in excellent condition and with the exception of a sti'ong westerly wind that had a good deal to do with the time made, the day was fine.

LOGANSPORT RICHMOND PENNSY'S WENT TO PIECES AFTER HAVING THE GAME WELL IN HAND. GAME SLOW AND NO SENSATIONS A Pitchers' Battle Chiefly Richmond Outplayed Logansport at Every Point. After having the game well in hand, in the eighth inning the Richmond Panhandle team relaxed their efforts, and, through brilliant playing on the part of Logansport and a rank muff on the part of a Richmond boy, the locals lost to the Logansports. The Panhandle league did not st'artout Richmond, to say the least, and the players are "sore." The game was not what would be called a "fast and exciting" one, nor Aas the crowd especially large, tlu? ratio being about one spectator to two players, but all seemed to enjoy the game. For want of a better occupation the grandstand (or the first row), employed itself by using the hammer on "Doc" McKinley, the umpire, but the latter was proof and the caustic remarks burned not. For the first few innings every one batted as they pleased; fouls and hits followed last, and a general niies was in progress. Hn the fifth (Continued on Page Two.)

AN IMPORTANT COMMUNICAi. TION ON THE SUBJECT BY LEADING CITIZENS The Pacts in the Situation Set Forth Some Figures Given.

The following communication was written for the Palladium and addressed to the citizens of Richmond: There are a few facts regarding the petition of the Fifth Ward that it be declared a residence portion of the city, by the city council, that have never been brought before the people, and they are facts that the people have a right to know and should know. There are 70S voters in the Fifth Ward. Of this number 59G have signed a petition asking council to exclude saloons from their ward. Th number of petitioners constitute about six-sevenths of the entire vote of the ward. This entire ward is distinctively a residence ward; no section of the city is more so. Counci has the right, under the Moore law, to so declare it, and in the face of such an overwhelming demand of the Fifth Ward, it has the duty to so de dare it. The Pennsylvania railroat" inns through the fifth ward, and tin two saloons which when their licenses expire next year will be affected by council's action are situated north of that railroad. Certain wily opponents of the voters of the Fifth ward, have therefore suggested that council sim ply declare the south portion of tl. ward a residence portion, and say nothing regarding the north part. To cover lip this very apparent sham tfiesV gentlemen have given as a reason for such action, that a majority of the petitioners live south of the (Continued on fifth page.)

D. & W. KILLED AM OLD IAN JOSEPH SCHOTT, WHILE INTOXICATED, STRUCK AND KILLED BY D. & W. CAR. i HAD BEEN AT EATON And Was Returning to the Infirmary, His Home, When the Patal Accident Occurred.

(Special to the Palladium.) Eaton, Ohio, June 5. Another awful tragedy has happened on the Dayton & Western traction line, with an aged veteran as the victim of the "fatal intcrurban." Joseph Schott, of the Montgomery county infirmary, came here intending to have a holiday yesterday. He had it, and injoyed it, too, and in the evening, when he returned home via intcrurban he had difficulty in preserving the per- ' PeiKcu'ar to nn extent that gathered a crowu around Dim. i He had been set mi" iv l ne novs nere in return i for his tales, and was primed to the muzzle with firewater. He boarded tin interurban here, intending to return to the infirmary, but his brains were slightly muddled and instead he alighted near a little village known as Kingsville. He wandered around there for ; while, amusing the village boys, and then wandered out on the track, intending to board another interurban and return to the home. Either the motorman. who was going at a fast rate of sneed. did not see j him in time, or for some other reason the car struck the soldier with fearfnl fnrcnj throwing him under th wteelsaiidi hv wa . j im inuunuan wwciauiis ;njfv Know-,; ledge of Schott's being on the track, and the o'd man must have loomed up before the car so suddenly that there was not time to put on the brakes. The remains were taken to the infirmary todav. 0, RDSHVILLE 7 Locals Lost a Slow Game to Their Rnshville Opponents. (Special to the Palladium.) Rushvill?, Ind., June 6.
