Burgess struck out seven of the local swattists, but the moist ball caused hini to be libera! with transportation to first. Rodenbach, for the locals, pitched a splendid game. Only five hits were made off of him and he had the slugging visitors hitting his dinks up in the air to the infielders most of the time. Burns Made Good. Burns, the new outfielder signed to take Durham's place in left field, was on hand and played at first in place of the crippled Mr. Cameron. Burns played a splendid game, accepting all his chances in an easy manner, worked Mr. Burgess for two passes, got a base hit and a hit in the slats, which also netted a base. Billy Meredith started j the game at short, but his gimpty leg caused him to retire in favor or bcnat tel. who was working in left field A plow horse reclined on Meredith's legf" Saturday while he was carpentering its teeth. Billy used several pounds; of his best live sIock liniment on the injured member, but to no avail.

The turnout of fans at Athletic park Sunday was an ample proof that Richmond is a trifle touched in the head by the national game. Fifteen hundred fanatics, about half of them armed with rain sticks, saw the game despite the fact that the wet came down in torrents during the opening spasm of the contest. The Muncie cutup held down the bench for the visitors Sunday. He was brim full of cute sayings and his frog horn voice made airy parsiflaga audible all over the lot.

HORSE WAS STOLEN; DBIKEIJO DEATH Animal Found in Great Agony North of the City Sun-, day Morning.
OWNED IN HENRY COUNTY. TAKEN FROM A HITCH RACK IN NEW CASTLE SATURDAY NIGHT TH ERE IS NO CLUE TO THE THIEF. A horse and buggy stolen about 11 o'clock Saturday night at New Castl.-?, while hitched in front of a business house, was found Sunday morning oa the road in the river bottoms just north of this city, near the Henley farm. A short time after the horse had been found It died in terrible agony, from colic, brought on by hard . ! lives on the Henley farm, heard horse groaning as he was walking along the river road. He hurried to the place where he heard the groans j and saw a black mare lying in a ditch at the side of the road near a fence. Close by the horse stood the buggy, J y, a cr'aThe harness was inside the niud-spia..-i tered rig, together with an overcoat. lap robe and two or three small articies. A few minutes after Mr. Hodgin found the dying animal. Dr. Ferlin?, j veterinary, drove past and he at once j recognized that the mare was in a s.i rious condition. He and Mr. Hodgin ; led the animal to the Henley farm where it was given treatment. Dr. Ferling then drove to police headquarters to ask if they had been notified of a horse theft. The chief said that ( . he had just received a long distance v telephone message from New Castle M'that a black mare belonging to John 1 i Brenemen had been stolen Friday night. Dr. Ferling then told the chkf -j about finding a mare answering the 3 ; description and Bailey drove to the Henley farm with Dr. Ferling. On arriving there it was found the animal was ueau. The sheriff of Henry county arrived here and Mr. Brenemen identified the rig, which had been taken to a local livery barn, as his. He states that the mare was quite a valuable animal. his son drove the mare to New Castle and left her hitched in front of a store about ! o'clock. When he returned the mare and the buggy were missing. There is absolutely no clue as to who! the horse thief is. G. A. R. HEADQUARTERS TOJFDRT WAYNE They Will Be Moved From Indianapolis, Wednesday.

PROCLAMATION FOR MEMORUSERVMCE Governor Hanly Sends Document From Atlantic City.
WOULD STOP BUSINESS. Governor Hanly has sent from Atlantic City his Memorial day proclamation. In it he says: Since the civil war a generation has been born and reared and is now nearing the zenith of its power. This generation will soon govern the country make its laws and interpret and execute them and administer Its affairs. The beneficiaries of one hundred and thirty years of unexampled sacrifices, transcendent services and ex alted devotion, love of country and of freedom and thankfulness to tho?e who founded and to those who pre served the government, should impel us to make acknowledgment of our obligation, give expression to our gratitude and renew the covenants of our citizenship. Moved by this thought, in compliment to the living soldiery of the Republic, and pursuant to custom grown sacred as the love we bear the martyred dead, I, J. Frank Hanly, governor of the state of Indiana, do hereby designate and set apart, Thursday, May 30th. 1907. as Memorial day, and proclaim the same a legal holiday throughout said state. Universal observation of the day is recommended and urged. Public offices should be closed. Business should be suspended and toil discontinued. Frivolous and noisy amusements should be avoided and the law respected. PLEASING SALE OF MAY FESTIVAL SEATS Demand Came Up to Most Confident Expectations. GOOD SEATS ARE LEFT. The. plat for the May Festival was opened to the public this morning at the coliseum for the reservation of season tickets and the result more than came up to the finest expectations of the executive committee of the Festival Association. More resernations had been niado up to 12 o'clock today than had been recorded at the opening concert of last year's festival. However, despite the very large sale, there are many good seats left, especially on the lower floor, which by musicians is declared to be the most desirable location in the coliseum. The plat from this time forward will be found at the warerooms of the Starr Piano Company, Main and Tenth streets. COMBS FAMILY HAS MANY MISFORTUNES Members Are Figuring Much In Police Court. MOTHER AT THE HOSPITAL. Roy Combs is under arrest on a charge of petit larceny. The young man is accused of stealing a watch from his mother, Mrs. Joseph Combs, who is now quite ill at the Reid hospital. If Mrs. Combs refuses to prosecute her son the charge against him probably will be dismissed. The Combs family has been most unfortunate here of late and has figured considerably in police court transactions. Joseph Combs was arrested some weeks ago for assault and battery on his wife, who was ill when the assault took place. The case against Combs was dismissed and a short time later Roy Comb3, a son, was arrested for creating domestic troubles. This charge was also dismissed. Joseph Combs is now employed at Hamilton and when the mother was sent to the hospital, Roy and the other t children secured places to board. Iast week Roy broke into the home and, it is charged, stole his mother's watch. Information was furnished to the police by one of the boy's sisters. Music by H. S. Orchestra. Music for the V. M. C. A. banquet to be held Tuesdaj' night at Reid Memorial church, will be furnished by the High School orchestra. CONDUCTOR LUDLOW IS CONFINED TO HOME.

MONOPOLIZATION OF 0ILBUS1NESS Official Report on the Standard Filed by Commissioner of Corporations.
A DOZEN MEN IN CONTROL. IT IS FOUND THAT RATE DISCRIMINATION IS THE WORST OF THE MANY EVILS THAT EXIST. Washington, May 20 That the his tory and present operation of the Standard Oil interest "shows throughout the last thirty-five years a substantial monopolization of the petroleum industry of the country, a delib erate destruction of competition and a consequent control of that industry by less than a dozen men, who have reaped enormous profits therefrom," largely through abuse of transporta tion facilities, is charged in a report just submitted to President Roosevelt by Commissioner of Corporations Herbert Knox Smith. Part one of the report was made public today, and other parts will follow. Certain information acquired is withheld for the present, in accordance with instructions of the President, who feels that their publication might interfere with the prosecution of the Government's suits pending against the Standard Oil Company, and its subsidiary companies. The report contains the net results of a study of the petroleum business during the year 1904. It is the first official statement of the operations and methods of the Standard Oil Company by which, the report states, through "scandalous railway discriminations," and other unlawful devices, they have secured and maintained an "exclusive domination of the petroleum Industry." COOPLE ARE CHARGED WITH WRONG CONDUCT Mrs. Lottie Ott and Harry Millert Under Arrest. TRIAL IS NOT YET SET. Mrs. Lottie Ott and Harry Millert are under arrest on a charge of living together as man and wife. They will be arraicned in the city court some day this week. Mrs. Ott probably will enter a plea of not guilty and has retained an attorney to defend her. Friday Millert was arrested at the home of the young woman's parents and Saturday night Mrs. Ott was taWen into custody. Mrs. Ott separated from her husband over a year ago. Shortly after her separation, the girl s father complained to the police over the attentions young Millert was showing his daughter. Millert then weat to Dayton and Mrs. Ott followed him. The latter part of last year Millert and Mrs. Ott went to Detroit, where they lived about five months. Mrs-. Ott recently returned to her home and was followed here by Millert, She an! her two months' old baby are at tho Home for the Friendless awaiting trial.

FIRST ENGLISH SERVICE. That In Virginia Three Hundred Years Ago Was Earliest In America. The three hundredth anniversary of the establishment on American soil of Christian services In the English language Is to be celebrated during the coming summer and fall. When the pioneers who founded Jamestown, Va., sailed up the James river In May, 1600, they erected a tent on landing and, nailing a rude board between the trees, made a reading desk for their chaplain, the Rev. Robert Hunt, a courageous TOWEE OF OLD CHTBCH AT JA.MESTOWX. clergyman of the Church of England. In this elementary structure the first service In the English tongue on Amer .... ...

At the end of a discussion on gambling he said the other day: "Never play for a stake If you hae children, and never say to your partner in any case at the end of the gam, 'If you had done this or that the outcome would have been different. Whenever I have a partner of the '!f you had' kind I think of the great Cavendish. "When a partner said to him, 'If you had done so-and-so we'd have made so-and-so, he always replied: " 'Did you ever hear the story of your uncle and your aunt? "If the player had heard it he would at once become silent, not wishing to bear it again. If he had not heard It he would paue in hit postmortem of the game and say: No. Tell it to me.

A dear old New England ppinstrx, the embodiment of tbe timid and shrinking, passed away at Carlsbad, where she had gone for her health. Her nearest kinsman, a nephew, ordered her body sent home to be burled as was her last wish In the quiet little country churchyard la Massachusetts. Ills surprise can be ImaglnM when on opening the casket he beheld, instead of the placid features of bis Aunt Mary, the majestic port of an English general In full regimentala, whom he remembered had chanced to die at the same time and place as his aunt. At once he cabled to the general's heirs explaining the situation and requesting instructions. They came back as follows: Glv the general quiet funeral.
