The meeting was to hear of efforts

being made in the cause of prison reform. Among those who were to speak was Julia Kennard, a lady who had

been convicted of killing her uncle with a hatchet and had served twelve

years in prison. When the speakers

came on to the platform, I picked her out at once by the lines of suffering on her face. I watched her closely, ques

tioning myself as to her bearing If

which it was intended to express, and what she said was of interest. Her

voice was feminine, melodious and did not Impress me unpleasantly, as the voices of women public speakers usually do. On the contrary, it won me. She was evidently a worker in the

cause of prison reform and gave results of her labors interspersed with a

something, poling out a pretty double. Behringer lined a hard one to Squibb who mussed it. Linderbeck then bunted. Fisher fielded the bunt to Cameron to nail Linderbeck and Cameron relayed it back to Jessup to catch Nash who was disarranging the landscape in a slide for the plate. The throw was low and Nash tallied. Burns bunted to Fireman Fisher who

threw him out at first. Way then came to bat and flew out to Ritter, allowing Behringer to score on the play. The inning closed by Pierce's pop up to Justice. In the last of the fifth after Wiltermood and Fisher had been extinguished, Ritter drew his base and counted on Cameron's sharp double. Justice ended the inning by dying on an infield play. Neither side scored In the sixth. The game was called in the first of the seventh after Behringer had singled and Linderbeck had

drawn a base on an error. Score:

In speaking of the assault, Mr. Dar

by stated that he cared but little for fthe blows which were directed against

(him, but it was the cowardly manner

In which he was attacked. He little

suspected that Gordon would

make such an attack and It was the lost confidence which hurt him more

than the blow which Gordon directed

.against him. He said that he had al-

any hold upon her the amelioration of the condition of prisoners. She never

spoke of her own case except in rola

tiou to this object. I w-aited to hear

her mention some incident that tended

to show her Innocence, but no refer-

ever ence to the Justice or injustice of her

conviction ever came from her lips.

One day I said to her:

BASEBALL GOSSIP. (By Tort.)

Richmond has a strenuous week beginning today. Here is the schedule Manager Jessup has arranged. Sunday Piqua here. Monday At Portland. Tuesday At Van Wert, Ohio.

Wednesday At Van Wert, Ohio. Thursday Portland here. Friday Kokomo here. Saturday Kokomo here. Sunday Springfield here. The Springfield team which plays here next Sunday, is not the league team, but 13 known as the Springfield Athletics. A good game is booked for this afternoon. Richmond will tangle up with the Piqua independent team, which has just recently organized and is said to be playing a fast article of ball. The game will be called promptly at 3 o'efock. Meadowbrook Flem

ing will be in the box for the locals and he will try to cop out his fourth straight victory. Sporting Editor of Palladium: As a loyal rooter of the local team I would suggest that if Manager Jessup is unable to add good batters to his team that he try to make what players he now has, good batters. I think that if the men were compelled to put in a couple of hours batting practice each morning, it would do wonders toward trimming up the batting eyes. Good hitting Is what the. fans enjoy and it helps a whole lot in winning games. Yours H. M. R.
