Thomas came up from La fayette Friday morning in his auto, to look over the Wetheral farms here, and expected to go back as far as Chalmers the same day. What wheat we have is looking good thus far, and Unless something unforseen overtakes it, the yield will be good. War, Lehman has about the smallest field yet, it looks about the best of aaiy. Jake Packer went to Attica Thursday to take treatment at the springs. He is Afflicted with yellow jaundice, and has tried nearly every remedy imaginable Without any lasting relief. Some doctors say Bis oase is hopeless, others say a cure is possible. It is certainly a dreadfully annoying disease, as the poor man digs himself with his finger nails almost incessantly. The eclipse of the sun Thursday evening was plain to be seen by use of a smoked glass. It has been a number of years since the total eclipse of the sun, but we are told by the older ones that it occurred about 4 p. m., and the chickens Went to roost as if it was night. As the sun is 92 million miles away, the planets are only visible when passing between us and the sun. “What is so rare as a day in June,” when strawberries are ripe and a good patron brings out a heaping dish of the big red juicy berries for the mail k man’s dinner? Such was the joyous experience of the writer a few days ago. Strawberries are a luxury that every farmer should have, and could have at a comparatively low £ost, as it doesn’t require only a small patch of ground to produce an abundance of berries if properly cultivated. The Moffitt dredge encountered solid rock Friday only about 900 feet from starting point. The specifications call for a depth of five feet and some inches where the rock is, and th6y were only able to go three feet and only have eighteen inches of water, when it-takes three feet of water to float the boat. They abandoned the work Friday afternoon awaiting the action of the. ditch superintendent, Price, as their specifications calls fqr all clear digging. It is said that the surveyor tested the depth of the rock every hundred feet through this same spot, and did not find any rock short of seven feet. If his test was true, then the rock has surely risen nearer the surface since that time. An insanity inquest was held on the person of John Tigler Thursday at the home of his son, August. The Inquest was held by Squire C. W. Bussell, Trustee Geo. Parker and Drs. Washburn, of Rensselaer, and Kelsey, of Francesville. Mr. Tigler has acted strangely for some time and it is claimed by the relatives has become dangerous and unmanageable of late. Last fall he suffered a sunstroke while in’Francesville one day and was unable to come home for several days, and, according to the testimony given, his mind has been fast failing ever since. He was adjudged Insane, and was committed to the Jail at Rensselaer the same evening, until application could be made for his acceptance at Longcliff. He is 76 years old and has two children, one son, August, with whom he has made his home, and Mrs. W. A Baker, of Fowler.

Wrens Hand Wolcott A Large Goose Egg.

Playing like world’s champions, the Wrens whitewashed their old hoodoos from Wolcott Sunday, and the fans present treated to some ball playing such as has not been seen here for many moons. The score,, Was 16 to 0. Every Wren was on the job, and fielding like leaguers and batting like fiends they didn’t gfte Wolcott a lookin. Hanks received fine support, only two errors, neither costly, being made by his teammates. He pitched as fine a game as any fan has witnessed for many a day, striking out five men and allowing only two hits and one base on balls. Only thirty-one men faced him. Mort Dyer, who pitched the first six innings for the visitors, was wild and passed seven men, besides allowing seven hits. The game, on account of the onesided score, was not very interesting, but the crowd was brought to its feet at different stages by the sensational fielding of the Wrens. In the second inning Wilcox robbed Hemphill of what seemed to be a sure hit. Hemphill came to bat and dropped a fly over behind first, but Wilcox ran with the speed of a deer and picked the ball out of the air on the run. Kepner made a sensational catch in deep left in the seventh: Shulte hit a long fly over behind short and Kepner made a hard run to get under it, but when the hall started down it made a freak curve and Kepner, not having time to shift his position, speared It with bis bare hand. Rensselaer bagged the game in the first inning, getting six scores, which proved to be about five more than was needed to win. Kevin, our new third baseman, was out, Shulte -to Spencer; Bachant was safe on Crammer’s fumble of his bunt and went to second when Dyer let McLain safe by another fumble. Morgan was safe because Dyer had nervous hesitation and didn’t know where to throw the ball. “Baba” Parks then stepped up and lammed a single to left which scored Bachant and McLain. Dyer tried to catch “Babe” napping then and Spencer muffed this throw and let Morgan in and put Parks on second. Parks stole third and Hanks walked, and got to second when Parcells was safe on Spencer’s error. Wilcox then came to bat and hit a single "to center and three more birds romped home. Kepner was out Dyer to Spencer, and Spencer put Kevin out unassisted. Dyer winged Hanks In the third, Parcells sacrificed him to second, and he scored on Wilcox’s hit to left. The Wrens got three more in the fourth on a hit and a stolen base by Kevin, a base on balls, an error, and a two-bagger by Morgan to center. In the sixth they got four more by two

men being passed, four stolen bases, two errors, and ’ hits by Hanks aifß Parcells. Wolcott then changed twlrlers, but they all looked alike to the Wrens and they got two more runs in the seventh. There is no story to tell of Wolcott’s batting, they only got two hits and were lucky to do that.

Parcells handled the ball nicely on short, and Morgan did well on first with his bum finger. The diamond has been put in shape for some fast fielding and the Wrens certainly did it Sunday. If you want to see some real hall playing come out next Sunday. It is uncertain as yet wno the visitors will be, but U will be Oxford or some other team of their calibre, and if we win we will have to go some, and the game will certainly be a dinger.
