The rhilalol phia excnrslonists wade an excursion to-d ty over the Lake Superior find Mississippi Riil oad to Thomson, 24 mUo, for tho purpose of inppecting the celebrated slate mining veins at that point, and viewing the gorgeom soenery along the St. Louis river, particn- laaJy the Dalles or llapids. These extond for miles along the river below Thomson and a short distance above. The bed of the river is of rocky formation, and forms an intermi nable series of shelves or steps, over which the dark-colored water passes and ii enamel into foam. The day commenced very loady and threatening rain, but the excursionists, or about thirty of them, including seven ladies, were not dismayed, and though tho rain fell copiously, they enjoyed the trip very much. Arriving at Thomson, they dined at a tasty little cottage, in which is lo cated the office of Mr. Arnold, tho Superin tendent of the Lake Superior Slate Mining Company. The gentlemen inspected the veins of slate, which, though as yet oonfined to the surface, turn out a very superior de scription of roofing slate. Embarking agaio, the train passed over the bridge over the Dafles, and shortly after passed the junction of the road with the Northern Pacific. The train was taken some distance up the Northern Pacific track, nntil further progress was arrested by a long train of platform cars laden with rails for the present termination of the road. The iron for fifteen miles of track has now reached Dulntb, and the progress of the road will be rtpid. The train being the first containing passengers that had appeared on the Northern Pacific track, was greeted with cheers by the track-layers, who turned out of their houses despite the rain. The ladies in the party are rather proud of having teen on the first passenger train on the Northern Pacific road, and it is fit that their names should be recorded. There were two Misses Pel ton, Miss Moorhoad, Miss Clarke, Miss Badger, Miss Piopkinson, Miss Arnold, aiid Mrs. Fulton. The excursionists reached DuJuth on their return about 3 o'clock. The rain has caused a change in the urrasgements for the reception this even ing of the excursionists from St. Paul, 300 in number, that started for this point. The procession and illumination that had been projected were abandoned. The pas sengers on their arrival disembarked nearly opposite the Clarke House, the front of which was decorated with flags, and the visitors were greeted with the following motto: "The King of Lakes to tho Father of Waters, greeting." A fine band of music accompanied them. They were received with a salute, and the welooming speech by the Mayor (Culver) of Duluth took place at the Clarke Ilouse. His remarks were very happy, and gave due credit to Jay Cooke and the other capitalists of Philadelphia who had aided in the construction of the road and building up Duluth. Mayor Lee, of St. Paul, responded, and was followed by Hon. Ignatius Donnelly, who prophesied that Duluth would yet be come an arm of the Atlantic by the construc tion of ship canals around the Falls of St. Mary and Niagara. Ilia speech was received with great enthusiasm, and the excursionists were properly provided for at the Clarke Ilouse and on board the steamer Winslow. Index. AN EDITOR PLAYS BASE BALL. The delightful and tender game of base ball having broken out with fresh virulence this season, the following sketch is in or der: The doctor said we needed exercise. Doc tor knows. He told us to join base ball: we joined. Bought a book of instructions, and for five days studied it wisely if not too well. Then we bought a sugar-scoop cap, a red belt, a green shirt, yellow trowsers, pumpkin-colored shoes, a paper collar, and a purple necktie, and, with a lot of other dele gates, moved gently to the ground. There were two nines. These nines were antagonists. The ball is a pretty little drop of softness, size of a goose-egg, and five degrees harder than a rock. The two nines play against each other. It is a quiet game, much like chess, only a little more chase than chess. There was an umpire. His position was a hard one. He sits on abox, and yells "foal." His duty is severe. I took the bat. It is a murderous play thing, descended from Pocahontas to the head of John Smith. The man in front of me was a pitcher. He was a nice pitcher, but he sent the balls hot. The man behind me was a catcher. He caught it, too ! Umpire said "play." It is the most radical play I know of, this base-ball. Sawing cord wood is moonlight rambles beside base-ball. So the pitcher sent a ball towards me. It looked pretty coming, so I let it come. Then be sent another. I hat it with the club, and hove it gently upward. Then I started to walk to the first base. The ball hit in the pitcher's hands, and somebody said he caught a fly. Alas, poor fly! I walked leisurely towards the base. Another man took the bat. I turned to see how he was making it, and a mule kicked me on the cheek. The man said it was the ball. It felt like a mule, and I re posed on the grass. The ball went on ! Pretty soon there were two oiore flies, and three of ns flew out. Then the other nine came in, and us nine went out. This was , better. Just as I was standing on my dignity in the left field, a hot ball, as they call it, came skyrocketing towards me. My eaptain yelled, "take it I hastened gently forward to where the ball was aiming to descend. I have a good eye to measure distances, and I saw at a glauce where the little a rolite was to light. I put np my hands. How sweetly the ball de scended ! Everybody looked; I felt some thing warm in my eye. "Muffin !" yelled ninety fellows: "Muffin be d d! It's a cannon ball!" For three days I've hid to pounds of raw beef on that eye, and yet it paineth ! Then I wanted te go home, but my gentle captain said "nay." So I nayed and stayed. I'rttty soon it was my strike. "To bat!" y tiled the umpire. I went, but not all serene, s wis my wont. The pitcher sent in one biprdh. It struck me in tho gullet. "Foal," yelled the umpire. Ho sent in the ball again. This time I took it square and sent it down the right field, through a parlor window, a kerosene lamp, and rip np against the head of an infant who was quietly taking its nap in his or its mother's arms. Then I slung the bat and meandered forth to the first base. I beard high words and looked. When I slung the bat, I had with it broken the jaw of the umpire and was fined ten cents. The game went on. I liked it. It is so much fun to run from base to basejnst in time to be put out, or to chase a ball three fourths of a mile down hill, while all the spectators yell "Muffin!" "go it!" "home run!" "go round again!" or "go round a dozen times!" Base ball is a sweet little game. When it came my turn to bat again I noticed everybody move back about ten rods! The new umpire retreatod twelve rods. He was timid. The pitcher Bent 'em in hot. Hot balls in time of war are good. But I don't like 'em too hot for fun. After a while I got a fair clip at it, and you bet it went cut ting tho daisies down the right field. A fat man and dog sat in the shade of an oak, en joying the game. The ball broke one leg of toe dog, and landed, like a runaway eogine, in the corporosity of the fat man. He was taken home to die. Then I went on a double-quick to the field, and tried to stop a hot ball. It came toward me from the bat at the rate of nine miles a minute. I put np my hands the ball went sweetly singing on it3 way, with all the skin from my palms with it. More raw beef. That was an eventful chap who first in vented base ball. It's such fun. I've played five games, and this is the result: " Twenty-seven dollars paid out for things. One buDged eye badly bunged. One broken little finger. One bump on the head. Nineteen lame backs. A sore jaw. One thumb dislocated. Three sprained ankles. Five swelled legs. One dislocated Bhouldor, from trying to throw the ball a thousand yards. Two hands raw from trying to stop hot balls. A lump the size of a hornet's nest on left hip, well back. A nose sweetly jammed, and five uniforms spoiled from rolling in the dirt at tbo-Jjases. I have played two weeks, and don't tuflnk I like the game. I've looked over tbo scorer's book, and find that I've broken several bats, made one tally, broken one umpire's jaw, broken ten windows in adjoining houses, killed a baby, broke the leg of a dog, mor tally injured the bread-basket of a spectator, knocked five other players out of time by slinging my bat, and knocked the waterfall from a school-marm who was standing twenty rods from the field, a quiet looker-on. I've used up fifteen bottles of arnica lini ment, five bottles of lotions, half a raw beef, and am so full of pain that it seems as if my limbs were but broken bats, and my legs the limbs of a dead horso-chesnut. ANESTHETIC ANECDO TES. A Man Chloroformed nod Robbed on the Street -How It wm Done. The Cincinnati rimes of Thursday says: A respectable looking gentleman called as our oflloe this morning ami told the following story: My name, he said, is Major King. 1 used to live in this city and did busluess here during the years Ism, '55, and '56. A few days Blnee I returned to the city from a lengthy absence in the West, having In my possession a large amount of money. Night be fore last, early in the evening. I was nlavlnir bil liards at Phil. Tieman'a saloon, when a boy handed me a note, signed by a friend's name, requesting me to step out on the sidewalk, as he wanted to see me. 1 Immediately went out, but instead of seeing the friend from whom the note purported to have come, met three men, strangers to me, one of whom, how ever, stepped up, called me by name, grasped my hand, shaking it cordially. This person then intro duced me to the other two men, and a conversation ensued, but upon what subject I do not now re member. During this conversation I became unconscious. When I resumed consciousness I found myself standing on Sixth street, about a square and a half distant from Tleman's saloon. The first thing I re member noticing was a powerful odor of chloro form, which seemed to emanate from my breast. Placing my hand on my shirt front, I louud It satu rated with chloroform. My next thought was of my pocket-book, anH I placed my hands in my pants pockets only to And that they had both been thoroughly silted. The pocket-book contained IlSO. I was so much affected by the influence of the chloroform that I could not remember the name of my hotel. Mr. King further says that he does not remember smelling Die chloroform before he became uncon scious. He thinks he has been followed from the West by a party of villains who knew that he brought with him a large amount of money, which they hoped to obtain in this way. Fortunately he had deposited the most of it In bank immediately after bis arrival in the city. The case is oaeof the most peculiar and mysterious that ever came under our notice. Eiher Turning the Head of Both Murceoo and t Patient A Terrific struggle In the Operating ' 1 linlr. Between 1 and 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, says the Portland (Me.) Anjun of the 25th Inst., Mr. Andrews, of India street, a gentleman of about 55 years, stepped into Dr. Benjamin II. Ordway's oillce, at No. Id Federal street, to have treated a sore on his hand. He saw the doctor then, and fie next time either of the two men are spoken of Is when the doctor went into the room where the servant girl was (she being the only person in the house be sides the two men). His appearance frightened the girl, for he was literally covered with blood from his head to his feet, and she was sti'l further frightened by the doctor's using a terrible threat In speaking of "that man." Why she did not look into the matter then does not appear; but about the time given above a man rushed up tootllcer Seth Sterling and told him his presence was needed at Dr. Ordway's at once. He hastened there, and found a crowd about the door of the house. Entering he was shown Into the doctor's otllce. There a sickening sight met his eyes. The doctor lay back in an easy chair all besmeared with blood and stupefied. The man Andrews was stretched out on the floor. The oilloer spoke to the doctor and received no response. The mau was also speechless. Oillcer Sterling requested a bystauder to call tho nearest doctor, and Dr. .Woods was s.ou present. The man, in the meantime, had been a'lle to till iu a stupid way his story, lie had called, as aoave refeired to, but knew not what took place from 2 till after 7 o'clock, by the side or the mau wat a large bottle of ether, and he thought he had taken some, amino doubt he had been under the influence all the time. Scattered ou the Door were surgical in struments at all kinds, towels and cloths wringing wet with blood. One of the doctor's hands was cut, and from the hand of the man before him the bleed was forming a pool on the lloor. This hand, which looked more like a picee of fresh beef than anything else, had eight long cuts in it, and all deep to the bones. The back of the hand, perfectly sound before, was slit open, and cuts or. the thumb extended to the wrist. Ordway was put to bed, and a poltcemau left to puard him. Andrews was taken homo, and his wounds dressed. He will lose his thumb, if uot the use of the hand. Ordway cnild say Out little in de fense, but wanted to refer it to a jury of doctors.
