tf PICIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DtSPATCH.l
Chicago, Aur. i. Anion's youngsters
ran bases like Sionx Indians at a ghost
dance and the Pitts
burg pirates won in
a canter. The colts
cracked out two
doubles in succes
sion yet not a run
crossed the rubber

over himself at
third and as the
next three men
went out in "order,
uncle expired on
third. The base running of the Chicagos was
vile, but the havoc that knocked the colts into
a cocked hat came in the third. Kelly had
struck out and Ked Ehret made a hit Then
Miller took a base on balls. Donovan
touched off a grounder that "Jijrgs" Parrott
jucgled, missing not only a put out but a
chance for an easy double.
Some Verr Tlmoly Sine'"".
"With the sacks loaded, old Bill Hutchi
son was jumped on for three little singles
which with a sacrifice drove five runs, only
one of which was earned, over the plate.
That settled the came then and there. The
crowd was one of the smallest ever seen at
the park. The rain which fell np to 3
o'clock and continued intermittenlv
throughout the game was responsible for
the poor attendance. The game all around
was as sloppy as the weather. The Chi
cagos lost througa their wretched playing
in the first three innings and deserved to
lose. The colts had a fighting chance in the
second, when Anson and 'Wilmot with no
hands out made doubles. But Anson's
foothold was not secure and he went to
grass. Ehret struck out Canavan and
Decker, then "Hutch" became an easy out.
In the third Schriver made a hit, went to
second on a wild pitch and to third on
Shugart's low throw of Dahlen's grounder.
The Patrol Wagon Waa There.
Dahlen started to steal second, and Bill,
who runs like a selling plater, started for
home, but found the patrol wagon there an
hour ahead of him. The Colts got in their
only runs in the fourth. After Anson's
out TVilmot poked out a hit and Canavan
got a base on balls. Then Canavan started
for second. Beckley muffed Bierbauer's
throw. "Wilmot bad time to skip to third,
but he lingered too long and was run down
between the bases. Decker's slashing
three-bagger into right scored Canavan, and
the long and lean right fielder dragged his
run home on Bierbauer's throw to FarreL
After that run of luck in the third things
went easy until the seventh. Miller flew
out and Donovan sent up a high fly that
"Wilmot made a gallant spurt tor. The
ball fell short and Donovan raced to sec
ond, from whence he scored on Smith's sac
rifice and Shusart's little single. Attend

Bad News About the Famous Bacer of M.
F. Dvryer.
New York, Aug. 1 It was announced at
Monmouth Park to-day that Michael F.
Dwyer's great 6-yearold horse Longstreet,
by Longfellow, out of Semper Idem, had
btoken down. This is bad news for Mr.
Dwyer, and it Is bad news for the Amer
ican turf and the tens of thousands of race
men who love to see a good horse, speedy,
game and capable of covering a distance of
ground. Longstreet has been a very con
sistent performer since his 3-year-old form,
and he has wonbr his former owners, the
Dwyer Brothers, and his present owner, M.
F. Dwyer, vast sums or money in stakes,
pnrses and wagers. Many of the richest
prizes on the turf have fallen to bis lot, and
M. F. Dwyer has repeatedly said that Long
stieet was the best horse he over owned.
His forelegs have been under snspicion for
some time, and ho ran his last two or three
races on his bulldog courage, pulling up
lame and extremely sore after each.
Ha has been handled very gingerlv, and
his breaking down hRR been only a question
of a short time. Longstreet,wliile ostensibly
owned by M. F. Dwyer, is really the prop
erty of Milton Young, of UcGrathiana fatud,
Kentucky, who bought the great son of
Longfellow a year or so ago tor $20,000, the
horse to be delivered when hfs racing career
was endod. Longstreet will -probably bo
doing stud duty at McGrnthiana, next
spring.
Right on top of the news of Longstieet's
break down came tl)e announcement that
Messrs. Gideon & Daly's great 3-vear-old colt
His Highness, winner of the Futurity and
other rarcs as a 2-year-old that foot up a
total of $109,000, is lame.

THEY MUST PAY TJP.
Father Bill Curtis T.ilks About That A. A.
TJ. Assessment.
New York, Aug. L There Is a good deil of
comment going on Just at present in A. A.
U. circles over the refusal of several athletic
clubs to pay the assessment of $13 made by
the Metropolitan Association last win
ter to pay its honest debts incurred by the
Indoor meeting, January 23. Tho fact of the
matter is that the Metropolitan Association
Is doing considerably less worrying over
tbe matter than the clubs which have le
fused to come to time on the absurd plea
that there was nothing in the constitution
of the association calling for such a pro
cedure. Piesident Curtis says the affair
will result in one good thing, pointing out to
the association the clubs that will not stand
by it in time ot need.
He is delighted with the way the clubs
about Pittsbnrg, Cleveland and vicinity met
the assessment. In the Gas City are several
clubs which only joined the union very
recently, and they interposed no objections
to tbe action.
President Curtis' advice to the malcon
tents to "pay or go," is about the correct
thing under tbe circumstances, hut if tne
latter are desirous of leaving it would bo
the graceful thing for them to pay, and
then go. Better that than going by com
pulsion. A Shoot at Unlontorm.

CONFESSES TO A MURDER.
A London Criminal says He TTas Con
nected With the Killing or Lord Leitrim
He Also Bad a Hand In Two Other
Crimes of the Same Sort.
liONDOK, Aug. L A man who is con
fined in prison In Glasgow has confessed to
the authorities that he was implicated in
the murder of Lord Leitrim, who was shot
and killed on April 2, 1878, while driving
near his residence in County Derry, Ire
land. The prisoner also stated that
he was concerned in tbe killing of
Lord Mount Morres at Busheen, County
Mayo, Ireland, September 25, 1880. He
further savs lie was hired to assist the
man who killed the informer James Carey,
who was shot aud killed on board the
steamer Melrose at Port Elizabeth, South
Africa, by a passenger named O'DonnelL
The prison commissioners are carefully
investigating the story of the man, whom
they have subjected to a most searching
examination and are endeavoring to secure
proof of his statements. They refuse to
divulge the prisoner's name or'to turnish
any information regarding him. None ot
tbe persons concerned in the murders of
Lord Leitrim and Lord Mount Morres were
ever caught.
, James Carey, in whose murder the pris
oner says he was hired to assist, was a well-to-do
tradesman and a Town Councillor of
Dublin, who furnished the information
through which the persons who, on May 6,
1882, murdered Lord Frederick- Caven
dish, the newly appointed Chief
Secretary for Ireland, and Un
der Secretary Burke in Pbccnix Park
were brought to justice. He it was who
by dropping a handkerchief gave the signal
for the murderers to do their work.
After the conviction and sentence of the
prisoners, Carey left the country and ex
traordinary precautions were taken by the
Dublin police to conceal his destination.
These precautions largely through Carey's
own behavior, proved unavailing, nnd he
was tracked to South Africa by one Patrick
O'Donnell, who shot and killed him on
board the steamer Melrose at Port
Elizabeth. O'Donnell was subsequently
brought back to England and placed on
trial for Carey's murder in the Central
Criminal Court, where he was finally con
victed of murder and sentenced to be
hanged. He was executed at New Gate,
December 17, 1883. It has been ascertained
that the prisoner is a lifelong criminal
named Anderson. He has often been con
victed of various offenses. His intellect is
weak.

.HOLDING ON 10 THE OFFICE.
For Over a Bnndred Tears One Family
Filled the Fame Position.
Harrodsbcro, Kr., 'Aug. L For over 100
years the offices of Circuit and County Clerk
of this (Mercer) county have been in tbe
Allin fainllv, a record which is probably
without parallel. The first court held in tbe
county opened at Harrodsburg the first day
of August, 17S6, and on that day Thomas
Allin was appointed Circuit and County
Clerk. He held the office or Circuit Clerk
until S33,wneu lie resigned, but continued
to act as County Clerk until February 7, 1831,
when he resigned that office also, having
served as Circuit Clerk 37 years and County
Clerk IS years.
Upon his resignation as Circuit Clerk in
1823 his son, Phil T. Allin, was appointed to
tbe position and held It until his death in
1849, 28 years. Ben C.AIlin then received the
appointment, and was Circuit Clerk until
1862, when, on account or bis strong South
ern sympathy, a Unionist was elected the
office bavir.g been previously made an elec
tive one. The Allins were out or tbU office
until 1886, when Bush W. Allin, a son of Ben
C. Allin, was elected for a term or six years,
and be has recently received the Democratic
nomination for another term.
When Thomas Allin. Jr., resigned the
county clerkship In 1831, his son. Thomas
Allin, Jr., received the appointment, and
held it (by election after 1S5J) until 1S62. In
that year, because be favored tbe South, be
was denied the right to Oecome a candidate,
and a Union sympathizer was elected. In
1866 Ben a Allin, the former Circuit Clerk,
was elected County Clerk, nnd he still holds
the office, being probably tho oldest court
clerk, in point of service as well as in aze. In
tbe United States. He was born in 1808, and
is therefore &t years old. He nas served as
assistant, deputy or clerk of one or the
courts since culldhqod. t

THE MAN WITHOUT A STOMACH
May exist as a museum freak, bnt most of
us recognize the stomach as necessary to
life and comfort. Most of ns experience a
little trouble from this source occasionally,
wrong action of the stomach causing dys
pepsia, etc., and often the trouble extends,
Involving the liver and bowels, whence we
find biliousness and constipation. We find
also that the bowels and kidneys (nature's
sewage system) become clogged with effete
matter, I mm which comes Impure blood,
bolls, blotches, pimples, scrofula, scrofulous
swellings and cancerous complaints. The
Burdock Blood Bitters taken at the begin
ning, or at any later stage, arrests the
trouble, restores tbe disordered organ to
activity, thereby removing every vestige of
disease. B. B. B. is an absolutely pure ex
tract of roots and herbs, which can not
injure even the most delicate constitution,
and as a cure for dyspepsia, biliousness,
constipation, bad blood, etc, succeeds in 99
