U u ASHLAND DOWNED Exciting: Game of Foot Ball at the Trotting: Park. BOTH TEAMS FOUGHT HARD The Visitors Were More Stalwart, But the Home Team's Knowledge of the Game Counteracted Strength. The Shennndoah nnd Ashland foot ball teams engaged In one of the most stub born contests seen here this season nt tho Trotting park, Saturday afternoon, the home team winning by a score of 0 to 0. The visitors went upon the grounds primed with confidence and they were not a little surprised when the game got started and they realized what they had run up against. The Shenandoahs took the klck.off and lnndcd the ball at the Ashland ten-yard line. The vMtors then proceeded with the ball, but lost. After a few gains by the home team Wertz ran over the lino and scored the first touch-down, the play having lasted thirteen minutes. Jones kicked the goal and made the score 0 to 0 In favor of Shenandoah. The Interference of MoIIale, It, Koso ond Jones nlded Wertz considerable in making the touch-down. The Shenandoahs secured the hall on the kick-off and lost it on four downs without the required gain. Ashland pro ceedeel slowly to the Shenandoah goal. When but half a minute remained to complete the first half Captain Jones called for time, which was granted. Bro- elm ran over the Shenandoah line, not knowing that time had been called, and the touch-down was not allowed. The second half of the game was eyen more. exciting than tho first and the AbIi lands came dangeronsly close to scoring. They' were prevented from doing so by Sbortall's excellent tackle. Shenandoah then took the kick oil and Ashland went down the field through centre like a sure winner, but they lost the ball on a fumble and Frost got it, at thq same time recel v ing an ngly cut on the forehead. Shen- nndoah gained rapidly on good runs by Wertz and flue Interference on the part of A. Rose nnd Mallck, Shenandoah seemed to have the best of tho half when the half ended, The game was a most exciting one and tho result should arousq sufficient Interest on the part of the public to warrant better patronage for the home team. They play hard to give the spectators every advant age of the game and in Saturday's con test they successfully met an exception ally Btrong team. The boys certainly dc serve encouragement. The teams llued up as follqws in the game: Shenandoah Positions. Aslitaml. Frost .-night Kncl Snyder, Smith Jlcllalo - Kleht Guard... J. Faust aiaiick ltignt Tackle Ymmi Trezise........... -Centre..

Trezlse, at centre, is a stone wall. Cap tain Jones would have to go many miles to find a man to take his place and play It as well. Arthur likes the game, having lost 12 pounds since the season opened. Captain Jones gained good ground, charging the centre many times for gains of five or ten yards. The management went In the hole on Saturday's game. Ashland received $30 guarantee, while the gate receipts only amounted to a little over $10. This is discouraging to the boys who, hove been putting up a good article of foot ball, hav ing lost but two games this season. For bargains In wall paper go to J, P.

Since "The Limited Mull" has made such a phenomenal success, no less thnn ten companies have been organized or have adopted locomotives, cars or similar effects, but the, people appear to readily "get on to" the fact that Elmer 13.

There was no special reference to tho situation of the church's affairs during the services yesterday. Calamity Averted. A calamity was barely averted on the Pennsylvania railroad, near St. Clair, Saturday night. A crew lost control of a train of coal and freight cars at Wether- rill Junction nnd the train parted while thundering down the mountain. Near the St. Clair tunnel the engineer got his engine under control nnd met the rear section witn a crasu. Three cars wero derailed and tho wreck was soon cleared up. The accident happened n few mill utes before the Shenandoah train loft Pottsvllle at 0:40. It was about 0:30 when the mixed train rushed down the moun tain and as the freight had instructions to side track to permit the passenger train, to pass, a collision was narrowly averted.

The glass sides of the new vehicle differ from those of the hearse in that they are oblong in shape Instead of oval. Tho vehicle has a very rich appearance. GLEANINGS OF THE DAY. Items Gleaned by the Reporters on Their Rounds. DOINGS OF THE VETERANS. They Have Called Upon the Younger Generation For Assistance and a Prompt Kesponse Has Been Made. The line weather brought the people out in force yesterday nnd the two electric railway lines renped n harvest In fares The cars were filled all day and late In the evening. The weather was so pleasant that tho summer cars were put Into Use ngain and they were kept in uso until af ter dusk, when the temperature became somewhat cooler and the closed cars be came favorites. The popnlnrlty of open air concerts was agnin attested last night by the large as semblage nt the cornor of Main and Centre streets to listen to the concert given by the Lithuanian Band. The weather was delightful gonulne Indian summer wenther nnd tho inspiring music made one feel that the summer months wero much closer to tho season than they really are. The Lithuanian Band is certainly making rapid strides In grasping the nttrlbutos ot a good baud and much of the credit for this Is duo to the very nble directorship of Prof. Zeltz. There was an amusing scene on West Lloyd street, near Main, last evening. As a party of women wero pas-sing over the board pavement on the south sldeof the street n hugo rat ran across tho boards. It struck the ankle of one of the women nnd she Involuntarily' Jumped. When she saw the rat scamper from beneath her skirt she gave another jump nndscreamed as if she were about to meet with some thing terrible. At the same time the other women saw tho rat as It ran to its hole, and they, too, jumped and screamed. If there had been chairs about the women would have been upon them in a jiffy- One seemed to be anxious to climb up tho barber pole which was near at hnnd. The stilpos on the polo seemed to spread out in laughter over the situa tlon. Three men who were following the women hurried up to them when they heard the screams. When they saw tho vigorous shaking of skirts and learned that a rat had innocently caused tho com motion they fell into the merriment tho barber's polo was feasting upon. It is plain that Father Time is making Inroads upon the lives ot those of tho sur vivors of the Rebellion who resldo lu town as well as other places. The elastic step of the majority of tho "vets" resld ing here long since departed, but they re tained sufficient vigor for years after to parade when occasion demanded nnd shoulder n musket or rifle, when It beenrae their duty to play tho last tribute of respect to one of their de- censed comrades, by firing a sqlute over his grave. But nature has since been making more inroads nnd it can readily be Imagined thnt It Is with deep regret that the "vets" now bow to tho in evltable and Bay they aro now obliged to call upon the Sons of Veterans to relieve them of much of the ceremony attend ing the funerals. Wntkin Waters Post, No. 140, G. A. R., has officially notlfled the members of Henry Horncnstle Camp, No. 40, S. of V., that upon the occasion of nil future funerals In town of veterans the younger generation will bo expected to bold Itself n readiness to carry out that part of tho ceremony requiring the salute. Following the example set by the survivors of tho Rebellion, as well ns those who fell in it, tho Sons of Veterans have cheerfully nnd promptly responded to the call of duty, and tho members of the camp nre now engaged in forming firing squad of twenty from their ranks. This squad will provide Itself with the regulation military uniform and the twenty bronze rifles which the camp owns will hereafter bo ready for active service in doing honor to the defenders of the Union when they receive the final roll cal1- ,.
