Too much secrecy in the con duct of government affairs usual ly results in making the turn-ou-the-light cry popular. Was there anything signifiv. cant in Secretary Hoke Smith opening his Georgia campaign for "sound" money at Gainesville? The continuous heavy rains throughout Japan have ruined the crops. It is feared that the failure of the rice harvest will cause a famine.

The Public Ledger, one of the best, brightest and newsiest papers published in Norfolk, has just completed its nineteenth year of its existence. May it continue to live and flourish. In a habeas corpus case at Asheville Judge Simonton, ol the Federal court, decides that the State tax of $250 on dealers in musical instruments is in vio lation of the Federal Constitu tion.

University Catalogue. FRANKLIN &E DENTON PLAY TWO GAMES OF BALL. Franklin's "soft snap" proved not so "soft" after all. SENT HOME iICK. On Tuesday last the prettiest, closest and most exciting game of base ball ever played in Eden ton was witnessed by a large and enthusiastic crowd of people at the Fair grounds. The game was called promptly at 4 p. m. by Umpire Jno. C. Bond, the home team at the bat. The first inning gave Edentou two runs, Frauklin one. In the second, third and fourth both sides were shut out, but on reaching the fifth the Edentou 's appeared to get mad with the ball and tried to knock its cover off, making five runs. Same inning Frank lin scored two. Sixth, Edentou 1, Franklin 4. In this inning one run scored for Franklin that it is claimed they were not enti tled to, as the third man was re tired between bases before runs ner reached home. The Umpire having a close watch upon the runner caught between 1st and 2nd bases, was unable to see both plays at one and the same time, gave the doubt in favor of the Franklins and ordered score. Seventh inning resulted in an other "shut out" for both sides. Eighth, Edenton scored 2, Frank lin 3. Ninth another "shut out," making a tie. Tenth, both clubs made one run each, mak ing game still a tie. Eleventh inning ended the game, Edenton being "shut out" and Franklin gaining one run.

SECOND GAME: Wednesday afternoon these clubs again crossed bats. A good crowd was present and never be fore have we seen such an in terest manifested over a game of ball. Edenton went to the bat with the "celebrated" "invinci ble" Mills in the box, scored two runs. Franklin in their turn were "shut out." Edenton again at the bat in the second inning made two runs, and Franklin again shut out. During the third inning "time" was caned on account ol rain, after which Edenton returned to the bat with a determination to win. They batted the ball with a vim, and twice three runs were scored on one hit, while the bat ter maae tnira oase wun ease, proving Daniel and Hogan "heavy hitters;" Hawkins' two bagger showed he was not far behind. Nine runs scored in this inning for Edenton, while the Franklins were again white washed. In the tourth inning Edenton having made five runs with only two out, Franklin "threw up the sponge." Umpire called game and declared result, 9 to o, in favor of Edenton. Below is actual score: CITY AFFAIRS. PROCEEDINGS OF THE ALDERMEN.
