DAIkY CHARLOTTE OBSERVER, AUGUST. 18, 1895. s s i i - 4 t ! -V. 4r - i lit i CLKVJULAND STIIJu OR TOP. The Terriers Hard Pushed by Baltimore ., Philadelphia Stove Cp, While Boston and Hew York Tak to the ToboKSrajt la "Wester Claba Play East Hex Week. - The pennant race continues close and exciting in the National "League. It ' Is, If : anything, even more interesting . than a week ago, from the fact that Baltimore has dislodged Pittsburg from - second place, and is pushing Cleveland, the leaders, hard. For two days there was only a difference of one point be tween the Terriers and Orioles. - Botn clubs are. playing a strong game, and the result of each, day's game is awaited with great interest. Cleveland gained ' a lap on Baltimore yesterday. The " former won from Cincinnati, while the Baltimore-Washington game was post poned on account of rain. V Pittsburg met with a set-back 'last .week, which is due principally to the crippled condition of the team. The pitchers are not in the best of . condi tion, while Cross and Clingman, short- stop and third baseman, respectively, are unable to play. The Pirates are playing a fairly good game, however, and promise to make it interesting for all comers before the season eloses. Cincinnati continues to play a good fame, and now occupies fourth place, 'he team is in good shape, and Man ager Ewinjf in confident that his aggre gation of Porkopolitans will finish in the first division. Chicago took a brace last week, and still holds on to fifth place, but just how long they will remain there is a jnatter of conjecture. Philadelphia has been the surprise of the week, having won every game she played. The Phillies took three straights from New York, knocking both Kusie and Meekin out of the box. They have been winning more by their heavy hitting than through the work of the pitchers. They are now .in the fight and will doubtless continue there. Boston has taken a big tumble, and unless they make a brace will be fight ing it out with New York for ninth place. That there is something radi cally wrong, there is no doubt, but the management seems unable to success fully cope with the troublesome ele ment. Brooklyn, after a neck-and-neck race with New York for a few days, man aged to pull away from the Gothamites, and now occupies eighth place. New York is back among the tail enders again. They made a spurt last week, but owing to dissipation in the ranks the team has been putting up a very ragged game. Washington, St.. Louis and Louisville are playing a strong game for tail-end-ers. Each of them are stronger than last year, but not strong enough to cut any figure in the race. The Western clubs play in the East fcr the last time, beginning with next Tuesday, playing as follows: Chicago ai uammore; Cleveland at Washington louisviue at Hoston; Pittsburg at Brooklyn; St. Louis at New York, and dincinnati at 1'hiladelDhia. It depends almost entirely upon this trip whether the pennant remaiLS in the East or goes West. Cleveland is reckoned upon as the strongest West ern team, and if they can win a good percentage 01 games on the coming t trip their chances are about equal with t nose or any Eastern club. PKOF. WIUJAMi' STOCK FARM. He is Trying to Induce the Orange Coun ty Farmers to Raise Stock. Prof. H. H. Williams, of Chapel Hill, was here Thursday. Prof. Williams is not only a good teacher of philosophy but a good stock farmer. About a year ago me iaea struck him thai he could oy ruuaing a siock idrm and raising cattle induce some of the neighboring farmers to go at stock raising. He bought a plantation near the town and sowed it in grass and clover. Then be bought some very fine Jersey cows from Mr. W. J. Upchurch, of Raleigh, and others, and began his work. His num ber was very small at the start, but now he has twenty-three head. His last purchase was from Capt. Sid Alexander yesterday. He bought 9 Jersey cows. He has now the pick from several of the best herds in the State. He bought seme from Mr. Holland's farm asjd some from Mr. Hambly's farm nir Salisbury. Mr. Williams is trying earnestly and eagerly to aid the farmers about Chapel Hill in making a start at stock raising. He is experimenting with all kinds of grasses, to see which is best suited to that section. His farm will soon be one of Chapel Hill's greatest attractions. Prof. Williams says that many im provements are being made about the University grounds. Some new and handsome residences are going up; the electric light plant is being put in; and many new buildings are going up in the town. A large school is expected this fall. 1'ror. Williams leaves this for home. morning A CANNING FACTORY. More of Them Needed in the Smith They Are Profitable. Mr. W. D. Alexander, of Croft, is canning tomatoes. He passed through town Thursday morning and said that he was getting more work than he possibly could do; that he was running from C in the morning till 6 at night. Not only is he using tomatoes from his farm, where he has ten acres in tomatoes and on which he has a fine crop, but from all parts of this section they are being sent to him. From the country around Charlotte and Davidson College they come in large quantities. He has actu ally had one shipment from the city of Charlotte. He is overrun with stock. The capacity of his factory is 5,000 cans daily. mi. nicAauucr jusi uegan in is as an experiment but he soon saw that there was more in it than he at first thought ai more oi jiecKienourg s men were to go at businesses of this kind, they rwmu icrwuQiy nna it profitable. iTucre&s several years ago many toma tiAa .....

A Descriptive Pamphlet Gotten Up By the Southern Charlotte In It. A neat pamphlet has been received by the Observer which is gotten up by Mr. L. A. Shipman, traveling passenger agent of the Southern, at Birmingham. Ala., which gives the route and a short sketch of the leading cities along the line of the Southern road over which a special train from Birmingham will run. The special is to take the Knights Templar from the "Iron City" ("Bin mingham) to the "Bean Pot (Boston), at which place the twenty-sixth Trien nial Conclave, Grand Encampment, Knights Templar of the United States is to be held from August 2Gth tt Au gust 30th. The train will be composed exclusively of Pullman buffet sleeping cars, including one or .Pullman s latest improved dining cars, and will be for the exclusive use of the Knights Tem plar and their friends. The pamphlet says: "The train will leave Birming ham at 5.55 a. m., AugusF24th, andSfter passing several lare cities, the next point of interest is the Golden City, Charlotte, N. C, which point is reached as the sun loses itself behind those magnificent mountains of the land of the sky. Here we are joined by the Charlotte commandery and delegates trom Augusta and Florida." The pamphlet is beautifully printed and well designed and reflects credit on Mr. Shipman's excellent taste. THE HORSE THIEF. He Camped for a While in the Steel Creek Neighborhood A Sleek Duck.

His Gun Goes Off in His Pocket and Wonndi Him in the Leg. bnerin i. smuti met- with a seri ous accident yesterday morning, but it might have been more serious. He was in a hurry at the time it happened, hav ing just reached the jail after coming trom up town, and was making prepara tions to join a searching parry. His daughter brought his pistol to him and he put it in his coat pocket very hur riedly. His daughter warned him that it didn t have a good hold, but in his haste the sheritf did not take time to arrange it. It would have been better for him, however, if he had, for it fell out and was discharged. The sheriff did not stop, thinking that he had dropped a cartridge which had ex ploded. As he reached the front gate. however, he felt a numbness in his foot and looking down saw that the ball from his revolver had entered the skin of his ri:rht leg a short dista ce above the ankle, and had run partly around the leg before coming out. The blood was spurting out, and Mecklenburg s lord high sheriif was forced to post pone his intended trip while Drs Brevard and Petree took care of the in jured member. The sheritf takes his ill luck with his customary resignation and stolid indif ference. CHURCH NEWS. Successful Meetings Going on in the Coun tryOther Religious Matters.
