The Crooked Branch Ciblu, of this couuty, I and the Wee Nee's of Kingst:-e,. played a match gaie of base ball on Saturday last, which resulted in favor of the Crooked Branch Club, by a score of 16 to 5. Master Edgar Charles Dickson has been introduced to the mysteries of the "Devil's" life in the Tinzs ofice. Ile has already manifested quick intelligence for the work, and will make himself a valuable acquihi sition.

All in jail are eclored persons. We hope our readers will excuse the fail- t ing off of the usual amount of local m' tter thid week. An unexpected rush of adver- e tisements is the cause. The Tunws wIll be L enlarged to meet this demand as soot as ar- c rangements can be perftcted, perhaps by e next week. A number of advertiments e.c that have been necessarily- left out will re ceive an extra insertion on their cxptin. It Mr. Ed. Cooper, son of the late C. G. W. Cooper, died of cornsumption. on n t day, August 20th.- He was a young :nan of promise, with bright prospects beforehm and he had just fmnished a house to start m i lhfe, when the fatal disease claimed h'rm for' a victim. His funeral took place~ at ine Brick Church on Sunday.-Wlbchmann a &ordhron. Bzronz J'rnen Wn.sos: During the p:.st d week, the Trial Justice at Manning haLs bec n unusually busy hearing the tales of the dis tressed, issuing warrants, aniC tryong causes. The result of his wee):s' work is onme prison er, Joe Nelson, committed to jail for trial at the higher court for ho'usehreaking and lar ceny; another. Robert Jones. cornvicted of masalt arad battery and ctcnmiltted to jail fo.ri ten days. On Mo day, Julius W oodsatd others wnre tried for failure to do road duty. They were aconitted on account rCf the dis- - crepancy between the testimony of the -rad overseer and warner. A number of w" r nts 'were issued and placed in the land's of thie sheriff for the arrest of the parties. DE.&: EniroR : The following is a mmne of base ball played on Saturday, the 7h between the Cross Roads and Junieville clubs, on the grounds of the former, which resulted in a decided victory for the Cross Boads. The score stood 14 to 21, It is d ue the Cross Roi~ds to state that they only had eight bats, while their opponents had nine. The Junevilie's claim the victory as due to' the Cross Roads having one of I'anola's players, while they had onie of Panola's and three of Manning'splayers. The boys were beaten fairly and they hate to own it. Well, some excuse is better than nene. The bat-. ting on both sides was excellent and with C competent training some of our boys could ft soon join the league. Capt. C. W. Brown . of Panola umpired. B3. The Yorkviile Engairer devotes a column and a half to a sketch of the life of Dr. Archibald I. Barron, who died on the 20th inst., from which we gather the following facts: Dr. Barren was aescended from an illus trious Scotch family, called in Scotland Barrone and Barone. The line through which Dr. Barron descen ded is traced back to Jas. Barone, who as one of two lay comnmis-'( sioners, with John Knok, attended 2.e first t General Assembly of the church of Scotland which met in Edinburg en the 20th day of December 1560. During the misguidedii reign of tle Stewart's memobers of the fai-t ly emig. .ed to Ireland, and a.t C.a.rickf.ergus nder their f stering protection, the Pros byterian church of Ireland was orgainized in 1642. From Ireland, the ancesitors of Dr. I .Barron emigrated to America. We tin& theI name prominent agan in Cm James Barron whose connecion with tnte Chesapeake and duel .ithi Commo"or De catur, are touching episodes in Amecricar. historv. Boern in York county whither his anc, tors had moved, Dr. Barron completedi is education in his native county, and :.fter wards began the study of medicine. He, completed his medical course at Transylva nia University and commenced the re tice of his profe'ssion in York county. Med i cine was his life work. He was married early in life to Miss Mary Pressley, a siste:'! f &age . P. Presaley.M An u'nusually happy writer and speaker.
