' It is this trio that did the dirty work for Rea that culminated in the dismissal of Profes- sor Smith from the High hool and nearly wrecked that institution. They accused Smith of being unpatriotic, and under this false accusation, the School Board, at Rea's dictation, dis- missed him.

Forty-five hundred lovers of our great national game turned out yesterday af- ternoon to see the Stocktons, reinforced by “Sandow” Mertes and George Harper, defeat the Oaklands by the score of 1 to 0. Not in many years has such a perfect exhibition been witnessed as that of ves- terday. The Stocktons, who have hither- to been looked upon as anything but an | o-date ball team, more than surprised the persistent fans by thelr steady and at_intervals really brilliant playing. Harper, their new pitcher, was simply invinciblé, and with Mertes to stead vmi: was that the Oaklands could not score. two Eastern men.

Dr. Roberts, the sanitary superintendent, was ordered to have the bod- placed in a hermet- ically sealed cakket at once. Mr. Murphy also gave orders that every| precaution should be taken to prevent the spread of the disease. Colonel Waring had been sent to Ha- | vana as a special commissioner of this | Government to ascertain the exact san- | ideas for the best methods of putting the place in first-class sanitary shape. He was to report to the President, and on the day he returned he said he ex- pected to go to Washington the next He id he felt unwell, but it was not thought he was seriously ill. He said he had a great deal of informa- tion, which he said he thought would be of great service to the President. Colonel Waring was a native of New York State, and much of his earlier life was spent in the study and practice of sclentific agriculture. He was for some | in charge of Horace Greeley's farm at Chappaqua, N. Y. In 1857 he was appointed agricultural engineer of Central Park, this city. He entered the military service in 1862 as adjutant in the New York Reserves, but was transferred to the Army of the Southwest, where he helped consoiidate the Fremont and Benton Reserves into the Fourth Missouri Cavalry, of which he became colonel.
