Surely hard luck
"Ward and hl aggregation of ball players on
their Wctern trip To have rain on Friday
was bad enough, but when it came down
yesterday just in time to prccnt the game
it was extremely unfortunate. If the
weather had been tine it is reasonable to say
that there would have been between 5,000
and 6,000 people at the game. The fact that
St rat ton was going to pitch would have been
a. groat source of attraction. And lho
Brooklyns are a very good team, in fact,
jiiuch better in tho field than on paper.
John Ward was a little disconsolate yes
terday when the rain stopped tho game.
This is too lad," he said. Wo havo been
dogged by bad weather ever since wo left
.home, and at times when it did us the most
njnry. But we will likely get .over it. Our
team w ill come out all right, and I trust that
when i e meet the Pittsburgs next Saturday
we'll have fine weather and I think.
we'll get even with them."
All the Brooklyn players have a very high
estimation of tho Pittsburg team, ritehcr
Terry, who is quite a competent Judge of a
ball team, said that Pittsburg would w In the
pennant this year. Similar opinions wero
fvpress6d by other players.
President O'Ncil was not in good humor
yesterday either because of the rain. Ho
said- "Hang it, the weptherso'far has caused
us greater loss than has been suffered by any
other club in the League. Rain has spoiled
onr openine days and lost us two Saturdays
entirely. This" Is certainly loss enough.
True Wc ha e had pood crow ds here, but we
cannot, afford to lose our special days and
Saturday."'
He continued: "Woaro perfectly satisfied
with our team, and I am ot the opinion that
we will beat c ery other team in tho League
if aH goes well. Of cour-e accidents may
liappen, but if our team keeps playing on its
incuts w c w ill be the w timers. '
HAD LOTS OF JUK.
A Greased Ball Alleged to Have Been Intro
duced Into the Cle eland-Boston Game.
. Cleveland, O., May 23. There wero many
features in to-day's Cleveland-Boston game.
The day was cod, but a large crowd was
present. First, Clark son was in very bad
form. He was w ild, and filled the bases by
giving the Cleveland tatters lots of bases on
balls. Ho next distinguished himself by
forcing a run in. He was clearly out of con
dition. becondly, a greased ball found its way into
the diamond andGrubcr could not do any
thing with it. When it left his hand it went
up in the air like a toy balloon. Umpire
l'ow ers declined to take it out of the game
and a jawing match follow ed. In dne courso
of time tho ball found its way toDoyloon
third base and he threw it into remote right
field, where Viau, who was not in the game,
fired it over the lence. 'Powers thereat fined
Dovle.
Tiiifli,-Xash talked loud and cut a monkey
shine or two and Powers fined him. Nnh
seemed to like that sort of thing and kept
on. Then Pow ci s ordered him off tho field.
More smiles bv Xasli. Powers called a
policeman and the latter bemg so deliberate
in liis noi ements. Pom ers cooled off and
JCash then, amid the inemmont of all, w ent
to bat and a moment later w ent out on a fly.
All in all it was an unique exhibition. Score:

AN INTEBESTllJO CONTEST.
Two Nines at Homestead Have Quite an Ex
citing Time of It.
A -very interesting game of baseball be
tween the workers at tho rolls and shears in
the plate mill of Carnegie, Phtpps & Co.,
came off at Homestead yesterday, and after
a very hard tussle resulted in a victory for
the-Shcars.
Much rivalry has existed all season be
tween these two teams, and this, their first
game,, was of -considerable- Importance.
S
About 200 srjectntors testified by
presence ttiat there was for Homestead
nTjlaco in the ball lovine"bublic The '81
at the end of the game was 16 to 12 in favor
of the Shears' team, and much Interest will
be developed in the retnrn'game on Satur
day ncx Considerable talent was shown
by Messrs. Brown, Sice, O'Donnell, Gasches
and Betfnett. That those people will be
heard of later is putting it mild. A game for
flOO a side is seriously talked, about.

"What's in tho Wind?
CrxcTXXATi,'MaY'23. There Is much specu
lation over tho call of President Kramer for
a special meeting of the Association here
noxt weejc "Thercnasn story on the street
that Indianapolis parties had made direct
overtures for the transfer of tho club to that
city. This was denied. Mayor Mosby once
more says Sunday ball must stop, ana Chief
of Police Dcltsch says the Athletics nnd
"Kel's" men are booked for patrol wagon
rides if they attempt to play next Sabbath.
The Association people are very angry and
mav defy, the police to do their worst. All
that President Kramer will say is that
several matters of importance are to bo dis
cussed and that Bcillv is to be blacklisted
with Knnnss and Baldwin. Cincinnati has
done poorly, save on Sunday nt Pendleton,
and it is to face that crisis, doubtless, that
the extraordinary session is to be held.

SOME ADVANTAGES OF THE SCHEME
Lady, Players Also Intend to Try and. Capt
ure the Prominent Prizesi
GENEEAL SPOKTDfG tfEWS OF THE "DAT
During the past week there lias been a
movement on foot to make the Western
Pennsylvania Association, of the United
States Lawn Tennis Association, ji big
feature in, lawn tennis, and a strong
effort will be made to get all .the
tennis clubs, "rfho havo 20 or more members,
to Join this association; the fees will be Only
nominal, something like $3 n year for each
club! and tho, advantages of becoming a
member of this association will be innumer
able., A number- of clubs, in addition
,to the five who forui tho associa
tion at present, havo expressed their
willingness to become members, and a moot
ing will be held very shortly to act upon
their, applications." It is the desire ot the
promoters of this schctno to have all tho
tennis clubs within the radius of GO miles
from Pittsburg, in tho Stato of Pennsylvania,
who have a membership as abovo stated, to
send in their Application for ' membership,
stating' tho number of members in their
organization, giving the names of their offi
cers, the number of courts andhow long tho
club has been in existence, addressed-to Sec
retary "Western Pennsylvania Association,"
care of Mr. A. G. Pratt, Wood street, Pitts
burg, Pa. It is not necessary to havo tho
secretary's name, and this address wiU
answer the purpose.
ine advantages ot tqe organization ot tnis
kind are great. The principal idea in form
ing buch an association is first, to promote
the beautiful and healthful game of lawn
tennis whtch was known in '"ye good old
times'' as tho game of kings and the king of
games; second, to enable all members of tho
different clubs who nro members of this as
sociation to compete in all lawn tennis
tournaments of the"United States which are
governed by tho National Association play
ing ruies, nno. mcmDers oi ine association.
can compete in such open tournaments as
those held at Newport, Narragansett, etc.,
nnd thus competition for the "aU comers"
prize at Newport will be within their reach,
so, ifny of these local clubs develop a phe
nomenon, ho will havo a widefleldto test his
ability.
Tho third and Inst reason or forming this
association is the best, namely: to enable all
the lawn tennis players of Western Pennsyl
v nnfa to form each other's acquaintance and
to mcQt each other socially, as well ns on the
field; also to enable the secretaries of tho
different clubs to arrange tournaments,
which will not conflict, and they can also ar
range to have each club represented at their
various big tournaments. The officers' of the
association will consist of a. president, vico
president, secretary and treasurer combined
and a board of directors, consisting of one
renrcsentattvo from each club. A meeting
will be held the second week in June, to act
on applications received by the secretarv.
The lady members of the East End Gym
nasium giounds have bccoino.very enthu
siastic over their tennis prospects,-and in
tend to play alnjosti every afternoon, com
mencing the first week ip. June, Thev have
some very good players In "Misses "Nellie
Vought, Edith Ramsey, Madge Gossctt,
Mane Hughes, Nellie Dauler apd a number
of other promising Misses. They intend to
send representatives to 'compete in tlio
ladies' doubles and singles at Hie Pittsburg
Tennis Club, und they will probably carry
on some oi tue Honors. -

THE RACING RECORD.
Kingman "Wins the Latonia Derby in a Very
Kasy Manner Dickerson Gets Second
Places A Great Opening Day Results at
the Gravescnd Track.
CiSiCixif ati. May 23 A thunder storm with
a heavy rain last night, a leaden sky with
drizzling rain this forenoon and lowering,
tlueatcning clouds this afternoon with a
cooler atmosphere chilled tho hearts of
many race-goers, elso Latonia wonld havo
opened with first day with an attendance of
,18,000 instead of 10,000. r ,
,Hns a pleasant aftcrnoon.'however.and
the track, though tslow, was better than if no
rain nt all had fallen. Of -the attendance a
very large number was ladies, manv of
Whom w ere of prominent families hi Cincin
natiand the neighboring cities, '
Tho new stables, which Increase the ac
commodations to capacity for GOO horses, tho
new paddock removed from the center to
one side of the field and the now, large and
elegnnt betting stand elicited, universal ad
, miration.
All tho races were well contested, but tho
fea"ture of tho day on which universal in
terest was focused was the Latonia Derby,
tho fourth race. Kingman came to Latonia
covered with laurels, and although ho was a
prinfe favorite last night, there wnsdoubt
to-day whether he would Bold up on alieavy
track. That was dispelled by the race. In
the start Georgetown led, with Dickerson
second, all the way through "the first mile.
Meanwhile Kingman was last in tho
start, fifth at tho turn, third at
the judges' stand, last on entering
thebackstretehhntattbo end of the mile
he took third plnce, hcldit till the home turn
when he walked to front and won easily by
a length, with Dickerson second nnd Poet
Scout third, amid cxultantshoutsand cheers
from the great mass, of excited spectatots.
Kingman is owned by Stone and Allen, who
paid $230 for him at a sale at Chicago. The

Great Preparations Being Made by the
Athletes of the Sister City.
Trjat tho local amateur athletes intend to
mako a great season is certain andno further
proof of it is needed 'than the"" extensive ar
rangements that aro being made 'for the
great field day on Juno Gat Exposition Park.
Tho Allegheny "Athletic Association" has not
been very long -in. existence, but the
directors of that organization are fully de
termined that -it shall bo heard tell of this
year.
The first big venture of the Association
will Be on June 6, when one of the best pro
grammes ever submitted to tb.6 sport-loving
piiblle of Pittsburg "will be gone through; of
course, weathor permitting, v The medals to
bo offered as prizes aro as good as any that
have over becn-offered in tho countrV.and
that means that there will be nothing of the
"tin" character about them. The directors
havo been exceedingly particular on this
point and they will profit 'by it in the long
run.
Tho entries have not-closed yet but it is
known that many of tho best amateur per
formers in the country will bo here. The
famous Athletic Club' nt Detroit "will send a
team of its best men nnd 'thcro are some
good ones there, Champion Owen being a
member of that club. Tho Detroit conting
ent in themselves should bo a. great source
of attraction. The Cleveland club will
also be well represented and nbout a dozen
competitors from the East End organization
will boon hand. Sewickley will also send
some competitors. Thero will also be per
formers from the Meadville nnd Washington
and Jefferson Colleges. Of course, the local
athletes will be on hand in strong numbers,
nnd altogether n largo number ol very
interesting contests will be the result.
The contests wHl be .under the rules of tho
A. A. U.. as the local organization is a mem
ber of that bodv. This fact willadd prestige
to the affair and will give n guarantee that
everything will be conducted on, purely
amateur principles. It is expected that tho
park will lie in good condition for the occa
sion nnd if it is the starters will bo very
numerous.
Referring to the field day yesterday Mr; O.
D. Thompson, one of theassociation officials,
said! "Wo are certainly dding everything
wc can possibly do to make our affair a great
success, xnero wii ue some great penui-in-ers
here and we are offering tho.best kind of
inducements to get them here. If every
thing coes off all right we will havo one
of the biggest field davs ever held in Penn
sylvania in thd fall. We are sparing no ex
pense in this instance and I am certain that
w e will bo successful."- ,
On Saturday next thero will be aball gamo
at the park between, two amateur teams.
The game will take place in the afternoon,
"WHAT THE TALENT THINK.
Some Interesting Opinions Regarding tho
ltccent Jackson and Corbett Battle.
In,an interesting articlo.on theJackson
Corbett fight the-New York Iforta gives tho
opinions of the following sporting men:
Dick Roch8"-Corb"ett is undoubtedly, a
great man. I fancied Jackson, but ho has
gono back in the past two years'. I think,
however, that Sla via could whip either of
them. " i
Mike Donovan It was a big'victory for
Jimmy. If his hands had not given out he
would have won sure. ,-. ,
1Ioncst"John" Kelly I liked Jnckson,
but I'll h.iye a bet on theotherfellow if they
ever meet "again.
Frank Stevenson I am satisfied that Kil
rain wiU -beat either Corbett or Jackson
handily. He will whip Slavin, and the rest
will be easy for him. I tell you Jake was
handicapped at Richburg or ne would havo
beaten Sullivan. Wait and see, now.
Billy Edwards Jackson was" mv choice.
but I expected a long fight. The black is not
tho man ho was. xoq much champagne
doesn't do an athlete any good, They are
both game 'uns.
Tom McCOrmick Corbett will whip Jack
son in ten rounds if they ever como together
agnln. Jackson is out of it altogether.
Jack Nail It was -too bad that Peter's
shoulder went back on him. He would havo
won but for-that.
"Polo Jim" Peter will, whin Corbett in 15
rounds next time. I liked Corbett becauso I
didn't believe Jackson could get into condi
tion. Pat Sheedy Slavin will have an easy time
with either of them. Fancy John'L. against
Jackson or Corbett. Why if ho was fit it
wouldn't last four rounds.
Dorninick McCaffrey The result-proves
that neither of them is h hard hitter. , '
Edward Mallahan Corbett is a wonder;
indeed, but if Jackson will take care of him
Eelf for a year he will have little trouble in
defeating him. Look out for this man
Slnvin.
Richnrd K. Fox It was certainly a re
markable exhibition of science and game
ness. They aro both great boxers.
Jack Cusack Sullivan would have a walk
over with either of them. Corbett should
have won. This fight lets Jackson out. He's
a back number now, ,
Gus VFuthlll I had some money on tho
black, but Corbett showed himself to be a
great man." ' . 1

The Yale Crew In Active Training for the
Dig Race.r
New Haves, May 23. Amid all the excite
ment of to-day's baseball game with Prince
ton, Bob Cook turned up in-town.this morn
ing and had tho crew out for two hours'
nractlco before dinner. Again this after-
noon he had the crow on tho water, and ono
change was noticeable. Miles, tho football
plaj cr, was in the bow of tho boat, instead
Crosby. " -
Although tho water was unfavorable, the
crew wero sent over the harbor course on
time. Four miles were row cd, then tw o,nnd
then ono mile on a spurt. The time, so it is
announced, was very satisfactory, especially
on tho mile spurt, which is said to have been
the fastest ever rowed by a Yale crew on tho
harbor. It is noticeable 'that tho crew are
putting in extra work daily.
According to the present programme thero
will be nine college crews on the Thames
river this seasoa. Tho races so far an
nounced arc as follows: Columbia and Cor

Next Saturday.
On Saturday next thegreat three-mile foot
race between Peter Priddy, of Chartlers,
and Jlarry Darrin, of England, -will tako

run between the hours of U nnd 12, o'clock
in the morning. The track could not be
secured in" the afternoon on accdiint of ar
rangements, haying already, been made for
tw o ball games there.
But two such peds as Priddy and Darrin
ought to attract tho public in any part of tho
day. It is. safe to say, that never did two
better dtstanco runners meet in this or any
other city. .Both men are in active training
nnd havo been for some time past. They are
both fn good condition; and It tho track is a
good ono thero will be fast time made.
Darrin and his trainer will arrive from New

M0BE LOCAL BUH0RS.
The Latest Is That Carroll and Staley Are
to Go to Brooklyn.
A well defined rumor was current last
evening to the effect that both 'Staley and
Fred Carroll are-to-be sold to tho Brooklyn
club. ' One 'gentleman went. ad far as to say
that the deal for their' transfer had been'
completed. Ofcotrrso both Mr. O'Neil and
Mr. Ward denied the rumor, each declaring
that there was nothing new.
Managers Ward and Haulon had a long
conversation at tho ball grbunds.'but neither
gentleman would j-i61d as to what was "In
the wind." Ward and Staloy had' a long
conference on tho mattpr yesterday, and
Staley submitted Ais terms to Wardbut tho
latter-stated ho could glvo no answer "until

Staley was promised a definite answer to
morrow morning. He stated last evening
that it was quite true that he had been con
ferring with Manager Ward. ,
If there is any truth in the report that
Carroll is to be released to, Brooklyn1-thero
will certainly be considerable complaint by
tho pntrons of the club. The question to be
answered is: What's the mutter with Car

Regarding "another match with Corbett
Peter Jackson said to-day: "I am perfectly
willing to fight it out, and in fact think that
is the only courso open to us."
Jackson said that on leaving Australia "he
had promised the Sydney Gymnastic Club
that as soon as Goddard put up a forfeit ho
(Jaclcson) wonld -meet Iiim. Jackson said
he had sincoboon informed that that club
had arranged the matcli. and he accordingly
sent a letter by tho last steamer affirming
his willingness to keep his promise, but
stating that he would not leave for Sydney
until summoned by cable. He said his let

would allow ten days for a reply, and If none

matcli with Corbett three months from date.
He further states that should Goddard hold
him to a match and he (Jackson) won, he
would, make no other engagement, bpt re

Yalo Defeats Princeton In tho Hardest
Game They Dje Ever Had.
New Havex, Cosir.,- May '23. The Yale
Princeton championship baseball game here
to-day was one of the hardest fought strug
gles for supremacy that the two teams'have
ever had. When defeat seemed inevitable
for Yale tho Princeton men became rattled,
and what should have been a score of one
to nothing in favorof Princeton was quickly
transformed into a score of 4 to 1 favor of
Ynle. For seven innings the Princetons had
the best of the game. Then in one inning
the erratic playing of two men cost Prince
ton the game. In the second inning Young
made a two-bagger with two men out and
scored on an error by Yale. In the eighth
inning King in trying to put a Yale third L
Daseraan out at nrst tnrew tue oan into tne
crow d and the gamo was tied. After that
tho Princeton men becamo demoralized.

IT WON'T BE' COPIED.
Referee Brewster's Decision Will Not Be
Taken as a Precedent.
Chicago, May 21. There need bono fear of
Referee Brewster's , decision in the Myer
Bo wen fight establishing a dangerous prece
dent, as no well-guided athletic association
orVell-informed stakeholder wiU dare to
follow'it. Mr. Brewster's. Judgment is the
worst case of not-guilty-but-don't-do-it-again
intho.recordsjof tho ring. Tt is impossible
to conceive a combination of1 circumstances
that would compel a referee to decide a con
test a draw on fouls. The reports that havo
been sent out from Now Orleans have Mvor
committing all the fouls. It may be possible
that something that would reflect upon the
fairness of Bowen's fighting lias been held
back.
If the contest had degenerated into a
rongh-nnd-tumble "scrap," then tho referee
should lmvo stopped it and called it no fight.
If Myerlosthishead in the engagement this
was tho first time that misfortune 'has over
taken him since he first donned gloves. His
friends in this section of the country ex
pected him to win in a wnlk. The possibility
that he might be jobbed out of it never
entered their minds, as they had every con
fidence in tho squareness of the Olympic
Club. There is something weirdly unusual
about the whole business-

The players from tho Hub are, so report has
it, very "fine swimmers and understand tho

naturally somewhat elated over their vic

What to Do With Tonr Eyes.
Prof "Little," formerly of Smithfield street
and Sixth avenue, is now permanently
located at No. 511 Penn avenue, where he
has every arrangement and facility for the
examination of eyes and the proper adjust
ment of glasses. His knowledge of the laws
of light, as pertaining to optics, has served
him in good stead in the arrangement of his
office where he examines eyes, as there is no
more perfectly lighled room for such pur
pose in this city.
Prof." Little makes the examination of
eyes a specialty, having devoted several
years in the studj of ophthalmology, and
optics as pertaining to the adjustment of
lenses for defective vision. He furnishes
glasses as well as examines the eyes, there
by assnming all responsibility which is
otherwise divided between the oculist and

CATARRH IN CHILDREN,
Children are as subject to catarrh as
adults, and much of the trouble Teferred to
other diseases, such as habitual headajene,
cough, worms, colic, etc., is ennsed by this
disease. They become weak and pnny, and
loot like little drfed-up old men and women,
when they should be sleek and fat and rosy.
Children who hnve become weak and puny
soon take on new life and gron th updor tha
combined local nnd internal treatment as
practiced by Dr. Byers. .
