Trj- as hard as they misht the Pittsburgs could not win a game Irom Jioston on mis trip. To-day they made a gallant struggle, but their brace availed them nothing, al though they made as many base hits and earned as many runs as their oppo nents. Just before the i time for the game to com mence a violent thunder shower passed over the city, flooding the grounds, and making the prospects of a game so dubious that only 578 persons passed the turnstile. A liberal siinDlv of sawdust made the pronnd presentable, and the game was tai ted 25 minutes late. The Bostons started off ith o rush, and scored three runs In the iirs. inning on two hits and two battery errors. Only one of the runs was earned. "tScntle Jeems" was responsible' for the other two. mitN'T BOTHER JIMMY. KM that didn't seem to bother the old man si bit. Ke kept on pitching as ir nothing had happened and the Bostons didn't fathom his mysterious curves to any extent, until the s-eVcnth inning. Then tho hits began to roll up and the Bean Eaters increased their score to seven, tho last three runs being earned. The gum-; had become very interest-Ji-e l:More that singeing began. The lad", frorc 1'ittt.burg bad passed the word ni-ound to dowr the Bean Eaters. Tneii old comrade Staley was doing tho tt'iMi-A-r or the Boton. Ilanlon wa first to lace him.

Miller was forced by i-iprbatt-T ftnd the two hits availed them rothing. Jn the fourth inning they had n ore hard: luck. Miller and Bierbauer led oiT"itl Int.- and Carroll sacriflceJ. Reilly v.a. hit by the ball and the baes were filled with nl- one man out. Maul hit to Ixing, ond Miller was nailed at the plate. Then ;:ilvin bit to Nah, and Iteilly died at third. Thus v. a another GliAMl OrPOKTfKITY LOST. In the lifth lining. Brother Stalcy was touched up for four single hits and Ilanlon and Miller scored earned runs. Beckley wa put oat at the plate and Bierbauer and Car roll were left on bases. The audacious lads from Muofcy City tied the score in the sixth Inning and there was gnashing or teeth on the grand stand. With two men out Itun lun, Vbttgnrt and Beckley Hit safely, the lat ter beinga two-b:iggei.and tho first two men i-cored earned runs. That lusilade of hits convinced 'Manager Sccloe that Stnlcy was not a phenomenon with his former com rades, and "Kid" Nichols was sent to pull the game out or the lire. The first man to face htm was Bierbauer and lie hit safely. Everybody trom Tittsburg smiled, but the smile didn't last. That was the only bit made after Nichols stepped into the box. The Bostons made a brace in the eighth In ning and broke the tie and won the game. Following is the .-core: BOSTOX 11 B !

A very interesting ball game was played at Bndgeville yesterday afternoon between the East End Gymnastic Club and Bridge vill teams. The contest virtually decided the question as to what team will win the County League pennant this season, ns, if BridgcYille had won. the two teams would have been tied for first place. But they were beaten, and it may safely bo said that the Gyms will get the pennant. The attendance was good, and a large number of Bridgeville's belles were present, and their enthusiasm was unbounded. They pulled heartily for their team, but their beroos were completely outplayed. The East Enders wero in great form, and played an errorless game as lar as fielding was concerned. They also thumped the ball out, Cargo, the demon little hitter, making two clean home runs. Frank Barr also bad his eye on the ball. Altogether Callihan was hit hard andat the right time. Thompson pitched in great form up to the eighth inning, when ho somewhat weak ened. Up to that point only two bits bad been mado off his delivery. But in that inning be was touched up for four good bits. Patterson, while trying to steal second, had his shoulder dislocated. He was replaced by Jones. The Gyms outplayed their op ponents at evcrv point, and that tells the story. They really played a good game. The scoro: E. E. GYM. X B P A EjBRIDGEV'E. R B I).

The directors of the local ball club have finally resolved to act in something like a wise manner. They have been late in doing so, but better late than never. They intend to sign four new players this week, and one of the directors stated last evening that the four new faces will be here Monday. The new men arc: Inks, a pitcher now at Dulutb. Guy Ilecker emphatically contends that he is a wonderful left-banded pitcher, and better than Ramsey when the latter was at his best. The second man is Frank Ward, of Minneapolis, an inneldcr of agreat repute; Grim, a catcher and Inflelder, of Milwaukee, and Dell Darling, now catching for the Minneapolis team. These werethe players that negotiations were going on for yester day according to one of the gentlemen inter ested. This determination on the part of the directors will be hailed with delight by the local baseball patrons. It is a step in the rignt direction, because the great weakness has all along been more in the players than anything else, and hod more attention been devoted to this fact and less to personal whims tho team would not have been in last place now. The directors arc too good a class of citizens to lose money, and there Is plenty of time even yet for them to save themselves. The public cannot well do other than support them when they are heroic enough to plank up $2,000 for four new men. If the new men como somebody, of course, will be released, but so far nothing definite has been settled on that point, except what everybody knows, viz, that two or three of tho weakest players will have to go. It is not very likely that Miller will be released this season, at least until a llrst class out fielder is secured. Miller is undoubtedly a better man than Reilly for the outfield, tak ing into consideration his hitting and gen eral qiuiiities. But if the new men come here and aro satisfactory, patrons of the team can enily guess who will be released, undone of the men to go may be a promi nent pitcher. Last evening a telegram was received from Inks stating his terms and asking for money to bo wired him and he would leavofor Pitts burg at once. His terms were accepted, and the money may be sent him to-day. TYas Lively All Around. Scottdale, Aug. 12. A lively game of base ball was played here this afternoon between the Ladies club of New York, and the local team, the latter winning by a scoro of 18 to 17. There was present tho largest crowd of the season, fully 1,800 spectators taking the game in. The features of the game were heavy batting among tho players, and scientific slugging among the spectators. Fully a dozen lights occurcd, and numerous knockdowns among the spectators enlivened tho game greatly, although the fair players were greatly alarmed. A man named Gard ner, from Connelsville made some remark to which local toughs took exceptions, and Gardifcr was knocked down and beaten into insensibility. Miss Casey, the' girl who came from Greensburg with the clut), intending to play, was not allowed to enter the club here. The Jilauks Win Again. SrEClAt TELEGRAM TO TUB DISPATCH, j CosxELLSViLLs, Aug. 12. TheMauksdidnp the Alverton team here to-day by a score of 6 to 1.

Rochester, Aug. 12. By starting early and keeping the horses going till dark the entire card for the second day of the grand circuit meeting was disposed' of this after noon after 14 heats were trotted and paced. The sudden fall in the thermometer made it pleasanter for the spectators,but the patron age fell oft considerably by the opening. Besides the regular events there was a good mile by the Buffalo team, Globe and Jus tina, to" skeleton wagon, with Gcers driving. The pair went to the half in 1KX. nnd after Justina made n few skips they finished in 2:16X; last quarter In 33 seconds. Once more tho ovents proved expensive to talent, as three of the favorites were de feated, and Hal Pointer, the only one to come off, was quoted at too long for any chance to get even. The Seer came out full at speed for the 2:21 class, left unfinished after two heats, to-day and ho captured two more offhand with nothing near enough to be dangerous.

PAITI'S NEW THEATER In Her Craig-y-Nos Castle Opened in Most Brilliant Style. THE DIVA IN WONDERFUL VOICE, Charms a Distinguished Audience in Travi ata and Fanst. DAT OP TRIUMPH FOR THE SONGSTRESS BY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.! Castle of Craig-Y-Nos, Wales, Aug. 12. Adelina Patti threw open her new theater to the world to-night. The occasion added another to the successes of her life and marked their culmination. From morning until midnight was a continuous festivity. Everything passed off as ar ranged. There was not a hitch or an un toward event. Patti was everywhere all day, taking the deepest interest in every thing and everybody and beaming with smiles. The greatest interest in the affairhasbeen shown in the vicinity of the castle for the last few weeks. Trains arrived throughout the day, especially provided for the guests, and 'the castle and theater were filled with people. Among the arrivals were Sir Hussey Vivian and Lady Hnssey Vivian; the Marquis of Anglesea, the Count de Lisle, Mr. and Mrs. Beard, Au gustus Spaulding, Mr. and Mrs. Klein, Mr. Marcus A. Mayer, Mile. Valda, the distin guished prima donna; Mrs. Terris, of the Lyceum Theater; Mr. and Mrs. Arditi, and Mr. Lely, the rising young tenor. a brilliant scene. It is needless to say a splendid audience was present and the scene in the body of the house rivalled in brilliancy that of the stage. Everywhere wero to bo seen rich dresses, jewels and flowers. Programmes, hand-painted, on yellow satin wore served to the guests. The drop scene having been set, Mr. Terris, who acted for Henry Irving, appeared upon the stage. His entrance was the signal for a burst of ap- ?lause. He expressed the regret Mr. rving felt for his enforced aDsence, which prevented him from show ing his appreciation lor Mme. Patti's transcendent tnlent as a singer and au ac tress, and from marking his strong sense of the allianoe of the music and the drama on an occasion so unique in operatic and theat rical annals. lie would have felt it to bo an honor to be present at the opening performance of the theater, which had sprung up at tho gener ous behest of the queen of song, in the heart of a wild Welsh valley, teeming with nature, and remote from the busy haunts of men, and in the beautiful house dedicated to the allied arts; to be privileged to hear the incomparable voice which ever bound its hearer with a. spell of wonder. Mr. Ter ris' speech was well received, and set every body in good humor, giving the keynote to the occasion. PATTI'S GRAND RECEPTION. The curtain rose on the first act of "Tra viata," with Patti as Yiolette, supported by Durward Lely as Alfredo. Patti was dressed In pink satin, trimmed with embroidery and roses, and she actually blazed with dia monds. The audience rose to their feet and greeted the diva with enthusiasm.the women with cries of affection. When Patti had overcome the emotion she folt at such a re ception, she put forth her powers as. an artist and displayed them to the greatest advantage. She never acted and sang witli greater skill and beaut, even surpassing her usual self. She was, moreover, supremely happy to night in being in possession of perfect voice. She never lost her artistic composuro after the first moment of emotion and from the timo Signor Arditi took his baton in hand, when the curtain fell amid a tumult of ap plause, the diva was repeatedly recalled and presented with magnificent floral tributes. "Arditis L"Ingcnui''was then performed and brought for tho time-honored conductor rounds of applause. A TRIUMPH IN FAUST. After a brief intermission, during which tho guests entertained themselves by in specting more closely than thej' had yet had an opportunity of doing the beautiful audi torium and foyers, the curtain was rung up on the garden sceno in "Faust." Patti, arrayed in plain white cashmere, looked the severely simple Marguerite to perfection, and her singing ol the familiar role sent the audience into raptures. Again and ngain was she recalled at tho close of the scene nnd she seemed supremely happy over the enthusiasm which prevailed ana tho com plete success with which her novel enter prise had met. On her final call before the curtain she was presented, on behalf ot her admiring guests, with a model of the theater, done in flowers, and with numerous other beautiful floral pieces and bouquets. The other art ists, including Nicolini as fhust, Valda as SYc&dand Jarla, and Nova rana Meplihtopheles, also received liberal floral tributes. Tho festivities will be continued Saturday, when a matinee performance will be giveu, in cluding portions of ':Martha" and "Romeo and Juliet." PATTI AS A HOSTESS. After this evening's performance was over the diva resumed her role of hostess. mingling with tho guests and having a cor dial smile and a shake of the hand for every one. Tho neighbors of tho fair songstress, who had now for tho first time heard her voice, were overcome with admiration, and Patti seemed to enjoy their naive expressions of surprise and fileosure even more than the moroconveu ionnl compliments showered upon her by the distinguished guests from abroad. The theater is lavishly decorated, pale blue tints predominating, with a toning of cream and gold. The names of tho great compoacrsare inscribed appropriatelyin the ceiling, and the curtain painting represents Patti in her favorite character of Semiramis, driving a chariot and pair.

In bis speech at Ply mouth yesterday, Mr. Balfour, besides out lining the provisions of the local Govern ment bill for Ireland, praised the patriot ism and self-sacrifice shown by the Liberal Unionists.

The malicious stories which they seem to enjoy circulating are as false as they possibly can be, but, as you know, the world likes to have a sensation, and as such they made my marriage. I cannot help all they say. You have met Sam. You know he is a nice fellow, andyoti would not find bim anything like a wild Indian us the public no doubt think.

THE WOBLD'S FAST TBAINS. Speed Made In England nnd Some of the Iron Flyers of America. New YorkSnn.l Notwithstanding the 6torics about trains running at 90 miles an hour in England, nothing of the kind is provided in the time tables of the London and Northwestern and Great Northern, which admittedly have the fastest scheduled trains in the kingdom. The fastest train on the Northwestern is the1 celebrated Scotch express, which makes the run of 400 miles from London to Edin burgh in eight and one-half hours. This is at the rate of 51.6 miles an -hour, allowing for stops. The Itoyal Blue line trains make the ru of 22G miles between Now York and Washington in five hours, which is at an averagepeed of 51.9 miles an hour, with corresponding allowances for stops. The Scotch express does better than 51.6 miles an hour between certain "stations. Its best, run is the 75 miles from Kueby to Crewe in 85 minutes, an average of 63"miles an hour. But the Koyal Blue line also makes some smart short runs. On the Bal timore and Ohio road, between Baltimore and "Washington, it averages 60 miles an hour for the greater part of the 40 miles, while the Heading and Jersey Central engi neers, in places, rush aloug at 75 to 80 miles an hour, and do it every day.

AIL THE USUAL SYMPTOMS PRESEST SPECIAL TELEGKAM TO THE DISPATCH. New Yop.k, Aug. 12. Hoso Bit el, 17 years old, had a mastiff which had never been known to do anything worse than chase the cats of the neighborhood. Hugo and the mastiff had always been on good terms, but about five weeks ago, when playing with the dog, the hoy was slightly bitten on the forehead and hand. He thought nothing of the bites, and did not even say anything to his parents about them. Last week he went over to Astoria to spend a few days with his cousin, P. J. Bernhardt? Soon after his arrival he seemed unwell and began to ask questions about dogs. He wanted to know who owned the dogs in the neighborhood, and what the dogs did and where they came from. His relatives felt no uneasiness about him until he told them on Tuesday he had been bitten by a mastiff. That afternoon he was taken with what the doctors now say is hydrophobia. "He was seized with convulsions," savs Mr. Bcinhardt, "at about 12:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, and began to bark like a dog and foam at the mouth. He jumped at every one who came near him and had to be knocked down with pillows and bolsters to bo kept from biting the members of the family." Dr. Hildbrand was summoned, and treated young Eitcl with morphine injections and chloroform, but from time to time the con vulsions reappeared. At night It was neces sary to tie the patient to his bed. The boy's father, Emtio Eitel, was notified immedi ately. He went to Astoria this morning and brought Hugo to his home. When the boy left Astoria he wos calm, but, according to Mr. Kcinhardt, he soon sniffed around the woodwork and put out his tongue like a dog. He would ask' for water, but at the sight of it he would be seized with con vulsions. On arriving in New York he became so violent that the police were notified and an ambulance was summoned. The boy was taken to the Presbyterian Hospital, where it was necessary to place him in a straight jacket and hand cuffs. He still barked like a dog, the doctors say. The house surgeon, Dr. Frank Hupp, said last night that he thought that the patient had improved since he had been in the hospital and that he was then quiet. The boy, it Is believed, is in the second stage of the disease. When rabies is furjad vanced, as it seems to be in his case, the patient is not expected to live more than three days. Young Eltelhnsbeen subject to epileptic fits for two years, and it is thought that this may be largely responsible for his present condition. He is a rail, raw-boned boy for his age, and it takes several men to handle him when he has a convulsion. KILLED BY A TEADf. One Man's Life Lost in Yesterday's Chapter of Accidents.
