Aug. 13 The Phillies made it three straight iroui Pittsburg to- dat.inthe most eiciting and best-played game of the scries. Baldwin pitched as if hi lite depended upon the result, but the Quakers managed to lump three of the set en hits in the sixth inning, which, with a fumble and a wild pitch, yielded three runs, enough to win the game. Eper pitched the first six innings and started the seventh, when, after Mil ler hit safely, he retired. Three hits had been made oil him, and in the eighth the visitors secured three more off Thorn ton. The fielding of the Phillies was superb, Myers' miss of Corkhill's erounderin the fifth being the only crrot charged against them. Tittsburg's fielding -was rather ragged, but onlj one or the errors outside of those made by Baldwin show ed any ellect on the score CRFnrr fob bill miowx. To Bill Brow n is due the greater part of the credit for the l'nillies" run getting. With tvto on Inses m the sixth ho rapped out a two-bagger to left center, tt hich was as clean as a whittle and scored both men and s-coring himself on Rcillj's fumlle of Ma cis" grounder and a wild pitch. While Brown de-erves credit for the part he took in the scoring, the brilliant work o'f Hamil ton. Clements and Thompson, which pie i en ted Pittsburg from tielng, if not winning, in the seventh deserves mention Hamil ton's catc'i of Millers fl and his throw to JJie plate was a brilliant play. If lhe throw hail been the least bit wide.'or if lenient s hud huwn anv w eakness, Hanlou would hae scored. Bferbaucr's fly was a low liner to right, which a less capable fielder than Thompson would hate missed, in which eent oui name would have been Dennis. That seventh inning was probably the most eciting witnessed here this sea son and at it conclusion the crowd gae tent to its enthusiasm in one prolonged cheer. The Phillies broke ice in their half of the fifth Brown was sent to first on balls and ntJvHiieed to second on Ma cr's sacrifice, Baldwin to Beeklej. l.spcrwas sent to first em bulls. Hamilton followed with a sharp rap toward third, for which Keilly made a play, but only succeeded in breaking the Jorceof the ball, which rolled salely into left center, and Brown came in EVENED MATTERS IT Thompson filed to Coikhill and Delahantv wasthiownout b Bieibauer The Pirates evened things up in then half Carroll led off w ith a double to center, although from the stand it looked as though Delahanty had it. Reillj then came tip and gate a com prehensive exhibition of bunting. He had one strike called, bunted 11 files, and finally bunted one fair on which he was thrown out at first by Majer, Cairoll going to third. orkhill poked one straight at Mters who at ent dow n after it but came up with a hand ful of grass instead of the ball and Carroll scored Baldwin followed with a grounder to s.indle who missed but the ball lolled di rectly to Mter who was standing on second which retired Coikhill and Myer- got the ball to first ahead I Baldwin The Phillies went to the front in the sixth. Clements besran with a fly to Corkhill Myers and sinndlo then made 6in jles to left, and bothscoied on Blown s double to lett center Brown went up to third on Beillj's fumble of Mayer's grounder, and scored on a wild ptch Espei strui K nut and Hamilton was throw n out bt Bieibauer The Pittsburgs at cnt out in oi der in the sixth.

LOTS OF GOOD CHANCES Ecilly was thrown out by Myersand Cork hill was retired by Thornton. Pittsburg hid all the chances in thowoild to win in the eighth Baldwin, with three balls and fw o -trikes, put up a double against the cen ter field fence In backing for this ball Delahanty ran into the cross piece and had to retire, Gray taking his place Hanlon followed with scratch single Bald wi.i going to third. Shngait sent a pretty speedy one into left, and Baldwin came m. Beck ley reached first on balls This filled the bases, and, as there was no one out, things looked rnther blue for the Phillies, but luck, combined w ith good play, pulled them out. Miller filed to Hamilton and Hanlon started for home Hamilton made a splendid throw to Clements, and Hanlon was put out, al t! oiigh ne might have saved himself b .'iding.

They hate a shade the best of it, as they are homeward bound and next week the Eastern clubs will come West. Philadelphia is making a game fight of it, while the Cleveland aie weakening, mostly because of their lack of good pitchers. The tailenders seem to be doomed to their posi" 1 ions.

THE OOTFIELD IS AWFULLY WEAK Mayer Will Be Retained by Harry Wright and Some Fun Is Threatened. CHANGES TO BE MADE IN THE TEAM. SPECIAL TELEGllAM TO THE DISPATCH. PniLADKLrHiA, Aug. 15. The thieo straight defeats by the Phillies has put Manager Mc Gunmgle, of the Pittsburg club, in ant thing but a pleasant frame of mind. He knows the w eaxness of his team, and is doing all in his pow er to remedy it. After to-Mny's game he went into a long disscitation on where. and by what means the club was losing so many games. Said lie: "It is our outfield that is weak and from that one cause alone w e are suffei ing. What we want is three good men that can hit the ball, cot er some ground and throw the ball further than the infield. Had we these I am sure we w ould make a better showing. Lots of little hits go oi er the infield that should be easy chances for the outfielders, and this thing of playing pitchers and catchers out there is all a mistake. I now have a good man in center, and when Majcr Joins us lteiliy will go into the outfield. This, I think, will make us much stronger. Our pitchers are doing good work and no fault can be lound with the infield. They are also HITTING HARD ENOUGH, but it is that one weakness that not only de moralizes the pitchers but breaVi up the whole team. Theio will be several changes in the club, but Just ti hat they are I am not at liberty to state Just now. President O'Xcil has been here with us and we have talked matters over at gieat length and the changes will be made just as soon as we re turn home. Theieisno truth so far as I know, in the rumors that aie now going the rounds as to the release or ccitain players and in fact we may change" our minds again so that j ou cin state that nothing definite has been arranged. Mjinager McUunuigle is determined to get good work out of the team and he will not sutler anything to stand in his wray. The men arc not pulling together and no one knows it better than he does although he will not admit it openly. President O'Neil was highly indignant after to-day's game w hen he learned that Manager Wright, of the Philadelphia club, had determined upon retsining Mater. It now transpires that Mayer did not sign any contract nor oven agree to terms as was stated. All that was said or done was to give him their terms and tell him that ho could play In Pittsburg if he so desired. WILL DO SOME ntOTESTINO. Mr. O'Xeill evidently thought that Mayer would accept and took it for granted and gave it out that he bad signed. Xow when he sees a really good plaer slipping away he gets mad and threatens all kinds of things. "I ti ill protest every game he plays with the Philadelphia club after next Tuesday, when his ten days expires" was the wav he greeted j our coriespondcnt. "I have it by two witnesses that Maj er agreed to our terms and he w ill play with us or I will know the reason why. Sharp practice that atter I bad arranged everj thing and just be cause they were unforiunate. But that does not end the matter, by any means, and I shall call upon John 1. Rogers to settle this point. I have never failed to get any thing that I went after, and this shall not be tne first time.' Lack of time was the only reason, per haps, that prevented the genial President from saying more, for the last words were uttered lust as hestenncd aboard the 9-20 express West, and it pulled out of the sta tion.

Colonel McCormick. through his friend Judson, discovered that It was the height of folly to buy a new suit of clothes every time his old ones became a little worn, and that tlm proper caper would be to take them to DICKSOX, the Tailor, corner Fifth avenue and Wood street, who cleans, repairs nnd renovates old garments bo as to make tlfem look like new at a trifling cost.

HEXKY AUCTIOX CO., aulS-110 Auctioneers. DEAD TO SWEET SOW. Remarkable Recovery of Hearing Through Electricity. SIMPLE, POSITIVE PROOF Of the Superior Skill of the Physi cians of the Electropathic Insti tute at 507 Penn Avenue. "Jly occupation is that of a railroad brnkeman, but oflate my health has been so poor that I have been unable to work at anything." The speaker was Thomas Me Grcevey, a young man well and favorably known at his home in Port Perry, Pa. "I have had catarrh for years, and catarrhal deafness also. I have suffered untold ago nies of mind and tortures of body, and I want to make known to the public and all sufferers, that I have been cured of a seem ingly hopeless disease by the physicians of the Electropathic Institute, at 507 Pena avenue, Pittsburg. Thomas McOreeiry, Fort Perry, Fa. "My case of catarrh, as I have said, was ot some years standing and a most aggra vated case, and had resulted in deafness, unfitting me formy business. The discharges from my ears were large and most distress ing, and my ears presented a very unsightly and unpleasant appearance. My bead ached nearly all of the time, the disease had so affected my stomach as to seriously im pair my digestion and my nervous system was almost ruined. I knew no rest from trouble night or day. "The constant strain on me had com pletely broken me down. 'Did I endeavor to get cured?' I Iiad tried nearly every thing and doctored with and CONSULTED TIIE LEADING SPECIALISTS on catarrh and ear diseases. They would profess to be able to cure me, but none of them seemed to understand my case, how ever, and this treatment instead of curing me seemed in reality to aggravate my case. I almost despaired of ever being any better, when my attention was attracted to the Electropathic Institute of 507 Pcnn avenue, Pittsburg, and its method of treatment. "I called on the physicians in charge and they made an electrical diagnosis of my case, discovered the true nature of the disease and pronounced it curable. The re sult has verified their verdict. I am cured. Every one of my horrible symptoms are gone, and I feel like a new man. My catarrh, my deafnes and the discharges from my "ears are thoroughly cured. My general health is better than it has been for years, and my exhausted nervous system has been completely built up, and, in fact, I AM A WELL MAS and have been able to resume ray occupa tion and suffer no inconvenience whatever from my old trouble. I cannot too highly commend the physicians of the Electro pathic Institute for their skill and science, their perfect and varied electric appliances and their intelligent use of them, as shown in mv desperate case." This voung man is, as has been said, very favorably known- in the village of Port Perry, and his rapid and complete recovery from an apparently incurable disease of years standing has given great surprise as well as much pleasure to his numerous friends there. A GREAT SIXGER'S ATJXT. Bcmarkable Recovery of an Aged Belative or the Great Evangelist, Ira Sankey, De scribed by Herself. "I suffered constant and unremitting pains for years. Consulted and was treated by different doctors, in vain. Tried the elec trical treatment as administered by tho phsiciansot the Electropathic Institute, 507 Penn avenue, and, as a result, my trouble has disi ppeared," said Jlrs. M. A. Sankey, aunt of the gieat evangelist, Ira Sankey, ro sidingat 115 Lacock street, Allegheny. Afr. 21. A. Sankey, IIS Lacock street, Allegheny. "My throat wns the part most affected. I suffered terrible pains, both sharp and dull. It felt as though a band of iron was tightly bound around it. I could scarcely speak without the effort causing mo pain. To swallow caused me great suffering, and the food I attempted to swallow would nearly choke me. The act of chewing my food wa3 attended with almost unbearable pain. "I had some of the best physicians in the two cities attending me, yet they all were in doubts as to my true ailment. They did ever thing In their power yet I steadily grew worse and worse. Together with the above trouble, 1 suffered greatly from neu ralgic pains, supplemented by nervous pros tration, until I became so bad that I shared the belief of my friends that I would never regain my health. "I at last decided to seek tho assistance of the ph sicians of the Electropathic Institute at 507 Penn avenue, to alleviate, if possible, my sufferings. "Their first treatment was followed by marked improvement, and in a short time mv nalns. aches and aliments disappeared as if by magic. Althongh 83 years old, I am en joying as good health to-day as ever before in my life." Mojatl Iiiti, 507 PENN AVE., PITTSBURG, PA. (Do not mistake the number.)
