THE- PITTSBTJRGr DISPATCH,- SUNDAY,- SEPTEMBER" v 6" 1891.
3-
HAD PLENTY OF FUN
Two Very Short and Lively Games
Played Amid the Mud, Rain
and Lots of Sawdust.
.TOUKG INKS WAS KNOCKED OUT.
Manager HcGunnigle Hays a Tery
Smart Trick fcj Putting Rosin
on the EcIL
THE BOSTOXS DOWN THE CHICAGOS.
An Eidtlntr Contest at Cindssitl Baseoall Kcws
of General Interest.
Had there not been some Tery tall hust
ling on the part of Manager McGunnigle
yesterday there would hare been no games
at all in Exposition Park. But there were
two played and the Brooklyns got one and
the local sluggers got the other. But again
Manager McGunnigle figured in the busi
ness, and had he not suggested a scheme
Brooklyn might have had both games. The
grounds ucrc awful wet; in fact, rain fell
, almost all the afternoon. The ball was very
difficult to handle, and in the second game
Baldwin could do little with it; so little
that five runs were piled up against him in
the second inning. Then Manager Mc
Gunnigle sent and got some rosin, and Bald
win had his pocket filled with it. Each
time before he pitched the ball he rubbed
its surface with the rosin. Then Mark be
gan to pitch in great form.
SHORT, BUT TIIEV COUNTED.
In each game only five innings were
played, and the crowd were indeed lucky to
get that much for their money. It is some
time since there was so much fun at a ball
game in Tittsburg, and if there was not
brilliant hall-playing there was plenty to
" interct the spectators, who numbered
about 3,000.
In the first contest Manager "Ward put
Inks in to pitch. He is a left-handed young
man trom the vicinity of it. Wayne. Dur
ing :he five innings "of "the contest he did
fairly well, hut there was always a danger,
and a great one, of the local sluggers
breaking him np. Had the full nine in
nings been played it seems safe to sav that
he would have been thumped very hard.
But as far as things vent he escaped all
right. The grounds were in a wretched
condition, and it was a surprise to many
that any game at all was played.
In the first inning King was not at home
with the wet ball, nor did the fielders get
down to good wort. After Collins was out
Pinckiiey made a little infield hit which
to safe. He stole second, and then Foutz
knocked out a fly which Hanlon caught.
Burns sent a grounder to Shugart and the
grounder was fumbled, and Burns " went to
second and Pinckney scored. Griffin was
nextv and banged out a two-basger to Jcft
field and Burns got home. In the next in
ning after Ely was out Daily and Inks each
made singles. Irks tried to make a double
out of his but failed, and Daily scored.
A GOOD EFrCKT.
In the third inning a ter Keilly was out,
Corkhill made a single and so -did King.
Bierbauer made a two-bascr and Corknill
scored, and Shugart's sacrifice scored King.
"When the sixth inning was just commenc
ing the rain began to fall in torrents and
time "was called. Finally the came was
called.
At o'clock after the bucket brigade and
sn wdut can icrs had been at tn ork lor nearly
an hour, the second game started. The
grounds were a complete puddle and many a
dive in the mud the players got. Inks was
again put in to pitch for the visitors, but tho
mistaken as soon discovered. In the first
inning; after two of the visitors were out,
Shugart's tumble allowed Foutz to reach
flrst and he scored on a long tw o-bagger by
Bnrns.
In the second inning matters looked disas
trous for the home team. O'Brien led off for
tho visitors and got his base on ball- Uler
"baiier' error allow cd Ely to rcacli first and
Daily's single, tilled the bases. Inks made a
single and O'Brien scored and m did Ely.
Inks got to second on a wild pitch and'a
muffed throw by Miller allowed Daily to
Ecore.
TIVE EUNS FOR BEOOKLYN.
Pinckney's base on balls, a life hit by
Foutz and a single by Burns, wittf the pre
ceding plays, netted five runs, and Baldwin
was very mad.
But the third inning came and the home
players bad II men at bat and scored seven
runs. This settled it. It would be weari
some to tell how the runs were made, as
errors w ere the chief factors. During the
inning Miller made two singles, Shugart had
two bases on balls, Hanlon made a two-bagger,
Bierbauer made a single and so did
Lally, Keilly was hit by a pitched ball, there
were two fielding errors and a passed ball
una a sacrifice hit.
In the next inning two more runs were
made by the home players. Lally made a
double and Eeilly made a single. These, i 1th
two wild pitches scored the runs. A base
on balls, a passed ball, a single by O'Brien
netted the visitors a run in the second half.
At tbe end of the fourth inning the visi
tors tried their best to prolong the game
until darkness or rain came before the ntth
Inning was nnisned. But McQuaid insisted
on the game continuing, and tue fifth inning
was finished amid rain. The game was
called just as the sixth inning was commenc
ing on account of darkness. The score:

Now a Monarch.
McGunnigle is still monarch or all ho sur
veys in Pittsburg. Tho Smoky City team
continues to play In a way that is disheart
ening to all opponents. Hanlon has been
relegated to the bench. He was playing a
good game, hut McGunnigle claimed that
Ned was hindering his (McGnnnigle's)
etTorts to get good ball out of the team.
Whatever the merits of the case. O'Neil
and McGunnigle havo carried the day, and
that sets local patrons wild with delight.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP.
The Qreat Crlcfcet Match Definitely Ar
ranged to Take Place This Week.
New Yoiik, Sept. 5. The date for the final
game of the Inter-city Grfoket League has
been finally aocepted by Chicago, the cham
pion pf the West, and the match will ba
played on September 11 and 12 on the
Krounds of the Belmont Cricket Club, at
Elm wood, with Philadelphia, the champion
of the East.
'Great excitement has been aroused In the
contest, and the recent dofeatsof the Ger
mantown and Belmont clubs by the Chica
go eleven have materially weakened Phila
delphia's confidence, and they now realize
that their very best eleven will have to be
placed in the fields securethe victory. The
capiainsof the Philadelphia clubs mc: on
weunesuay ana scieccea ino ionowing team
toropresent them:
W. Brockie, captain; G. S. Patterson, F.
H. Bohlen, H. I. Brown and F. W. Ralston,
Jr., of Gormantown: Crawford Coates, A.
M. Wood and F. L. Altemus, Belmont: Sud
erlandLaw and H. P. Baily, Merion, and P.
Butler, Philadelphia.
This is a most powerful team, and could
be improved only by R. D. Brown, who Is
now in Europe, and E. W. Clark, Jr., who is
recovering fiom a severe illness. It is pos
sible that W. Brockie may not be able to
play,, in which case F. Welsh, Jr.,, will ho
added to tho team.
Chicago has also got a splendid team to
gothor,as may bo seen from the following:

Kelly, H. a Wright, Bradlev, nnd J. G.

An
Authority Speaks About American
Football Players In Scotland.
A prominent English football authority
sums up the team of American and Canadian
football players now in Scotland as follows:
"The 14 American Scoto-Ainerican team
havo lost no time since their arrival in the
commercial metropolis or Sootland; no sight
seeing, but all work and preparation for
their campaign in the land of the mountain,
the flood and football. They, with their
manager, Mr. Ellis, appear dally in combina
tion at Hampden Park, the home 'of the
Queen's Park Clnb, and there they, knock
the leather around for all it is worth.
"Thefndividual.members, too, put in a lot
of single handed training on the pretty
track, and express themselves as delighted
with the ground and its surroundings. Sur
reptitious visits have been mado to tbe
ground while the Americans are at practice,
but no such care is at aU necessary, the visi
tors making no secret of their work in any
way whatever. They are candid and free,
ana answer all questions as to details of
whatever description'without the slightest
reserve. Seen at play they look light of
build and are not at all of the make or
weight of the usually heavily built Scottish
combinations. They are of course very
smart, and should their passing and play
heat those whom they have tcimeet, whether
in tho North or South, the innovation will bo
nothing short or a revelation. It will be
interesting to see how the rorwards will
stand the charges of the heavier brigades,
while the backs must be full of play to
tackle the orthodox, weighty fellows they
will have to meet."
HAMH0ND EASILY BEATEN.
The McKeesport Man Defeats Him In a
Tery Onesided Contest.
There was quite a surprise as a result of
the foot race at Homewood Park yesterday
afternoon between Tom Hammond and
Patrick Morrissey. The latter was in re
ceipt of three yards' start from Hammond,
but the fact Is that tho concession ought to
have been the other way. Hammond was
backed by the Brownsville party, and Mor
rissey's support camo from McKeesport.
Tho race was for 500 a side, and probably
$3,000 wero invested on the outside at odds
ranging from 6 to 4 to 6 to 4 on lorrissey.
Tho coal 'miners who backed Hammond
backed their man to their last dollar.
The track was in wretched condition, and
the Morrissey party in measuring the dis
tance wero a little too smart for the Ham
mond people in all respects, and Morrissey
got a good start. But that was immaterial,
as Hammond had no more chance to win
than a ppodlo dog has of beating the Chicago
limited. Pat Connolly was referee and a
well-known sporting man pistol firor.
. The men were off amid lots of mud, but bo
foro 25 yards were run Hammond was "out
of it," and nearly stopped. From that stage
on the affair was a farce, and the sturdy coal
miners went home completely broken. No
time was taken.

Asia well known, I nnnounced my retire
ment after tbe draw with John L. Sullivan.
It is equally well known my hands in that
fight were considerably damaged, else well,
no matter. I have not, it must he admitted,
got very good tools to work with, but to
show how Khrhlv 1 valuo Corbett's abilities
as a pugilist, I will fight htm for X 1,000 with
Lnsts. andnoblufnmr.
It Vvni. nnt mv intention to fln-ht ftmtln . T
have dono my share; but when in my retire
ment; people imagine .uucueu win stana
"cat" and allow them to issue boastful ohal

to show the public that there is still ono left
in England anxions to uphold the honor of
the old country in any shape or form. That

HEARST'S FAST YACHT.
His Little Steam Wonder Vamoose
Shows Bemarkable Speed,
BY BEATING THE BIG HOMOUTH
A Tery Exciting Bace Between the Two
Boats in New York Eay.
PEEPABED NOW FOE HONfiOE'S NORWOOD
CSPZCIAI. TELEGEAII TO TBI DISPATCH.
Hew Yoke, Sept. 5. W. B, Hearst's
steam yacht Yamoose, formerly known as
the Herres'hoff boat No. 1C6, hada fast trial
down the bay to-day. She fully came up to
the expectations of those on board, and sur
prised all who saw her steam through the
water. The day was not a favorable one
for a fast trial. The wind was blowing hard
from" the eastward, the water was lumpy
and a disagreeable rain was falling.
Fgr several dnys Mr. Hearst has been
aching for a spin with the Monmouth, the
fast boat belonging to the Central Railroad
of 27ew Jersey, that runs down to Sandy
Hook. A few days ago Mr. Monroe's boat,
the Norwood, beat the Monmouth easily,
and as there is a likelihood of the Norwood
and Vatnoos'e racing together,. Mr.'Hearst
has been anxious to get a line on the Mon
mouth. The Vamoose is not yet keyed .up
to racing form. Mr. Hearst has been trying
several urODellers. and to-dav he used the
Zeice wheel.
TACKLING THE MONMOUTH.
' Just after passing the big boat's dock the
"Monmouth steamed out and started for
Sandy Hook. "When fairly under way on
her journey she was about a quarter of a
mile astern of the Vamoose. The Herreshoff
wonder was slowed down a little in order to
allow the Monmouth to catc.i np. The
Vamoose was going then at the rate of
18 miles an hour. When off Bay Ridge the
Monmouth was just level with the Vamoose,
to the starboard of her. The engineer then
opened her np a .little, and for a few mo
ments the two boats steamed along side by
side.
The excitement on the"Monmouth among
xne passengers was intense. Although it
was raining hard, thev crowded the hurri
cane and main decks, and many wefe
crowded on the lower deck. All were
watching the white steam yacht. The pres
sure of steam was increased on the Vamoose
and Bhe darted away from the big Sandy
Hook steamer. The Monmouth was doing
her best, but slm was being beaten. Mr.
Hearst then said he was satisfied with this
test, and as the weather was so unpleasant
would not venture down the bay any fur
ther. EXCHANGE OF COTrKTESIES.
Then Skrpper Stanswood thought the pas
sengers on the'. Monmouth had not had a
good enough look at her, and standing over
toward .the Coney Island shore, took a long
sweep around the steamer, thus crossin? her
bows. The Captain of the Monmouth gra
ciously acknowledged his defeat by giving
three toots from the whistle, and as the
little boat ran by the steamer the passengers
waved their hats and handkerchiefs and
gave the Vamoose three cheers. This was
answered from the Vamoose bv three
whistles and a waving of hats. Hfe Va-
uiuose wen come dkck to Hie cuy.
The entire distance run was 11 H miles.
For half that journey the Vamoose pro
ceeded at only half speed, yet the time
occupied was only &k minutes 38 seconds.
The Vamoose raced with the Monmouth
from Bay Bidge. to Hoffman Island, about
5 miles, and covered the distance in 14
minutes 48 seconds, and in that time beat
the Monmouth more, than a quarter of a
mile. The engineer says that at no time
during the trip was she doing her best, and
when going her fastest she had about iO
pounds steam pressure in reserve. . ;

Short Paragraphs of Interest to All and
Some Proven Facts FoIIott.
Is the hands of men who are trained phy-'
sicians, aid educated and experienced elec
trical experts as well, electricity becomes
the safest, surest and most potent agent for
relieving sutTerlng and healing disease that
modem science has developed ana brought
into perfection,
To OETArw riestrAr! rpmlt3 from medicines.
drags must be carried through the body. To
connne their action to any one point is inv.
possible. Electricity can bo localized to a.
muscle or nerve or any one organ.
Electricity ismore frequently used for the
cure of rhenmatism and paralysis than any
other diseases because or its instant roUef
from pain audits permanent benefit.
Iw this anxious, hurrying age, to no class
or sufferers has our method proved ofgreater
benefit thnn to those afflicted with sleep
Icssnoss, hysteria and allied nervous affec
tions. Is diseases or tho skin our treatment ob
tains the most rapid and brilliant results."
In nearly all coses or chronic forms on dif
ferent parts of tbe body there is immediate
relief or distressing pain and ultimate cure
aftera course of treatment.
RxriD recoveries follow electrical treat
ment of goitre or abnormal swelling or the
thyroid gland near Adam's apple.
Ern.ErSY.is one of the diseases curable by
the proper application of electricity, com
bined with skillful medical treatment..
Is there any uncertainty about tbe use of
electricity by skillful physicians? No. Its
effects are simnle, less complicated and more
natural than those of drugs.
Ix many cases of cancer, pronounced In
curable, electrization makes complete and
radical cure.
There is as much difference between a
skillful and an awkward application or elec
tricity as there is between a skillful and an
awkward operation in surgery.
Fkail and delicate patients suffering for
years from valvular disease of the heart,
brought on bv Inflammatory rheumatism.
find relief and cure by olectrization.
Catarrh of long standing yields readily to
electricity when combined with skillful
medical attention.
Electricity is particularly effective in the
cure of piles. It relieves tho pain and itch
ing at once, and a few applications result in
complete cures.
The terrible torture of neuralgia Is In
stantly stopped and permanently cured by
tbe proper application of electricity.
l!f nervous diseases some authorities
maintain that electricity accomplishes its
most brilliant results. Wo believe, however,
that this is because the results in nervous
diseases are often the most immediate and
apparent, and because a good result is as
sure I In almost every case of this class of
troubles.
The results In our experience which havo
seemed tbe mi. at remarkable have been in
cases or paralysis, chronic, rheumatism and
consumption, which have been pronounced
lpcurable and given np to die.
We obtain from electricity permanent
tonic and sedative effects that are far more
wonderful even than its primary stimulating
effects. It must be borne in mind that it
supplants by its superiority as a remedial
agent the use of many drugs. "
IT IS CONVINCING.
Prominent People Who Are Cnred by the
Physicians of the Electropathlc Institute.
Mr. Thomas McGreevcy, residing at Port
Perry, in speaking of his recovery, said:
"Catarrh and catarrhal deafness mado my
life miserable- The discharges from my
ears were large and most distressing. My
head ached all the time. I had stomach'
trouble and my food distressed me. My
nervous system was completely shattered.
Thomas McOreevey, Port Perry, Pa.
"I had about given up all hope of get ting
cured, when my attention was called to
the Electronathlc Institute, of 07 Penn.
avenue.
"I called on the physicians In charge, and
after making a carctnl diagnosis of my case,
pronounced It 'curable. The result has
amply verified their verdict. My deafness,
catarrh, stomach trouble and nervous affec
tion have all disappeared. In fact, stating
it briefly, I am cured."
Paralysis Cared.
"I can scarcely describe my sufferings
since I was stricken with paralysis ovor Ave
years ago.'.' said Mrs. John Fields, residing
at 30i Beaver avenue, Allegheny.
"I could not move without assistance. My
body and feet were cold asice.For 14 months I
was bedridden. EvcrythingltriedfaUed. As
a last resort I concluded to try electrical
treatment as applied by tbe physicians of
the Electropathic Institntc.SOTPenn avenue.
"Tbe first treatment I received enabled me
to lift mvarm, something I bad not done for '
six months before I improved gradually
until now I can walk around unassisted. I
unhesitatingly recommend these physicians
and their methods."
Chronic Rheumatism Cared.
Mr. J. Palmer, ono of Pittsburg's most
estimable citizens, living on Lawn street,
near Craft avenue. Fourteenth ward. In
giving his statement, said:
"Every muscle and nerve throbbed wlta
pain that was almost unbearable. My
movements were attended with excruciat
ing suffering. I consulted the physicians of
tho Electropathiu Institute, who said my
case was one or chronic rheumatism, and
nssnred me they could cure me. Tbelr
promise Is fulfilled beyond my highest ex
pectations, and I have only words of praise
to offer In their behalf."
Years of Suffering.
Tor more than Ave years I suffored as I
did not think it possible for a human being
to suffer and live," said Mrs. Mary J. Con
fer, of No. U3Lacock street. Allegheny.
"I was flrsfstrlcken with rheumatism. To
this wa soon added the pains and twinges
of neuralgia. Then insomnia, or sleepless
ness, augmented my other Ills, and I was hi
a state bordering on frenzy. AU remedies
seemed powerless to aid me.
"As ft forlorn hope I determined to try
electricity; and applied to tbe physicians of
the Electropathic Institute.
To make a long storv sh ort, a f ter a regular
course of treatment I am entirely cured ox
all my troubles."
