lie Giants Uin Two Cam-s Paseball News of Gen
eral Intrrest.
Frrrnt tti coram to the DtRPATnt.i
Chicago, Sept. 2G. TJtiilly and Miller
were loth dumped out of thegame and still
the Pirates, somewhat crippled, fought
pally until darkness enveloped tlie park in
its somber mantle, and hen they checked
Anion's victorious march by slamming out
a bit and lieir.g the score. Xcarly ,",000
people Miff Pfefler lose the game lo win it
back in the sixth. Tliis Pittsburg scries lias
canned the hair of numerous cranks to turn
pray, and has soured many otherwise sweet
dispositions. Until the sixth inning the
game was about as exciting us a Baptist pic
nic Tp to that time each sido had scored
one run.
KEILI.Y r.tXCKED THEM.
It was iii the nasty sixth that Reilly
blocked third base, and threw his burly.arm
around Can-oil, who was sprinting for homo.
Cliff Anally broke away, and the ball beat
him out. McQuade ordered Reilly out of the
panic for interfering w ith a player, and gave
Carroll hi run. Then came the first grand
lick. The Pirates formed a circle around
McQnaid and argued, but tho umpire was
firm Itcilly must leave the game, and lenvo
It he did, while thr crowd veiled Itself hoarse
with delight. Miller drifted out to third, and
Mack went behind the pinto. Baldwin, who
thought McQuade was roasting hiin on balls,
left the box. and King pirptred to go in, but
Stark's temper cooled like a watermelon on
ice, and lie went in and finishod thegame.
In the seventh Miller wat Jerked on to the
bench. IIo popped up a little flv, which
Anson ran up tor. Ashe ran Miller drevf
111- glove out of his pocket, and deliberately
threw it at An-on. It fell short, and the
crowd went wild with rage. McQuade
ordered
THE STUMPY LITTLE PLAYER
to the bench, and despite McGunniglo's pro
test he cut theie, and Kins ambled out to
third. These exhibitions or questionable
ball playing lo-t tho Pirates many friends
they may hive had in the stiinu and every
body wanted to see them snowed nndcr, but
CorKl'.ill madea lucky hit in the eighth and
the score was tied. Chicago got one in the
llrst on singles by Rvan and Anson and
tacriflces by Coonev and Dalilon. Pittsburg
got one in the third on Bierbaucr's bao
on balls. Shugait's sacrifice and Jlil
ler's single, and in the sixth Mil
ler started otf with a single
and stole second on Kittredge, whose throw
ing to bates was very faulty Beckley bunted
safely and stole second on Klttredg'e. llan
lon struck out and Lallv pushed nn easy one
to Pfefler. Fritz wanted to catch Mil ler.at
the plate, and would have had him dead, but
lie threw like a madman, and the ball went
into the grandstand, two runs scoring.
Itcilly al-o hit safclv and Lally tnlllci, and
ReillV came in when Kittredge threw wild
to Pfefler.
THE LAST ANT! TIEIXG HUX
came from Haalon's base on halls, followed
by Mack's sacrifice and Corkhill's hit. In
their ha" c-.'the sixth Chicago amassed five
runs. McQuade made B'.ldwm cut the plate
in two. Dahlcn got lour bad balls, Anson
bit, Ca-roll pot his base on balls and the
sacks were full. Burns bunted and Miller
diopped tho ball, Dahlcn scoring, then
Pfefler smashed a hit into left and Anson
chaed over the rubber. It was hem that
Keilly interfered wlih Carroll. Schrivcr,
who replaced Kit tridge, in the seventh sac
rificed and Pfefler scored on Ryan's third
hit.
In the eighth Barns Hew ont to Shugart,
rfelfer struck out. Schriver shot nn a nV
thnt fell safo in the diamond and Hutchinson
ended the agony by shooting an easv one at
Baldwin. The score tells its own storv:

Tna contest for the Lengue pennant is
mom exettiug probably than it ever was.
The struggle between the.Chieago nnd Bos
ton.tcams is probably one of the most excit
ing that has been seen, and. no matter what
the result may be, many peoplo think
that Chicago has been favored against Pitts
burg. The latter arc making a wonderful
light, but their chances lor fifth place are
not good.

A NEW EEC0ED.
The Buffalo Bicyclist Slakes a Great Per
formance at tbo Contests.
Cuicaoc, Sept, 28. In tbe presence of 4,009
people C. IV. Domtge, of Buffalo, at tbe Park
Side track to-day, put up a new American
record for five miles in competition, and
came within IS seconds of tho five-mile
record made against time. His time for live
miles was J3 7. The former record w as H:30.
Domtgo's work was done in the last race of
tbe day, the flve-milo handicap, invitation
race for tbe Walker cup, valued at $500.
There were live starters, C. D. C-ttting and
IV. B. Toung at 350 yards, X. II. Vansioklen
at 300 yards, IL C. Kntselv at 273 yards, and
C. W. "Dorntge at the pole. Dorntge was all
alone, many weary turns, for it was no easy
task-to overtako the pace of men like Van
sickleu, Toung, -Cutting nnd Knisely.
He went reolutely to work, however,
cheered to the difficult task by the en th usias-
tic crowd of spectators, who were with him
throughout. And how he did go! The first
mile was rolled off in 2:44. the two miles In
o-31, three miles S:l", lour miles in IkO-L
Meantime the four others were putting upn
prettv raco together. At the end of tbo lftb
lap Dorntge bad reached the leaders, and a
race for blood began. Great was the excite
ment ns down tho stretch they came, now
one, now the other leading. Klnsoly, of the
Illinois club, crossed the tnpo perhaps six
inches in the lead, Dorntge two feot in front
of Cutting, and Young, tbe erstwhile
spurtcr, in tho fourth place. Such a shout
as went up lias seldom been beard on a race
"track, anil sucll an ovation as tbe Bnffuloito
received has seldom been equaled. Kinsely,
too, received an ovation.

Three-Mile, Foot Eace.
GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OP TEE DAT.
A large amount of work has been trans
act ed in connection with the "Western
Pennsylvania Football League, .during the
past week and all arrangements are now
completed for the opening of the season. A
most enthusiastic meeting was that which
took place in the Hotel Sculosser on
"Wednesday evening last, and it was the
general opinion of the representatives pres
ent that Association football would be
played around Pittsburgh and district this
year on a scale tbat it has never approached
before.
Tlie JJraddook representative informed
tho meeting that bis club would not be in a
position tojoin the league this season, wbilo
thoLawrencovllle clnb failed to send a repre
scntatlvo, so tbat the eight-club schedule
which Secretary Macpherson submitted to
tbo meeting proved to be useless.
Although that was tho last day on which
clubs wore allowed to send in tholr applica
tion for membership tho meeting declared
that,tho Lawrencoville club be given throe
more days to declare their intention, when,
if no communication was received from
them, tho Secretary should have full power
to draw up a slx-dub schccralo. Up to yes
terday they failod.to respond nnd the follow
ihg six clubs will now constituto the league
for this. seuson.
THELKAOUi! MAKEUP,
Pittsburg, Bloomfleld, McDonald, McKces
port. Homestead and Now C.'ifltlo. Tbo offi
cial feel assured that a six-club league will
be a much more successful organization
tbauif it bad byen composed of eight or
nine clubs. Last year there wero ton clubs
in the league, but before the season' was
half through it was found theie werenot
enough players for the number of clubs,
with the result that one or two of the tail
enders dropped out.
The above six clubs, however, aro all or
ganized on a sound foundation, and hnvo
put up the forfeit that' they will play out tho
season. Below Is given the schedule of
games as completed by(3Ir. Macpherson last
night. Tb. soason opens October 10 nnd
cIoes on January 1. During tho first hair
of the schedule tho clubs will be ensaged
with .their league fixtures every Sotnrday,
so that they may get as far advanced ns pos-
slblo in the competition whllo favorable
weather may be expected. Toward the close
fhey will havon few vacant Saturdays to
play ofT postponed games, should they have
any. The new constitution is at present in
the hnndsof the printer, and will be issued
in a few days. It is
A WOKTHY DOCUMENT,
and will call for no fooling on tho part of
any of the clubs or players. An important
change is in the matter of counting games
this year. A"wln will count two points,
while a draw will count one point. This will
do away with diawn games being ro-played.
The club having the highest number of
points at the close of tbo season shall bo
awarded the championship. A nleaslng
leature is that all the clubs will play on in
closed grounds this year. The two local
teams, tbe Pittsburgs and Bloomfields, will
playonKccreation P.irk, whllo the McDon
alds have rented the ground of tbe Mansfield
Baseball Club. Newcastle, McKeesport and
Homestead have all grounds of their own.
Only one more Saturday remains before
the opening of the season and on that day
all the clubs will engago in friendly games.
The reorganized Pittsburg team. Which is
composed of members of last year's Law
reneeville Thistle nnd East End teams will
play an exhibition gamo with the MoDon
nldsat Mansncld. Great interest is being
taken in tho contest, ns it will be the first
exhibition of the kind ever seen in that dis
trict. The champions claim to bo as good
as last year, but Captain C. V. Cbilds, or tbo
Pittsburgs. is getting up n strong team for
tbe occasion and Intends to make tbe con
test a close one. The League schedule is as
follows:

A VALUABLE PEIZE.
Ono
of the Dlggest Turf Events In the
IVorld Decided.
EY CABLE TO THE EISPATCn. J
Lokdojt, Sept. 2C The Lancashire Plato,
one of the now races with big stakes which
bid fair to put tbo old classic fixtures in the
shade, was rnn to-day. Tbe stace was .11,000,
with a sweepstnkes of 5 each for starters,
but tho latter did not ndd much to the value
of tho prize, as only nine horses faced the
storter. The race has attracted much at
tention ins the sporting world, and an
enormous amount of money was laid upon
tbe Duke of Westminster's 2-year-old, Oi me,
and Monsieur Blanc's 3-year-old mare,
Gonverneur. The latter did not got n place,
vnd Ormo was a bad second to Chevalier
Genlstrelle's SIgnorinn, a 4-year-old mare.
The winner started- at (I to 1, and tho stable
won a big sum Bnt the general public wonld
have little to do with "her, owing to a long
spell of ill luck which had followed a
brilliant o reerasn2-year-oId.
Great cxcltemont was caused among the
sporting frnternlty this morning by the an
nouncement that Ormo would not run if the
weather should be wet, and ono newspaper
was moved to suggest the invention of a
horse umbrella for the delicate animal's pro
tection. The incident has started an inter
esting controversy upon tho question wheth
er English trainers do not coddle race horses
too much. It seems to bo generally admitted
that stables in these days nre overheated
and overlighted, and that horses are given
far too little outdoor exercise.
Tho Cricket Game in Philadelphia.
PniLADELPniA, 8ept. 2(!. For six hours in a

tested on tho field of the Germantown

up of tho teams was unchanged. The result
of tho day's play wns the completion of
Philadelphia's first inningfor2l8, 13 less than
the Englishmen made in their first inning.
Tho visitors began their second inning, and
had scored 84 when stumps were drawn with
a loss pf two wickets. The attendance is
estimated at between 15,000 and 20.C00, by far
the largest number of people that evor saw
a cricket game in this country.

A CooMJeadedSIanafjerrreTcnteatho loss
of Many Lives.
EMMA GROSS' MUEDEREE ARRESTED
SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Butler, Pa., Sept. 26. The opera
House and a furniture factory were de
stroyed by fire between 10 and 11 o'clock
to-night. "When it became known that the
Opera Housa was on fire the greatest ex
citement prevailed on the streets. The
Minnie Seward Company was playing "The
"Waif," and a large audience was
present. Fathers and mothers ran to
and fro through the crowds that
blocked the adjacent streets inquiring
for their children whom they feared
were still in the doomed building.
The fire broke out in the property room
under the stage and was not discovered un
til it had gained considerable headway.
Manager Boot, without announcing what
was wrong, appeared on the-stage and re
quested the audience to leave the building
at once. The idea of there being a fire did not
seem to bayo been thought "of until tho
greater part of the audience had left the
untitling. There was considerable confusion
on tbe gallery stairs, but no one was hurt in
tbe hasty exit.
Manager Boot and others ran hurriedly
through tho building to see that every one
was out. The troupe made thelrexit without
uudno ceremony. They were obligod to
a uit the stage in their character costumes,
ne trunk and a piano was all they sne
ceedod in savlnif. The firemen fought the
fire nt a great disadvantage on account of
a scarcity of water, and a messenger had to
bo dispatched to the pump station of the
water company, a milo distant, to order the
pumps started. While this was bolng done
tho flames spread to Miller's Furniture lac
tory and destroyed thogreaterpnrt of it be
fore a fresh supply of water could be had.
The Opera House was owned by A. W. Root,
who lived in a part of the building. He es
timates his loss to be $10,000 to $12,000, with
notadollarofinsuronco. Miller's loss will ex
ceed $1,0C0. Several other buildings were
more or less damaged. The dwelling house
of Joseph Bnlph was damaged considerably
by fire and water.
ALBEBT CATLIN ABEESTED.
Charged TVith tho Marder of Emma Gross
at McDonald.
WASHiiroTON,PA.,Sept. 28.-c5ciaJ.J-Albert
Cntlin.the'supposedmurderer of Fmraa Gross
at McDonald, wns arrested this afternoon on
the Welsh farm, nbont flvo miles from this
city, on the Cnnonsburg road. The police of
this city obtnined information this morning
that Catlln was hiding near Canonsburg.
Officers Oar and Barbour traced nim to tho
Welsh house.
Tbe house was thoronzhly searched and
tbe officers found Catlin hiding in the
cellar, but on seeing the officers he quietly
surrendered himself. .
He was brought to Washington and lodged
in Jail. Catlin was seen in bis cell but be
refused to say anything in regard to the
murdor of tho Gross woman. He was very
nervous. Tho body of the murdered woman
wns brought to Washington early this
morning and the remains wero interred this
aftornoon.
There H great excitement in this city to
night. The Jail is surrounded by crowds of
peoplo discussing the crime. There is but
little sympathy manifested for the murderer
by tho colored people. Tbe murderer and
bis victim lived in tbls city and were well
known here, and in this city Catlin's repu
tation is none too good. He and the notori
ous Ben Cox, who is now serving a term in
the penitentiary for murder, were tbo beat
of friends and wero always together.

For all the weaknesses and ailments peculiar

Our Candidate.

The people clamor around
our candidate. It was hardly
necessary to place our Home
made $io Cheviot Suits in
nomination, because they were
already running like wildfire.
The quality of these suits is
unquestionable, so that all
parties can unite upon them.
They are so popular that
nomination is equal to elec
tion. It is easy enough to
,part with money, but it isn't
so easy to get' it back again.
When you let your dollars
go, let them go for some
thing'which you would just
as soon have as the money
itselfj ora little sooner. Elect
our store for your purchases;
you will get your full money's
worth, and if your purchase
is not satisfactory your full
purchase money is ready for
you as soon as you return the
goods uninjured. Equally
strong candidates are our own
make "Tan Bark" Suits in
Meltons, Cheviots, Home
spuns and Cassimeres at
$12, $15 fflll $18.
They are at the top in all
that goes to make a faultless,
fashionable suit, and at the
bottom in the matter of price,
and, like the good candidates,
they'll redeem every pledge
that is made in their behalf.
Should, however, anything
go wrong on them in one
year we repair them free of
charge.
Our work in this branch has
a national reputation; none

Who They Are.
The staff of tbo Electropathio Institute)
recognize the fact that they are not open to
the charge of "nameless," or to that of uslns
obscuro or doubtful people in any way, in
connection with thoir institute. In proof
of this we cnll attention to the fact that
Lewis G. Davis, 31. D., is at the head or ths
staff of physicians and surgeons of the Eleo
tropathfc Institute of 507Pennavenne, Pitts
burg. Dr. Davis graduated flrst at Jefferson
Medical College of Philadelphia in 1879.
After two years of private practice he took
the post-graduate course of Bellevue Hos
pital 31edical College or New Tork Cltyi
graduating In 1882. In addition to these dis
tinctions. Dr. Davis has special-course diplo
mas in Physical Diagnosis under Professor
Janeway; in Chemistry under Professor
Doremus, in Skin Diseases under Professor
Shoemaker, and in Surgical Anatomy under
Professor Keen. His staff of able associates
have no less honorable credentials of thir
training, experience, skill and knowledge
needed to practice medicine safely and suc
cessfully. WHAT THEY CAN DO.
Mr. Thomas F. Robinson, tbe well-known,
boat-bnllder of Lafayette street, Hazelwood,
Twenty-third ward, says of the Electro
pathio Institute, at 307 Penn avenue:
Thomas F. Robinson, Lafayette street. Hazel
wood. "After I began to recover from tho
grip I was attacked with facial neuralgia,
and suffered pain, continuous and almost;
crazing, ii my face and head. I was also
afflicted with lumbago. The constant strain
upon me finally resulted In complete nerv
ous prostration and insomnia or sleepless
ness, that nearly set me crazy. I was in
duced to apply to the physicians of tho
Electropatbic Institute, at No. 507 Penn
avenue, this city, and was under treat
ment less than a week when I-began to grow
better and I am now completely cured. I
cannot speak too highly of the phvsiclans
of the Pittsburg Electropathio Institute."
