KESULTS OF THE OTHER LEAGUE GAMES.
& cf !atcrest to Lovers of the National Came From
All lrt? of the Coantrv.
The laT rhamninnship game of the base
lalleaon oi'l.VJl in Pittsburg was played
ye-terdav. It resulted in
1
ndefeat for the home team, J
uut under the circum
stances the defeat nai in
no vtr.v ji discreditable one
to the local club. The
surroundings were iavor-
m1,1 fov fin, xtttirl n
vt vrj - -;
C n ! v?1 About WO people were in
Vi- ?V ''e stands to ee the last
-s A of the contest, and the
weather was charming.
The contending teams
were the real tnil-en'Jers,
the local team having the
best of the position. The
contest u as one that turned
nl to be almost entirely dependent on the
pitcher.-, and a;- a result the twirler for the
visitors got away with the host of the argu
ment. a i,iTTLi: scnriusc
Manager MeGnnnigle caused somewhat of
a surprise when he resolved to put Maul in
Jo pi tell. But the nianac?r had good reasons
for his rcsol e Maul has been several Mia
sms with the local club and it has never
been thoroughly tested whether or not he
was worth retaining for another season. He
has steadily been kept here because of the
high opinion that ex-Manager Hanlon has
of his pitching abilities Mr. llai.lon hft
time and time again argued that Maul hits
more.ieceptm halls m a pitching sense
than any itner pitcher Yesterday in the
opinion of Manager MeGnnnigle was an
opportune time to give Maul a -.how in the
box.
Maul was put in and he did remarkably
well It wa not his itching that caused
defeat as much as it wa- the inability of the
borne team to hit the bail. Maul pitched
an excellent game, and he pitched so "stead
ily that alter all there seems to be consider
able hope lor him as a pitcher. He was cool
and he was steadv, making very few mis
takes, and when it is said that he did not
fend a man to Ikim." on balls the fact of his
steadiness will be appreciated.

The visiting team played a good game,
and foi once Khines pitched one of his "old
time games" heie. He was iu first-class
fettle, and there was no gettirg over the
fact that he was doing his best to win his
last game in Pittsburg this year. Not long
ago the local slugger- knocked him out of
the bo, and he was on deck yesterday to
s-how them that they were no't able to re
peat their performance, Khines convinced
iiicm of hi- powers beyond the shadow of a
doubt, and the evcrgieen Arlie Latham
Icliew it was the windup in Pittsburg
yesterday. Latham, with all his faults,
was a rare treat je-tenlav. He was at his
best. He not only tried to scare the wits
out of Maui by telling loudlv of hi. Lath
am's, abilitiesas a hitter, but he announced
every Cincinnati player as a terror who
came to the bat. "We don't belong to the
tail ond, ladies and gentlemen," said
Latham at one stage of the game when the
Beds did a good Tea4- His reirarks were
addres-et to the audienre, of course, and
Ihey had a refre-hing ellect Undoubtedly,
Lut'ham i- an attraction. He willprobably
always have too much of the boy in hint to
liave a controlling influence over a team,
but he will always be a feature ou any team
with which he is connected.
ST.VKTf.l) OUT VEKY WF.IiT.
Maul and Khines started out so well that
the lourth inning was reached before a run
was made. The visitors made it and it was
made after two men were, out- In the last
lialf of the inning named Latham led offand
knocked up a foul flv that was cleverly
caught by Mack. Halligan came next and
struck out Then "Hug" Holliday made a
single to left and Long John Iteilly fol
lowed with a triple to right field. Mul
lane, who hade gone to left rield iu nlace of
Beilly, who had taken Keenan's place at
first, was easily put out at first base.
In the fifth inning the home plavers
scored one. Lally went to first on ballsy
anil gox 10 secoim on .ueiny s sacrmce.
Maul struck out and Hanlon made a single,
scoring Lally.
In the seventh inning Long John from
Cincinnati made a single to left and got to
second on a fumble by Beckley of Mullanc's
grounder. An error by Harlon ultimately
j-cored Keilly and that "ended the run get
ting on both sides.
In the second inning Maul hit Keenan
terrifical'y on the sideof the head with a
pitched hall and Keenan. .ts above stated,
Jiad to retire. The ncore follows:

Between Smith and. Farrell.
MOEEY DP FOR THE PITTSBURGEB.
The Eesults of the Leading Turf Events on
the Eastern and Western Tracks.
GENERAL' SPORTING NEWS -OP THE DAI
"Without doubt it will he interesting to
the sporting public ot Pittsburg, and also
of the entire country, to know that there
is a strong probability of a foot race in this
city between "Honesty George Smith and
Steve Farrell. Yesterday afternoon a local
sporting man put up with the sporting
editor of this paper a forfeit of ?50 to
match George Smith to run Steve
Farrell a foot' race of ,100 yards for 230 a
side and the entire gate receipts. The
conditions of Smith's backer are that the
race be run in Pittsburg four weeks after
the articles are signed and that Farrell be
allowed ?25 expenses. Smith's reprosenta
tive will be at this office at any time to sign
articles and make other arrangements for
the race.
Tlie above definite declaration means that
a race will take place between the two fa
mous pedestrians named. For some time
past parties have been talking extensively
about Farrell's superiority to Smith in a
race of 250 or 300 yards, aud now
that Smith has found a party will
ing to back him the 'race is sure to go
on. It is safe to say that there are not two
better 300-vard ruuner-i in America than
Farrell and Smith. The truth is men who
are in a position to know, or who a least
should be expected to know, claim that
Farrel can run the distance better than Ul
seconds. The record of Hutcheus is 30 sec
onds, and that stamps Farrell as a "ilyer."
But Smith has been long known as some
thing more than a 120 or 130-yard runner by
those who .hav.e been directiy interested in
him. He has not figured publicly on the
track for some time, but he is confident that
four weeks will be sufficient to get himself
into trim. At any rate he is quite willing
to tackle Farrell in a race of 300 yards, and
he has stanch people behind him.

this morning was placed in the Kanawha
county jail. She was arrested in Lincoln
county yesterday morning at a point far
distant from an j-railroad. "She is charged
with being a moonshiner.
More than a year ago it was discovered

line of the Norfolk' and AVestcrn Bailroad,
and the United States authorities attempted
to capture her but every effort was frus
trated. In addition to being a young ath

bright and sharp, she was a fine shot with
cither rifle or revolver, and was the owner
of a beautiful sorrel horse that many a time
saved her life. AVhenever the marshals
were on her taack her fleet-footed steed
bore her swiftly away, and at night she was
secreted by her friends.
Hundreds of gallons of death-dealing
liquor has she sold in the year during which
the marshals have hunted her. Becently
she found that the crowds along the new
road were becoming smaller and she gave
up tlie business and went to Lincoln county
thinking to be, safe there, but the marshals
still pursued her. and after a tiresome and
dangerous chase captured her. The officers
got the drop on her and she surrendered. It
is said that she has made quite a snug sum
of money by her illicit trade, and will make
a fight in the courts for her freedom.

the maker behind us, takes the risk of
the tenth.'
