STECXAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
LOTISVILLr,
April 19.
Pittsburg died
hard. It played
the game until
the last man
v as out. Pitch
er Jones once
played with the
Pittsburg club.
He bas .been
anxious to go
into the box
since the open
in? of the
championship season, but Captain Pfeffer
would not take the chance. To-day, how
ever, it was decided to give him an oppor
tunity and the Smoky City team know the
result Jones is a left-hander and he had
the visitors at his mercy from the first inn
ing. Two of the four hits were scratches.
Captain Pfeffer played a superb game at
second and his double play in the second
practically saved the game for Louisville.
A hard rain fell this morning, aud then the
mercury took a drop until it almost reached
the freezing point It began raining in the
filth inning, but the game proceeded.
Brown's Bis Hit fr "I'no Bases.
Brown opened the contest by driving the
ball to leit lor two bases. Pfeffer landed a
single in the same territory and Brown
went to third. "While Pleffer was stealing
second Brown left for home, but was caught
Seery was sent to his base on four bad balls
and Weaver sent each a base nearer home
on a sacrifice from second to first Jen
nings ended this inning on a grounder to
short After Miller retired in Pittsburg's
half, Bierhauer hit to short and Jennings
threw wild to first Bierbaner got second
and reached third on Corkhill's sacrifice.
Parrell. however, went out from home to
first "With one out in the subsequent inn
ing, Kuehnc hit to center for two bases and
went to third on Baldwin's fumble of Jones
balL Jones begun Pittsburg's half by hit
ting Beckley. Then he threw Shugart's
grounder wiid to first and Beckley contin
ued around to third. It looked rather un
favorable for Louisville at this point
Shusart attempted to steal second and was
retired. Smith struck out and Mack flied
to Tavlor. Louisville scored its first run in
the third. Pleffer sent a long fly to right,
which Corkhill misjudged and it netted him
two bases.
And Tbey Scored a Ban.
Seery sacrificed him to third. "Weaver
was given his base on balls and Jennings
sent a hot one down the third base line
which Parrell could not reach and Pfeffer
scored. The next two men were retired.
In Pittsburg's half, after two men had been
disposed of, Bierbauer made the first hit of
the game and was lorcea to second on iorx
hill's base on balls. Parrell hit a fly just
back of second and Bierbauer scored from
second. There were two men on bases when
Beckley struck out Captain Pfeffer opened
the fifth with a double to center, but the
three next batsmen were retired. There
was one out in the sixth when Beckley
made a scratch double to right and toot:
third on Jennings' fumble of Shugart's
grounder. Smith hit to Pleffer, and the
latter touched Shugart and threw to first in
time to retire Smith. Two men had been
retired in the last inning when Pfeffer hit
over second for a single. Seery then drove
the sphere down the right field foul line for
two bases and Pfeffer brought in what
proved to be the winning run. Seery
was run down between second and third.
Pittsburg retired in order in its half. The

tioned asgregation mowed down the hump4
and hillocks, rising here and there on the
undulating siirfaco of the field and made it
as smooth and level as a billiard table.
There will be a grand stand erected at
once, but owing to the short term or the
lease the grounds will not be inclosed. The

CSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THEISFATCH.J
MononoahelaCitt, April 19. A mys
terious shooting affray occurred late last
night at Lock Ho. 4, which will result in
the death of one of the participants. James
Evans owns and operates a steam feather
renovator boat, and among the employes is
one P. TV. Painter, who does all sorts of
jobs on the boat Last night the boat was
lying at Lock No. 4, when the people on
shore were startled by three shots in rapid
succession. Immediately after a man was
heard to scream, and investigation showed
that Painter had been fatally shot
Both men had evidently been drinking,
and as no arrests have yet been made, but
little can be learned of the cause of the
shooting. It is known, however, that
Evans was jealous of his employe, and a
collision of some sort occurred. Evans
made an assault on Painter, who started to
run. Evans drew a revolver and fired three
shots, all of which took effect One struck
Painter in the neck and two in the back,
and he fell instantly.
Painter is reported dying to-night, and a
warrant will likely be issued at once for the
arrest of Evans.
The cause of the tragedy is said to be the
fact that Painter had been paying attention
to Evans' wife, which aroused the jealousy
of the latter and cansed him to drink
heavily. It was while under the influence
of liquor and blinded by jealousy that he
made the murderous assault on Painter.

This enterprise is only a visible demonstration of
what the American people can do. with pluck and
perseverance. It has come up through discourage
ment In its earlier history. In made heavy drafts
on the confidence and courage and coin or its
founders. I can remember when it was thought
you could not make encaustic tiling In this country
which would be marketable and merchantable, ft
was said that neither the clay nor the climate
was suitable, that we must continue to go abroad
to supply our wants. These apostles of discourage
ment have been forced to change their minds, and
the n hole world knows that we can manufacture
this article In qnantlty and strength, equal in art
aud beauty to that from any part of the globe,
while through tne efforts or the domestic manufae
turerers theprice has been reduced to the domestic
consumer, and what a few years ago was an ex
ceptional luxury has been placed within reach of
the multitude.
The McKinley Club, composed of young
men who took an active part in the cam
paign last fall, called on the Governor and
E resented him with a paper congratulating
