A fiEAL MEEET TIME AT CHICAGO.
Boston Scores Two Tictories and Takes a
Good Foothold.
ILL THE LEADING BASEBALL SEWS
f
l iv t t
Trie annals of Allegheny county cannot
furnish a record of a greater day for baseball
In Pittsburg than.
7Ji mat oi yesteruay.
it was a np-tearin jj
day f o r local
cranks. Ttto Tic
tories in one after
noon against Ton
der Alio is enough
to send the .enthu
siasts of this coun
ty -wild. That -was
just -what took
place, and 8,500
people -witnessed
the glorious double
event. The stands
and grounds were
packed and there
-was a surplus
crowd on the field.
And such a holiday
crowd was never
seen. They were
tickled to death at
the least pood point of the home players,and
sent up thousands of groans when things
didn't go their way. But there was compar
atively little groaning-, because the local
Bluggers -were out for tame and glory, and
they would not have things go against them.
Ton Dor Ahe Was Weary.
Ton der Abe could be seen a little during
the first game, but as soon as the second one
w as fairly started the "Poss" disappeared in
dUgust, It is a fact that during the after
noon hundreds of cranks saw visions of the
championship pennant flying in Exposition
Paik. But aspirations mustn't be as extrava
gant as that, because there are much tougher
people to come here than the Browns. But,
In all fairness, the homo team did extremely
well in both games and played as well as any
other team could reasonably be expected to
play.
The first game was a good one, and at
stages matters were so close that a good hit
by the visitors might have materially af
Jected the result. It was a real argument
from start to finish and kept the cranks
moving on their seats restive and some
times ill at ease. The slusrgers could not
get fairly on to the ball, as Kid Gleason was
in very effective form. He pitched well and
was admirably supported. But the first
inning spoiled his chances.
And Baldwin pitched a good game, al
though he was very shaky now and again.
But he always braced up when matters
looked dismal, and if he hadn't he would
have been beaten. In short, he displayed
pluck just when it was needed. His support
tvasof the best.
Made a Good Start.
As usual the home team went to bat first,
and they began as If they were going to treat
Gleason as they hadtieated Breitenstein.
Miller opened hostilities with a rasping
single to le:t, but Bierbauer popped up a
little fly to Gleason. It was an attempt to
sacrifice. Swartwood. the sturdvold war
horse, waited and got his base on balls, and
reliable Charley Farrell banged out a single
to the left field, but no run came in. The
bases were full, and Beckley got his base on
balls, forcing in a run. Then little Shugart
thumped out a nice single to left, and an
other run -nas tallied. Smith made a men
sacrifice hit and the third run was counted,
and then Slack went out at first.
It w as -n ell that the tin ee runs were made
at this stage as the subsequent history of
the game showed.
In the third inning, after Bucklev was ont.
Gleason rapped out a single to light and
Stncker followed with a long fly to Smith.
It was verv difficult to catch and Elmer let
it drop. This scored Gleason and Cub went
to second. Then Robert Caruthers made
e ervbodv uneasy by knocking out a single.
It was a little one. Carroll got his base on
bails and the bases weic tilled again. AVer
den's single scored St-ieker. But Werden
was thrown out, he thinking that Smith had
caught the ball he had knocked out and did
not go to first. Brodie was tetired at first.
Tery Closit -Work.
The score was now 3 to 2 in favor of the
home lot, and each team was playing well.
In the sixth the home fellows scored an
other on Smith's base on balls. Earl's sacri
fice and Baldwin's double.
Then came the very exciting ninth inning.
Gleason led off in the second half with a
double and scored on a sacrifice each by
Strieker and Caruthers. Old Cliff Carroll
loomed up with a hit, and then evervbodv
thought that Werden wonld make another
and tie the score. But he only knocKed out
aflv, which S-nartz caught, and the game
was ended.
And what a fright the local cranks got in
the beginning of the second game. Ehret
started in to pitch and alter his colleagues
had failed to-scoie in their halt he opened
up by hitting Strieker with the balL Thn
Caruthers got his base on balls and then
Carroll made a hitnllin-r the bases. Wenirii

CAPIAIH HANLOH'S OPINION.
He Talks to a Louisville Reporter About
.'. Our Sluggers.
Captain Hanlon, of the Pittsburg team, oc
cupied a seat la the directors' box at Eclipse
Park yesterday afternoon, where he was
seen by a Courier-Journal reporter. He was
asked what team would win the pennautand
said that was hard guessing. Most people
picked the Bostons, but lie saw no reason
why it had a better claim on the flag than
several other teams. Pittsburg would cause
trouble before the season was over. Louis
ville had a fine team. It was 30 per cent
stronger than any nine that bad ever repre
sented the city.
Hanlon -said ne did not expeot to get back
on the diamond for three weeks, though his
injuted leg n as improving nicely. The doc
tor said he would be playing in two weeks,
but he hardly thought he would be himself
by that time. Heaid he would remain in
j.uuisviwo Tintii ne was well. ianion is a
gentlemanly -player, and hit unfortunate
injury in the opening game at Cincinnati
was regretted by his many admirers in every
baseball city in the country. Courier-Journal.
hut the players know that he has the best-Interests
of the team at heart, and they submit to his in
structlons kindly. Murphy is a good captain. He
watches very closely every play, and his men are
not slow to take advantage or any opening made
by their opponents.
Two for Boston.
Eostox, April S3 There was a large at
tendance at the hall grounds here to-day to

ton, his consent to the St Louis and Cincin
nati clubs playing in Columbus on their way

' TEE ENGLISH DERBY.
-
Betting Indicates That Orme Is Mot Sure to
, Win the Big Prize.
IBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
LoffDos, April 23. CbpyrfAf. The betting
in England up to yesterday seemed to Indi
cate that the great 3-year-old prizes of the
year were at the mercy of the Duke of West
minster, whose aolt, Orme, is such a hot
favorite for the 2,000 guineas that odds of 2
to 1 were laid on him, Nino to 1 was offered
against any of the remaining horses for the
Derby. Even money was being taken about
Orme and no other horse was mentioned,
Orme had wintered well and the most glow
ing accounts were given of him from the
stable. To-day, however, a great change
was witnessed. i
a rumor was circulated that the horse had
broken down In training. It was suggested
that this report was merely circulated for
the benefit of the betting market, but the
latest information shows that the horse had
a severe cold and diseased throat. He did
not leave the stable to-day and it seems as
though the horse 'bad completely broken
down. The bookmakers are offering 10 to 1
against him to-night for the 2,000 guineas
and no takers.

run, and a wild throw by Earles let in an
other run. BiodiemadeasAcrinco hit and
the tnird run was counted. This was terri
ble. But Werden was nabbed at third and
Pinckner sent a fl to Bierbauer. It was
now the general opinion that the home
team's name was "Dennis." But the Browns
didn't know, vou know. Mr. Ehret got set
tled down after he had nearlv killed a few
of Vondv'a men and they couldn't touch
him. lie bad them scaled near to death.
He showed remarkable speed and is itally a
good pitcher and a hard nlttcr.
A Dellghtfnl Change.
But in the second inning things changed
and poor Mr. Dwyer got an aw ful drubbing.
The sluggers jut let themselves loose and
thumped him without mercy. Bierbauer,
Swartwood, Farrell, Shugart, Smith and
Lhieteach madca smgleand the-o, wltha
wild pitch and a base on balls, netted four
runs During the inning Swartwood, In
leaving third base, slipped and fell, sprain
ing his shoulder. He retired and Corkhtll
took his place.
In the next Inning the thumpers started
ont again on Dwyer again. Alter Beckley
was out Shugait and Smith each made a
single and Earle a double. Ehret was letired
on a fly, and Miller made a single and all
this scored other three runs. In thefourth
inning after two more lilts had been made,
two sacrifices and an error Dwyer was sent
to the bench and Easton went In to pitch.
Two hits were made off his delivers' straight
away and, altogether, three more runs were
made.
From that on to the finish Easton did tol
erably well. Altogether t-even hits verb
mu.de oft him and It off Dwyer. The game
was pleasing to admirers of the home team
but it was too one-sided.
Ilarry Stevens was again on deck doing a
land office business in score caids. The

A large crowd attended the West End
Gymnastio Club meeting and furnished tbe
enthusiasm to keep- the amateurs working
with a vim. It was an- excellent entertain
ment throughout and reflects credit on all
who participated.. The East and West End
Gyms worked together nicely, though the
East Enders had much tbe better of it from
the faot that that club has long had a com
petent Instructor to keep them in training.
However, the West End men have no reason
to feel chagrined at the result, as in every
event they went down with flying colors.
The result will be that enough ' enthusiasm
will be generated to secure an instructor for
the West End Club.
The first event was on the horizontal bars,
by a class of the East End boys. Tbe class
was Fry, Close, DuBarry, Barr, Musgrave,
Hastings," Kimmel, Morgan, Layng, and Prof.
Kirchner. Kimmel and Layngin the giant
swing had the honors, with the others fol
lowing close.
Clnb Swinging and Wrestling.
The club swinglikg of H. C. Frye, of the E.
E, G. C, was of a character to warrant an
encore, to whloh he responded with extra
heavy clubs, . 9
In the wrestling bout between SI. Joyee
andN. Filllngerno time was lost. The lat
ter got both falls, neither requiring more
than one minute. Both urn West End men.
The most amusu& event of the evening,
and the one callinsr for the most enthusiasm.
was tbe. tug of war between the married and
single men of trie club. 'Sqult e Madden cap
tured the single men, and before the event
began made the boast that "as these married
men brought their wives with them, we'll
pull tbe bloomeis off of tbem."
Jiuttneyaian-t. it was decidedly the oppo
site. In the flrst pull the married men won
by two inches', and lu the sec
ond the boastful 'Squire was ap
parently trying to hug the married
men's anchor. At least, he was over there,
the single men having lost by at least IS
feet.
Prof. Klrchner'a Pole Vault.
Prof. Kirchner demonstrated the fact that
he oan practice what he preachel, in the
pole vault, at least. He vaulted the.highest
stands tbe West Enders bad, and then two
men stood on chairs and held up the sticks,
giving the Professor a vault of over nine
leec.
Dubarry won the high kick in a fine effort,
making 8 feet 6 inches. J. Frlel, or the West
End Gyms, dla very well, and would have
done better had he been more careful.
M. W. O'Toole, W. E. G., in club swinging,
showed that he has bad good training in that
line.
The narallel bar elass of the E. G. C,
DuBairy, Fry, Close, Barr, Musgrave,
Hastings, Lavng, Kimmel, Morgan and
Professor Kirchner, gavo an ex
hibition between pulls In the tug of war be
tween the East and West Enders. The East
End men won the tug of. war in two straight
pulls, having tbe advantage over their ad
versaries of better training.
A. Good Wrestling Bout.
From an artistic standpoint the event of
the evening was the wrestling match be
tween F. L. Jamieson, of Allegheny, and an
unknown. The latter is a pupil or Jamieson
and succeeded in demonstrating that he is
well tialned by giving his master an exceed
ingly hard tussle.
rue unknown won the llrat rail after hard
work. Ho Is, perhaps, quite as stiong, out
does not have the science of Jamieson. The
The second and third falls were -non by
Jamieson, but he certainly had to fight for
all he got. He had several half nelsons on
the unknown, but none seemed to have any
effect until the last fall, when that was tho
hold that floored his man.
There were about 300 . people at the exhi
bition, and showed their appreciation of the
efforts of the athletes by generous applause.
The West End men feel somevrnat encour
aged at the lesult of the meeting, and will
doubtless enter the lsts of events this
season with good dhances or winning. There
is good material In the club, and should not
be allowed to waste for want of training.

The Veteran's Challenge.
Captain A. H. Bogardus, the veteran ex
champion wing shot of the Country, is ready
to sboot any man for a purse at the style of
shooting that governed his last match with
Bextroar, 15 jards lise, ten yards circle
around the trap, one barrel, any bird falling
within the ten yards circle to count against
the shooter. This, he sajs, approximates
field shooting, and is a style that will test
the skill of any of the experts of the day.
Captain Bogardus calls attention to .i claim
in this -week's Field to tbe effect that Bolla
Hatkcs holds the record for fast work at clay
targets, having broken 500 In 41,tnlnutes.
This, he says. Is an error, as he Broke the
same number at Cincinnati, O., In 1833, In St
minutes and 7 seconds, it being a matter of
record.

7ie wrong waif,
with Catarrh, is
to stop it without
turing it Tho
poisonous, irrita
ting snuffs, strong
caustic solutions,
" creams," bairns
and the like may,
perhaps, palliate
lor a tirne. But
they njay drive
the disease) to the
lungs.
Tha wrong way is full of danger.
Tho right way is a proved one. It's with
Dr. Sage's Catarrh Kemedy. It cures, per
fectly and permanently, by its mild, sooth
ing, deansins and healing properties, the
worst cases of Chronic Catarrh. It has
proved itself right, thousands of times, when
every uumj eiso uos iueu.
And this makes its proprietors willing to
provo that it's tha right thing for you, no
matter how bad your case or of how long
standing.

They mean it.
They're certain of their medicine..
