IT WAS AX EASY ONE.
The. Ilr.ra Team Defeat Hie Baltimore In
n Very Onesitlt d G imp.
For once our sludgers let themselves
loose on ".Ladies' day," and w on a game
despite the pres
ence ot the brass
band on the
grounds. When
everything is con
sidered, a Jonah
strong enough
couldn't very
well have been
found to liooiloo
them out of it, be
cause they won
one of the easiest
victories they have
had since the his
toric appearauce of
the Browns and
Jr. Brietenstein
at the commencement of the first half of the
season here. The Baltimoreswert extremely
easy victims yesterday, and the contest was
much too onesided to be interesting. At
no stage was there any exciting features,
and it seemed a foregone conclusion in the
opinion o! everybody present that the local
men couldn't lose.
T!i- n.-i'lier W.- Clilltr.
It was "Ladies day," and the weather
was very umai orable. This fact kept the
total attendance down to about 2,r00 peo
ple, and the atmosphere was a little too
chilly to enjor a onesided game. But vic
tor is alvrcvs welcome under any circum
staice , anl if onr sluggers keep up their
v inning gait they will soon be making mat
ters very warm lor the Cleveland lot.
The Ba'timores must have fallen off con
siderably in their playing since the opening
of the second half oi the season. Doubt
less they can play a much better game than
they did jesterdav afterno n, and it is cer
tain that thei- will do-so to-day. But their
efiort ot vestcrd.iv was a very miserable one.
Kliug, the new p'itcher signed by the visit
ors, pitched seven of the eight and a hall
innings and he did not by anv means pitch
winning ball. He was hit hard and
frequently. True the young man received
poor support all round, iorson-e ot the most
glaring errors were made by his colleagues.
Giiusou, his catcher, was wildly at sea in
throwing to second to head off the local
men who "set out to steal second. As a re
sult, the home plajers stole bases at will.
P nv-d in llrllli nt Tonn.
The home team played a great game all
round. Terry kept up his fine torm and
pitched in winning style. Only tour hits were
made off his delivery, and three of hem
were made in one inning. Xot n fielding
error u as made by the home side until the
ninth inniiin, when Ft.rrell made a wild
throw to first. In this inning Terry
look matter-1 very easj, and as a result
the visitors got three men on bases,
lint there were two men out. With the
bases full Yickery, who had relieved Kling
in the second half of the eighth inning,
Etruck out. Siiugart made a brilliant one
handed catch of a liner lrom JIcGraw's bat
in the second itininz and was loudly cheered.
In the second half ot the first inning Mil
ler started off with a tingle to left and stole
tecond aided by a passed ball, lie also
stole third and scored on a balk by Kling,
the balk being a very stupid one.
In the second inning Farrell got to first
on a tumble by O'ltourke and reached
second on a wild pitch. A -acriSc-e each by
2Itck and BierDaner scored Farrell.
Touched Try Vp h L ttlr.
"When the third inning came it looked as
if the Orioles were going to thump tne life
out ot Terry. Alter Ward had been put
out Guason got away with a lucky two-bagger
to lclt and then Mr. Kling from the
West welted the ball to the right center
for three bags. Slnndle came next and
Langed the ball aay for two bags, scoring
tin- second earned run. This was terrible
and Terrv looked round and braced himself
and not another run was made by the Bird
lets during the balance of the game.
With the score tied Jliller began the
thiid inning by whacking the ball to the
lett ience fora three-bagger. He scored on
Donovan's sintrle.
In the fourth inning, after two men went
out, Bierbauer scut a hot one down left
field which Sto vey might have stopped, bnt
the ball got past him and Bierbauer was
credited with a home run. Stovey did not
get fairly at the ball. Terry followed on
with a single and scored on Miller's two
bagger to right field.
llonovnn to ihrj Tmnt -A;ri!n,
Donovan started off for the home players
in the fifth and reached first by being hit by
a pitched balL Smith fouled out and
Donovan stole second and scored on
Shugart's single. Shugart stole second and
scored on Beckley's single to right Beck
le got to Eecond on McGraw'a tumble and
stole third, scoring on a wild throw by
Gunson.
Donovan again started the run getting in
the seventh. He made a single and stole
second and got to third on a wild pitch.
"Ward fumbled Smith's grounder and the
latter was safe at first, Donovan scoring.
Shugart made a single alter Smith had been
nabbed trying to steal second. Shugart
fctole the base and Beckler reached second
on Shindlc's muff of his, Beckley's, little
fly, Shugart going to third. Mack's single
scored the two runs. The score:

here grows larger. Testerday it was bigger
than ever, and as the weather was pleasant,
both the participants in the play and the on

ment. As was expected, Aloorhead won the
' final match in the singles with Coster. The
latter a'l through tho tournament has been
playing better tennis than ever before, and
for tho first two seti to-day it seemed
as if he wus going lo give Jloor
head a close fight for the match. But
Moorhead played a rattling game and Coster
weakened in tho last two sets, taking but
one of the IS games. When Moorhead is at
his best he is a hard man to vanquish, and
he played bettor, with more vim unu spirir,
to-duy than he has at any time during the
tournnment. The whole match was the
most interesting of the week.
In the doubles the match between Pier
