BATTLE OF THE LEADERS.
Providence Wins Its Third Straight from
the Ponies.
Providence, Aug. 19. Providence won
the third straight victory from Spring
field today In a red hot ami exciting
game. The contest was full of sensa
tional situations. It was a free batting
game, and there were numerous bat
tery mlsplays on 'both sides. Both
. teams were batting the ball hard and
waiting at the bat for every chance to
gain a base on called balls. There was
hustling work in the field, and the base
running was daring. Three of the runs
gained y the Springfield were made
on combination steals. .McAuley being
worked Into throwing to second and
allowing men on third to score. The
core see-sawed in an exasperating way
and it was an even thing as to which
.side would win 4o the last moment,
when Lyons gripped the last ball
umiea, getting trie Dan in the air on a
:nara run,. There was uncertainty until
Lyons showed that he had the ball by
throwing It in. Attendance. 2,500,

It will be a well contested game.
Wllltom Hall, the well-known quoit

the following letter to the Tribune.
Prlceburg, Aug. 1, 1S5.
Snorting Editor of the Tribune:
Regarding the match at quoits which
was to 'be played at the Grove Houe
grounds1 last Saturday between w Illlam
Thorpe atid myself, the game did not
come ofr for tome reason better known
to Thorpe and his friends, I am at a
loss to know the reason, as he has
stated he would concede me a start for
any amount that I could raise. May
be he thought I could not raise a stake,
About four weeks ago when the match
was made we posted a f orfelit of ta each
Thorpe and his friends bluffed us and
wanted to put up s more, w e agreed,
but when we met on the following Bat
urday. Thorpe and his friends would
not put any more up. when I make a
-match I don't mean to bluff any one.
but I mean' to put up my money. So I
don't wish to hear amy more from
Thorpe, who I believe has backed out
without any lust reason, it lie had
been sick, or could not play, there would
have 'been some excuse, but he Is Just
as good at quoits now as ever he was,
I don't mean to bluff through tne press
but I mean business, and I want Thorpe
and his friends to understand It.
Yours truly,
William Hall,

men and passengers suoceeded In driving
away the hornets. A number of persons
were severely stung. The tra.ltr stopped at

TOO EXCITING FOR UIM.
A man who looked as though he had
spent the night and many others In
subtenranean waterways, the flow of
which he had not disturbed, walked
by 'Madison Square garden the other
day. He staggered along under the por
ticos on the Twenty-seventh street side.
As he reeled up to a big open door.
where the stuffed animals and alliga
tors which had been on view at the
Sportsman's exhibition were awaiting
transportation, he paused with a stair t.
Before him stood a grizzly bear, with
wide open Jaws, holding a basket In Its
paws. He turned away as though
greatly startled. On his left waa a
jaugar at the throat of a young calf.
He shuddered perceptibly at this and
backed Into a stuffed snake swallowing
a preserved rabbit, and as with fear
in his eyes he stumbled over a croco
dile, the expression of his face was a
study. With a wild yell he started
down the street, past several side doors
and alluring beer signs, and what he
thought nobody knew positively, but
there were many good guesses.
