Washington, April 22. Today's game
was very loosely played on both sides,
Brooklyn winning through better hitting
and McJames' liberality with bases cn
balls. Captain Joyce was hit In the face
with a pitched ball in the second inning
and was compelled to retire. A great ileal
of "kicking" was indulged in by both sides
over Kwefe's umpiring, and the wrangling
was of such frequent occurrence that
only six innings were played. Score:

8N0W AT BROCKTON.
It Prevented the Sornnton Game In That
City Yesterday.
Brockton,' Mass., April 22. Snow and
severe cold weather prevented today's
Scranton-Brockton game. The clubs
will play tomorrow here. On Friday
and Saturday McDermott will pit. his
men against the Fall Rivers.
All the Scranton players are well and
only a few are sore or lame. The pitch
ers are in fine shape.
LOCAL BASE BALL
Pitcher Cronln and Shortstop Sweeney
are to be released. Cronln's great fault
is his wildness. and Sweeney has neither
the hitting nor fielding qualities for Kast
eru league company.
Manager McDermott is not yet able lo
decide positively concerning Pitchers
Herrand Stcmmell, but it Is Indicated that
they will begin the regular season with
the team. Neither Is a novice. Herr wtis
with the Norfolks, of the Virginia league,
last year and Stcninicll was with Cham
liersliuig, of the Cumberland Valley
league, ,
Concerning the shortstop vacancy Mc
Dermott writes that he will have u good
ntati for the position by Saturday, He Is
now negotiating with three National leag
uers, whose names cannot be announced
nl this time. Itellly, the crack short field
er of the Fall Rivers, could have been ob
tained, but the Fall Klver owners wanted
1500 for his release, McDermott offered
a much smaller sum und the deal fell
through.
Thre-I but llttli
concerning the
physical condition of the men. All are In
tine fettle, excepting Ward and Bradley,
who are suffering from soreness. Ward's
case is trivial, but Bradley has a very
bad arm which cannot lie expected to be
in good shape until next we.-k.
Maguire; the little third baseman who
created such favorable comment last
year with the Amsterdams, of the New
Vork State lea sue, seems to be one of
the most promising players on the team.
He has in the practice Karnes shown quick
ness and energy In field work and is hit
ting well. His throwing Is strong and ac
curate and he plays intelligently.
BASE BALL NOTES. ,
Syracuse has farmed Blakely to Rich
mond and Brlstow to Newark.
Toronto lost Its first practice game
Monday to Pittsburg. The score was 4-1.
Tomorrow will be Harry Wright Day
In the Knstern league and all the clubs
that will be at home have arranged games
for the benefit of the memorial to the vet
eran. Says a Syracuse exchange: "The team
Is weak behind the bat. Rafter has been
sent home to Lansingbiirg to recuperate
with orders to report at Star park In May.
If he does not get into condition another
catcher will be secured, as Hess cannot
lie expected to catch all the games. First
Baseman Carey Is at his home in this
city, ami will remain here until the open
ing of the championship season. He is In
pi.or health, and .Manager Keilly, to put
him In good trim when May comes, sent
him to Syracuse to rest, rather than risk
having him laid off after the season
opens."
Springfield Vnlon: "Tom Tower, who
was sold to Scranton by Syracuse for 2i"J
docs not want to go to the coul regions evi
dently, as he has not yet signed a Bcra.i
ton ion tract, and Is endeavoring to get his
reloase from Syracuse. It looks as though
Syracuse would either have to pay his sal
ary or release him if he Is under contract
to that club and refuses to be transferred
to Scranton." Springfield's secretary is
nil right, but he should have made the
foregoing item complete by saying that
Burns has encouruited Power to hold out
against signing with Scranton. Burns
wants Power badly,

each man winning one, they have decided
to toss, winner having choice of event

decidedly interesting.
SPORT OF ALL KINDS.

Tommy Ryan dies hard. Now he Is

Don't snicker when you see n smkll boy
with a fifteen foot pole, weighing fifteen
or more pounds. Small acorns grow into
big oaks and often one small boy can
catch more fish than ten expert fly fisher

Swiss Mountain Kennels, Oermantown,
continues his victorious career. He was
first In his class at New York and In the
recent Industrial hall show and has cap

According to Jim Corbett a mun can
be knocked out by a blow on the cheek
bone or In the eye. According to Cor
bett's theory, a series of hits on that
prominent bone of the face brings about
a gradual weakness, till the opponent
loses his nerve, and is either knocked out
or wants to quit, unless he Is dead game.
He feels, so to say, a sort of paralysis of
the face, which spreads to the hcaii.
This Idea Is a new one. It Is not new,
however, that as a dlsorganlzer of knlckles
The cheek-bone protuberances play dose

Cornell's track team Is doing ehe'rgetlc
work In preparation for the meet with
Pennsylvania. George Connors,- of the
Chicago Athletic Association, Is training
the men, and rapidly bringing them into
condition. The management has decided
to send a relay team to Philadelphia to
run against Columbia, Lehigh and Lafay
ette. Three men will also be sent to com
pete with the Harvard cycle meet. Every
thing points to a busy term team for the
track athletes. C. IT. Powell. '9!f, has re
ceived the gold medal by the class of 88
to the man winnlg the largest number of
points In the Indoor contests. Mr, Powell
won eight and one-half points, besides
breaking the indoor record for the run

SLIPS OF THE TONGUE.
Public Speakers Who Mixed l p Their
Words.
A youth who had In a performance of
"Richard III." to recite the words: "My
Lord, the Duke of Buckingham Is tak
en," came in shaking with stage fright,
and brought down the house In shout
ing out: .. '
"My Lord, the Buck of Puckliigham
Is taken!"
An English clergyman who was given
occasionally to such transposition, used
one day In a sermon as an illustration
the scene at Lucknow, when Jesse
Brown cnlis out: "Dlnra ye hoar the
pibroch and the slogan?" Hut ho pro
nounced It:
"Dlnna ye hear the ts'lobroch and, the
plgan?"
He did not know that he had made the
blunder until a friend told him of it
after the service; and then he wus so
much humiliated that at the clone of
the evening sermon ho took occasion to
suy to the ciingrcgutlim: "I mn told
that this morning I Fiild 'slulnwh find
plgan. ' 1 men til to have said the 'bII
broch and the pognn.'. Heceivd the
blessing." '
Another minister cnttld never suy,
"Sweet for bitter and hitler for sweet."
and as the service railed for the utter
ance of these words on occasion, his
congregation had to steel thutnselvis to
hear without a burst of laughter the
phrase "8 witter for beet and beet for
witter."

"But I don't see," I heard one man say,
while he knowingly twisted his glass un
der his eyebrow, "what I cawn't get at is
this: I thoiiKht there had been a big war
between North and South America, and
here see the North sticking up for one of
the Southern slates. The Yankees are a
very odd people, I must say."
No one seemed to be able to enlighten

took up the ruiuiiiiK.
"Poor devils, they've got no generals,
llrav. nt ami Lee are too old. 1 expect."
One peculiarly intelligent, mlddle-nged,

"Come, hand over the liver," demunded
the ex-colonel, i
"Stop a bit." spoke a voice not heard be
fore. It came from an old gentleman who
was quietly sipping Very weak grog near
the lire. "Stonewall Jackson was a South
American general. If so. the bet must be,
