The weathor was just right for tho sport, bo- fog nagreaoably cool and somowhat cloudy, Contrary to general expoctation, and perhiaps meoatly to their own surpriso, the Whites ex- perienced no difilenlty whatover in taking hold of Mauning's poculiar style of pitcbing, which gave tham so much trouble in Monday's gamb, but the Baltimores wora not 80 fortunato with Zettloin, Tive safo hita woro all they could make on him, aud tho very fact that Malona put out n0 losy thuw oloven mon bobind tho bat shiows how futilo, in many Instances, wero their at- tempts to hit the bull squarely, In tho absonco of Barron, who was {ll, Tlugh Roed, of tho Frankling, plaved right flold for tho Baltimores, and had Jittlo or nothing to do. Jos Simmons, a mombier of formor Winte Stocking nines, acted 88 nmpire, and gave good satisfaction. The game bogan st tha usual hour, with tha Whites at tho bat. ko only striker who reachod firat base in the opening lnning was Forco, aud had it not boen for a fumble of n groundor by Brainard at second ho would havo been put out like the others, The Balimoroa rotired ae fast a8 thoy wont to bat, wenk hitting making tho flelding A comporatively easy muttor.

Meyerlo bit » hob grounder to White, who found it conve- nient to ake a mufl, thus enabling Force to reore. Tho side was then put out, with two un- onrnod rune, Tho Baltiwores went to tho bat, just becauso it was part of the gamo to do so, and, thore being no hits and no_ Hclding errors, thoy took tho ficld again, Tho Whites scored an- other uvearned run in the fourth ivning.
