All of the Chicago boys are in good health, except Dairymple and Anson, but the trouble with the latter fs not of go gerious 2 nature as to prevent bis playing as uétal.: Dalrymple is expected to be all right in aweek or two. . . When: the skies cleared sway yesterday morn- ing it became apparent that the. game would be played, and, in consequence, at 3:30 o'clock an audietice numbering 2,500 had assembled at the grounds to witness the contest of the home team with the nine over which so much blowing and puffing was done by the Cincinnati papers early in the season. The result, as everybody snticipsied, was that Ancon’s men defeated and sguelcbed them in a most summary and decisive abdtiner, the score bemg5toL. The game de- monstrated that, s0 far as ball-playing is con- cerned, the Cincinnati ‘nine. is’ inferior totany ‘League organization that has vis- ited - Chicago this. season. - Will - White’s Pitching was remarkably effective, and this fact operated greatly in favor of the other members Of the nine, not one of whom, with the excep- tion of Hotaling, had a difficult ball to handle. For the first five innings the Chicagos confined their efforts to knocking foul bounds and send- ing up soft flys, all of which were taken.. They were’ peculiarly unfortunate in having men left on bases, but, in spite of all these disadvantaze- ous ‘circumstances, knocked ont a creditable victory, if winning a game from Cincinnati can “be'said to be a credit. The only run that the visitors obtained was in. the first inning. - They lost the toss, and Hotal- ‘ing, the first man at bat, mocked along fly to Gore, who muffed it while on the, run, Hotaling getting to second on the’ play. “Barnes sent a grounder to. Quest, and died at first. Jim White, efter Knocking several foul flips over, the Jeft-field' fence, finally sent safe one be- tween left and centre fields, on which he resched first, Hotaling going to third, froth whence he tallied on McVey’s hot bounder to right field, the same being muffed by Shaffer. From this time until the last half of the sixtn inning not a ran was scored, both sides gener- ully going out in one, two, three order. In the fourth inniny Anson and Shaffer Jed off for the home team with safe hits, and, being advanced a base‘ apiece by a wild pitch, things locked wellfor a run or two. But it was not .to be, Quest and Larkin sending up tittle flys which were captured ‘by. McVey and Gerhardt, and - Gore ingloriously striking out. id thie si inning a_very extraordinary oc- currence took place. Just before the White- Stockings went to bat, their black cat “Cham- pion” was observed to iséue from the club-house and station himselZ. in centre field. The boys saw the “move and took heart.. Anson’ was flyed by Barnes, - Shaffer hit safely to left,.and Quest sent. a long fly in the same direction. Dickerson ran for it, but. became so interested "in tic cat, which was contemplating his actions with a grave aspect, that he made a bad.mail : Larkin went out on a foul fly. to Kelly, but Gore (from Sacarappa, Ae.) banged a vicious grounder between second and third. . Shaffer started to run, and, finding Bartes in his way, ‘was obliged to remore him, and then came home amid cheers. . -Hankinson sent a fly to right, but dim White muffled it, Quest ana Gore scoring. : ~The boys vost had the lead, bot the cat. still stayed-around., In the eighth inning, after the - Cincinnatis had been retired as usual, without a Yun or base-hit, there was some old-time bat- ting. Quest, the first striker, flew out to Hotaling, bnt Larkin sent the ball.over the right-field fence and trotted to second. ‘Gore sent Terry home by. a corking hit to right centre. : Hankinson was out by Gerhardt to McVey, Gore going to thira. When Flint came to the plate and sent acorker to left field, on which Gore ‘tallied, the crowd did some more yellitig, and in the midst of the’ excitement ‘‘ Champion ” was” seen making a’ break through the grass « for. home, and the nine felt that enough had been. done. Neither side tallied in the ninthinning, although forthe Cincinnatis Kelly got in a nice tivo- baser to left field. Williamson was sent to first on bails, and after Anson’s tly to left had been -caught by Dickerson, Shaffer reached first on Foley’s muff of his grounder, Williamson gob to second. . Quest popped up 4 little fly whic! Barnes purposely dropped and then threw the ball to Foley. forcing out Williamson. It -was returned to Gerbardt in time to catch Shaffer, and thegamewasended. 2. * There were no very brilliant playa on “either side. In the seventh inning Hotaling took Ap- |. son's Jong fis to centre after a hard run, and in the ninth Peters‘created considerable enthusi- asm by a pretty stop and long throw off Jim White’s bounder to short jeft field.

The facts are about.as follows: Last “Thursday. the Wuite Stockings went down to Indfanapolis from Cincinnati to play a game with some kind of arag-tag and bobtail nina of that town. It will be remembered that last year Flint, Quest. aud Shaffer ‘of the- present Chicago team were mewbers of the Indianapolis nine, at that time a League organization. The concern was backed up by well-known business |. Ten, und so responsible did they prove to be that nearly all the men were beaten’ out’ of a. “portion of theirsalary, Quest being stuck for over $400. Having been bamboozled in this manner by the’ Club stockholders, Flint, Quest, aud Shaffer did not feel like paying sundry bills which they were allezed to owe these same parties, aud went away. without settling the same.-'Jadement for the amounts due were obtained, and the reniorseless creditors Jaid low, * When the Whites weat upon the Indianapolis grounds last Thursday'to play, Capt. Anson Was approached by a party who introdueed him- self as a Constable, said he had a’writ to serve on Shaffer and Flint, and that nothing would please him so much as to lug those young men Off to jail, which he proposed to do at once. Anson took the impetuous. Constable by the collar, walked him back of the grand-stand, and | argued the case. He said that, while not desir- ing.to encourage the violation of !aw or thwart its agents in any Pisa they might have prepared for the capture of persous who had transgressed its domain, he still wanted to play that game of ball, aud would be unabic todo so unless Flint and Shaffer were alluwed to roam in freedom for a short time. After tue “game the Constable could go ahead. ‘This catisficd the man, and he retired, When the game was over the boys jumped into a *bus, drove to their hotel, and dressed as rapidly as possible. Then Flint and Shaffer adopted the Arabian plan of moving, and stole silently away—out .through the back door. They skirmished through alleys and back yards for s while, and finally brought upat a pointconsiderably beyond the depot from which the train started. ‘Ihe rest of the bays went down to the ‘bus which «as waiting in front of the hotel to convey.them to the de- pot. Thcy were somewhat appalled at the sight of a brawny Constable who stood at tho Tear end of the vehicle, evidently waiting for- somebody.. He’ made no _ move, however, until Anson came out of the hotel. When the burly mini up, tapped him on the shoulder, and said, “ Hello, Flint!”” | rest\of the boys and the . ing the usual route, both occupying one sleep- “My name ain’t Flint,” was the response, “Then you are Shaffer?” ‘ - “No I am not Shaffer, and I want you-to mind your own business and Jet me alone.” a ‘Then the Constable made a grab at Anson, and the latter told him to quit fooling or he would knock him down. i a “No you won't,” said the Constable. |” “Yes I will,” revlicd Anson; and then, ‘as if reflecting on the exact extent to which be would knock him, added: “Pll knock b—1 out of OU) ss. ae This settled it for the time, 2s the Constable concluded that the promised performance would contain features anything but agreeable. So the ’bus drove off, followed af a respectful dis- , tance by the Constable, a small’ army: of yery dirty and enthusiastic boys on the lodkout for aficht.bringing uo the. rear. The procession moved slowly through the principal streets; the ‘bus-driver grinning from ear to ear, the White Stockings laughing, and the Constable running a_ waiting race,’ occasionally’ stopping to whale some of the. small boys, all of whom took great delight in reviling the official, occa- sionally varying the performance, by offering to sve fair playin case he really wanted to have a round or two with Anson. People came out of stores to witness the singular spectacle, and for atime the mercantile interests. of Indianapolis ‘were almost entirely negiected. Finally the depot was ‘reached, and Anson started out to check the baevage for Cincinnati. By this-time the Constable had secured the assistance’ of six stalwart policemen, and the prevarations for besieging Anson were compicte, When he. came ont of the waiting-room. the Constable again addressed him as “Flint.” Ansou réplied that’ he was busy,'nnd told the man not to bother him. But’ the fellow was persistent. Finally the ehraged White Stocking sec language in “which a big, big D was yery icemen had“ been: waiting for, as they at once pounced upon. Anson and dragged him to the statidn-house, the balance of. the ning following their Captain, and indole gloomy anticipa- tions as to where the championship might be at. the end of: the season were thcir leader to be incarcerated {p' an Indiana dungeov.: Arrived top of an apple barrel’ in front. of o neighboring . grocery,’ . where -he had been. passing the afternoon and .informed that ous buccanecer from “Chicago, who had told a Consiable to zo to h—ll, was to be tried. Anson pleaded guilty, and the Court said it would be $23, Then a lawyer from Lafayette, who was on hand, very kindly. injected himself into the case, aud sdid that’ Anson did not plead guilty, and that the proceedings were an outrage on Justice, ‘whose God-like figure surmounted the building in which bis ‘Honor -presided; that to . inflict such a punishment on blue-eved boy -in -the dock would, bring the gray hairs of Hulbert down in the. American Constitution was the palladium of liberty and also of ball-players. : His Honor. then said that, in view of these unexpected developments, the fine would be re- duced to $16.50. Auson paid thé bill and went back to the hotel, fondly imaginine that bis troubles were over. . But. he was badly-mis- taken. ‘Scon after supper a feiy “more Con- stables came aronnd; and one of*them who could read gecited the contents of -a warrant to. tlié ¢hraged first baseman, the document stating that the body of the said A.C. Atison ” was. earpestiy desired by the people of theState of In- diana, on the charec of ‘ profanity and provoke,”” This was a bitherto unheard-of crime to most of the boys, but Quest explained it by saying that the profanity w! ‘ovoked by the police- ina, anc that, Avson wanted for both of- fensez.. There was nothing to do but submit, and again the little band of ball-players wended their way to'the police station, wonderiie what bad become of Flintand ‘Shaifer, and .whether those unbapny young men were still wandering through backyards and lacgrating, their shins on ssh-boxes.- About ’ this time things looked. blue, and ‘Larkin offered to bet:$7: to. $3 that something had happened to the black cat at home. Wuen the’ statton-house was reached it was learned that the-Court had adjourned him- self, and the. policeman~in charge said that the usual, price for “profanity and provoke”? wWas'$25, und that -if-Anson would deposit $30 he (the policeman) would take’ the chances. ‘The moncy was left, and the solemn assemblage made one more. break for ‘the depot: - This time. they were successful.and got safely ont of town, Elint and Shaffer having preceded them on an earlier train. 1 tif. -When.Cincinndti was reached President Hul- bert and Capi. Anson held a council of war. It was resolved thal, in order to take no chances, Fiint and’ Shaffer should: be sent home via Richmond, ind. instead of ‘going . through Indianapolis. ‘So‘they went “that way, the Cincinnati temm com- ing-car. Iudiauapolis was reached at 11 o'clock, but before the train was within half a mile of the depot mysterious-looking men began board- ing it: When the halt was made about forty officers and citizens,‘ all armed to the teeth, jumped upon the sleeper containis the ball- Players, and began an active search for Shaffer and Flint. Everybody was asleep, and the most extraordinary methods of awakening them Were adovted. Ross’ Barnes was ina forward berth, and a big policeman stuck alighted match so close to hie nose that the usually amiable short stoo awoke with a gencral impression that a disastrous conflagration was raging, and that ‘be was-in the ‘ hottest part of it. .Upon_com- Prebending ‘the situation’ he. consigned the policeman to eternal flames, and agreed to per- forate his (the policeman’s) bédy with. bullets-if the match trick was repeated. Then that im- 4 ‘pethous young dlonde, Will’ White, was yanked alf way out of his bunk by-a. red-headed Con- stable on the ground that’ he was a notorious malefactor named Shaffer. Deacon. Jim White, who was peacefully reposing not far away, was awatcened by the racket, and his -fertile brain at once conceived 4 plan of action. ~ “Put ou your spectacles, Bill,” he shouted, “and then they'll know you.” »‘The spectacles Were adjusted, the Dall-player stood in the car aisle, attired ‘only in them and a nizht dress, which flapned uacasily about his slender legs as the wind whistled mournfully throughits folas, and he was'sared: ear . Then Quest stuck his ‘head out of a berth, aud Was immediately grabbed and told that’ he was ‘Wanted, Manifesting some disinclination to dress, he was informed that, unless he robed himself with spetd, a midnight street journey in 1¢ costume worn ~ by the Texas officer, - sans ~ the Was. among Captain hove in sight the law’s / peomipent, This was apparently what the! po- |: ul at the station, the Court was taken off the: he waé in session, and that bold and danger- |. spurs, the , immediate probabilities. . Then _ he dresded, and was arrested ona judgment for $45. By this time President Hulbert. had sulffed the battle from aother car, and came in.to ‘take command of the Chicago forces. A big officer was making superhuman efforts to induce Gore to turn rignt side, up aud . permit his face to be seep, but the young mah from Maine. said he would be everlastingly gosh-dunimed if he let any policeman -buu} bim out of- bed, and - bis “wishes were respected. ;'Viien Mr. Hulbert, Quest, and an officer went outside to settle tue bill, to, which, in Some mystcrious madner, $10 hed beet. suddenly-added. ‘The money was handed over, and asthe pale moon pecped’ iurtively over a bank of'dark clouds which lined the western ‘horizon she'saw the Constable sign a receipt for the same. The train then moved away, and In- dianapolis was again in‘a state of peace. species * -JEAGUE GAMES PLAYED.

The ki tariff which the Leagne makes it. obligat at all clubs to - charge has cansed mauch dissatis:zicion and un- fayoreble comment, and kept mauy from enjoy~ ing the sport who would otherwise bave done so. The meeting edopted a. new plan, which.ought to satisfy every patron, and which is the only one thus far discovercd which does ‘not violate the League agreement. It will’ be remembered that Jast year the spectator had to pay 25 cents admission, 15 cents to the erand stand, arid five |. cents for a score-card, making 45 cents. Last evenini: it was decided {6 sell a ‘ticket for $4 i Which will admit’ the bolder ten times, or the ‘owner and nine friends or less to one game, and also to give away score-cards. An arrangement bas been made with the. Buffalo Strect Railroad Company to sell for 50, cents a'ticket entitling the holder,to a ride out'and back and admission to the grounds.
