Figures as to the League Championship and thé Work of Chicago Players. THE CHAMPIONSHIP. ¢ ‘The week just closed has been an eventful one in championship circles. Chicago, through winning three and losing one game, has increased its lead to five in games won” CJeveland has tied Worcester for second place, each with nine won and seven lost; Providence stands next, with eight won and seven lost; Bos- ton and Troy are a tie on games won, seven each, Troy having played one less and lost one less game; Cincinnati has come abreast of Buffalo in games won, with one Jess played and lost. The game of yestetday ‘at Boston is scored as a gaine lost, though it appears that it was played under protest by Capt. Anson, the Bustons having brought George Wright on the field to play short- stop, though no notice had_been received of his release by the Providence Club from the “tive-players” agreement. Itis barely pos- sible such a notice may have been sent with- gut the Smowledge of Anson prior to yester- day’s game, and in that case George Wright would be eligible to play; but if no such re- lease had been granted he was no more eligible to play than as though he were an expelled player, and the gajue in which he took part would be forfeited by the club employing him.

CHICAGO. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Boston, Mass., May 29.—The game to-day between the Boston and Chicago teams was Witnessed by 4,800 people. It was full of bad errors, close decisions, splendid batting and base running, and was exciting through- out. The fact that the visiting club made six runs on four base hits in their first, and that the Bostons were far behind all through the game, did not prevent the crowd from work- ing itself up thto a state of great excitement. The Bostons’ catchers were very unlucky. Trott, the ew man, putonefinger out of joint ttrice in different places, and retired. Powers took his place, and reopened a sore finger. Berg totk his place, and, as he can’t catch Bond, Foley camé into pitch. This last change was inthe seventh inhing. George Wright pliyéd short, and’ the githe was, therefore, under Anson’s “protest.” The Bostons went to bat first, and on Burdock’s tivo-base hit, errors by Williamson and Cor- epran, and a long fly scored two runs. The Chicagos scored six on hits by Williamson, Corcoran, Kelly, and Flint, two passed balls, a wild pitch, and a base on balls. In the sec- ofid both clubs blanked. In the third the Bostons made two onadouble by Jones, a single by Foley, and a fumble by Burns. The Chicazos made two on Hits by Kelly and Cor- coran, a passed ball, and a missed third strike; on which the runner was fielded out at second. In the fourth the Bostons made one on a hit by Wright, who got sécorid bn Flint’s poor throw, a sacrificé hit by Powers, and Jones’ long fly to Gore. The Chicagos were blankéd. Dalrymple mode a tywo-baser to right field, but was fielded out on a quick, long throw to second and third in trying to réach thé latter base. In the fifth both clubs failed toscore. Ib the sixth thé Bostons niade three and tled the game. Foley made a single; Powers was given his base, Jones made a single, and James O'Rourke a double,—the last three men coming to bat after two were out. The Chicagos made one on a threebaser by Williamson aiid a-single by Anson. in the seventh the Bostons did not score, but the Chicogos made one. Cor coran was given his base on_ balls. The next two went out. Quest madé a safe hit, and Corcoran came in, having been ad- vanced by au error and a play. In the eighth the Bostons scored three. Wright was given his base on a muff by Dalrymple, Jones got his on poor playing by Quest, who held the ball too long in trying to make a double play, and as he stood between the bases neither man was out. Wright got third by a good Tun on a passed ball, and both came hom: on O'RKourke’s three-baser. The latter came in on Burdock’s long fly. The Chicagos made no moreruns. In the eighth Anson madea hit, but was thrown out at second. In the last Corcuran was given his base on balls, and was also thrown out at second, having run over the base. ‘THE SCORE. z A/R/B) T/P|AE 8} 4/21 af of of 0 5] 2] 3{ 5] 4) 1/2 5{ 1/2] 2) 8] 5) 1 5] of 1) 8] 31 2) 0 5| O| 0] Of 1] Oo} 2 5] 1] 2} 2] 6] Bf 1 5] 0} 0) 0) of 2) 2 4/211] 11 of 3) 0 2) 0] 0] a} 3} o) 0 8] 9] 0} of 0] of 0 3] 1) Of 0] of 4) 3 a7] 11) 9]15)27)20] 9 s| 0} 1/2} 2] 1/1 5 1] of 0} 8] o| 0 5) 2] 2] 4] 2].2) 2 4] 1) 3] 3] 6] 21 0 5| 2] 3] 5] 0] ol o 4{ 3] 2] 2} oj 6] 1 5| If 1) 2) 9] 213 4} o} 1) 1] 2] 3) 3 4) 0} 2) 1) 3) 1) & Total... -41|10|14/20)27,35|11 innings— 456789 Boston 6303 0-1 Chicago. 001.10 0-10 Earnt i, 2; Chicago. 3.

Mr. Grant Warren, official scorer of the Buffalo Club, is visiting with friends in this city. The Tioys will play off that contested gaiue with the Providence Club on Sept. 23 or Oct. 1. Mitchell has had an offer to play in Chica- go with the Franklins, Foley and Fisher are going to play there. John O'Rourke, who was injured in Mon- day’s game with the Troys, is not as seriously hurt as was at first presumed. Richmond, hayiiig graduated from Brown University, will hereafter pitch in all the League games with the Worcesters. The latest bulletin from Big Brown, the boosted Bostonian, is that he is training for the prize ring. Itis a query whether he will want to fight with the mask. ‘ The Cincinnatis meet Jim White at Wor- cester on Monday, and he will play first-base for them in Tuesday’s game. Sam Wright will leave the club at that place. It is said that Harry Wriglit has been en- gaged already to manage a team in Philadel- phia next season; and that he is after Knight and Wood, of the Worcesters, to play in the new club. : McGunnigle, after receiving word from the Buffalo directors that he would be released in Sven days, ininediately gfananted a a papers,” arid got theii. ew retire tran the ball field Bad devote his time his business in Buffalo. POLITICAL TRICKERY. A Specimen of It Exposed: A Tripune reporter had a conversation yes- terday with a prominent politician of Dakota Territory. The gentleman 1s stopping at one of the léading hotels, and; as he did not wish hisname mentioned, we will merely give the substance of the interview. “Iam an anti-Grant Republican, long a resident of Dakota, held office under Grant, andam familidr with the politics of tie country and political history. _ Before 1 left Dakota I saw a letter, wiitten by Don Cameron .to_a ,member of the National Republicm’ Executive Comnmiittee, urging him to be present at Chicago, or to be represented there by a Gtant Proxy. Cameron spoke with the utmost confidence of the cértainty of Grant’s nomination, and seemed to be workiiiz with some inderstand- ing of how they were to manage, but did not specify. Itseemed that they expected to con- trol the. Convention by proxy or otherwise. Another gentleman told me that Charles T. McCoy, a delegate-elect from Dakota, had received some time before a letter from Conkling urging hitn to secure a place as delegate for Grant, tind that he should be liberally rewarded and_ taken care of here- after for hisservices in this respect. Mc- Coy went ta work very actively, securing proxies and delegates te the late Convention at Fargo, and made combinations, and_ gaye promises recklesly to candidates for Congress, He and his friends thus succeeded in making him a delegate. McCoy and the man to whom Don Cameron wrote consulted together. and the latter gave to the former his proxy as mem- ber of the Republican National Comittee, when McCoy immediately started for Chi- cago. He is, therefore, secretly or actively a Grant man, though elected as a Washburne or Blaine man. The other delegate from Dakota is Porter Warren, editor ot the Dead- wood Times, He declares steadfastly fur Blaine, even in acard since his choice; but he is a ‘soldier of fortune’ in politics, and ¥ fear quite unreliable, The anti-third-term men here should take him in hands and keep him straight.” 2 : In further conversation the gentleman from Dakota said he had other facts which went to show that “the corrupting power of public plunder” is being used by the trium- viratu elsewhere, and that promises are being made to other Territorial delegates to brin; them to Grant. ‘We all know,” he said, “how dependent upon Exectitive favor are Territorial politics and appointments. There is considerable patronage also, and the offices that are worth anything come mainly from the Executive. Knowing the Territories as I do, I am inclined to fearthat these proin- ises will win the Territorial delegates, and 1 fear many of them have gone in as MeCoy did, under previous promises, and that others will be cor- ruptéd. The same puwer makes me fear that other delegates from States will be cor- rupted,—especially from the South, The whole situation shows that the triumvirate are in desperate earnest, and will nominate Grantif possible, and that he will accept if given it by one majority in a Convention inade up as they seek to make up this.” — “My Tormented Back,» is the exclamation of more than one poor, hard- working man and woman; do you know why It aches?

While coming this a with a tow of lumber Indeu barges, the propeller Favorite broke the eylinder head Gf one of her engines, and re- turned to Menominee for repairs. The barges sought shelter in Builey’s Harbor, where they now lie. Lust evening the Vessel-Owners’ Tow- ing Association tug Favorite received ordera to tow them to this port. She will probably leave for Bailey's Harbor this morning. ‘The schooner M. Capron was brought in con- tact with 2 scow last evening while being towed down the South Brauch, and had ja plank in her bow crushed. PORT NOTES. Decoration-Day, the rain, and the absence of a fleet, made matters very dull at the lumber market last evening. ‘The delayed fleet of lumber-vessels began to arrive at o'clock last evening, and for u time the bridges were kept swinging iu a iively man- \ ner.” Beside thdse towed directly to docks, not Jess than ten moored at the lumber market. Nearly all of the safl vessels chartered yester- day for grain cargoes will be loaded to-day, as it was utterly impossible to put any grain on board of thom while the rain listed. “The press- ure upon the elevators for the storage-room causes this resort to Sunday work. ‘ A beavy sea broke upon the west shore from in easterly direction last evening.. ‘he swell running Into the harbor was so heavy that smull tugs were prevented from towing’ vessels out into the lake, and the larger tugs had to do the work, Capt.

The New York correspondent of the Boston Advertiser says: The prominence into which the Marquis of Hartington has recently come in -English political lite nas revived memories of his conduct at New: York during the War of the Rebellion. Sdine égsy-zoing souls seein to dep- récate this resuscitation of the matter; but, since people are tulking in an uuiustructed way of the gross outrase perpetrated by the Enzlish visitor, it is well that it should be known that be wus by no merns permitted tp commit such an act withimpunity. Therefore, I have taken thé mins to collate the facts of thé cusc. Lord Hartington ‘arrived in New York after a tour of the South. Itgocs without saying that he sym- pathized with the Lost Cause, and declared this syinpathy. Mr. August Belmont gave a ball, at which he was among the guests. He entered into conversation with a well-known lady, who, while living among Yankoes and mudsills, de- spised them. He hastened to assure her that he wus, heart and soul, on her side. She said that words meant little. Would he, dare support them Ve wearing » Confederate badge in that roum if she gav¢ it to him? Most certainly be would, and he put it on. Among tke. guests were 2 numberof officers on n furlough from the front. Doubtless some of them did not no- tice the badge for a few moments, but it was not long before Mr. Jobn Hecksher . attracted the noble Lord's attention by a forcible gesture, and succevded in drawing him away from the Jadies, Then he briefly told him the obnoxious badge was instuntly removed; hoe would put an unbearable public insult, on him without deluy. Lotd Hartington, a large man, with a red’ beitrd, hemmed and bawed ai little, ind then took of the badge. In the meantime the matter had become known, and 2 perfect stotm of indignation hit arisen, Within atew hours the noble Lord received between ten or twenty challenges, and was informed by the senders that no une would waive his rights; and that he would have to fight them allit he survived go long. ‘Ton wrathful assemblage at 4 Well-known club came the host with peaceful and mediutory purpose, and back speedily went he hopelesly unsuccessful. Final 4 the noble Lord met 1 committee of the challengers antl mado an apology which was deemed sufficient, and wis accordingly accepted. Que ean imagine him, after goting ead with his humiliating business, sitting and igoking very much as bo does in 2 picttire in Harper's Weekly of an op- position bench in the last Parliament.

Locker. ENGLISH COMMENTS ON FRENCH FASHION. A writer in the London Spectutor takes English women to task for their blind fol- lowing of French fashion, She says, for it may be concluded that the writer isa woman: “To the worst follies of fashion we remalii constant, and these worst follies are the re-- sults of our followitig French fashion in dress,—fashioiis which, we believe, are as truly ugly, judged by a standard of noble beauty, as it is possible to find, though the ugliness be disguised by French finish and French cleverness. Yet these fashions have déformed the appeararice of all the richer classes throughout Europe and America for many years past. Whiat fs this French taste; Wliich is believed in more firmly than any dogma of religion by so many? Crinolines, high heels, and tight stays—dv not all these monstrosities owe their existence to the French taste, atid do these uot emanate dis- tinetly from an utter Insensibility to what is reully ugly? Yet have net all civilized nations renounced any really national opinion as to the best clothing thelr women are to wear, and do not milliners from all qpuntsies flock to Paris to be instructed in e art of how they are to dress. their cus- tomers? If weare bold enough to declare Freneh fashions truly ugly, we must. as- suredly find some reason to account for their world-wide popilatity. The French have, undoubtedly, an, instinct for a certain kin of fitness in’ external matters, a gift of in- genuity li the atrangetiient and vombination of effects novel, and even fascinating; to the eye. As.a nation they may be said to ‘have a true genius for arranging an etteet,; and th genius they develop with great industry a @ superabundant vanity. ‘Th ities work together in producing 4 cleverness and finish in execution unrivaled. in the civ! products of any other country. earelesly passed over in good French work nothing istoo smail or too evanescent for the good French workiian and workwoinaii toemploy their ingenuity on. With their special kind of taste they flaver the material with a savor of art; biit_do they not also, it may be asked, flavor their art with too strong asavor of their material world ? If a French evok can imix and elaborate the appear- ance of 2 mayomiaise su that it might al- most beclassed as u work of tirt, does not the French painter too. often lower his art till its chief worth Hésin what it suggests of what is material only? And, it we look closely into the subject, probably we sliull find that the more the arts rise in the scale of umat interest, the less can the Frencli taste satisfy us in such arts. For instance, in cooking they are supreme, as also in the ar- rangement of all cheerful comforts, where no wsthetic longings touch on the moral and re- ligious necessities of northern nations; in dress, though we defy so much of the world in saying so, they failentirely, if the vérité yraie in this hiatter of good dressing Hes in the arrangement of garments which develope and accentuate all the nobility of form to be found in the human figure, and all the beauty of the materials used for such garments, Ap- parently the French are wanting in the sense Nothing is . of beauty in structure, and their sensibilities are also blunt with regard to the beauty of form and movement. No sense of beauty de- ters French taste from working out its inge- nufty on éxtravagant fancies. Thus the: tilt down the feet by high-pointed heels till, a5 a great English artist has said, many feet beconie ore the shape of hoofs tha of hu- nan extremitiés; they nip the figure in two with tightlacing, exactly where every ease and play should be given to show the swaying grace of necessary and beautiful movements; and, if crinolines have subsided, Freneh in- vention is ingenious in finding some way of tightening or putting a dress so that the uress and the figure that wears iy should be two distinct forms, with seperate actions, ard often contradictory niovement ue why, then, does évery modern society imitate the taste that invents such ridiculous fashions— irideed, nore than imitate, exaggerate and caricature -them? It is probably because they are carried out With such Ynimitable skill that their real ugliness and silliness are disguised to people whose mids are soine- what vague and whose senses are somewhat bluiit In external matters, ind who follow thie lead of those who pe such practical, fn- dustrious energy into the subject, and whose self-assurance inspires faith in other léss self-confident natures, And undoubtedly, if we are to have French fashions, let us have the merits as well as the absurdities. If they are ugly, certainly English, Gerttian, and Italian copies of them ure moreso. This is natural, as in execution lie-their only merits, and it is easy to imitate and exaggerate the eccentricities of “French taste; but it re- quires a different kind of temperament than that possessed either by the English, Ger- man, or [talian nations to put so much vital interest into the detiils of vostume as would producé tlie perfection of wurkinanship which we see in the details of French gar- ments.” IT WILL NEVER BE PLAYED. A Detroit Free Press, “By gum!” Mr. and Mrs. Defod sat before a cheerful fire in their home the other evening. There had been a long period of silence, when Mr. Defoe suddenly exclaimed as above. 3 “What is it, dear?” she responded. “Say, we've got tired of playing games, and what do you say to private theatricals?” “Tow ?”, “Why, we'll get three or four of the neizh- bors to join in, and we'll meet at each other’s houses and have regular plays.”* “ That will be splendid!” she gasped: “Hanged if it won't! Wonder we never thought of it before: ; Twenty dollars wili get us all the scenery we want, and each one at, unless. fie iden ow! it the idea iow z at sort of a play could ‘ve play?” she asked, as he marched up and down with tragic step. . ef ve it—akal? he exclaimed, as_he stoped sliore “Don’t you remember i started to write a play about five years ag0? YH tinish it, and we'll bring itout. Now, jet’s see how the characters run. ‘There is Count Dumdoff, who is in love with Ger- ihe ret the Fair. ah the Count, of course, as he is the hero. He kills four men, rescues ers; and there ig several dan; Geraldine from jovemaking, aud agood del of kissing and a happy marriage.” ee craldinic.” se nesou “edtldn’t play that part. “You hy yOu ct She must be younger and ‘vitaclous. eb’s see!

You are a ale shit in the knees, and how you'd [ook rowing yourseif in my arms a pursue, 8 shalt cast that little Widow D. for Geraldine.” “Then there'll be two Geraldines of us! If you can play Dumdof, with your lame bitek and catarrh, I know I can play Geral- dine with this ‘little Iameness in iy left knee.” 5 “Now you listen to reason, Mrs. Defoe: You aren't built for a Geraldine; you are too fat; yuttr feet are too large; you haven’t got the voice for it.” “And you'd niake a pretty Count Dum- dof, yoti would!” she fired back. “You vant to get that crook out of your back, that bald head shingled over, your mouth re- paired, and your eyes touched up with a paint-brush! [think I see you killing four yillaing,—ha! hat hal’? < p “Woman! do not anger mie!’’ he said, in as he rose up. a Ueep-toned voice, Dd. Geraldine, “And don’t you anger your either !”” “Geraldine! Why, you don’t know asky- border froin a flat!’ “ Dumdoff! - And you don’t know a Skye terrier from a big fiddle in the orchestra!” ‘Tis well! We'll have no playing here!” “Phen youneedn’t!

ENGLISHM BEDROOMS. ‘The ordinary English bedroom is arranged as follows, says Mrs: Julian Hawthorne in the Bazur: The bed, a handsome spring and hatr-mattressed (sometimes, alas! feather- bedded) brass structure, stands with its head against the wall, the foot projecting into the room; arourid its feet sweeps a full valance; find the’ half-tester, with its amply-falling, gracefully-festooned drapery, undoubtedly tiakes it a more imposing object, carrying thé eyé at once to the raison d’étre of the room. The windows are fully draped tocor- respond, and a sofa and one or two easy- chairs show that the room is intended to be occupied by its owner at odd moments wheri rest and quiet gre desirable. Filling up the largest space of blank wall stands a mighty wardrobe, seven or eight feet long and as high, divided into three compartments, each having a separate door, the middle one gen- erally containing a full-length mirror. «Across the window, if there be but one, or if two, between them, is placed the dressing-table. Of late this is soinetime in the duchesse style, a long mirror, wlth drawers on either side; but in the most thoroughly English houses it is a long deal table, the edge curved in yarilus shapes, and draped . to mitch the bed, or with muslin and lace over colored cambric; thé mirror stands on top, and is usually draped to match the table. ‘These tables aré very pretty and cheap, as any carpenter can make the table, and it is easily made to look pretty by liome fingers. No such union of drawers and_ glass as the American bureau is known in England, and their chest of drawers is the ugiest piece of furniture in their bedrooms, By dint of hav- ing buok-shelves fitted over it, and using the space in frontof them to hold pretty orna- inents atid boxes, its stiffness can be some- what relieved. The great double wash-stand, with top and back of blue or brown Minton tiles, its quaintly shaped toilet-ware of latest fashion, sparkling yater-bottles and glusse and porcelain slop-jar and foot-tub standing beneath it inakes a very pretty bit of light and colorin the room, though anything but an agteexble object in the eyes of an Amerti- can, used to abundanceof hot and cold water at will. Lastly, the fireplace, with brass fenders and irons, tiled hearth, thick rug and shelyes and mirror abuve the brightly glow- ing fire, completes the room. ‘The chiet dif- ference between.a middle class and an aris- tocratic bedroom lies in the wood of which the furniture is nidde, in the more ot less brassiness of the bedstead, and in the mate- tial of which curtains and draperies are com- posed; the main outlines and. the arrange- ment are the same. FEMININE USEFULNESS. In an article on ‘Ideals of Feniiniie Use fulness,” in the Fortnightly Review, Edith Seincox considers the lives of those two plilanthropic English women, Dorothy Pat- tison (Sister Dora) and Mary Carpenter. In the course of the article she touches upon 4 point which has probably occasioned not a little thought to all those interested in the lives of women of spécial carvers. She says: “We are tempted to ask whether this (hap- pily elastic) theory of the ‘womanly sphere’ isin any way answerable for the undercur- rént of melancholy coinmon to the lives of two women as strong, as. different, and is successtul as Dorothy Pattison and Mary Carpenter. Both were thoroughly sane in body and mind, with well-proportioned, equally developed natures, free frotit any morbid Jeanings, and both found their way at last to the work for which they were supremely fitted. And yet, réverenced, adored, arid valued as the. inemory of cach and the work of both must be, it: ii is certain at most olFfashtoned levers in 18 womanly sphere? will turn from the two 5 4 passionate sigh: ‘ Poor things! they tvould have been happier married and with a pack ot children.’ Clearly it is titdre iiiportant that the Bristol ragamuffins should be re- elaiined; aud the jails of Bonibay and Mon- dreal reformed, than that one inuré Noncon- forinist minister should have an exeiiplary wife; itis more important that as many ds are sick or sorry in Staffordshire should have. Dora for their sister than that she should be happy (if she could) in brighten- ing a single home. But the very question that we wish to raise is beggared by this way of stating thé alternative. ‘tt is not in sane human nature to fetl permanent regret be- cause things inutually exclusive cannot be possessed together. Woinen as well as inen can find genuine happitiess in the ‘ best pos- sible? life; they are not condemned by nat- ure to spend strength in yearning after some composite impossibility; and it may be that if our two sane and sensible heroines fail to find content in the best possibilities onen ‘eos Bbeinsel yess re fault may fie not w m but in the arbitrary ext - its of the possibility.” See ar FEMININE NOTES.

To tha Editor of The Chicago Tribune, InpranApor.ts, Ind., May 28.—I can namé a ticket that would sweep every Staté north of Mason aid Dixon, and come as néar car: rylng Sottthern States as any that cin pg named, and the ticket is: . For President—James G. BLAINE. = For Vice-President—Euimu B. Wasm BURNE. : This combination of star actors gives us 9 Solid North, and the Bourbons might thei go to thunder with their Solid South, as wa. should lay over their pile big. Blaine and Washburne would make Indiana’s Electoral vote a8 certain for the Republican party ag tliat of Illinois or Maine. It would bé happy union of the East and West. Biaing on the ticket would make Washburne pal atable to those who might not enthuse over him separately, and vice versa. It would be ahappy blending of the East and West in the persons of two of their best arid strong. est men. " * Washburne would undoubtedly éxercise§ great influence in Blaine’s Adminis! in foreign policies and appointments, as well as in home politics and dispensation of patronage, especially in the West. Ihave nodoubt that Blaine would irivite him to take an_honoriry, seatin his Cabinet, ashe would gladly avail himselt of the careful and wise advice of so able a counselor. Unfortunately for himself, Washburne has assumed such an attitude on the Presidéncy, has so positively and frequently declared that he will not consent to antagonize his old personal friend Grant, that. it seemis next tg impossible to bring about such astaté of things as will enavle his friends to concen trate upon him for the head of the ticket. ‘The three bosses will never permit Grant's naine to be withdrawn until after their mai is defeated and another nominated, nd therefore Washburne cannot be brought for- wiitd with hisconsent pending. this part of the struggle. When Grant is defeated it will be too late for arally on Washburne, z 1s it not, therefore, the true policy of ths auti-third-termers to pool their issues on Blaine, nominate him for the first place, and then turn in and noininate Washburne for thesecond highest office in the gift of ths, American people? It is a very nice office, to” say tlie least. Thé_salary is a cool $10,004 year, and the Vice-President is not required to live in Washington or be there except during the sessions of the Senate, and. even then only when he pleases, as the Senate always elects a temporary_presiding officer to act in the absence of the Vice-President. It would be a highly honorable and useful place for the old veteran Stalwart. I wish yot would place these Suggestions , before your teaders, as I believe they will strike the uiinds of thousands as the wisest course at action the great Convention can adopt.
