PROVIDENCE. ‘The first encounter of the Providence and Chicago teans yesterday brought out about 1,500 péople, nn proved to be & game of strong interest from firat to last. There were plenty of errors, but there was also plenty: of hard hitting, and, while tho visitors showed best at the bat, their field pluy wis infertor, and they were also unablo to inass thelr hit- ting so ns to produce results, They pounded Corcoran with great zeal, punishing him tn one inning for three doubles and one single. Flint started in as catcher, but In the . second inning, while himself at bat, foul ball glanced off tho bat and struck with great force on the end of his nose. It was at first feared the noso was broken, but on examination by a physician It proved to be split on the end, and not broken, ‘I'he injury was so severe ng to necessitate lis: retire- ment, Kelly taking his place, while Gotd- smith donned a uniform and went Into right field. The changes worked well, Kelly cnteh- ing a strong game, while Goldsmith's batting and flelding were adinirable. Corcoran was not ns effective ng usual, and was: hit harder even than would appear froin the record of clean hits. ‘Lhe outfield had a great dea) to do io take care of tho long and strong hits, and Gore, Dalrymple, and Goldsinith were constantly 4n netive employmont,“A running citten by Gore olf Gross’ pat wna oxtraordinary, and ro- sulted In a double piny; Goldamith jumped up Qguingt the rlght-teld fence Rnd got one in gront: style; and Dalrytnplo ran in for x low lnor and tual it close to the ground. Anson's work at Orst base was vory fine, a onc-band catch of a wide-thrown ball bolug loudly appluuded. Of tue Providenco players, Hines and Ward wero the only ones who showed to especial advantugo tn tho teld.
