Wien Umpire Quinn called game | | at the end of the fifth inning, being induced by | | the rain to give the welcome tidings, the score stood 6 to 0, It was a comparatively easy task to accomplish, the Torontonians being abso- | lately unabie to solve the mystery of Keefe’s | delivery, Ebright backed him up well and hit the ball hard for three bases, The Canadian battery was Vickery and Grim, and they pleased the home team greatly, and they earned five of their six runs. In the second inning Myers and | Morrill hit hard for a base each, and then | Carney came to time witha beautiful hit to center field for a base. Ebright, not to be out- done, followed suit with «very hard drive to left on which he reached third base, while the | | crowd went wild. Keefe popped a little fly to left fieid and Ebright scored the fourth run, ‘The batting streak lapped over into the third inning, and two more runs resulted. Sweeny found a good ball, just where he wanted it, and then it went sailing out into the deep field, and Sweeny dropped his bat and dove ground three bases. Then a bad throw let him in, and | Myers soon scored ona base on balls, a wild pitch, a sacrifice by Morrill and Carney’s timely single.

Reverdy J. Brooke, a young man who, untila few days ago, was engaged in the livery busi- ness at 625 Gstrect northwest, was surprised last | Friday night by Detectives Raff and Block, who | read to him a warrant charging him with ob- taining goods by means of false pretenses, It is alleged that he purchased a trunk at the store of James $. Topham, and gave in pay- ment a worthless check on the Central National bank for $20. When Brooke was in business he had # bank account at that bank, but was recently notified that his account these was overdrawn, It is alleged that he continued to give checks in payment for purchases at the stores of many Washington merchants. When arrested he asserted that he had no money, but wheu the officers searched his room they found $500 in his trunk, which was filled with cloth- ing. ong the alleged worthless checks the prisoner is charged to have passed are: One to james S. Topham, 220; Dan Maho $ ‘Auerbach and Br John W. Wade, $12; V urday the police received several’ additional complaints, among them being one of alleged forgery of his brother's name to a note for $100, which amount he is alleged to have col- lected from & merchant who cashed the check for him.

ABOUT ILLEGAL TRACKS, The Commissioners have received another letter from Messrs. Dwyer and Parker, in which they say: “‘It was not our wish to complain of e tracks in the Northeast Washington, but when one from that locality finds it necessary and devolving upon him’ to plead with the Commissioners (to the inconvenience of the ashington and injury to their property) for the maintenance of illegal tracks, we think it proper for us to refer to the tracks in his section, and hope there will be someone in the northeast who will have the courage to continue the fight which we now begin. We will mention this little incident—perhaps you will remembe: Some years ago Mr. J. M. Wheatley, we are informed, applied for a switch; it was refused. He complained and rotested as other permits for similar purposes ad been granted. What was the outcome? Sol. Ludlow, the engineer Commissioner, pre- pared @ general order revoking all permits, ut the order was never enforced—influences were too great, we understand. Mr. Wheatley a it advisable to withdraw his complaint, and the track yet remains, If the order was a necessity under the law, why was it not en- forced?” We suggest that some one interested look up this matter and demand that the order be given new life and see that it is enforced. THE WIDTH OF V STREET. Some days ago Mr. T. W. Huederkoper, in a letter to the Commissioners, requested that V street, west of 35th and Fayette streets, be made full width to conform to other parts of said street. The matter was referred to Capt. Symons, who reports that he thinks it desirable for the property-owners in Burleith that this strect should be opened through to 35th street. There is at present no money ilable for the condemnation of the property if Capt. Symons’ recommendation for the opening up of the roadway between Grant avenue and College street is approved, Besides the land there are improvements in the line of the street, valued at 3600. NC COBBLE STONES BETWEEN THE TRACKS. The Commissioners have issued the follow- ing order: ‘That hereafter all street railways are prohibited from laying cobbie-stone pave- ments between their rails or tracks on any street now paved or ordered to be paved in the District of Columbia. In such cases a Bel- gian block pavement, laid in accordance with the District specitications, is hereby required, but permission to substitute a concrete pave- ment may be granted, at the discretion of tho pany.” BUILDING PERMITS wero issued to-day as follows: Levi Woodbury, one brick dwelling, 11 Iowa circle; = .

Gibson as president of the board and Mr. George M. Anderson secre- tary. The object of the organization is to make the work of the registers more uniform in regard to making out and publishing the lists of voters and other routine business.

The collector of the fourth district and three assessors on Thursday and Friday last met the stockholders of the Washington Grove cam: meeting association at their grounds for the purpose of reassessing the property of the as- sociation, and after the work had been com- pleted the amount of taxable property was found to have increased some $1,000 since the last assessment. The land at Woodmont, a suburban town on the opposite side of the railroad from the camp grounds, recently laid out by Mr. Henry Beard, of Washington, was assessed at $50 per acre. Mr. Nathaniel Benton, of the board of county commissioners, yesterday visited Garrett park, on the line of the Metropolitan Branch rail- road, about four miles from this place, for the purpose of inspecting the stone abutments of the new iron bridge now in course of con- struction over Rock creek at that place. The abutments having passed inspection, as soon as the approaches can be filled in the bridge will be placed in position by the contractors, Work at the park is rapidly progressing, and a large force of laborers is employed in grading and paring the avenues and streets. Several new buildings are also in course of crection.

On the question of rea} economy Hood's Sarsaparilla is so far ahead of other preparations as to place them entirely out of the race as competitors: Here are facts in regard to this popular medicine, easily susceptible of conclusive proof: APARILLA COSTS THE MANU- OOD'S SAI FACTURER MORE than any other competing prepa- ration, because it ismore highly concentrated and con- tains more real medicinal value. 2. IT COSTS THE JOBBER MORE, as a conse- quence of the fact Just stated. IT COSTS THE RETAIL DRUGGISTS MORE, for the same reason—as can be easily learned by in- quiry. Hence the desire of some retailers to sell their own preparations, which cost them less, and for which they get thesame price, thus making more money. But 4.1L COSTS THE CONSUMER LESS than any other medicine, because of its greater concentrated strength, and the quantity in each bottle, and because itis the only preparation of which can truly be said, “100 DOSES ON That the people hown by the fact that Hood's Sarsaparilla has THE LARGEST SALE of any sarsuparilla or blood purifier. It possesses pecu- liar merit and effects wonderful cures, A POINT FOR You. When you buy your spring medicine, you want the best. Ask for Hood's Sarsaparilla, and insist upon hav- ing it. Do not let any argument or persuasion influ- ence you to buy what you do not want, Be sure to get the ideal spring medicine.
