This was the rule in all of the Atlantic Association cities, so that the teams of that organization stand just where they did before. Jersey City is billed for to- morrow and it is to be hoped that the weather will hold off long enough to let the people here see the Land Spaniards play ball, The other games scheduled for tomorrow are: Worccester at Baltimore: New Haven at Newark; Hartford at Wilmington, IN OTHER ASSOCIATIONS, There were four games played yesterday. One of these was in Boston, between the Bean- eatersand the Giants of the league. In the seventh inning the score was tied by Boston. 2 to 2. anda wrangle ensued between Welch | and Umpire McDermott, in which the smiling pitcher came off second best. He was fined twice, 350 each time, and finally he refused to play any longer, the ons being given to Bos- ton, 9to0. On the brotherhood grounds in Boston the home team won from kiyn, 7 to 3. In Buffalo the ex-Senators won hands down from Cleveland, 18 to 15, making it four straight and holding the head of the players’ league, The only association game played was in St. Louis agaiust Toledo, the Browns win- ning by the score of 6 to 5, SPLASHES FROM THE PARK. Jersey City and Worcester play here next week. Billy Wise is to be givena trial in the box for Washington, Lyston, the young Baltimorean, who pitched so well in one of the exhibition games, will be given a chance to show what he can do against a professional tem, Boston leads the National ue and New York [owe the other end. Buffalo and Cleve- land hold the corresponding positions in the brotherhood, while the leaders in the American and Atlantic Associations are somewhat numer- ous, Athletics, Columbus, Louisville aud Roch- ester in the former and Newark, Worcester and Hartford in the latter, The team goes away from home the latter = of next week for a short trip, playing at ilmington and Newark, They then return home and play the same clubs here before gomne off on the first long trip, which begins lay 20 at New Haven, The rumors of the transfer of the Buffalo Brotherhood Club to this city have been re- vived. The story is the same as that which was started some time ago, when the status of the Washington team was in doubt, to the effect that certain capitalists are ready to advance the necessary money to bring the club here and play it at Capitol Park in opposition to Hewitt's Atlantic Association team. A dispatch setting forth this information in the Philadelphia In- quirer this morning says: “The Washington Club of the Atlantic Association ig a strong one collectively, and bids fair to hold a place among the leaders, but our citizens having been accustomed to witness first-class attrac- tions, do not enthuse over the newclub. The attendance since the opening game which was strictly a complimentary ticket crowd, has been very small.” This is not strictly true. There is consider- able enthusiasm here about the team of colts and the crowds have been larger than they were at Capitol Park, Of the 3,500 spectators present onthe opening day about 500 were there on complimentary tickets and since that the turn- stiles have registered over 1,000 each day, Grocers, ATTENTION!

Buffalo must agree with the late Washing- ton players, as their slugging in the last few games was very heavy, something they rarely did while with the Senators,—Philadelphia Times. In this view it might be a mistake to bring the team back here. The Hartford Courant gives the following in- teresting summary of the three games played bere by the team from that city: The three games played between the Hart- fords and Washingtons were marked by large scores and hard hitting. ‘The Hartfords aggre- ieee 36 runs and the Washingtons 34.

The Washington pitchers sent 24 men on balls and hit6 more. Moore had 3 d balls, and the Washington catchers 5, while the Washington twirlers made 2 wild pitches, This made an aggregate of 31 battery errors for Hartford and 37 for Washington.

A meeting of the Union of State Republican Aulantic Park, for the spectators are compelled to sit and listen to a perfect din of unmeaning yells whenever a man is on the bases. ‘Tne necessity of proper coaching of a runner is acknowledged, but when three or four men are yelling out at once in the most senseless man- ner simply for the purpose of rattling the bat- tery the desired object is not gained. Capt, Irwin could coach his men without a word and it wae a pleasure to watch him lying in the grass and signalling to advantage. If the umpires of the Atlantic Association will put a stop to so much loud talk the change will be refreshing. — Another Athletic Entertainment.

Waller, secretary of the British Wesleyan conference, who comes to this country as fraternal delegate to the gen- eral conference of the M.E. Church South, was introduced and made an address. Dr. James H. A. Johnson, presiding elder of the Washing- ton district, responded in behalf of the confer- ence. A communication from some of the ministers of the conference living in Washington was read, It made complaint that African Method- ism in this city was not what it was fifteen years ago, and that the members of the race wasted 4 great deal of precious time in playing cards and attending hops. The signers of the commu- nication asked that the bishops visit the churches oftener. They say the district in which Washington is needs educated pastors and not educated fools, and that jealousy among the ministers is an adder in the bosom of the church. J. W. Norris and J. H. Collett were appointed to consider the propriety of establishing a book depository. Two Wives Want Divorces. Ida E.

The first business meeting in the new house was held inthe gymnasium and was largely attended. Mr. Howard Perry, the secretary, of the club, representing the building committee, formally turned the building over to the club. President {. T.

Purity and wholesomeness in food compounds are of the utmost importance ; in these qualities Cleveland's excels all other baking powders. All the ingredients are published on the label, and this analysis is verified by Official Reports and Government and State Chemists. Strength in a baking powder means economy. The Official Reports of the United States Government, 1889, _ Canadian Government, 188 9, New Jersey Commission, 1889, and Ohio Food Commission, 1887, prove that Cleveland's is the strongest tartar baking powders. of all the pure* cream of Perfection in results is what housekeepers desire.

The surplice choirs of St. Paul’s, St, John’s, St. John's Chapel and St. Mark’s and St. John's Church, Georgetown, were conwolidated and rendered most excellent music, Rev. Drs. Al- fred Harding, J. M. E. McKee, Jacob A. Reg- ester and A. Floridas Steele were seated in chancel and took part in the ceremonies of the evening. The annual report, which was sub- mitted and read. referred to the calling of Dr. Leonard to the episcopacy and of the work he had done in this city. The report treated at some length the work done by the league in this city and stated that in the last year 25,098.28 had been expended, Dr. Regester made a brief address, in which he urged that the field of usefulness of the league be still further extended, ae Aun Old Soldier Drowned.
