There were 2,500 or 3,000 persons present and the crowd ‘was noisy and enthusiastic as the fate of the Orioles became more certain. The batteries were Carsey and McGuire and Cunningham | and Townsend. But seven innings were played | te count, as the rain began to fall in the eighth | inning, when the Statesmen were in the act of scoring rapidly, five runs having been piled up when Umpire Jones called game. HOW THE SCORES WERE MADE. In the first inning Hatfield sent a ball along the left line for a couple of bases and crossed the plate when Dunlap sent one out to center for a triple. In the second half Van Haltren hit for three bases and scored on Wise’s bunt, and & sacrifice, an error by Carsey and a long fly | hit sent Samuel over the rubber. In the sec- | ond Washington made by McGuire, who | hit the ball so hard t buried itself ‘in a brush heap in the left field and could not be | found until after the runner had crossed the plate. The visitors scored one and took back the lead. Werden went to first on balls, to third on Townsend's single hit and home on a sacrifice by Cunningham. The third was un- | productive for either side. In the fourth Wash- ington took the lead by making two rans. Davis, who played third in Smalley’s place, went to first on balls and MeQuery hit to left for a base. Pitcher Cunningham tried to catch McQuery off his base and succeeded all except that the runner went to second safely while Davis reached third. Carsey hit out to. center for one base and both men scored. Baltimore made one in the latter half and tied the score. A hit by Johnson, followed by two sacrifice hits and a single by Townsend, were the elements of the tally. IN THE FIFTH | the Statesmen got aclean lead of one. Beecher went to first on balls and stole second. Visner sacrificed and Townsend dropped the throw of Hines’ infield tap. In the sixth McQuery and McGuire reached first on balls, and score couple of wild pitches anda sacrafice by Car- sey. It wasa close call fora tie this inning. Johnson and Gilbert made a siugle apiece and Werden lifted a tall one out to center that looked safe until Paul Hines got it squarely into his hands and heldit there. So sure was John- son that the ball was safe that he was nearly in when Hines threw to second and put him out. Townsend struck out and the side was retired without a run. In the seventh Baltimore made one on a base on balls, two sacrifices and « wild piteh. When the game was called in the cighth Washington had scored five runs on some hot hitting coupled with some bad fielding on the part of Baltimore. Washington, altogether, made seven hits and two errors and Baltimore eight hits and two errors. OTHER SATURDAY GAMES. At Boston—Boston 6, Athletic 3. At Columbus—Columbus 3, Cincinnati 2.

Mrs. Annie Besant, one of the most famous of all apostles of modern reforms, reached this city from New York Saturday afternoon. She is stopping at the Riggs House while in the city. Saturday evening this disciple of Madame Blavatsky was tendered a reception by Mrs. George Leonard, at 2103 O street. There were a large number of guests,including many well- known people, and a most enjoyable evening wasspent. Mrs. Besant was attended on her trip over from New York and at the reception by Mrs. Meresheimer, whose guest she is in that city, and by Mr. Judge, president of the Theosophical Society. Dennison Hal! was more than crowded last night to hear Mr. William Judge, the general secretary of Society,and Mrs. Annie Besant discourse on theosophical topics. ‘Mr. Judge was introduced by Mr. Savage,the president of the Blavatsky . and spoke at some length on “Theosophy, What It Was and What It Was Not.” He talked at some length on the theory and benefits of theosophy. It was, he said, a religion of tolerance and unsel- fishness, and one which would abolish the cause of sin and most of the misery. At the conclusion of Mr. Judge's remarks Mr. Savage introduced Mrs. Besant, bea most interesting and entertaining speaker. She spoke partly in defense and partly in justi- fication of her cause. Hor address was a recital of the good to be accomplished by her belief. It taught one to look upon the lower classes not with a shudder and horror, but with a feclit that every man and woman had asonl, and they were bound by chains of vice it was all the | more the duty of the others and the more en- lightened to break these fetters. She talked at length of the interest that is being taken in theosophy, which, she said, though spreading rapidly every day, is still by no means as prac- tical as it should be. Mra. Besant close: talk with an earnest defense of Madame Blavat- sky, the high priest of the faith she herself has espoused. ———— Father Mathew Total Abstinence Society. ‘The Father Mathew Total Abstinence Society last night elected officers as follows: Spiritual director, Rev.

Mr. Simon Wolf fell off a platform at his new office building on F street last Saturday after- noon and was painfully though not dangerously injured, fracturing a rib and wrenching the muscles of his back. He is likely to be kept to his house for ten days. psa as The Seengerbund’s Concert. The Washington Sengerbund gave a sacred concert last night at the Academy of Music in commemoration of the fortieth anniversary of the organization. It was highly successful and well attended. The music produced under the direction of Mr. Wm. Waldecker was of a high order and seemed thoroughly appreciated by the audience. One of the numbers was quite picturesque, being descriptive, under the title of “Niederwaldfabrt.” of a trip to the Neider- wald, near Bingen, where is a monument dedi- cated to the unification of Germany. The varied arrangement, including nearly every known form of vocalism, was heightened in its effect by the appearance of Miss Lutz as Ger- mania in the act of crowning the monument. “Hail Columbia” was rendered in somewhat the same style, with Miss Annie Muchleisen as America.

The horse became frightened and ran away on Whitney avenue, throwing both of them out of the buggy and they were each injured, but so slightly that they were able to return to their home by street cars. Last night a horse attached to a buggy on the Bladensburg road ran away, throwing both of the occupants out and one’ was seriously in- lured. They were taken to their homes in densburg. poe SEGRE Mr. Atkinson's Kallroad “We.” To the Editor of The Evening Star: It seems to me that you have not scored the most offensive part of Atkinson's declarations. The Congress of this great government has taken from the quarter of a million citizens of the capital every vestige of political rights and assumes to be the guardians of the citizens, leaving the people entirely at the merey of the railroads except as protected by Congress. ‘The lower house of Congress constitutes Mr. Atkinson a member of the committee to pro- tect the wards of Congress from oppression ofall kinds. Mr. Atkinson was as much bound to carefully protect the interests of the people of the District as the guardian appointed by fhe court is to care for the interests of minor irs. Yet he says that when he found that the people would not accept what was offered by the Baltimore and Potomac railroad that he then went into the fight to win all that he could. Mr. Atkinson stands alone as the onl: member of Congress that has ever acknowl- edged that as icgisiator he joined one of the arties before Congress to rob another, and in Eiscase to harm hisown ward. ‘Itte certainly very unenviable position.

The members of the Columbia Athletic Club had a royal good time last Saturday night. It was the occasion of the second smokers’ con- cert and the program, which was arranged by Mr. Fred Thompson, abounded with pleasant surprises, the greatest, perhaps,in the introduc- tion of Mr. Wm. Pruette, the well-known o singer. Mr. Pruette sang several songs and re- ceived the generous applause of those present. His last song-—"“Charity"—was given with 8 great of expression an roved a Taeans of hearing him at his beet. Mr. George F.

The navy yard feform inaugurated by Secre- tary Tracy will undoubtedly reach the Wash- ington gun factory before it is worked out to iteconclusion. The force here is very well se- in good working order and there is really little or no necessity for the establish- ment of reform methods and examinations. But in order to complete the circle in the new scheme this force must be put through the mill at some time during the summer. The method will be the same as that adopted for reforming the New York and Norfolk yards, that is, a discharge of all foremen and master mechanics in the yard ona certain day and a competitive examination for the places thus vacated, to which the former incumbents will be allowed to come.

Interesting confirmation services were held in four Epi iscopal churches of the city yester- day. Bishop Paret officiated and delivered ad- dresses to the classes of confirmants. At the 11 o'clock service a class of thirty persons was confirmed at Trinity Church. In the afternoon the bishop confirmed a class of fifteen at St. Mark’s Church and at 5 o'clock a class of forty- eight at Epiphany Church. In the evening the bishop attended services at Ascension Church and confirmed a class of thirty-five persons. In the course of his sermon he referred to the impoverished condition of churches in St. Mary's, Pr ince George's and Charles counties, Md.” He said that he had received a donation of money from the congregation of Ascension Church, which would be utilized in oJ Andrew's Church at Leonardtown an ning St. $600 had also been donated by citizens of this city, which is now bei ug used for the relief of other churches in the counties mentioned.
