Harry Wright's Philadelphia lawyers went back to the hotel wearing ear muffs yes terday. In other words it was a cold day for them. Tho way those really excellent players cavorted atound the diamond, hurliag the ball frantically into space ina vain attempt to cap- ture the Senatorial sprinters, must haye caused the heart of that good man to bleed. It is no wonder that when it was all over he had to wrap a carriage blanket aboi Person. Meanwhile all was joy and sunshine for one side of the house. The Senators had the floor with & vengeance, and proceeded to hold it’ with an executive session to which no one from the city of brotherly love was admitted. Thirty-one hundred shivering, chattering cranks rejoiced at the sight, without single regretful thought of cold dinners. It was meat and drink for them to see a Washing- ton nine climbing up to the £0 per cent mari thus early in the season. Wild dreams of cham- pionslup bunting dazzled the eyes of the more imaginative and they were brought back to real life only by the strident cry of “Peanuts and cigurs! And this is how it was done: Dowd opened the second with a sharp rap that landed him safe on first. Weyhing, erratic twirler of the visitors, gave Killen, his rival, a base on balla. Then Radford tried to bore # hole thro’ the accommodating Mr. Weyhing. Wey hing merely laughed and shot the ball into Mulvey on third, putting out Dowd. Now was the time for that two-bagger were knew Hoy had concealed about him. Weyhing bra himself for another cannon shot, but merely a tantaliz: ty little bunt rolled off Ho: bat, and Weyhing got so mixed up with this and his feet that Hoy reached first in safety and the runners advanced a base. Capt. Richardson, who then went to bat, knew he wasn't there merely to look pretty He picked a long fly from the bargain counter and sent it out to Mr. Reilly im center, The fly was accepted, but Killen scored, ‘The visitors put up such astiff article of ball that the Senators got only one man beyond first after that up to the seventh inning. Then Radford reinstated himself as a al: idol by driving the bail sharply, into lett Held. Amoment later he set sail for second and through his lucky stars reached port. The bull sent down to bead him off was thrown low. Cross tried to catch it with one hand to tou Radford at the same time. The combination wouldn't work and Paul climbed out of the dust and confusion proud possessor of the Hoy tried to dazzle, or rather razzle-dazz Weyhing again with a bunt, bat this time Gus had his measure and Willie died at first, Mean- while Paul had clutched third. Capt. Danny remembering that Col Reilly out in center had a weakness for his good: gave him some more of the same kind. Seely turned the ball to the plate with neatness and dispateh, but Radford had already eraw: under Ciements and brought his run with him. The “Comedy of Errors” was enacted in the eighth, Mr. Shakespeare missed a treat by not being present. Our own Hardie was stage He drove one of his daisy cutters, ‘h the “big four” have a monopoly, straight at Short-stop Allen. That gentleman contrived to stop it, but he danced a cachuca in trying to field it, and when he finally did grasp the ball he flung it with the abandon of despair at Connor's feet. Connor doesn't wear fives, but on the other head bis feet are not a Chinese wali, and the ball sped away toward the “‘quarte rstretch” and Hardie made huge strides for second. ‘Milligan popped up a fly to Weyhing. Hardie ventured a little too far from his city of refage and Weyhing then threw to second to head off. He threw as badly as Allen had done a few moments before, and as the ball darted merrily out to the outskirts Hardie lunged toward third. “Farmer” Thompson tried to head off old associate, but whether recol- lections of the past overcame him or_ his arm developed a crystal Le threw wide and the ball banged up against the third base seats. A moment later and Duffee’s grounder to Allen landed Hardie athome. In the next inning Hoy produced that two-bagger, but no one else had any loose hits to spare and he got no further. The visitors made their only ran in the Connor smashed a wicked liner at Radford. Itwent so high that Paul couldn't stop it. ‘Then Thompson drove an equally vicious one at Capt. Dan. It took quick handing. Dan stopped it and shot it to Radford at second, but it got away from Paul. Then a sacritice hit by Reilly to Dowd and s sacrifice fly, Allen to Hardie Kichardson, brought Connor ‘across the plate. Hardie’s arm is not in a No. 1 order yet or he might have kept Connor from scoring. After this until the ninth the visitors couldn't hit Kilien’s delivery. A rally was attempted in the ninth, and cold as it was colder shivers ran down the spinal column of the crowd to Reilly open with a single and Allen follow it with another. Duffee, however, fielded the ball to Dowd with such a remarkably accurate throw that Reilly was caught five fect from third. This took all the heart out of Wright men, and the next two batsmen easily weut out, smoRT ITs, Killen pitched a great game. ‘Milligan threw well to second. Mulvey caught a hot liner from Duffee’s bat that every one thought safe, Radford’s muff was the only costly error. Dowd ran from third nearly up to the grand stand and captured a foul. Larkiuaud Dan Kichardson were the only ones who didn’t hit safely. All three runs were seored by sacrifice hits, Killen’s daisy cutter over second shows that he can bit. Hoy mustn't keep his good things in the shape of two-baggers bottled up so long. Independence Hall is hung with crape to- ¥- Hardie Richardson is covering lots of terri- tor: ir.

If this rule had been enforced yesterday Washington would have had another run to itseredit. In the ninth, with one man out, Kadford popped up a high fly back of third, Of course every- body thought Mulvey would catch it, Everybody bad a right to think so but Radiord, whose business was to run. But he only trotted to first, and when the ball bounded from Muivey’s hands into the field, Smaps was Cer fon He sub- jnently tried to steal sec ut was exsily thrown out.

Some of the Best and Some of the Worst in the Word. SENATOR M'MILLAY GIVES THE RESULTS OF HIB PERSONAL EXPLORATIONS ALONG THE COUNTRY ROADS—HE SATs THEY ARE BADLY CONSTRUCTED AND SHOULD BE MADE OF BETTER MATERIAL “Did it ever occur to you that there are in the District of Columbia some of the best paved strocts in this country, perhaps in the world?” Tne Stam reporter to whom Senator McMillan addressed the inquiry admitted that some such idea had struck him. “Did it ever occur to you,” continued the Senator, ‘that there are no worse roads any- where than those within the District limits?” Without waiting for a reply the Senator went on: SoME OF THE Viteer BiGHWATS. “Some of the vilest highways I bave ever had any experience with are adjacent to this beautiful city—here where everything should be as a model for the rest of the country. For some time past I have been investigating local roads, and the result of my explorations is by no means complimentury to those who are responsible for the construction and maintenance of the great driveways. Along these arterics dows @ great stream of country commerce; sluggishly, perhups, because the con- ditions are ail adverse to speed. On ed Icrossed from the Bladensburg road to 7ti street and succeeded only because I had an ad- mirable team of horses, Again and again have Tfound Lincoln avenue in a most disgraceful condition, particularly that portion of it which lies between the city and Glenwood cemetery. THE ROAD TO ARLINGTON. “On Sunday I had occasion to drive over to Arlington, and there similar conditions pre- vailed. Responsibility for that road rests in the War Department. I understand, but bad as the highway is, for much of the distance from the bride to Fort Myer it is better than many of the roads which are under the supposititious care of the District authorities, But, in spite of its superiority, hundreds of people were compelled to walk through the woods because travel on the strangely constructe? road was painfully laborious and unreasonably slow. In one place I sawa light wagon #0 firmly stuck that a muscular and willing horse could not move it. After along spell of dry weather I presume the way would be passably good. but it is not enough that it be fit for travel only under circumstances which would make any road tolerable; it should be in first- class condition all the year round. THE TRAVEL NEXT SEPTEMBER. “During next September hundreds of thou- sands of people will visit historic Arlington. Should the meteorological conditions be propi- tious the visitors may go and return with com- parative comfort, but if there chauces to be a shower then the pilgrimage to Arlington will Ue anything bute pleasant memory to an im- mense number of strangers, Something should be done, and done soon. WHY THEY ARE POOR. “Why are the roads so poor? Because they are not constructed properly. It is not given toevery man to know how aroad should be built Road making is scicntific something towhich many of the best minds have been applied. It fhorosenly understood in Eu- rope. ‘There the people learned long ago the value of solid highways, which can be used all varieties of weather. Here the alleged road mender duinps a cart load of clayey earth into a depression, flattens it out with « shovel and imagines his duty done. “The construction and repairing of roads should be controlied by a mau who thoroughly understunds the business. It is my purpose to interest myself in an endeavor to provide the District with roads of the best possible type. Washington is rapidly becoming the model city, but it will be far short of anything like an ideal center of population unless good hard limestone macadam is substituted for the pres- ent mud streaks.” A SUCCESSFUL OPENING. Although Only Two Favorites Won, Yet ‘There Was Good Sport at Benning. As stated in yesterday's Stan. the spring meeting of the Washington Jockey Club was quite a success, Asarule the races were welt contested, and although but two favorite Morello and Futurity, won, nevertheless the other winners were well backed and the crowd therefore left the track well satisfied with the day's sport.

Of the supporting com- pany it may be said that none was unequal to bis part. The Joseph of Mr. Carl Ahrendt was au unctuous and shrewd production, and the De Mauprat of Walter Matthews a some- what too vigorous impersonation of the ambi- tious youth and the impetuous lover; but youth and love are not tame, and overdoing is rathor to be expected and oxcused than underdoing.
