Quite a number of young gentlemen, at- tired in very dark biue suits and caps, gorgeously trimmed with bright red braid, in imitation of play soldiers, with “Cincinnati” in red letters across their breasts and wear- ing red stockings, made a decidedly pictur- esque appearance yesterday afternoon at Nationa] Park, chasing leather and fielding balls for the members of the Washington Base Ball Club to bat. On close inspection the kaleidoscope was recognized as the per- petual articulating Arlie Latham and -his band of so-called base ball players consti- tuting the Cincinnati club. Manager Comis- key, also far-famed for his conversational powers, was in evidence, but did not play because of an injury received to his hand in @ recent Baltimore game. Mr. Albert Maul, he of the pleasing smile, tossed $1.50 balls over the plate for the gen- tlemen from the Ohio town to strike at, bo they seldom connected. Manager Schmelz's Remarkables, however, apparently had no difficulty in subduing the curved talk of an elongated individual who, according to the score card, bears the name of Parrott,which cognomen, by the way, furnished consider- able amusement throughout the game for Ward on the coach lines. ‘The game, the result of which occasioned a visible darkening of the blue of the visit- ors’ uniforms, was a beautiful fielding exhi- bition. Four times did the locals double the players on the Cincinnati team and thereby probably prevented the scoring of additional runs. In the ninth Joyce and Abbey were retired very prettily because of erroneous base running. Morgan Murphy, with his left leg in plaster, to protect the injury in- flicted by Elmer Smith of the Pittsburgs, was behind the bat for Comiskey’s men, but he could not throw to bases a little bit. The only error marked against Washington was a fumble by Abbey of a bounding single to left, on which the runner took second. Cin- einnatl went one better, Latham and Murphy making the misplays. Cartwright drove one into far left fleld aor a home run, and Abbey also did good stick work, making two singles and a double. Cincinnati scored twice in the first and once again in the fourth, but that was all they could accomplish in the way of runs. Washington made three in the second, one each in the fourth and fifth, two in*the sixth and one in the ninth. Bug Holliday was responsible for the only clownish ac- tions of the contest, and in that respect he was as successful a jumping jack. Over 3,100 persons were in attendance. ‘The score: WASHINGTON, 1 CINCINNATT, RH. ° Hamnocowe” > Hnomocuoch encocommol™ ‘ye at ft eurnSenoue mr BHomowe Canavan, ss Murphy,’ ¢.

Wes- tervelt and Terry received such punishment during the early portion of the contest that Meekin and Griffin were substituted. The batting of “your uncle” Anson was the fea- ture of the game, Meekin deliberately send- ing him to first on balls in the ninth in- ning for fear he would tie the score. The batteries were Westervelt, Meekin and Far- rell, Terry, Griffith and Shriver.

After a Brief Professional Career Marries Her Manager. Miss Alice May Hammack, daughter of Mrs. Rose ack of 1716 N street, and late leading of the Linthicum Students of this place, was married on Wednesday last, in Jersey City, to Le Grand White of |New York, a theatrical manager. White last season represented James K. Hackett's “Private Secretary” Company, which ap- peared at the Academy of Music. Near the close of the company’s engagement there the young lady, who assumed the soubrette part of Eva, resigned for the purpose of getting married. A vacancy was thereby created. The manager, while in search of a successer, happened to light upon “Zeff” of the National Theater. “Zeff,” on February 3, had witnessed at his theater the presen- tation of the comedietta “Twenty Minutes Under an Umbrella,” with Miss Hammack as Cousin Kate and Mr. Cousin Fran the retary.” The suggestion was acted ~ pr & rehearsal followed, and then result- an balance of the season.

Services were held in St. Aloysius Church last evening, and when benediction was said, the congregation left the building and went to their homes. But there was one man in the congregation who did not leave, and the presence of burgier alarms in the church was the cause of bis being arrested later In the night. This man kad undoubtedly remained im the caurch afier the services, and about 10:30 o'clock, when it was natural for him to presume that he could move about without fear of detection, he made his way toward the altar where the portable valuables are to be found. There he managed to touch a bur- giar alarm, which aroused the sleeping inmates of the parsonage and resulted in calling in the police. Fathers Gillespie and Dolan went out in search of an officer, and they soon found Policemen Brady and MoNamee, who went with them to the church, entering from the Tear door, which leads to the parsonage. ‘There was no one in sight when the oifi- cers entered, nor did any one respond to their calls, but a search of the church re- Sulted in their finding a man under cre of the pews. He had removed his coat ana shoes and had the appearnce of a man who had settled himself for the it. ‘This, however, the officers think was done for the purpose of making them believe he was not @ burgiar. The man was roughly Greased and he said his name wat James Kelly. He gave his age as forty years. It is thought by the police that he be- lorgs in Baltimore and officers from the mcnumental city will come over &o see him. Naval Orders.
