LATE SPORTING NEWS AN EXCITING GAME. It Took Eleven Innings for Browns to Win. Yesterday's game between Washington and Calliope Miller's brown-stockinged young men from St. Louis at National Park was one that caused palpitation of the heart. For eleven innings the result of the contest was very much in doubt, and the three thousand spectators certainly got Get what off?

Not a run was scored fF the glass. until the fifth inning, and then the visitors . 8 ~ | managed to push a man around the bases on errors, and many present thought that practically ended matters, but in the sixth Schmeiz’s men tied the score. The situa- tion remained unchanged until the tenth, | when the loeals went one ahead, to the joy of the assembled multitudes and the dis- comfort of Apollo Miller. Ward hit safely to right, stole second, reached third when | Peitz. dropped Joyce's third strike, and | scored on Abbey’s bunt and marvelous slide ‘to first. It was a very pretty play. | But joy was changed to sorrow in the vis- | itors’ ‘half, for the score was again tied. Washington could do nothing in the elev- enth, but for the Browns big Roger Con- | ner, ‘after fanning the air twice, knocked lone to left for two bags and crossed the plate with the winning run after Quinn’s sacrifice fly on Ely’s hit. It was a mourn- ful crowd that left the grounds. With two out in the fifth inning Tebeau muffed a high fly back of second, but the error was excusable. The ball fell in Rad- ford’s territory, but Tebeau was told to take it, and after a very hard run he man- aged to barely reach the sphere, at the same time risking a collision with Radford, who was almost under the ball. The run- ner scored on two wild pitches by Maul, who later allowed another tally by giving two weak batters bases on balls, Both Clarkson and Maul pitched good ball, and their support for the most part was excellent. The contest was a base ball game in every sense of the word, and the two clubs seem to be evenly matched.

GLYNN DECLARED WINNER. Bateman Declined to Fight Over Fif- teen Rounds. It was a battle royal—that contest be- tween Joe Bateman and Johnny Glynn last night, and the referee awarded the fight to the latter, Bateman insisting upon a de- cision at the end of the fifteenth round, claiming that that was the limit of the fight. As he declined to fight further Glynn was given the decision. It was advertised that the contest would be for fifteen rounds, and there was con- siderable dissatisfaction among those who had money on Bateman that the fight was not decided on the result of that number of rounds. Had it been, Bateman would have obtained the decision, for he forced the fighting from the start and landed twice to his opponent's once. At any rate it would have been no worse than a draw, and such a decision would have been most’ popular. Even as it was the fight will be remem- bered as the most scientific and best all- around glove contest that has tuken place in this vicinity for years. In a tinish fight Glynn would undoubtedly have won. He is Oct. 17, 1803.

Glynn was the first to appear. He was attended by Tony Stannard and McConnell, and looked in the best of condition. He wore rubber shoes and a jockey strap. Bateman fol- lowed, similarly attired. He was in charge of Carter and Edwards. He looked thin and pale. From the beginning of the fight onthe men would epar for an open then come together like two stcam en- gines. In these rushes Bateman would in- variably get the best of it at long range, but when Glynn would close in he worked like a piece of machinery, and hit Bate- man all over. And so it continued for fif- teen rounds, with honors about easy. When the sixteenth round was called Bate- man refused to continue. He stated he had signed articles to fight fifteen rounds for a purse of $250, and that was enough. The referee stated he understood it was to be a finish fight, and forthwith began to count off the ten seconds. But Bateman was obdurate and would not scratch, and Glynn was declared the winner. INDORSED BY THE UNIVERSITY. The Proposed Trip of Yale Athletes to Xngland. = * A Yale Uriversity mass meting last night gave the final approval to the scheme for sending an athletic team to Oxford. There was no opposition to the plan. The Queen’s Club grounds at West Ken- sington have been secured for July 18. The date was changed from the lith on account of the Eicn-Harrow contest on that day. Mr, Sherrill said that the plan was agitated as far back as 1887 by Mr. Cox, who was | | then captain of the team and the invincible | hammer thrower and shot putter. Of all | the branches of athletics this and rowing were the only ones on which the American | college athletes meet the Fnglishmen. In other sports, the rules were so different! | that contests were almost impossible. The speaker was hopeful for Yale. Her athletes stood a good chance in nine events. These, he said, were the hundred-yard dash, the 440, the half-mile, the mile run, the i20-yard dash, the hammer throwing! and shot putting, the running high jump, and the running broad jump. Attention was called to the fact that the financial union, the consolidated manage- ment of the finances of Yale athletics, ap- proved the plan. No desire to debate being evidenced, the vote was put on the plan to! send the team to Oxford and the motion | was carried unanimously. Then there were | cheers for Yale and for Sherrill. The team will sail on the steamer New York on the 20th of this month. These nen re practically sure of going: Poni, v-ho will enter the 100-yards and 440-yards; Woodhull in the half mile; Morgan in. the | mile; Cady in the high hurdle and high | jump; Hickok in tae hammer throwing and shot putting; Sheldon in the broad jump. Alec Brown will also probably go. He is not up to Hjckok in the hammer and shot, but it is thought that he can “do” the En- | glishman whom he will meet. It ts expected that not a small number of graduates and under-graduates of Yale end other colleges will be on the Queen's Club grounds on July 16 ready with cheers for the blue. | Tennis Championships. The eighth annual lawn tennis tourna- ment for the championship of the United States in ladies’ singles and doubles, and | the third annual in mixed doubles will be | held under the joint auspices of the United States Natioral Lawn Tennis Association and the Philadelphia Cricket Club, at Wis- sahicken Heights, beginning today. The tournament will also include an open event in gentlemen's singles. Eights Working at New Londo Heat reigned on the Thames at New London yesterday, and the ambitious col- lege oarsmea, who nervously awaited an | opportunity to limber up, were fcrced to remain housed at their respective quarters until well along in the afternuon. About 5 o'clock the watchers along shore were re- warded by seeing the Yale crew appear and row leisurely over the course. Shortly after the Harvard crew appeared and rowed for an hour. They did not at- tempt (o go fast, however, seeming content to keep a good steady stroke, meanwhile keeping sight of Yale's crew. The Columbia freshmen boat, manned by eight sturdy youngsters, created a very favorable impression by the good work. The various oarsmea are all reported as being In good shape, ard, if today is trifle cooler, some heavy work will doubt- less be performed. An intercollegiate yacht race will either follow or precede the regatta on the 28th, and this matter will be decided on Thurs- day at @ meeting of the representatives of the two colleges. Oxford-Yale Contests. The Oxford-Yale athletic contest has been fixed upon for July 16. Oxford stipulates that all Yale men must conform to the A. A. A. rules and that all competitors must have taken part in the recent Yale-Harvard and Oxford-Cambridge sports. Alexander's Island Races.

The weather at New York yesterday started in to make a record in the heat prostrations. It was ninety degrees in the shade. There were a number of temporary prostrations, where persons were resusci- tated in convenient stores. Yesterday was the hottest June day in Boston for some years. At 2 o'clock yester- day afternoon the thermometer at the United States signal office registered 92 1-2 degrees in the shade. On the hottest day in June last year the thermometer regis- tered 89 3-8 degrees. Baltimore and some thermometers at At- laptic City registered that high. albany beat the record for the east with 92 de- grees. St. Louis and Tcledo carried off the western prize with 04 degrees to their credit, with Cincinnati at v2 degrees. Chi- cago was comparatively comfortable. It reached 88 degrees there. - A Chance for Charity at Hom: To the Editor of The Evening Star: I admire the people of Washington for their most liberal charity to a stranger, and in offering him more places of employment | than he could well accept at any one time. | There are, however, hundreds of people in | our own District who would gladly accept | one of the positions that have been so lib- | erally offered to the non-resident of Wash- ington, and who has a home to go to. I for one would gladly accept any one of the post- tions so kindly offered Mr. Chewning to keep my family from starvation. I have no doubt they have been offered by good, charitable | people, and possibly still remain vacant, as | Mr. Chewning is undecided as to which he will accept. I would be giad to get one to keep mv family from being a charge on the public. UNEMPLOYSD. i ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS|IN HOTEL CORRIDORS. LET THE FLAG FLOAT Soldiers and Firemen Preparing for Short Trips.

Whil at Mount Vernon they were handsomely entertained by the regents, who are in ses~ sion there. The governor and party re- turned to Richmond on the Atlanta special at 5 o'clock. | The lecture of Rev. Father Kenefic at the Lyceum Hall tomorrow night is attract- ing a great @eal of attention, and ticket are very much in demand. He will tak as his subject “Rome.” Father Kenetic, though a young man, has attained quite a reputation as a lecturer, and his lecture tomorrow night will be very interesting. Mr. Jas.

A great number of Alexandrians will go to Hagerstown on Thursday to witness the engine throwing contests. It is said that a number of young men vill in the fall organize a cavalry company } as a part of the third Virginia regiment. There are a number of good horsemen here, and there is no reason why the plan could not be carried out, and a first-class troop organized. The health officer has been making his rounds again today, and several arrests will follow. He reports the city to be in a very good sanitary condition, and with the few exceptional cases every day to be in a very clean and healthy shape. Wm. H. Smith, who was recently re- elected city sergeant, has qualified before the judge of the corporation court. The city officers are busily engaged in closing up their accounts for the fiseal year ending May 31. Raymond Mason, who was so badly hurt on Sunday by pulling a tub of flowers over on himself, is said to be improving.

Humphrey, the Philadelphia dentist, at Wormley'’s last night. “The animal was in great agony, and when I proceeded to examine his mouth he appear- ed to realize that it was my purpose to re- lieve him, and he submitted to my admin- istrations with calmness that was almost human. I discovered a cavity in one of the back teeth, which was also badly ul- cerated at the root. I temporarily relieved the pain and next morning went to see him again. He gave every evidence of pleasure at my approach, and I concluded that I would attempt to fill the tooth in- stead of removing it. I proceeded to carry out my plan, and when I was cutting away the diseased portions of the tooth the horse | flinched no more than a man would have done under the same circumstances. I filled the tooth with a cement composition, and the animal nad no more trouble with its mouth. A French dentist, Prof. Valadon, has recently accomplished a still more re- markabie feat in treating animals. His pa- tient was an elephant named Liga, which had been suffering the tortures of the damned for a long time. Prof. Valadon dis- covered that by some means Liga had scraped away the ivory and dental pulp from a portion of one of his molar teeth and decay had set in on a spot the size of a silver quarter. The professor made use of his largest excavating instruments and cut a hole three inches into the diseased tooth. The cavity was filled with a wad of cotton saturated with iodoform, and each morning it was removed and a fresh wad put in its place. This treatment was continued for two months, until the nerve of the tooth was killed, and then the cavity was filled with composition and covered with a tin cylinder. It was first intended to fill Liga’s teeth with gold, but as it would have cost $300 the cheaper form of plugging wi adopted, Liga gave himself as willingly the treatment as the horse did in my own case, and I believe it will be generally found that where any animal is suffering from intense pain of any sort that it will readily and willingly give its confidence to any one whom it believes intends to re- lieve its anguish.” “I suppose you would like to know how to keep cool these hot days,” said a well- known newspaper man at the Ebbitt last night. “Well, I have an unfailing recipe which can be guarantesd to effect the de- sired result. I use it myself, and know the system is a specific for the woes which man- kind suffers in such dog-days weather as we are now experiencing. It is simple and easy—don't eat any meat uniil the sun goes down. I have made this an inviolable rule during hot weather, and as a consequence I am never bothered about or by the condi- | tion of the atmosphere, no matter how high the thermometer may soar. This morning for my breakfast I ate a piece of strawberry | shortcake and drank a cup of coffee, For luncheon I partook of some lettuce and temato;salad and a cup of tea.

I was led to adopt this system from observing the immunity from ering on account of the heat which the workmen in hot countries enjoy. This was particularly the case in Spain and Italy, | snd when I inquired the reason, I was told that a Spanish or Italian workman would ‘rather eat kerosene with a wick im it than meat of any kind during the hot weather. I am not a vegetarian in any sense of the word, but I have proven to my own satis- faction that a diet such as I have suggest- ed during the summer will preserve any one who follows it from suffering in hot weath- “The question of superiority between anthracite and bituminous coal for use on shipboard has received fresh interest by reksoh of the wonderful trial trip of the new. War vessel Minneapolis, on which the latest cruiser from the Cramps’ yard won |the: right to carry the broom at her mast- head,” said Heary A. Kerr of Pittsburg ai he Arlington this morning. “Anthracite coal was used, as you know, on the Minne- apolls, and while it gave heat enough to make her break the warship record of speed, there are some experts who believe that she will be able to increase her speed two knots an hour when bituminous coul is used. I hardly think that such expectations will be realized, however, Indeed, I believe that where the funnels are given full sweep and | a steady air blast is kept playing upon the tire boxes, anthracite coal will give results as efficacious as those attained by the use of bituminous coal, when everything is tak- en into consideration. Anyhow, the diffe: ence In favor of soft coal in making speed under ordinary mstances will be so slight that reased cleanliness and comfort on board ship resulting from the use of hard coal would counterbalance it entirely.” “The statement published in the north that the people of Florida were contemplat- ing the election of Hamilton Dissten of Philadelphia as a United States Senator, in order to substantially show the apprecia- tion of what he has done for the state, has been the inspiration of much amusement dewn in Florida itself,” said Oliver Merril of Orlando at the Riggs House this morn- ing. “Florida has not yet reached that Utopian stage of existence as a common- wealth when the sentimental burst of a few gushing and overwrought people can effect the regular working of the cogs of its pillitiont qmachinery, The fact is that no- vody jm Plorida ever had an idea of making MrubDisston a United Siates Senator or any- thing else but, of course, his enterprise is as vhoroughly recognized by the people of mg state as it is substantially rewarded by the results he has attained. The land com- panies operating under Mr. Disston’s super- vision have reclaimed thousands upon thou- sands of acres of alluvial bottom lands, and their share of such reclaimed territory has amply repaid them for the capital expended. Within the past few weeks all the Disston interests in Florida have been combined un- der one general company, known as the Disston Land Company. The reorganized concern recently mortgaged 2,000,000 acres to the Columbia Avenue Saving Fund Safe Deposit and Trust Company of Philadelphia for $2,000,000, and this new capital will be veed for developing sugar, rice and fruit lands, You know Mr. Disston gets one-half of the land that he reclaims, the state get- ting the remainder, and he has some very big projects in view, the most important of which {§ the reclamation of thousands of acres of the richest land in the world lying Fish Eating creek, which will be ac- hed by building huge dikes to pre- vent the regular overflow of the territory in question. Oh, yes, Disston has done a great deal for Fiorida, but not more so than Mr. Flagler, the standard oil magnate, vnd I believe that if Florida politicians would so far forget their own ambition as to give away a United States senatorship in a burst of gratitude, Flagler would stand a better chance of getting it than Mr. Diss- ton. send 10 (in Cy ly spel Ciation, No. 663 Main Street, Bumtalo, N.Y.

General Display of the Glorious Col- ors by All Citizens of All Classes is Desired. From pf@sent appearances Washington will be dressed in the gayest of holiday at- tire on Thursday in recognition of the an- niversary of the adoption of the stars and stripes as the flag of the United States. For some time past the Sons of the Revo- lution and othe: patriotic societies have been exerting themselves to secure an ob- servance of the occasion commensurate with its high importance, and indications are that their efforts will be crowned with unqualified success. Mr. Chas. L. Gurley, secretary of the Society of the District of Columbia, Sons of the Revolution, yester- day addressed a letter to Superintendent Powell of the public schools, calling his at- tention to the anniversary, and suggesting a proper celebration by all patriotic peo- ple. Exeellent Suggestions. “We have invited all other patriotic so- cleties to join with us a display of the flag on Thursdey next,” wrote Mr. Gurley. “We are also endeavoring to create an in- terest in the matter through the press by calling upon all citizens to display the col- ors from their residences. Will you kindly assist our endeavors by giving such in- structions as will insure the flag being placed upon every school building, and. so far as in your power lies, have the matter called to the attention of all the teachers in the schools, that the thoughts of the children may be properly called to the flag of our nation and some lessons be gained of @ patriotic characte>? Without presum- ing to suggest any other. special feature we think that it would be a pretty idea if each boy and girl on Thursday morning would provide themselves with a small flag, wearing it to and from the school.” Supe tendent Powell Coincides. Upon receipt of Mr. Guriey’s commulnica- tion Superintendent Powell immediately ad- dressed a letter to each of the supervisors of the several schools, requesting them to carry out the suggestions of the Sons of the Revolution as far as it was possible. ‘The supervisors in turn instructed the teachers to acquaint their scholars with the nature of the day and the pretty way in which ft might be celebrated by wear- ing the flags to and from school, and the consequence is that the pupils in the Wash- ington public schools are in a state of de- lightfui excitement over the chance that will be afforded them on Thursday to show | their enthusiastic patriotism. Will Rival Inauguration Day. Many of the merchants and large num- hers of citizens have signified their inten- | tion of displaying the national colors all day from their places of business and their | private residences, and if all these promises of waving bunting day after tomorrow as {ever it was on the sunniest of inaugural | days. The Sons of the Revolution are nat- urally very much gratified over the out- look, and the responses that have been | made to their efforts have spurred them to | behalf of the day’s celebration among their friends and acquaintances with commend- ‘able energy. ———.
