A young gentleman known as Daub at- tempted the role of deceiver for the team | from Brooklyn for seven innings at Na- tional Park yesterday, and to his inability to sucessfully assume the part was due more than to anything else the addition of | @nother game to the column of games won by the Washington club. At the fall of the flag both teams got off well, but before the quarter was reached Esper had shoved the nose of his mount in front. At the haif he had sent his nag out so well that they led by five lengths, and at the three-quarters | had increased the lead to nine lengths. In| the next furlong a change of jockeys was) made, Mercer riding the home team and) Fouts performing the same service for the| visitors. The change was not made, how- | ever, until after the Brooklyn entry had) crawled up within four lengths of the local, entey. The run through the stretch re- sulted in a good race, but the home team, | running easily, passed under the wire four | lengths in front. The game was one of free and heavy hit- | ting on the part of both clubs, three home runs being made. McGuire made one of | them, sending the ball on a line almost to| the extreme northeast corner of the, grounds. It was one of if not the longest| hits ever made on the grounds, and the popular local backstop simply walked in. ‘The Senators jumped into the lead by three runs in the second inning, and they increas- ed that lead in almost every one of the suc- ceeding innings. In the eighth the Brook- lyn representatives got on to Esper in great shape, scoring six runs before Mercer took | his place. The two runs they got in the last inning were presented to them, McGuire re-| fusing to come up behind the bat. In the eighth inning Foutz took Daub's place, do-| ing his first pitching of the season, and, | all things considered, doing it rather well. | r i WASHINGTON. —_ | BROOKLYN. | RH. O. ALE. RH. O.

Robinson said that no club could expect to win against such odds as his club had to face yesterday at Boston. Boston Cutting Down Expenses. The Boston management has determined to cut down expenses as far as possible on the coming western trip. Pitcher Tom Smith has been released. He showed splen- aid promise, and Manager Selee wanted to keep him, but the directors said nay. Catcher Connaughton, who is considered the best catcher of the trio, has been loaned to the Haverhill club of the New England League until his services may be wanted. An offer has been made to Catcher Tenney of Brown, who acquitted himseif so finely last Monday. But thirteen men will be taken on the trip.

Umpire Hurst — sent away at Pittsburg’s request last night. Base Bull Notes. Daub’s delivery was easy for the Senators on the Brooklyns previous trip. Selbach missed a triple in right field that he would have caught ordinarily. The sun Washington and Cincinnati have the two worst right fields of any grounds in the league. The new entrance gate has been neatly painted and lettered. Sidewalks on the road from 7th hp hes bow now — aR Manager Schmelz acted promptly in pu! ing out Esper when he saw he was losing his effectiveness. It always pleases the spectators to see the manager on the alert for the success of his team. The Washingtons should get tenth place before leaving for the west. They will have @ hard time before they return. Radford had twelve chances and accepted eleven of them besides making a triple and @ single. Ward accepted his eight chances and made two hits. MeGuire had four hits. His batting might have won Tuesday's game. Giving Dug- dale due credit for his good work the spec- tators generally thought that it was a mis- tdke to put Mac on the bench. Joyce will return to third today and Has- amaear to the field. This will put that ex- cellent and earnest player, Selbach, on the bench. It’s not often that Charley Abbey has ss many errors as he had yesterday. It’s not likely to oceur again this season. ! Umpire McQuaid certainly gave the vis- | itors the worst of it several times, but then | that’s a fault readily forgiven by the local spectators. ' McQuaid called a strike on Daub which | nearly threw Tom Burns into convuisions, for which a fine was applied which effected an immediate cure. Esper afterward re- marked, “he had a right to kick on that!" Foutz didn't pull Daub out yesterday, for he preferred to save Kennedy, his effective Pitcher, for the New York games. Daub's arm was in bad condition. The Brooklyns did not play in first-class form here this trip. The locals should have won two of the three games. The Bostons today, then the Pittsburgs, then the long trip. They should win 9 of the 18 games in the west. Some of the “fans” are funny. When the home team loses it is either because they were robbed by the umpire or played | to visiting players and pitchers doesn’t oc- cur to them. Amateur Base Ball.

The racing event of the year will be de- cided at the Sheepshead Bay track today. No race has attracted the attention that the Suburban of '4 has since the time that | Salvator showed his heels to a long string of the best thoroughbreds that could be produced. Today's race is probably of greater interest than usual, from the fact that the entries are pretty equally classed, many having a rare good chance to cap- ture the handsome stake, which will amount to nearly $20,000. It is likely that there will be about a dozen starters, but there are not above five that appear to be anywhere near Suburban form. Following are the probable starters: Horses. Jockeys. Betting. Don Alonzo.. Lamley . 8-1} apo . Taral 8-5) Sir Walter. Doggett 3-1) Simms Thompso Martin Blake . Bergen Thorpe . Penn . Banquet A Bow Between Fire Companies Narrowly Averted.

The closing event of the evening | was a cake walk, which was participated | in by Messrs. Murry, Clifford, Pelton and | Stone, and was won by Mr. Pelton, he | being decided upon by the judges as the/ most graceful walker. There was quite a large crowd present and all seemed to be, having an excellent time. Mr. P. H. Sullivan, manager of the tele- | phone exchange, met with a painful,though | it is not thought serious, accident yester- | day, while adjusting an electric fan in the, restaurant of Jacob Borans. 1t seems that | he was regulating some of the scfews,when bis hand slipped and was struck by the rapidly revolving fan, cutting the fore- finger of his right hand badly. The in-| jered finger was dressed by Dr. M. W. O'Brien, who says it will be some days be- fore Mr. Sullivan will be able to use his hand again. | Owing to the scarcity of coal the steamer | T. V. Arrowsmith, which runs between Washington, this city and the lower river landings, has been tied up at her dock in Washington for the past several weeks. Coal has now been secured and she will resume her trips on Saturday. While she | was ted up she received a thorough over- | hauling and now presents a handsome ap- pearance. i Miss Harriett Hollingsberry, a well-known old resident, died ac her late residence, on the corner of Queen and St. Asaph streets, yesterday, after a short illness. She was a daughter of the late John Hollingsberry, who at one time ran a brick yard on the northern end of the city. She was seventy years of age, and her many friends in this eity and elsewhere mourn her loss. } The steamer Occcquan, which broke ner | sheft while coming up the river several days ago, and which was brought t» this city for repairs, left yesterday for the lower | river, the damage Laving been repaired. | The closing exercises of the Episcopal | High School near this city will take! place on the 27th instant in Leggett, Hall, on the school grounds. The school | has had a successful session, and the pros- ects for the future are very bright. Rev. Father Carne, president of St. John’s Academy, has returned to his charge, the Church of the Sacred Heart, in Richmond. Quite a good deal of excitement wa caused near the corner of Royal and Queen | Streets yesterday afternoon by an alterca- tion between Thomas Dix, the driver of the Hydraulion fire engine, and Steven Taylor, | the driver of the Colemvian hose wagon. An alarm of fire had been sounded and both engines responded with their ustal prompt- ness, but as the alarm was sounted from a point only @ square from the engine house of the fydraulion Company, they got there first, and extinguished the fire, which was a@ small one, with a plug stream, not put- tng the engine into service. Just as the | fire was about out, the Columbia wagon, which had some squares to come, drove rap. | idly up, and the driver claims that such was his =peed that ue could nut stop the horse before it ran over the hose of the Hydrau- lon Company, which was still attached to the plug. This seemed to make Driver Dix | mad, and he grabLed hold of the horse and refused to let go. Driver Taylor, in turn, got mad, and struck Dix accoss the face with his whip, inflicting a painful cut. Af- ter this little episode it looked as if there would be a general scrap between the mem- bers of the two cumpantes, but cooler heads intervened and trouble, which might have been serious, was averted. Driver Dix sub- sequenuy swore out a warrant for the a>. rest of Driver Taylor, and the case will be heard tonight at 7 o'clock.

Sport may have another jockey in place of Thompson, and should he run kindly he might surprise eferybody, for he is in great shape.

Lewis, the well- known cozrespondent, at the Riggs House the other night. “I mean that some men achieve the jims, while others have the state of ultra wuzziness thrust upon them. A friend of mine, who also writes burning truths for the edification of an admiring constituency, went out to the mid-winter exposition of San Francisco, while that gay and giddy combination of sweetness and light and freaks and the provisional gov- ernment was doing the shadow dance in the wake of the Chicago fair. He was one of a party of Chicago newspape> men, who had been invited out to see the show, and on the trip to the coast there was, as is usual with bottle and a short shanked glass at the beck and call of each and every man. My friend had never been one of these four- mile heat and repeat boozers, although he Was pretty good when it came to a sprint, and in a smail field for a short distance he was as liable to get a place as any ent:y in the bunch. But, as I remarked, he had nev- er tried a long, steady, swinging gait with John Barleycorn up and riding at weight. Consequently, when he-reached Frisco, after eating 4 sugar-sprinkled railroad bun, to represent ail the meals he should have taken on the trip, his nezves were not as Stationary, so to speak, as the Washington | monument. He took two or three pretty r other they didn’t happen to reach the | right spot, = he left the hotel and strolled | down tne street, thinking the air might do/ him some good. Noticing a pretty large | crowd on a corne: neaf his hostelry, he sauntered toward it to learn the reason of its gathering, and discovered that bulletins from the Corbett-Mitchell prize fight were being received and posted up on a bulletin board. “He took his position in the roadway on | the outskirts of the crowd and was watch- ing the board, when suddenly it moved away from in front of him, and carried the whole building along with it. Instantly he decided that his alcoholic indulgence had | affected his optical powers, but he deter- 1ained to prove this theory to his perfect sausfaction. So he walked back and caught the building and the bulletin board the same spot he had relatively held be- fore the building moved away. He had seureely read the next builetin, which caused the Corbett lovers to yell themselves hoarse, when the buildings and bulletins | moved up the street again. He was abso- lutely dumfounded and pretty near scared to death, so he turned and looked dqwn the street, dé he had been amazed at that bul- letin board ieaving him you can imagine whole street as far as his eye could reach picked itself up and moved out of his line of vision He didn't wait any longer to make further tests. He struck a bee-line for his hotel, and rushed to his room with- out even waiting for the elevator, tore off his clothes, rang the call button and jump- ed into bed. When the boy answered the summons he was sent post haste for a dector, and pretty soon the man of medi- cine ma@e his appearance. My friend told the medico a long story. Indeed, if the stranger had been a Catholic priest and my friend a repentant sinner there couldn’t have been a more full and free confession. He told him all about that trip from Chi- cago, and the various kinds, qualities and Quantities of drink he had taken, as far as he could remember, and then sorrow- fully imparted to the doctor the informa- tion that he believed he was on the verge of the worst case of wiggle-waggles that bad ever contorted a bed post into a Ben. gal tiger, wearing a giraffe’s neck for tail, with @ five-mouthed lion’s head at the end of it, and shaking ail the tin».

Many years ago 2 man named Patrick Dowd lived near Newark with his wife and three children. | wenty-seven years ago he left his family | and nothing further was heard from him until thirteen years afterward, when his wife got a letter from the police audthuri- tes of Louisville stating that her husband had died th<re of yellow fever. The widow Shortly after receiving this intelligence sold out her small holdings and went to England, where she married Thomas Hig- gins. A year or two afterward Higgins | returned with her to New Jersey, and they settled at Lloomfield, where he bought her a house and lot and deeded it to ner. They were a very happy couple, and noth- ing occurr to mar the serenity of their lives until t three weeks ago Mr. Patrick Dowd turned up. His wife recognized bim immediately and fainted dead away. After acquainting Higgins with the relationship he bore to the woman Dowd cooliy told tim to take anything he might own out of the house, because the residence sulted him to a T, and he had come from Montana to renew his acquaintance with his wife. instead of giving up, however, Higgins got a lawyer to protect his interests, and Mrs. Higgins immediately got one, too, and has applied for a divorce from Dowd cn the grounds of desertion, and the suit will shortly be heard. She declares that the only happiness she ever knew was since she married Higgins, and Dowd swears that if she prosecutes the suit he will have her indicted for tigamy, about which the Jer- sey laws, as I understand, are very strict. it appears that Dowd’s children have known of his whereabouts all the time, but kept the knowledge from their mother.” “Washington has the best streets for bi- yeling tn Aynerica,” said R.

Supposing a Rall Were Dropped Into It, Where Would It Stopt From the St. Louls Republic. “W. M. J.,” residing at Richmond, Mo., sends the following peculiar query to the | editor of “Notes for the Curious,” and asks for an answer to it: “If it were posible to drill a hole of a foot or more in diameter entirely through the earth and then to start a ball weighing 100 pounds or more to falling through the same, at what point would it stop?” Answer: Weight, in the sense that “W. J. M.” refers to it, is the measure of attrac- tion of gravitation; or, in other words, it is the measure of force with which a body is attracted by the earth. This attractive force decreases both ways from the sur- face of the earth, both outward into space or downward toward the globe's su molten center. In partial explanation of this assertion I will say that any given size bulk of iron, or any other mineral er ma- terial whatever, will weigh Jess on the top of a high mountain than it will at sea level. In order to be exact in this matter I will say that a mass of 1,000 pounds weight will lose exactly two pounds be- tween tidewater @ the top of a moun- tain four miles high. This, it is plain to be seen, is because the force of the earth's attraction is much less on the mountain top than It is at sea level. Therefore, if a ball be started on the jour- ney outlined in the query sent in by our Richmond friend, its weight would de- crease to a certain extent with every yard of its flight (or fall), until finally, upon reaching the center of the earth, it would have no appreciable weight, the attraction at that it acting equally in every direc- tion. This being true, it is plain that t phenomenon of what we know as ““w: t would be entirely wanting, and the ball would be held in suspension as though im- movably transfixed by numerous magnetic or invisible points. = Their Dog's Questionable Color. From the Minneapolis Tribune. “Keep still, Mamie.

You must be color blind.” “What's the color of the dog?” said the man, with his teeth clenched. put him down brown and white when a little dox—that’s when he was given to me—but he’s kind of dark now.” “That's right, tell the truth. No use in being sentimental over a dog,” said the sister as the martyr wrote across the cer- tificate: | “Ingo, a dog of questionable color.

It is not a matter of association, as in the case of the “shrill equeak ed by the filing of a saw or the drawing of |@ slate pencil down a slate. Dr. Colman | estimates the number of people who possess the faculty of color hearing as under 12 per cent, and mentions a case described by Flournoy, in which the vowel “I” awak- ened the impression of an orange circle with an “1” in black in the center. Theophile Gautier, under the influence of hasheesh, heard the sound equivalents (whatever they may have been) of various colors. The notion is, at all events, of re- spectable antiquity. Dr. Colman cites as believers in color hearing Hoffman, Goethe and Hans Sachs, and refers to the case of St. Catharine of Siena, who had a “bright red color sensation whenever she saw oF thought of the Host.” The Lancet, which comments learredly on Dr. Colman's theo- ries, feels disposed to think that the red r:bbon which adorns the dark-blue bonnet of the female members of the Salvation Army is a parallel case, and not difficult explain on the principles of conven’ metaphor. - } They're going to pieces both the women who wash, and the things that are washed, in theold fashioned way.
