Miss Josephine Patten, the president of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Washington Golf Club, recently presented a handsome cup to be contested for by the members of the organization, and the match to decide its fair possessor is now in progress over the links on Arlington Heights. There are seventeen entries in the match, which is a handicap of eighteen holes, and the players showed remarkable skill in the opening plays, which began yesterday. The games resulted as follows: Miss Lockett defeated Miss Kate Brice, Miss Wetmore won from Miss Elsa McKeever, Miss Fannic Board- man from Miss Josephine Boardman, Mrs. Henry May from Miss Hurst, Miss Wood- ward from Miss Jackson, Miss Helen Mc- Keever from Mrs. Blair Lee, Miss Mabel Boardman from Miss Hoy, Miss Kate Batcheller from Miss Worthington. The game between Mrs. Henry May and Miss Hurst was particularly exciting. They finished the eighteen holes even, and in playing the extra hole Mrs. May won by a skillful stroke. The match is being con- cluded today, the players being as follows: Miss Wetmore against Miss Simpkins, who drew a bye in the contest drawing; the winner wiil play Miss Fannie Boardman; Mrs. May against Miss Woodward, Miss Mabel Boardman against Miss Batcheller and Miss Lockett against Miss Helen Mc- Keever. Mr. J. W. Lockett has been chosen treas- urer and Mr. Edward F. Riggs secretary of the Washington Golf Club. Choynski Challenges Fitzsimmons, SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., April 22.—Upon learning that Fitzsimmons had reconsider- ed his decision to retire frum the ring, “Parson Davies” forwarded to Al.

PREPARING FOR THE “OPENING Warming Up is Over and Now Real Work Begins. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES League Games Today. Brooklyn at Washington. New York at Philadelphia, Boston at Baltimore. Chicago at Cincinnatt. Cleveland at Louisville, Pittsburg at St. Louis, Manager Schmelz had the full strength of the Washington club out this morning on the diamond at National Park for the last practice before the opening of the season of ‘97. The players took turns at bunting the ball tcward first and third, and several were strengthening their wina by runs around the outfield. After a light luncheon the Senators assembled at Na- ticpal Park and about 1:30, after donning their new white and black uniforms, seat- ed themselves in carriages, and, precedea by a band on a tally-ho,came down town for a short parade of the principal streets. The Brooklyn club was picked up at the Ebbitt House and given the right of way in the procession, After the drive around the clubs returned to the park for practice. At 4:30 the gong will sound and the season of ‘97 will be on. It was not known this morning whether President McKinley would toss the bail Pitcher King. into the diamond for the commencement of the game, but word was received that the chief executive would at least see part of the contest. The ‘‘President’s box” on top the stand was put in order for the dis- tinguished visitor. Scme 800 tickets were sold at the grounds this morning, and several hundred at Scan- Icn’s, the down-town agency, and the in- dications were that a _ record-breaking cercwd would be present at the grounds this afternoon, The Visitors. Mercer will do the twirling for the heme club this afternoon and Payne, the left-handed pitcher, will go in the box for the visitors. The Brooklyn team this season will present several new faces, and all the critics agree that the new players will give strength to the team. ‘“Ger- many” Smith, the sensational and relia- ble short stop of last year’s Cincinnati team, will be found playing that position for the “grooms” instead of “Tommy” Corcoran, and Jimmy Canavan will be at second base instead of the old Washington catcher, Tom Daly. Outside of these changes the team will be the same as last year, with the exception that Lachance will be back on first base instead of Ander- son, and the latter will be found in his ld ition in left field. eareneee Wiliiam Barnie, who was the Washington manager for a short time in 1892, the first year the Messrs. Wagner had control of the Washington club, is now holding the reins over the Brooklyn team, and it is expected that his experience and ability as a manager will land the team in @ good position in the championship race. Manager Burnie has hosts of friends here. The Batting Order. The batting order of the teams will prob- ably be about as follows: Brooklyn. Washington, Jones, r.f. Lush, r.f. Anderson, Lf. DeMontreville, 8.8. Griffin, c.f. Selbach, 1.f. Lachance, 1b. McGuire, c. Smith, s.s. ‘O’Brien, 2b. Canavan, 2b. Cartwright, 1b. Shindle, 3b. Brown, c.f. Grim, c. Reilly, 3b. Payne, p. Mercer, p. Today inaugurates the sixth season of the National League and American Asso- clation. The majority of the teams will take the field today in far better shape than they have ever been before since the formation of ‘the big league. In fact, every team, with the possible exception of St. Louis, will show an improvement over last year's form. One or more new faces will be seen in nearly every club, which proves that the managers and owners have not been idle since the close of last season. They realize that their patrons want the best article of ball playing that can be had for love or money, and to satisfy them the megnates must keep on improving wherever possible. Arrangements have been made to take care of bicycles during the games. Ex- Groundkeeper Charley West has fitted up @ place right opposite the entrance to the park, wherein can be checked several hun- dred wheels, and Mr. Strasberger, who pos- sesses the score card and refreshment privileges in the park, has made ample pro- vision inside the grounds. PRELIMINARY SEASON ENDED. The Local Professionals Defeated the Catholic University Boys. . Yesterday’s game between the Washing- ton and Catholic Untvecsity clubs wound up the preliminary season of the home club and left its record clean, as it won by 21 to 4. There was a great shifting of the Sena- tors when it was seen that the university boys were putting up a ragged game, and tweive of the former got their names on the score card before the contest was finished. The college boys were all right on fielding easy chances, but when a difficult cne came their way it generally got away from them, and as a consequence their error column makes a good showing, as these chances, of course, had to go down as hits. Reagan started in to pitch, but was slow in fielding his position, ani the playing back of him was enough to discourage a veteran. Swaim pitched three inniags for the Sen- ators, and Ashe finished out the game, the hits made off of tho iatter being of the lucky order. The base ot 2 the fashington beys was symething out of the order, as they managed to iter fifteen fiifered bags, higics Sey their quick work.

THREE FAVORITES WON. COLLEGE BASE BALL. Georgetown University Defeated Again by the Baltimores. The game between Georgetown snd Bal- timore yesterday at Bal; re was an in- teresting exhibition. Georgetown team showed up in improved $form :n ‘he field apd batted with customary vim. In the second inning the coll-gians stole bases, hit with the runner and bunted :tice pro- fessionals. Reardon dis:inguished himself in left field by making two difficult catches that were sensational in their nature. He also led his team at the bat, making three hits out of four times up. The all-around work of Maloney and McCarthy was also fine, while McIntyre put up a splendid game at third. Bach and Clancy pitched, the latter being effective in the four in- nings in which he officiated. ‘The Baltimore Sun says of the George- town team: “The ‘varsity boys played good ball fiom start to finish and demonstrated the fact that there is some fine material in the club, which only lacks practice and more good coaching, such as Kelley's, to make the team formidabie.” The Orioles put up a good game, both at the bat and in the field, although less gin- ger and enthusiasm was shown than in some recent practice games. The Crowd Sent Home Happy From Bennt: Three favorites, a second choice and an outsider made up the winners at the Ben- ning track yesterday, and again the crowd, which was about the largest of the meet- ing, went home in a happy frame of mind. The card ‘called for five races on the fiat, the only stake event being the Mount Ver- non, for two-year-old fillies and geldings at half a mile. It was won by C. D. Mc- Coy’s Lady Ashley, a vrown filly by Pat- ton out of Sallie M., as goo] es 10 and 12 to 1 being obtainable on her at times. The other starters were Juda,Choir Boy, Money Spinner and Ella Daly, and they finished in that order, the second horse being a 3 to 10 zavorite, with her stable companion, Money Spinner. There was 6 to 1 against Choir Boy anu 40 agains: Ella Daly. Juda led until within the last elghth, when Powers i.ok the winner to the front, win- ning a good race by nearly half a length, the time being 50 4-5. Three started in the first race, Passover, Billali and Sonnet. Billalt was made an almost prohibitive favorite, but Passover it him ¢aslly by a length, there being fifteen or more between him and Sonnet. In the third race, at six furlongs, for mai- den three-year-olds, Loch Glyn, the 4 to 5 favorite, won easily by more than a length, Charentus, at 10, and Bob Leech, at 30, showing. The favorite, Torstenson, at 8 to 5, won the fourth race, for maiden two-year-olds, at four and one-half fur- lorgs, beating Ma Petite, at 2, by a neck. Elleen D., at 40, just managed to outlast Wild Duck, at 2. Verna J., Nettie Cox, Gun Metel and Thirty were the other starters. Doggett won the last race at a mile by three lengths from Counsellor Howe, Emotional being a length and a half back, a neck in front of Flames. The winner was at 1 to 3. The program for today calls for five races, the fourth being a hurdle event at one and three-quarter miles over seven hurdles.

Although the score, 13 to 3, indi- cates one-sidedness, the game was replete with interesting features. Lauer's batting was the feaiure of the game. Brown, the intercollegiate champion team, and Providence, the champion team of the ern League, met yesterday, and the professionals won: 8 to 2. Providence bat- ted out a victory in the first three innings. The Princeton team continued its victor- fous career by defeating the University of North Carolina yesterday.
