Z LAVIGNE STILL CHAMPION Yesterday's game between the Boston and Washington clubs at National Park was exciting all through, but the bird of victory refused to alight on either club, the score standing 3 to 3 at the end of the 10th in- ning, when Umpire Hurst called the game on account of darkness. Tom Brown did not win yesterday's geme, but he did the next best thing in making it a tie, owing to his brillant work on the bases in the 7th inning. Brown sent @ nice one to Tenney at first, and, as usual, when Tom has a ghost of a chance, he beat out the hit by about a foot. Then the hit-and-run game was worked perfectly. Brown had started to steal second and woul have made it when Reilly dumpea an infield hit and the captain continued on to third, Reilly making first. Then Brown played off of third a little too much, it ap- Pearel to Ganzell, and the Boston catcher threw to Collins to catch him. This was evidently what Tom wanted, for he started for the plate almost as soon as the ball left the catcher’s hand, and, although Col- lins made a good return, the fieet-footed sprinter tied the score by abcut 4 hair's length. The enthusiastic cheering that fol- lowed demonstrated that the spectators ap- preciated the heady work of the Senators’ leader. Outside of the incident noted above, the Playing of McGuire and O’Brien, and, in fact, the entire team was of the very best, and had a little stici work been indulged in by them a victory would have been assured. When a catcher can nail a base runner oi the reputation cf Billy Hamilton, as Mc > Gvire did yesterday, his work must be ot the best, especially when backing up a Pitcher that allows the runner to get the start that Hamilton did yesterday. O’Brien at second had eight chances, some of them very difficult, and he coppered them all without turning a hair. When O’Brien gets his eye on the ball what a jewel he will be. McJames started off well, as the Senator- jal twirler, being lucky enough to strike out several hard hitters and keeping the Bostons from scoring for the first four in- nings, but the work back of him was of the cleanest cut order, as a record of nine men left on bases for the visitors will demon- strate. In the fifth it looked as though Jimmy was due for the bench from the way the singles and a triple rang off the bats cf the Geaneaters, and when the dust had settled down around the base lines. it was ascertained that three singh, a triple and a sacrifice had brought in three runs and placed the visitors one run ty the good. The fielders’ gaed work in this in- ning was appreciated by the spectators, as had an error slipped ity there is no telling how many tallies would have been scored, but they scooped in everything with the coolness of veterans, is inning Dr. McJames was all right, his work with men on bases be- ing particularly good. Sullivan did the twirling for the Roston team and did it well, but six hits being made off his delivery, two being secured by DeMontreville. Th@ play back of Sul- livan was of the most discouraging nature, but he kept at his work in a cool, matter- of-fact way that won him lots of vra from the New England conting2nt present. Umpire Hurst acted the part of erbitra- tor in a satisfactory manner, his decision in -the ninth being close and could have gome either way without being called a but the spectators were-on their feet with excitement and waated every- thing in sight.

Few wheelmen are metal- lurgical experts. Outside of such—no one but the manufacturer knows what material goes into the wheel he makes. 1897 particularly has been a red letter year for the maker of “poor stuff” Bicycles. The color epidemic that has stricken the bicycle build- ers—has been their godsend. Heavy coats of gaudy enamel—or any enamel — are proper and right when covering right and proper material. Using enamel this way is wrong—actually criminal—when it cloaks faulty steel and mechanical faults — hiding what ought to stand the light of day—and the examination of mechanical experts. Full many a neck—risking casting and stamping, hides its power for evil, beneath an admir- ed color. Sound and Honest in | Victor nickel and enamel Take Victor all to pieces—and the wearing and important parts will all be found Victor Bicycles are built honestly — rightly. cover nothing that the makers are ashamed to have the public see. a eee nena of crucible steel—the costliest and safest metal for bicycles, use, known to man- kind. The proof of this is not merely on paper or dependent on the — sales- men’s skill in logic—but in the different parts exposed for secing, examining, inspecting. Come in and see a Victor.
