Business and Central Teams P! Pretty Game. The prettiest that has taken place in the inter-High School championship series was played yesterday at National Park by the Central and business teams. The game was of the see-saw variety, and the root- ers back of each school took advantage of every opportunity to wake up the people residing within a radius of several miles of the~base ball park. The game was brought to a cicse inthe eighth inning with the score 10 to 7 in the Central's favor. The Business team started off well, and in the third inning secured a lead, but the Centrals began their fine work at that time and pulled the game-ou: of the fire in fine shape. The game was interesting frem the excellent individual playing that was done. Shuster, short stop of the Cen- tral team, gave as good an exhibition of all-around piaying a3 is usually seen in a base ball game. Out of five times up ne cred two bases: on.Qalls, made three hits and scored four runs. Besides this he play- ed his position perfectly, and stole seven bases.

The Pittsburg Chronicle-Teiegraph’s base ball extra of last evening says: A love feast among Senators Wagner, Robb and McKin- ley started at the entrance of the grand stand directly after) yesterday’s game. It was still in progress at the Monongahela House reading room at noon. The fruits of victory were so rare end sweet that the participants were imbibing every drop. Col. McKinley is an attorney. When Cousin Bill was only a congressman the colonel had to plead at the bar, but since he is in the White House all the colonel has to do is travel with a ball club and murder time. The Senators’ success yesterday was one of those “oasises,” as Jake Beckley would say. Col. Wagner did have one kick to tally. It was against local scorers. He thought Charley Abbey should have been given a base hit on his slow one to first base, which was chatked down as a sixth columner to Dick Padden. In addition he figured it out that Gene Demont and Char- ley Retlly were error makers in the sixth inning. Waguer once relieved of his tale of woe fell into discussing base ball in general Somebody spoke of “Scrappy” Joyce's row- (y tactics, doing just to New York's pa- tronage exactly what the rough way dowa on the lots lingo of Tebeau and O'Connor had done to Cleveland’s attendance—ruined it. This opened up an argument on “Scrap- py.” Karle declined to say anything ham- mer-like against Joyce, but told of a deal seeing pa, ma and her. Winnie reported this‘a.m. His fellow-townsmen will not iike it to be known that Winnie registered from ‘Washi D. Mercef": , B.C. personality and attire is = much unlike a ball player as “Doggy” Miller is typical. The big hitters who are picking out Places 2s leading batsmen at the end of the season should not overlook DeMontreville. Contrary to many predictions, the brilliant young Senator is hitting the ball from the jump, and in the first fourteen games had an average of .431. Donovan admitted that the Senators played the hit and run game and other rieat styles of run-getting yesterday, and this made the Pirates’ play look all the slower. GONZAGA COLLEGE NINE. Manager Ryder Has Given It a Shake- Up—Good Results Expected. There has been considerable shifting about of, players in the Gonzaga College base ball nine owing to thé streak of ill luck that has lately pursued the team. Manager Ryder, '99, deemed it proper to make a change. The team will now be ex- pected to win a majority of the games played. Quite a number of games are yet to take place before the college year closes. They include games with the B. and O., Eastern, Western and Central High Schvol teams, and the alumni of Georgetown and Catholic University. The management has obtained the services of a well-known local batter:—Hunt, ’92, and Quinn, ‘92. These two have played with the Gonzagas in ‘2, and have returned to collage. The college will now be represented with the following players: Pitchers, Newbeck, 1900; Duffy, "98; Moll, 1900; Quinn, 1900; catchers, ee ch short stop, Curran, ‘ Shea, 1900; second base, Lansdale, "99; third base, Eline, 08: fielders, Hurley, Farrell, 1900; Grace, 1902; substitutes, Plant, 1900; Woller, "99. Mr. Coughlin, °98, will be the official um- pire for Gonzaga. The Gonzaga College team played the Reserves Wednesday afternoon on the col- lege campus, defeating them by 6 to 5. The game abounded in pretty and interesting plays. The college boys played a neat airt close game, but were weak at the bat. The features of the game were the battery work of Hunt and Quinn, the college's fa- mous battery, and the stick work of Corri- gan of the Reserves. Mr. Cousshlan held the indicator and umpired a fair game. stetter, " Gossip of the Game. A large crowd gathered around the bul- letin board in front of The Star office last evening and, of course, were disappointed over the score. Mercer is down to pitch today and Tannehill will probably go in for the Pirates. Better news may come over the wires this evening. Tomorrow's Washington-Cleveland gam? at Cleveland promises to furnish lots of excitement for the players as well as the spectators. The chief of police says the zame shall not come off and President Robison of the Cleveland club maintains that the contest will be pulled off without any trouble. And there you are. Some of tne Baltimcre players are ac- cused of working for records, but the team wins just the same. According to the Baltimore Herald Tim Hurst assessed nearly enough fines in the second game at Washington to pay the in- terest on the national debt . No matter how hard Lyons of the Pit! burgs is hit with a pitched ball he tosses his bat aside and trots down to first with- out any indication of pain. The usual gymnastics cut no figure with him. “The team, just as it is today, can beat Baltimore three out of five games,” says Tebeau. ‘“‘We can show the Orioles a few tricks this year that even Ned Hanlon never taught them. Young Taylor, the pitcher Connie Mack picked up while barnstorming in Ohio for Milwaukee, was substituted for Rettger in Monday’s game and saved the game. Kan- sas City could not touch his speed. Joe Sullivan's return will strengthen the Browns materially. No matter what posi- tion he plays his hitting will ‘e_very wel- come. If he will only set a little faster base running pace his presence on the team will be particularly appreciated. And Dick Cooley was not good enough for the Browns. Three hits, three runs and a double play, with seven outs and an assist was his record Monda! How these fellows do play ball when they get away from St. Louis.—St. Louis Star. For years it has been customary to put “0. 's” all over the declaration that Philadelphia is the best base ball town in the country, but the spectacle at the West Side grounds last Sunday gives Chicago a right to file an amendment. Says the Cleveland World: Sox is unques- tionably the greatest hitter Cleveland has ever had from a slugging standpoint. He belongs in the same class of batters as Delehanty, La Joie, Beckley, Joyce and Stenzel. An admirable feature of the In- dian’s batting is, like Delehanty, he hits en ball equally hard to all parts of the eld. Ely of the Pittsburgs makes plays which could not be duplicated by any other short- stop in the league. He slipped while reach- ing for a grounder, and, while sitting in the mud, threw the ball over his shoulder, catching the runner at first. Ely’s strong point is that the closer the score the more likely he is to do something sensational in_the fielding line. The Sunday base ball war in Cleveland is an interesting study of how the character of a city can be changed by the newcomers. Ten years ago the sentiment of the city was such that Sunday base ball would have died with the mention of it. Within that period Cleveland’s New England colony has been greatly outnumbered by foreigners, and the Sunday sentiment has as steadily grown. Cincinnati has Sunday base ball games be- cause the Germans are for them almost to @ man. In Cleveland it is a mixture of Germans, Slavs, Poles, Bohemians and other Americanized nationalities. Perry Werden of the Louisvilles is aspir- ing to shine as a hit-by-the-pitcher player. In a recent interview on the subject he id: “Hit? Why, of course, I like to get hit. Every time you get touched with the which is a wonder. Here it is: “Pittsburg had a dead-arm third baseman. His name was Farrell. Washington had a pitcher named Killen, who wanted to get away. Washington gave this man Killen, who wanted to get away, to Pittsburg for the dead-arm third baseman and ‘4,500. A year later Washington sold this dead-arm man to New York for $7,500. Two years latec Washington gave one, Joyce, to New York for the dead-arm man and $2,000. Result to Washington club $11,500 in cash and the dead-arm man, and he threw out six Orioles at second on Tuesday.

If New York had played here Sunday instead of St. Louis and had acted like they did yesterday, it is pretty safe to say that President Freedman would now be looking for promising young players, and he would also be chief mourner at half a dozen funerals.—Louisville Courier Journal. Says the Philadelphia Inquirer: “What makes the action of the Cincinnati club in keeping Corcoran out in the cold the more reprehensible is the fact that he ts not at all necessary to the success of the team. According to the papers of Porkopolis it is doubtful if the Reds could find use for Cor- coran even if he were to accede to the club’s demands, in view of the splendid work of Ritchey. If this be true, it is dif- ficult to perceive on what ground Corcoran is kept under the ban.
