ENGLISH BAT WELL! sa Opening the International Cricket Match at Oxford. Sd SKY OVERCAST | AND WIND FRESH , | other he trap Washingtons Meet the Clevelands Again Today. CURRENT SPORTING NOTI OXFORD, England, June 7.—The Ameri- can cricket team faced an eleven of the Oxford University cricket club here to- day. The sky was overcast and a fresh wind was blowing and’ there was only a thin fringe of spectators when play was begun at noon, but the wicket was in good condition. Cunliffe and Hartley of the Oxford team are considered the two best amateur bowl- ers in England. Bardswell, captain of the Oxfords, was unable jo play because of a sprained thumb. Christ Church College cricket ground, on which the match was played, was the only ground where gate money can be charged here, and the present match is the only one of the season of 1897 where the university dons will allow money to be taken. The Americans were generally expected to win and to subsequently defeat the Cambridge University eleven, but it is not believed they will be equally successful in their matches with the county elevens, and regret is expressed that the program does not faclude a match with an all-Eng- land eleven. Biddle and one or two other members of the American team have not yet fully re- covered from the effects of their voyage across the Atlantic, but all the visitors are quite confident that they will give a good account of themselves. Oxford won the toss and Champain and Bamson faced King and Bailey's bowling. The runs came slowly and at 12:30 p.m. Bamson was bowled by King, the first wicket falling for thirteen runs. Brom- ley-Martin succeeded Bamson. The Philadelphians then gave an exhibi- tion of very pretty fielding, and when 31 runs had been scored P. H. Clark succeed- ed Bailey as the second bowler of the visit- ing team. The bowling of the Americans was at first quite difficult for the university men, but later the Oxford batsmen began to get on to the American bowling, and when Ox- ford’s score had been run up to 62, George 8. Patterson, the American captain, re- placed P. H. Clark as bowler. Oxford, at that time, was begianing to reach the boundary rather freely, and the fielding of the Americans was a little loose. King bowled well throughout the early portions of the first innings, but Patterson, at the start, was somewhat wild, a full pitch from him to leg-side being promptly Lit to the boundary. Cregar followed Patterson as bowler at 1:25 p.m., when the university men had compiled 80 runs. Soon afterward Pat- terson missed an easy catch from Chap- man. Play was continued with not much in- cident, the attack of the Philadelphians not improving to any great degree. Cre- gar, however, revived the hopes of the Philadelphians at 98 by clean bowling Bromley-Martin. R. E. Foster succeeded Bromley-Martin, with Cregar and King still bowling for the Philadelphians. ‘The staying power of King, who is the best fast bowler of the Philadelphians, excited much favorable comment. However, in spite of the fine cf- forts of the American bowlers, the score of the Oxonians steadily rose, until Champain was put out by a fine catch of R. W. Ral- ston, jr., at the wicket, off Bal‘ey’s bowling. A. Eccles succeeded Champain at tho bat, and the Oxford pair added fourteen runs to the score, when, at 2 o'clock, there was an interval for luncheon. Today's Schedule and Weather.

LOCALS PLAYED POORLY. ‘Tom Tucker and Sockalexis Were the Attraction Saturday. The game Saturday between the Senators and Spiders was of the kind that makes the spectators yell murdef and look around for a club. With e start of 4 to 1 in Wash- ington’s favor and an opposing pitcher who was being hit hard and often, dumpy work on thesbases and almost baby errors threw away the game by the score of 10 to 5. It seems almost an impossibility to get the team to pull together. If one player puts up @ good game one day he will fall down the next, and vice versa. No one doubts for a moment that the entire team is anx- ious to win, but the persistency with which this remarkable reversal of form comes to the is almost past understanding. ‘ker, Farrell, Brown and Reilly worked ike Trojans with the youngsters on the W team, but all to no | . A good would be made, missing which would ue and then an easy chance would be thrown away, and runs would result.

Reilly injured, was hit rely in the head by an inshoot, and = fully five minutes ‘the inner wi ngs of his brain would resume operations. Even atter pulling himself. to- gether enough to go on the bases, he had to retire on account of the continued dizzi- ness. Curly-headed Mercer was on third, and on a bluif by Zimmer to throw to first he started to come home. Zimmer turned to catch him at third. In trying to ward off the ball with his right shoulder, Merser looked back and caught the ball, swift from the catcher’s hand, full in the side of the face. The ball went out into left field and Mercer and Brown came home. All the spectators expected to Mercer quit the game, and McJames w nt out to warm up, but he stuck it out until the eighth in- ning, when he no doubt was sickened by his support, and let German finish the game.

A Team of Loenl Pinyers Meets the Cleveland Njne. An exhibition game of base tall played at Riverside Park yesterday be- tween the Clevelands and a picked nine captained by Harry Mace. The park is about two miles below Alexandria, on the electric line. About 500 people journeyed frém Washington and Alexandria and were rewarded Ly seeing a fairly well-played game, but too one-sided to be interesting. As was to be expected, the Clevelands watked away with the game from the start, winning out by a score of 12 to 1. The Riversides put up a good game in the field, their inability to hit’ McAllister accounting for the club only getting one run over the rubber. It was the first game of professional ball in this vicinity on Sunday sinze the Wash- was ington club played at the Driving Park near St. Asaph Junction in 1890. Base Ball Notes. The Clevelands and Washingtons play again today, weather permitting. McJames will probably be in the box for the Senators | and Cuppy or Young for the Spiders. Ed. Cartwright was given an uncondi- tional release by Mr. Wagner Saturday afternoon and is now on the market. Ed can jump into elther the Eastern or West- er leagues at once, but is dickering with a National League club and may sign today. Al. Selbach was out at the grounds Sat- urday and is almost himself again. The strong medicine in his system will keep him out of the game for a day or two yet, and as he had a narrow escape from ty- phoid fever, it will not do for him to take chances. Selbach will be heartily wel- comed back into the game by the local en- thuslasts. G Signaling from the bench ts not handi- capping. the Washington club. There are certain players on the“team that have to be told what to dg, and if it were not for the instructions given them they would be dead men. No signais come from the bench except in one instance, and that is on the play at second When there is a run- ner on first and third, ahd then the instruc- tions are only for the runner to either sac- rifice himself to scbre the run or to do his best to make second. McAleer played one game and was im- mediately charley-hors¢d. Isn't it time to unwrap the spice cloth¢ from McGarr and set him up?—Cleve}and! World. The St. Louisans, who ‘speak of Chris’ Coochie Coochies 28 “our” Browns, should be shot on the spot, Manager Tebeau’had’ sent for Pitchers Pappatau and Powell t) join the team at Washington.

Reach, Rogers and article 13 of the na- tional agreement seem to conflict. The lat- ter forbids the former farming out their players after the beginning of the cham- pionship season, but the Quaker city mag- nates ferm their players out without the least consideration for base ball law. It is pretty hard to have two games post- poned by rain, but there is consolation in the fact that the Cincinnatis got out of Baltimore in far better shape than the Bal- timores got our of Cincinnati. At the last writing all the Reds were present and counted for, and only one game was drop- ped in the monumental city, while the Bal- timores let three fall by the wavside in Cincinnati, and went out of town with their captain on crutches.—Cincinnati Ex- change. The Australian ball players were inter- ested spectators of the opening game of the series between the Colts and Orioles. It was the first time they had ever seen their adcpted game played by National League teams. As Kelley and Jennings were or- dered from the field for constant wrangling and kicking at Umpire Hurst’s decisions, the foreigners had an opportunity to see the worst as well as the best feature of the American pastime. The Boston Traveler has the following to say of Tucker in a recent issue: Now, as a lover of the game, I would like to ask if you don’t think Mr. Selee has show- ed poor judgment in taking Tucker off of first and playing Tenney in that position? While we all admit his skill as a bail play- er, he has no license with Tucker in chat position, and I think your readers will with m2 that as an earnest, con- scienticus player Tucker is the peer of any first baseman in the league today. As to his batting, he did not do a thing to the Fall in the first same with the Phillies, and it was his bat that saved the Bostons a shut out in Baltimcre. Tucker is very sen- sitive, and to do himself justice you mu: let him understand that the manager has perfect confidence in his ability. When the Phillies won their first game from Chicago, afier meetiag with ten straight defeats, a well-known member of. the Pliladeiphia stock exchange, who !s a decided crank on the subject of base ball, won the neat little sum of $2,650 on the game, and pulled himself out of a hole. It has been his custom during the season to make a bet of $5 with a feilow broker on nearly every game. When the Philllies struck that disastrous losing streak he succeeded in doubling his bet every day. He was enabled to do this owing to the fact that the exchange boasts any number of base ball enthusiasts. On the tenth straight defeat he was out just H0, the amount to which that original little $5 bet had grown. It took some tall hustling that day to secure takers for this amount, but he stuck to it, and finally got his money up on a quantity of individual bets. It tcok nerve, but he won out, and now he says he is through with the Phillies forever.

Chief Clerk Sylvester of the police de- partment, who is also game warden for the District, received a call Saturday af- iernoon from a prominent citizen, resident of the county, who anted permission to sparrows with a parior rifle. he said, had ruined the appear- ance house, and he was extremely anxious to get rid of them. If given per- mission to use the rifle, he promised to be careful and would give a guarantee that he would do no harm other than to the birds. “They are a nuisance,” he said, want to get rid of them the worst When he lived in the west, he explained, he was annoyed in the same way, and he hired a boy to throw stones at them and beat them out of the vines and bushes. ‘The result was that the birds left his i although a I sparrows had left there, he Uluebirds aud jays returned, and they were then appreciated more than ever. the law to kill sparrows, and sion to kill them for scientific onty could be given. for scientitic purpose: declared en. t is to stop the annoyance and e my life. The birds make so much noise that it is almost impossibie to S| p, and I think, therefore, that a per- nit based on scientitic purpeses might be given. Mr. Sylvester sympathized with the vic- lim of the sparrows and told him that there is a Ifill pending before Congress. which is intended te remove the protection from ‘he sparrows. He realized the trouble the birds are giving to so many people, ind said he was serry he could not his way clear to issue the permit. A general discussion of the manner in which to get rid of the birds followed, and it was said that oats soaked in whisky or corn meal mixed with an intoxicant would be eaten by the birds, and they would be- come so intoxicated that they would fall the same as an intoxicated man. Then it would be an easy matter to put an end to them. Sparrows, it is said, are as palata-} ble as reed birds, and are usually just as fat, and the removal of the protection they have under the law will mean that they will be served on toast in the local res- tuarants, and used in potpies in homes.
