ES Lonisville....°11 47 1190 Jimmy McJames was the bright partic- ular star in a brilliant constellation in the afternoon game yesterday at Chicago, be- tween the Colts and the Senators, the doc- tor holding the hard-hitting Waite Legs down to three hits, while the remainder of the Senatorirl aggregation fielded faultless- ly, the score being 4 to 0 in favor of Wash- ington. Nearly 10,000 spectators passed through the turnstiles, and although the home team lost, they enjoyed the superv exhibition furnished by the visitors. The lately recalled farm hand, Danny Friend, was on the rubber for the Chica- g08 and was found rather easy,especially by the left-handed batsmen, O'Brien getting three hits and Abbey a Umely single. The feature of the game from a batting stand- point was the three-baser by McJames. Jimmy made one of his mighty swipes at the ball, and to the surprise of everypody met it fair and square on the end of the bat. Away sailed the ball to center, and although it was quickly fielded, the doctor was on third when the ball came ha into the infield. A humorous thing in connec- tion with the hit was the fact that Ji: my Was rather stunned by the unexne:ted good fortune of hitting the ball and for a second or two stood still in his tracks at the home plate. The Senators then on the bench left off a migaty yell and Jimmy arted on sprint around the ba: The Senators secured their first rurs in the third inning, a palr being registered to their credit. O’Brien hit to right ror two bases and came home when McJames mede his al hit to center for three loctor then crossed the plate followed with a single. In the fourth the third run came, owing to a sharp trick of McGuire. Jim’ singled to center and went to second on Abbey's single to right. O'Brien then hit a pop fly to Callahan at and was out. With the play over Umpire O'Day ttrned his back and walked toward the plate. Calla- han tossed the bali toward MeCormi>k,who Was on second with McGuire, bui the jatter caught it with one hand and threw it into left tield, sprinting home as the ball rolled toward the left field seats. Abbey was caught at third trying to follow McGuire. Anson made a great kick, but as O'D had his back turned and didn't see the play he refused to take ihe word of the Chica- captain, and the run went down to Washington's credit. In the ninth the Senators got their fourth and last run. Abbey hit to Callahan at second, but the latter threw wild to first and the Senator kept on to second. O'Brien then singled to center and Abbey scored. son was the last man up in the ninth ww for the Chicagos, end Dr. MeJumes concluded the game in @ sznsatlonai man- ner by striking out the grand old man.

CRIED MURDER, An Early Morning Hack Ride Was Interrupted, After more than twenty-four hours of incessant noise and turmoil all was peace- ful and quiet at 2 o'clock this morning in the vicinity of 15th street and Pennsyl- vania avenue.

When they are good they are very good, and when they are bad they are horrid. Think of Jim McGuire pulling of a trick successfully! Jim will be joining tie Orioles next. Only one point separates the Senators and Chicagoes. The Senators drop out of sight today and tomorrow, playing exhibition games at Al- bion, Mich., today, and at Jackson, Mich., tomorrow. Jim McGuire puts up at the former place during the winter, it being his home, and a big reception is promised the reliable catdher. The Senators cet back into the base ball world Thursday, playing at Cleveland, About 75,000 apectctors’ ‘took in the Na- tional Leazue games yesterday, New York having the banner crowd}! 18,000 people at- tending both games. Cincinnati would have carried off the prize far the best crowd but for the rain, as that city turned out 11,000 spectators at the morning’ game. The tactics of the Baltimores in hitting balls straight down ‘onsthe floor” seems invariably successful."

Trouble has been added to the already overflowing cup of Captain Donovan of the Pirates. Yesterday, to maintain the digni- ty and well-being of the team, he soaked a heavy fine upon one of his best pitchers. It was Killen, the winning left-hander, wno caught $100 worth of Captain Patsy's ire. The charge placed opposite his name is that he was guiity of sulking and purpose- ly permitting Chicago to bat out the game of Thursday. It will be remembered that in the seventh inning Everett led off with a slashing triple, and, although the Colts had not been hitting Killen hard he im- mediately let down and the slaughter fol- lowed. In that one round the Colts pound- ed out nine juicy hits and netted eight runs. It was charged that Killen let down in a case of sulks and the twirler himself did not enter an overzealous denial. The reason asstgned is that when Everett came to bat Killen signaled Davis to play over into left for the hit. Instead Davis ex- pected Everett to hit to right and a second later the ball sailed through the spot Kil- len had tried to station the fielder in.—Chi- cago Journal. The change in Sockalexis’ batting has been a queer feature of the Indian's play- ing. At first he was a terrific as well as a frequent hitter, and made as many two and three-baggers as he did singles. He would drive the ball clear to the fence half the times that he landed on it. Then there came a season when “Sox” fell off in his hitting for two or three weeks, and didn’t make many hits of any kind. Now he is again batting well, but his hits are all of he Burkett kind—hard drives between the infielders, or just over their heads, and very seldom does he hit out one of the long smashes which made him famous early in the season. He also does a great deal of bunt hitting. The premier hard hitters of the Cleveland Club are Wallace and O'Con- nor. When either of them hits the ball somebody had better get out of the way or prepare to be knocked over, and they are the mast likely men on the team to whack the ball up against the fence. Blake was just such another vicious hitter. Generally these terrible hard hitters do not have the highest averages, Wallace and Delehanty being two notable exceptions.—Cleveland Leader. MANY GOOD CONTESTS. Race Mect Given by the Local Cycle Bongd of Trade. The race meet at the International Ath- letic Park given yesterday afternoon by the local cycle board of trade proved to be a very successful amateur meet, the first of its kind held this season. The weather was excellent for the sport, the track in good condition. and about 1,800 persons were present to enjoy the program of twenty-two events that were run off, which included the trial heats and the ‘There were fifty-three ataateur entries, and every open race was run in two or nore heats, each heat being contested as hard as though it were a final. ‘The final of the novice race was close and interesting, and out of a field of twelve starters the most remarkabie thing was there were n6 accidents or spills during the event, though the spectators momen- tarily expected something to happen. The time for the final was much slower than for any of the heats, though at the finisn the lead men were prettily bunched. There were two heats in the quarter-mile open and both were good. Von Boeckman took the lead at the start in the first race and held it to the home stretch, when he Was passed by Schade, who won. Throop finished third. The second heat was not so closely contested. istead finished third and Wilson second. Within fifty yards of H. the finish there was a hard struggle be- tween Hardester and Duvall, and, both riders coming together, fell. Burns Dalton, who was behind them, managed to get third place without any’ difficulty. The final in the one-third mile handi was pretty and interesting. Hanger won out, with Pittman second and Maichett third. John Hill fell from his whee! within few fect of the finish and was carried off the track. The two-mile handicap was run in three ts. The second heat was the most iIn- teresting, because Schade, Halstead, Moran nd Smith were in it. Moran had thirty ards, but he dropped back to the tifteen ard mark with Halstead. Schade won the heat, with Moran a close second, Hal- stead third and Smith fourth. In the first heat W. H..Farrington sprawled on the track almost in iront of the grandstand.
