SPORTS IN GENERAL Eight of the Washington Base Ball _ Team in the City. PROSPECTS OF GEORGETOWW'S NINE Bowling Games Won by Carroll Institute. THE CABLE CHESS MATCH The senatorial aggregation now numbers eight. Gus Weyhing,.made the sixth, ar- riving late Saturday night, and this morn- ing Pitchers Hillary Swaim and Joe Don- ovan registered at the Hotel de Brown. Weyhing is the picture of health and talks hepefully of his return to the National League ranks. His experience in the Texas League last year makes him confident of regaining his old-time form and consequent high ability as a twirler. Swaim is the same Hillary of last seagdn, not a pound under or over the weight he carried last yesr; but he eays hé will be betier able to handle his elongated form this season and get all the grounders around the pitcher's slab that caused him so much trouble. Joe Donovan also looks as if the winter was good to him in the matter of health, his weight being about 180, at which figures he played last year in the Connecticut League. Donovan is a twirler molded on the lines of Ai Maul, being able to do good work from the slab, but should necessity arise can play any of the in or outiield posi- tions in a more than satisfactory manner. ‘The weather was too cold this morning for practice, but Capt. Brown swung the bcys into line this afternoon for light ex- ercise, and warm weather will find them all at the park morning and afternoon from this on. J. Eerl Wagner arrived this af- ternoor from Philadelphia, and will no doubt talk business to the players that Fave not signed contracts tomorrow morn- irg. Mr. Wagner's family is with him, and will take up their residence in Mount Pleasant, as last year. As soon as Swaim struck Washington he asked about the great ship Vesuvius, and, taking Weyhing in tow, set sail immediate- ly for the navy yard. Hillary threatens to quit base ball in case of war with Spain 2nd take charge of a company of Ohio beys who are anxious to fight under his leadership. @ LOOKS LIKE A GOOD NINE. The Georgetown University to Begin the Season Saturday. The Georgetown University nine will open the season Saturday with the Johns Hop- kins University nine in a game on the Georgetown campus. The new $3,000 grand stand will be in readiness. The preliminary work of tne Georgetown team has led the students to expect the strongest team Georgetown has had in three years. The practice begar quite inauspiciously, with five vacant positions from last year's team to fill and a weak pitching department to strengthen. By much perseverance and determined efforis Captain Daniel McCar- thy, assisted by Gene De Monireville, has done both, and the season will open with every prospect of having a winning team. Bach and Tracey, last year’s substitute, are the only two old men available. Walsh will not attempt to do any pitching until the season is well advanced. Among the aspiring twirlers two most promising youngsters have been found in Eddie Dowd and Miles, a left-hander, from Cedar Rap- ids, Iowa, both of whom are expected to develop into stars. Downes, another new man, from Missouri, an excellent fielder and batter, is also a good pitcher who can be used: if necessary. Maloney will again hold up the receiv- ing end of the battery. First base will be covered by Casey, a Brown University man for two terms. Fleming of last year’s*team will play sec- ond base. Third will be occupied by Haf- ford, an ex-High School player, who made a fine record as captain and third base- man at Sommerville, Mass., the past two seasons. Short will be covered by Charles Moran, a locs] amateur of much repute, who comes from Gonzaga College, and Dan McCarthy will play his old position in the field. McCarthy has played on the team the past three years. Downes will proba- bly be used regularly in center field, while the right garden will be taken care of by Michael Walsh, the pitcher. The schedule cf games to be played by the team, as arranged by Manager Morris W. Head and approved by the faculty and athletic committee, is as follows: March 26, Johns Hopkins; 30, Gallaudet; April 1, Lafayette; 2, Washington League; 6, Le- high; 7, Yale; 9, Princeton; 11, Princeton; 12, Dartmouth; 13, Pennsylvania; 16, Rich- mond; 20, Harvard; 23, Maryland; 27, Washington and Lee, all at Georgetown; 30, Virginia, at Charlottesville; May 4, Villanova, at Georgetown; 7, Pennsylvania, at Philadelphia; 9, Virginia; 10, Virginia; 11, Dickinson, all at Georgetown; 14, Mount St. Mary’s, at Emmittsburg; 18, Pennsyl- vania State; 21, All-Scholastics of Philadel- phia, both at Georgetown; 24, Wesleyan, at Middletown; 25, Yale, at New Haven; 26, Dartmouth, at Hanover; 27, Boston College, at Boston; 28, Holy Cross, at Worcester; 30, Orange Athletic Club, at Orange, |. (two games); June 1, Prince- ton, at Princeton. CARROLLS AND GEORGETOWNS. Institute Bowlers Won Two of the = Twuree Games. ‘The Carroll Institute reserve team played a return match with the Georgetown Col- lege bowlers on the college alleys yester- day. The games-were cloge and interest- ing’, the Institutes winning two of the three games, although they had to hustle to pull the last game out. Ourand of the Carrolls, a left-hand bowler, was compelled on ac- count of injuries to his hand to bow: with his right hand, so seriously handicapping him that all of his games were very low. The scores follow: Fy es tid f g3 " if e PEATE TEASER ALE RSE Don’t Suffer from Catarrh. —No matter how discouraged have be- come—no matter how Temmedies gou've he one remedy—REMINGTON'S CA- ve you encour age- ment in a few wonderful rem- ody of the age—and the oniy Medium known that can consumption. ~The REMINGTON CATARRH CURE ts the result of many scars’ study and treat- ment of ti appetite, pro. : sleep, invigorates che whole £ system and increases vitality ae as for any one to fect health while suffering from the: Avep. {€ ping of mucus in th» throat, which is offensive and unhealthy to’ character ni sone every breath that taken Into the lungs, thereby rendering and impure fe é x a £ * suffering and restore perfect health.

Hodges had an advantage in position in his game with Bellingham, and soon after play was re- sumed Saturday won a pawn. It was not until eighty-five moves had been made be- fore the Staten Islander was able to score the game. Showalter was a pawn ahead at adjournment Friday, but it seemed doubtful if he could win. He was equal to the occasion, and the big Kentuckian scored his third victory in three matches, which is also the record made by Barry. Pillsbury was again pitted against Black- burnc, and the best he could do against the English champion was to score a draw. This is the third time he has met Black- burne in these cable matches, and his score is one game lost and two draws. In the Hastings tournament, in which Pills- bury won first prize, Blackburne drew his game against Pillsbury. Atkins had, by skillful playing, obtained the advantage of Hymes of Ni Jersey, and should have won, but by p! ture play he lost all the advantage, and had to content himseif with a draw by perpetual check. This is the third match in which Hymes has se- cured a draw. Baird played a good me, and, as was expected, secured a draw. The following shows the results of the match, with a statement of the figures in previous years: United States. Great Britain, -13%! Grand totals..... 14% It will be noticed that the Americans did not lose at any one of the first five boards, and that if the match had been confined to them the score would have been 4 to 1 in favor of the United States. At the last five boards the Americans scored but half a point, and the result justified the criticism that has been passed on the lower half of the team. Delmar, who has been playing in poor form the past vear, showed to poor advantage in the match, and Robinson did not play as well as expected. The fact is Robinson was not in good trim for the match, as he has not played match chess for some time. He was not the choice of the Franklin Club, which, it is understood, made no recommendation. Prove as strong in actual play as he is in theory, and Galbreath proved another dis- appointment. A New Orleans paper has denied the statement that Galbreath de- feated Seguin by the score of 5 to 0. Taking Pillsbury, Showalter, Barry, Hymes, Hodgeseand Baird as a nucleus of a team, it would seem as if four players could be secured who would bring victorv to the American banner. This is only con- Jecture, however, as any four chosen might do no better than the four who lost !n the match Saturday. Local Chess Contests. Saturday evening last the third game was played in the match for the District chess championship between Messrs. F. B. Walker and L. Tharp, resuiting in a vic- tory for Mr. Walker, who now leads by the score of 2 to 1. The spring tournament of the Washing- ton Chess Club was begun Saturday even- ing. There were thirteen entries, the pair- ing for the first round being as follows: Harris aginst Tibbetts, Ray aginst Odell, Campbell against Hanna, Gwyer against Adair, Crofts
