Mercer has kept the hits down lower than he did yesterday, but it .is doubtful If he ever pitched more effectively than he did in this one. He allowed the hard-hitting visitors but six safeties dur- ing their nine innings, put out three men and had three assists to his- credit. He gave three bases cn balls, but not one of them figured in the run-getting of his op- ponents, and he struck out three of the Baltimcre men. He obtained but one hit, but that one was a homer over Holmes’ head, which sent in two men ahead of him. Nops, the left-harded twir-er of the Bal- timors team, occupied the rubber for the visitors. Nine hits were secured off him, two of them being home runs, Anderson being the other Washington man to make the circuit of the bases on a hit. A re- markably clever catch by Willie Keeler in the eighth inning deprived Doyle of a like honor. The hard-hitting little Oriole grab- bed the ball as it was flying over into the Fight field bleachers, with his left hand. suffering a number of scratches on hi fece and arms by coming in contact wit the wire*fence. It was a daring and su cessful attempt, and it received the ap- plause the pluck and play deserved. Nop &eve three passes and had four strike-outs to his credit, Gettman fanning twice and Myers and Mercer once each. ‘¥ttman failed to get a hit, Myers being the only other Senator to so fail, and it appeared that had Jake restrained his desire to nib- ble at very high balls he would have been spared the misfortune of fanning. De Montreviile played short for the vis- itors, exchanging positions with Jenzings. He was rather coldly received by the crowd. He was at the bat three times, but failed to get a hit, popping up a little fly to Mercer in one attempt to bunt and bounding one to the Washington twirler on another attempt, easily being thrown out at first. He had but three chances in the field, one of which he badly fumbled. The crowd was very aggressive, particularly these in the bleachers, and they urimerci- fully guyed the Baltim in thei vain attempts to curves, straights an: was the only one Kelley and McGann were put out of the game in the eighth inning for loudly pro- testing against the decision of Umpire Cushman that McGann had fanned out, three men then being on the bases. In this inning tne visitors scored their only run. Nops, the first man up, successfully bunt- ed, but was forced at second by McGraw’s grounder to Reitz. Keeler singled to left, puttiag Mugsey on second. Jennings’ foul fly was captured by Myers near the left field dleachers, but Kelley sent McGraw in by a single to center. Mercer tapped De Montreville in the ribs, and it was a case of “Casey at the Bat” ‘when McGann, who had already secured a single and a double, stepped to the plate. The big first base- man first struck at a wild one, and then failed to connect with a slow drop. The next one pitched by Mercer was a tantal- izing low drop, at which McGann gazed in a hesitating way, and was promptly and properly called out. The first rurfof the game was made by the Senators in the first inning, after two men were out. Selbach beat out a bunt, stole second, and scored on Anderson's sin_ gle to left. In the fourth inning Myers was given a pass, and Wrigley placed him on second by a single to right. McGraw and Holmes, after Mercer had given an indica- tion to bunt, drew in very closely, when the Washington twirler smashed one past Holmes. The ball rolled to the left fieid fence and behind the sign board, Winnie making the circuit of the bases behind Myers and Wrigley. The fifth run made by the Senators was due to a long drive by Anderson to right center in the eightu Inning. Score: Washington. R.H.0.4.E., R.H.O.A.E.

Willie Keeler is simply a wonder. ‘The usual Baltimore delegation was miss- ing. The Senztors simply outbatted and out- fielded the birds. De Mont’s error gave the Senators their first run at the start-off. Maul and Hughes will pitch for the birds today, while Swaim and Evans will prob- ably twirl for the Senators. Pretty hard on the pitcher when balls like the ones hit t} McGraw and McGann go down as safeties in the official score. That boy Wrigley is doing very well. Five assists, two put outs and two singles are pretty good for one day. A full delegation of the Baltimore news- Paper men was on hand in the press bor yesterday, and were quite sure over the downfall of the birds. They don’t like the Senators even a, little bit. Manager Hanlon released Pitcher Arling- ten Pend yesterday, and there is consider- able talk of his letting Hoffer go, but the “Wizard” is such a good utility player that he may be carried through th» season on this account. There is no oomparison between this year’s Baltimore club and the aggregation that sported the black and orange last season. Jennings’ retirement from short has made a big difference in the infleld, and all the aggressiveness for which the birés are noted is missing. Nops had Gettman on his string yester- day. The Russian boy scemed to be en- tirely at sea on the left-hander’s curves, letting the good ones go by and going after ghe bad ones. Jake tried batting right- anded and failed, and then shifted to left, but with no better results. Willie Keeler’s catch of Doyle's long hit to the bleechers in the eighth was a won- derful exhibition of nerve. The little fel- low reached the ball at the same time he struck the fence, but he held on to the sphere with a tenacity that was astonish- ing. The fence and wires cut Keeler badly around the shoulder and face. The catch was almost a dead ringer for the one he ‘made last season, a play that saved the game for the birds. Captain Joe Kelley has given it out that the reason he shifted from left to center field was on account of the sun. A rumor floats over from Baltimore that Joe heark- ened to the wishes of his wife and hied himself away from the left garden so as to take no chances on broken bones as a re- sult of colliding with the left field seats in going after long flies. Umpire Cushman has a hesitating way about his work that gives the players an opening to go after him, and also makes a bad impression in the box. He is undoubt- edly conscientious in everything he does, but it is a great pity that firmness and quickness of perception are not stowed away in his make-up.

Today’s games at National Park will be the last until July 4, when the Senators and Brooklyns cross ba A better record is looked for on this trip than the last, and should the Sena- tors return in an advanced position in the championship race a big crowd can bo looked for at the park on their return, Base ball must have sunk to a low ebb in Baltimore. Harry Pulliam of the Louis- villes received only $73 for Louisville's share of one game played in the monu- mental city. The Cincinnatis need not be looking for easy games anywhere along the line. They will not get to loaf in any contest. Ail the clabs will stack up their best article against the Reds all the time. It was the Leuisville and Washington teams that put the Reds out of the Temple cup money in Those who have been booming Gaffney for a member of the league staff of um- Pires might just as well save their breath. According to Harry Pulliam Gaff hasn't even a field chance. Pulllam says that President Young told him tha® if every club in the league indorsed Gaffney he would not appoint him. President Young has had some exciting experiences with Gaff and “broken promises.” He will not give him another trial. A ball came whizzing by high and two fcet wide of the plate. Cushing called it a strike, putting out McGann, and, as it de- veloped, probably losing the game for Bal- timore.—Baltimore American. . The next ball was low, and a foot from the plate at least, but Cushman said “three strikes and out.”—Baltimore Sun. Here are two opinions directly opposite on a decision that the visitors claimed lost them the game, and yet they criticise the peor umpire. = | M. A. C. Athletic Sports. The athletic sports which form a part ot the closing exercises at the Maryland Agricultural College took place yesterday, under the direction of Prof. H. M. Strick- ler. In the field sports, Galt carried off the honors. He won the 100-yard run in 10 3-5 seconds; 50-yard run, 53-5 seconds; hep, step and jump, 38 feet; putting shot, 27 feet 6 inches; running broad jump, 18 feet 111-2 inches; stanling broad jump, 10 feet 1-2inch. Dirkinson came second, mak- SS healthy, robust sons and daughters, and did not become weak, complaining invalids as a consequence. There are probably several reasons for this. One is, that they lived more in the open air, and another, and probably the most influential of all, is that they were less prudish than the women of to-day.

A sudden squall struck the two-mas‘ed oyster boat Leading Breeze of Rock Point, Charlés county, Md.. about five miles town the river, at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoor, and capsized it, throwing the occupants, F. M. Higgins, the owner of the boat, and R. A. Vaughn, its captain, overboard. Mr. Higgins was unable to swim, and Capt. Vaughn was having a difficult time assist- ing him, when the steamer Samuel J. Fentz came up. Capt. H. I. Randall of the Pentz ordered a lifebcat lowered, and the unfortunate men were rescued in an ex- hausted condition by two colored dec hands, Benjamin Lawson and Thomas Car- ter. The Leading Breeze sunk in about thirty feet of water. She will probably be raised, as she was valued at $1,000. + Says Husband, Deserted Her. Dora J.

Passengers on the steamer Norfolk, whica arrived from Norfolk this morning, it~ néssed last night on Chesapeake bay the fall of a meteor, the most brilliant on> that has ever bean seen in this séction of the country. The meteor fell in the southeast quarter, and far out to sea, leaving behind a trail of fire that extended half way across the firmament. As the great satellite shot across the sky it lighted up the entire bay, throwing a silvery she2n on the black waves as brilliant as the moon’s rays when that orb is fullest. Night had just fallen when the meteor appeared. It was shortly after 6:30 o'clock, ard the boat, an hour out from Old Point Comfort, was proceeding rapidly up the Chesap2ake, making for the mouth of the Potomac river. The large crowd enjoying the sail from the deck noticed suddenly a falling star. Instead of disappearing imme- diately, as is usually the case, the falling body continued on its swe2ping course, moving in a semi-circular direction toward the horizon. As it approached, the meteor gradually appeared larger, until when it flashed over the ship it was one great, white, blazing mass, having th> appearance of a gigantic Roman candle ball, a stream of sparks following in its wake, apparently nany mites in length. As the crowd, awe-stricken, watched the beautiful display the blaze disappeared be- hind a bank of dens> clouds, appearing fraction of a moment later through a rift near the horizon, and finally disappearing forever. The meteor made a profound im- pression on all the passengers. It was all * dahil ssiinains ioewtenlapial : : 3 $ ; § 3 Barber & Ross ‘This splendid little lawn mower at $1.95 of merit.
