The Giants had made but seven hits off Killen up to that time. Warner, the third man to bat in this In- ning, drove one between third and short, and Gatans made a m of Rusie’s ground- er, the big twirler being safe on a wide throw. Van Haltren singled to left, scor- ing Warner, Van Haltern going to second on Selbach’s throw in. With a man on third and second, and with but one run needed to tie and two to win, Killen found himself in an unusually tight place, the next batsman being Davis. It was grow- ing dark very rapidly, and Killen was therefore somewhat handicapped. He fai ed to locate the plate and Davis filled the bases on a pass. Joyce was no less fortu- nate, and Rusie waiaed in with the tleing run. Seymour made a mighty effort for a single, but the best he could do was to pop up a little fly to MeGuire.

Pardee, who has been secured by Pitts- burg, is called the ‘‘Rusie of the west.” He began playing professional ball in 1897 as a member of the St. Joe team of the West- ern Association. In August of that year he was transferred to Kansas City, and has been a cowboy ever since. George Tebeau, who ts spoken of In con- nection with the Brooklyn management, has had an experience this season some- what similar to his brother. He has had charge of the Columbus team, and this team, like the Clevelands, has been without a home part of the year. DISTRICT T TOURNEY. Those Who Will Aim for the Local Championship. Considerable speculation 1s being indulged in as to the chances of the various aspir- s for the championship of the District. When the present champion, Mr. J. C. Goodfellow, received an appointment as lieutenant in the regular army, this city lost one of its strongest and most promis- ing tennis players. His game had rapidly improved, und it was noped that he might be heard from in some of the big tourna- ments in the north. He will be u defend the championship, it Is understood. A great obstacle in the path of budding players of this city is Mr. Davidsen, who has for many years quietly squelched ail comers with absolute in trophy after trophy to his colle it became almost an accepted that trophy championship embier only for him in District events, wl chose to enter, which he mostly did.

A. € also Messrs. Campbell, Taliaferro and Pomeroy of the same club. The Bachelors’ Club, upen whose grounds the tournament will be held, contains many strong players who will contest—A. G. Wimer, G. P. Parkes, Ralph Hills, E. E. Whiting and Pierre Waggaman, as well as the Wilson brothers, N. T. and Clarence R. It is re- ported that the several High Schools may be represented, as also Georgetown Uni- versity. The entries close Monday. HOMING PIGEON RACES. Exercising Young Birds of the Wash- ington District. ‘The first young bird race of this season of the Washington district of the National Federation of American Homing Pigeon Fanclers took place from Chester, Va., Sep- tember 11, 158 birds being liberated by Mr. J. M. Cofer, who wired: “Birds liberated at ; weather clear; wind northwest.” The same conditions prevailed at home. The following is the average speed of the first return to each loft: P. Kraus, 834 yard C. F. Hengesbach, 819 yard Lean, 8.21 yards; T. A. W yards; T. E. Francis, 84 yards; Jas. Ga ner, S00 yards; Jas. Beardsley .'K. Bliss, 708 yards; F. E.’ Young, 710 yards; L. B. Nye, 701 yards. The second race took place from Belfiell, Va., September 18, ninety-six birds being liberated by W. W. Greene, who wired: “Birds liberated at 8:15; fair and calm At home the wind was northwest. The following is the average speed of the first return to each loft: A. C. McLean, 05 yards; T. A. Walshe, 944 yards; J. E. Beardsley, 942 yards; T, BE. Francis, 941 yards; P. Kraus, 918 yards; W. F. Dismer, w2 yards; Jas. Garner, 869 yards; J. H. Palmer, 865 yards; H. K. Biiss, 693 yards. Century Cycle Club. Last Sunday Messrs. Williams, Meher, Monroe. Hollander, O'Connor, McAnally, Barnhartt, Wathen, Boyle, Kauffman, Stevenson, Wells and Rosson, under the command of Capt. Byrnes, lined along the Baltimore and Washington pike to pace Mr. C. A. Brown of the Century Road of America, of New York city, who was ex- pected to arrive from New York at Balti- more Sunday afternoon. Two of the boys, Messrs. Williams and Meher, waited until in Baltimore, and word was brought that the record breaker had not appeared at Philadelphia. The boys started for Yashington at a warm gait, and were at Laurel by Byrnes, Hollander, Monroe and Wells, near College by O'Con* nor and Wathen, and at Hyattsville by Barnhartt and McAnally, the others re- maining at the Capitol steps us timers. The club was much disappointed that Brown failed to appear, as the boys were just in shape to bring him along at a rattling hot pace. A large number will go to Baltimore to- morrow to enter the Century Cycling Club's run to Frederick, Md., and next Sunday the Arlington Wheelmen’s century comes off, and a large delegation from the Centu- rions will also enter this run. ‘aptain Byrnes would like all members that are go- ing to Baltimore this evening to meet him at the club house at 10:30. Howard Fisk is off on a trip in the She- nandoah valley Louis Abell has just returned from a trip in southern Maryland. THE RACING CYCLISTS Perhaps the most wonderful five-mile handicap race of history was that run at the Woodside meeting at Philadelphia last Saturday night—wonderful, owing to the fact that not a fall occurred on the im- perfectly lighted track. Twenty-three men rode in the first heat and twenty-four in the second, with sixteen in the final, and in all three contests the fields bunched early, swinging around the track in a solld and unbroken mass, shifting frequently and changing positions with lightning-like rapidity, as viewed in the changeable light. It a grand sight, but to any one with ‘ves anything but steady a terrible one. The sweep of the great fields in the final, when they came like a whirlwind to the finishing tape, brought the large crowd to its feet with a dread only expressed by the entire silence of all. This was broken by a cheer when the field finished in safety. Orlando Stevens and Plugger Bill Martin meet tonight in a five-mile heat race at Ehiladelphia. Collett and Hausman of New Haven and Kraemer of Newark are king pins in the amateur ranks today. In the two meets at Philadelphia last Saturday Collett, Krae- mer, Hausman was the order of finish in the two-mile open races, while in the han- dicap of a mile In the evening Kraemer, Collett and Hausman was the order. Krae- mer also won the afternoon handicap. John Nobre, the Philadelphian, holder of the yearly record of 253 centuries, which Edwards has thus far failed to’ lower, through sickness, says that Edwards is not engaged in an impossible task, and that 365 centuries in a year are possible. Edwards’ illness is going to lay him off just long enough to make the finishing hard and sensational, Inasmuch as in ninety- four remaining days he will have to double up nineteen days in all. Edwards says that it is possible and that he will make the attempt. In a handicap race it would naturally be Supposed that fourteen men of average speed out in front would be able at all tmes to maintain a pace by changing and changing about, sufficient to keep four men in the back bunch from closing, even though the rear men be speedier, but such is not the case, for the front men have ra:tly brains ertough to see through this a they loaf while the back men do the changing and soon gain the front. Just now Eddie Bald Is the easies in the world to handle in nis conditioning Eddie realizes that he has before him the battle of his life and he is wasting no op. pertunities to gain the championship. — His fall at Mahanoy cost him very heavy, and may before the incident is closed cost him the championship, as he must again get into the pink of condition such as he was in before that fall.
