The game of indoor baseball, which was evolved by the most curious of inci- its, has undoubtedly installed ite charms upon the sport-loving public of this big metropolis. This was demon- strated by the crowd which filled the Thirteenth Regiment Armory in Brook- lyn yesterday to witness the second game between teams representing Ail Brooklyn and All New York. Between the game and the original outdoor Summer game there is very little difference, and what differences there are can be explained shortly. The usual hard five-ounce ball is not there, but Instead is found a sphere twice the sige of It, which is as soft as dough, and which Kives way to the smallest squeeze. Then, for the heavy thick bat ts substituted a think stick not unlike that of a broom hanille, No masks, gloves or other means of pro- tection are found on the players, and in the running of bases is the oniy other change to be found, (od Am cacy cated. ‘The sacks are not nailed to the floor, as are the field bares secured to the ground, and aia al if so bill Pushed that he is obliged to slide, can carry the corner with him for a distance Of several fee.

The dog show at Madison Square Garden was greatly enlivened about 2 o'clock this afternoon by a flerce fight between the two bull terriers, Highland Dick and Sunbeam, both of the High- land Park kennels, Highland Dick was badly beaten and was led down stairs to his box in disgrace RR in Dick has the reputation of the ugliest and scrapplest dog at i show. It was he who killed Tinker na fleht early yesterday morning. Since the death of Tinker great pre- cautions have been taken to keep High- land Dick out of trouble. He has been caged in on all sides, and on the par- tition separating him from Sunbeam a double wire fence hal been erected. In some way Dick managed to work a role big enough through the cage, pre- sumably by chewing the wire, to get his head in Sunbeam's stall Both dogs then got down to victous | fighting and before the attendants could reach them they were badly bitten and | covered with blood The fight took ein the north side of the Garden where the terriers are VALENTINE PLEADS.
