nf Matthews. Play was called at .. 1n. with
The Eostous at bat. and Mr. Patterson as umpire.
In the first inning the Bostons made three runs,
Two of which were carried, but the Mutuals were
not SO fortunate, and had to content themselves
with one. The Bosi ous were b1snked in the eoc-
ond- In this inning the Mutuals we're
more euccessful, and, being aided by errors OF
the: Bostons and a three-base hit by Higham,
ecored TWO runs. The Bostons were disposed OF
in the order Of striking in the third inning. The
1futua!s in this inning succeeded in getting III
on Spaidlng's pitching, aud knocked the bail all
over tie field, much to the disgust Of the betting
men, who had invested heavily on tho Bostons
winning. The A1utuals wero not disposed Of
before eight runs had been scored. This gave
the Mutuas winning lead. which they i'm
proved on during the remainder OF the game,

their Eastern tour which has so far been as sue
cessful as tho most enthusiastic admirer OF the
club could wish. They have won two handsome
victores from the Baltlmores, the only club theY
hare get encountered, and the score OF both
games, as published in TIE TRIBUNE, give hope
full indications that the Whites are in
excellent trim both as batters and field
ers, and will return home with
record that will place them at least second IN
the race for the championship. The club which
fhayh hAc da{aefad
days ago administered the 6oundess druhbing to
the Bostons that that boasted organization Of
players ever sustained at tho hands OF a rival
ninc, md it is but reasonable to assume that the
home club, now that it il away from the inju-
dicious praee Of it's own people and their still
less judlcious condemnation, will successfully
cope with this and all other competitors. It
would not he such a great surprise after
oil if thev come back the winners OF every game
of the trip, because they have it in them to win,
and are better fitted By circumstances that cAn-
not be Clearly explained, to come out victorious
against such opposition as q fofeign audience
can bring to bear, than when surrounded by
friends. This has always been the case with the
professionals clubs that have preceded them in
this city, and 1t may be the same with them.
Maannbile, dullng the absence ct the club,
about the only matter TINT will interest the gen
cral base ball rcader is proposition which GER
tain Aldermen are advocating to exact
a HEAVY LICENSE
when professional games are played. Aid.
CullcEton, who has no base ball in lis soul is
said to be the originator OF this movement, and,
while it doubtless is not in the least spitelul on
his part, it is very easv to detect little petty
epito on the part Of many who support him.
The Base Ball Association has issued no season-
tickets to tue Common Council this year, and
that explains the matter pretty fully. None
of the city governments OF the coun-
try have even troached the license
question thus far, and many Of them allow the
free uss OF municipal grounds. The Chicago
Class Of amusement should not pay for privileges
Us well HI other classes. There is reasou how
ever, why the e1act,on should not be made in
this city. and 1t is good one. It has been the
floln tie beginning of tie season, to devote the
proceeds OF certain games to different chari-
Liable institutions, and not only that, but
to give open-air musical entertainments On

mission feo to the grand stand to be added to
those OF the game, ard donate al to the particu-
Irr institution selected beneficiary on the
