by Score of 2 to 3.
The third championship game between the
Mutual and Hartford eluos was played on the
Union Grounds, Brooklyn, E. d., yesterday alter
noon, in the presence OF about 1000 spectators.
The first game was played in Hartior early in the
spring, and resulted in victory Tor the Nutmeg
nlne,n but the second one was won by the Muluals,
after sharp contest.
OF course the betting on this, the third game
was greatly in favor of the Mutuais, the sporting
men even Offering odds that the Hartfords would
be beaten in two innings AS the score shows
they were defeated in one inning.
Play was "called'' at four O'Clock sharp, the
visitors going first to bat and being promptly
ielded out in the order OF striking. Higham catch

third inning settled the question OF victory beyond
perauventure. Having been BANKED by the Mu-
tuals, the HartIords, by poor play. allowed the
New 10rnerS 10 score no fewer imam uVe runs WneN
they should nave been whitewasled with the ut
most ease. Alter this inning the Nutmeg" people
played up to their usual hl2n standard and marred
the game by but very few errors In the fifth
inning Burdock made wonderful stop OF hard
INT oal, and then threw IL over to Start like riie

plauded. Again, IN the sixth inning the same
payer brought down the housen by taking a 6y

OF the general play on Doth sides too much can
not be sald IN praise, as the game from first TO
last was made up OF sharp heiding and good bat
ting But two errors were committed by the Mu-
tuas-a missed ioul by Hlgham and an over pitch
by Matthews. In the ninth inning Barnie, OF the
iiartlurds went behind the bal and immediately
marked his play by making remarkably fine
