An Interesting Lawsuit.
from the Pail Mall Gazette. I


Great interest has attached to lawsuit
eide the ownership of st. Bernard dog,
the possession of which was disputed BY an
hotel keeper and manufacturer of YER
mouth, both of whom were equally ready
to swear to it's identity. 1t appears that
two dogs of the same litter, marked exactly
alike, were given by their breeder to the
hotel keeper and the vermouth manufac-
turer; one of the dogs answering to the
name of Lion, and the other to that Of
Tiger. Both of these dogs were lost At the
same time; one disappeared never to re-
turn; but the other, after having been nis-
sing for week or two, was found and
brought back to the vcrmouth manufac-
turer, who was not little rejoiced to re-
cover possession of his pet. The hotel
keeper, however, heard that his dog had
been found, and had been taken to the ver-
mouth manufacturer, and he lost no time
in gcing to demand its restoration, for, Il
should be added to make the story more
intelligihle, neither of the two knew that
the other had the brother dog. The ver-
mouth manufacturer refused, of course, to
give up what he considered to bu his p op-
erty, and the hotel keeper at olce took pro-
ceedings against him. The witnesses upon
each side were equally positive In their
allirmatiops, and the Judge ordered the dog
to be brought into Court with ayicw Of
seeing which of the parties he would recog-
nize. Unfortunately, both iu the interests

tion of both claimants, and even Of the coun-s
sci and the judge himself. Tie affair
seemed to be wrapped in the most impcrc-
trablc mystery until shoemaker, who had
been employed to mend the collar Of one Of
the dogs, came forward to swear that the
dog which had been brought into Court
wore the collar which he had meEded, and
that he had done the work for the vermoUth

win, of Philadelphia. Audience 400.
The victory won by the Amateurs was no
doubt owing to their extraordinary batting,
which exceeded every thing ever seen in
this city but their playing all round was
excellent. Dickerson lifted a fly ball over
the centre field mans head, out into the lot
beyond, much to the amazement of the
visitors and admiration Of the crowd.
Snyder, of the Cincinnatis, did the same
thing, which was also complimented.
McFadden, of the Archers, caught for
the home club, and did his work with COOL
ness and precision. Smiley, as short, quite
distinguished himself, and Talley won de-
served praise by making number of base
hits. The playing, in fact, was at times
brilliant on both sides, but certainly the
superiority belongs to the home nine this
time.
The visitors made several errors at field
ing, but occasionally made very rapid and
systematic plays. The audience was highly
delighted with the result, and expressed
their appreciation for the Amateurs by
liberal demonstrations of applause.
On Monday the Baltimores, of Baltimore,
will play the Amatuers at the Rodney Street
Grounds. Ladies are admitted gratis.
Game called at three o'clock.
McFadden, of the Archers, is a good
catcher, and if he does as well on Monday
as he did yesterday the Amateurs will en-
gage him permanently for the season.
On Thursday the Athletics and Amateurs
will play in Philadelphia.
Next Friday the New Havens will visit
this city and play the Quicksteps at the
Rodney street grounds.
Our home club did excellently yesterday
showing very conclusively that rapid I'M
provemedts has marked their career SO far
during the season.
Carl has candelled his engagement with
the Amateurs of this city; he will plaG with

The narrow guage railway, nuisance, as
it is, does the best business done about the
grounds, carrying on an average about 49,
people every day.
Those visiting the exhibition now will see
about as much as can be seen for months
hence,
The strawberry display in Agricultural
Hall is very poor. The peach display ought
to be made much finer.
No goods are to be admitted after June
14th, except those intended for the special
displays, such as of fruits, &c.
Numbers of passes improperly obtained
are being taken up
Judging from the boots and shoes in the
French Department, the French beat the
world for style in those articles. The Eng
lish, however, do very we'll, especially in
lightness of workmanship. They have pair
of jocky-b oots exhibited that weigh only
three ounces.
Ireland exhibits some of the finest hoisery
in the world. 1t is made at Balbriggan,
about twelve miles from Dublin.
Visitors need not hesitate about making
inquiries of the guards. Something has at
last been knocked into their heads. We
saw two or three very intelligent ones, con-
sidering, the other day over by the British
Buildings.
The Sunday opening question seems to be
half asleep. After all, it may be better to
let 1t rest, without, however, batting a jot In
the princip that the exhibition should be
opened on Sunday afternoons.
