AS an illustration OF the uncertainty OF the game Of
base ball nothing could be moro strknaly appropriate
than the game which played on The Union Grounds
yesterday In the game on Friday tho Cincinnats had
great difficulty in hitting Matthews' pitching, which,
no doubt, caused the betting high yesterday
in favor Of the Mutuals-poos selling at $50 to SIS.
Every person present yesterday therefore, felt GER
tain that tho Mutuals would again win the day. TO
the surprise the audience chagrin OF tho bet
ting men, tho Cincinnas had trouble about batting
the balls pitched by Matthews, but struck them with
perfect ease. The Mutuals had but up to the
eighth inning when they got in streak OF batting aud
sc red two runs, both OF which were earned. In tho
an error by Kssscr. Booth and Matthew'S the
strikers both dsp posed Of Nichols made pretty
base hit Maloncy followed with beautiful three

VERY AWKWARD FOB THEODORE

From reports current yesterday It would appear that
Mr. Theodore Tton was mixed up in a disagrceabls
affair First Atlantic express yesterday morning
while on his way from Albany 10 Now YORK. From
what porter states 1t would appear that Mr. Tton
left his sleeping berth In order to request him the por
tori to black tho boots so near hm as IL disturbed
mis- sleep. Upon roturnng 1t is alleged that Mr. TOn
did cot nd his way his berth, but to tho lower
one which was already occupied. When the train
reached East Albany gentleman inquired for the pre-
vous occupant OF tho berth into which II IA alleged
that Mr.. Tiiton got and upon being shown to u
saw Tlton, but not tho person he was In search
oi Upon being assured that tho sought one was 10
tho berth he returned satisfied himself OF tho TACT and
would, IT. seems. have proceeded 10 pistol Mr. Titou
had he not been prevented He, however, visited his
marital upon Mr. I,lton's iace The latter is rc.
ported have stated that he got into Tho berth by
mistake, an explanation which does not seem to have
satisfied tho iniuracd husband, and appears likely
tho may occupy tho attention Of the courts.
Tho story has received all kinds OF embellishments,
but reports 10 confirm the correctness OF the
fnCts hbOyc stated.
