Base Ball.

A Draw Game Between Yale and the New
 York Mines at the Park.
 Some two hundred people were at the park yesterday afternoon to witness the second game between the Yale and New York hines. Yale won the first game of the series by a score of to 5. There were many bad errors on both sides, but as the afternoon was chilly and cold wind blew across the grounds, some of them were perhaps excusable. The feature of the game was difficult running fly catch made by Badger. This was perhaps the best play made by member of the nine this season. Three fine double-plays were made by the Yale team, one being @ hy-catch by Watson in left field and then a beautiful throw to home base, where Ives put the sec ond man out. The best work for Yale was done by Badger. Walden, Hopkins and Camp, while for New York, Brothers, Leary and Callahan did good work. The base rum ming of Yale was as usual very poor and there is great need of improvement in this particular. The New York nine claimed the game by score of to and so did not con- sider it necessary to finish the ninth inning. Yale claims that the game is tie. The dis puted tally was made in the sixth inning by Gardner. Walden was put out while running from first to second, and made the third mar out The spectators were unanimous in ths opinion that Gardner reached the home plate before Walden was put out, and if so the TUT counts. MT. Hitler ran towards second il order to judge if Walden was put out, ant his back being turned, he did not see whe1 Gardner came in; therefore, he said, he. hat no right to decide the point.

MILLINERY.

It seldom happens that we are compelled to forego a description for want of words sufficiently forcible to express ourselves, but here our vocabulary fails us. No pen pie ture can do justice to so grand 8 display of Trimmed Hats and Bonnets as were on exhi- bition in our Millinery Parlors on Opening Day. We showed not fifty but over four hundred magnificent conceptions of first-class artists, no two hats being alike. Very many of these were sold before noon, (the purcha- sers kindly permitting them to remain on ex- hibition until Saturday.. In this department we have been compelled to increase our force fourfold. The orders given on Thursday, Fri day and Saturday last exceeded in number any six days business we have ever done. Ladies wishing to leave their favors with us are respectfully requested to allow at least FIVE DAYS time in which to complete them

Death of Linie J. Russell.

Miss lille J. Russell died at her home, No. 1G Lincoln street, on Tuesday afternoon, of consumption. She had been in feeble health for more than year, but nc serious fears were entertainedfor her recovery, until after the death of her father, which occurred last November, since which time grieving for him whom she so dearly loved hastened the dread disease which took her to join him in the better world, Although enduring the most extreme suffering. she was never heard to murmur or complain, but bore it all with true Christian fortitude and resignation, feeling that all was right. Possessing very amiable disposition, and of very quiet and refined manners, she gained the love of all who knew her. She was q member of the Hieh School and a diligent scholar. The funeral takes place on Friday afternoon ct ? o'clock.

Dress Goods and Silks.

We're you so fortunate as to reach this De- partment on Opening Day? You were, like many others, held speI-bound at the magni- fcent display of Rich Foreign Fabrics. Nat urally great deal of attention centered in the long arcade of Silks, satins, and Rare Old-World Gems. Things of such beauty as to make one wonder if they were really wrought, and were not discovered full bloom in some Eastern world. It is pleasure to look at such goods, even to those who never hope to possess them. Yet our prices are not more high than the domestic limitations of fered by other city dealers, and the excessive ly heavy sales of opening day satisfy us that we have no competition in this line.
