BASE BALL.

The OlympIcs Badly Beaten ny
the Defiance, Of PhAladelphA@
Yesterday.
About two hundred persons Assem- :
bled at the Front and Union street
grounds yesterday afternoon to witness
the game of base ball between the De-
fiance club, of Philadelphia, and the
Olympics of this city. The game was
called promptly at $50 O'Clock with
the visitors at the bat, who scored Two
runs. The home club was retired In
one, two, three order in the first three
innings, while the visitors succeeded In
scoring every inning and ran their
score up rapidly. The playing OF the
visitors was exceedingly good and they
had a ''picnic" as 1t were, with the
Olympics, who we're unable to hit Pol
lard, the Defiance pitcher, and only
succeeded In making three base hits
while the visitors batted Heston all
over the field and made over dozen
base hits. The latter's delivery was
very wild and many were given their
bases on balls. The visitors are credl-
ted with only four runs, three OF which
gave the Olympic the only run they
scored, while the home nine are credi-
ted witch thirty.four, Maloney, Heston,
White and Lamplugh, leading In this
respect, The most deserving good play
on the part of the Olympic, was diff
cult one hand running fly catch by
Turner at centre field. The game all
through was attended with but little
interest on the part of the spectators
and they were glad when 1t came to an
end. The visiting club is without a
doubt strong team and they play Q
good game. The were deserving OF
meeting a stronger nine yesterday. The
following Is the score by innings:
