of games between the Ross Club of Chester
| and the Houston of South Chester. The
game was called promptly at o'clock, with
MIR. Hoover of Philadelphia, a gentleman
well known in base ball circles as being
always fair and impartial, as umpire. The
| game proceeded along smoothly for three
| innings, the score then standing 8 to 4 in
favor Of the Ross. After two men had
| made their bases ON safe hits, Tiffany,
captain of the Houston, made q
hit to right, field on which two men scored,
| the last man having a very close slide for
it. The umpire's decision being called for
| he decided not out, at which Kits the
| Captain Of the Ross nine demurred to
such an extent that the game was stopped.
Kits loudly demanded the removal of the
umpire, which demand was refused by the
captain of the Houston. Kits then refused
| TO allow his men to continue the game.
The umpire then decided the game in favor
OF the Houston by the score Of 9 too.
