PoTTsVILLE, Sept 4.-The Anthracites
returned the compliment to-day In one of
| the best PLAYED games that has taken place
at Anthracite Park this season. The Wis
itors put in Henry to pitch again, and the
home team hit him for eight with total OF
IL bases. The Quickstep had evidently laid
off their batting clothes and only secured
lent fielding game, but their errors
were disastrous. Some wonderful
| fly catches were made by the home team.
The visitors battery were evidently over
worked for Henry made q wild and st.
Lawrence q passed ball. Grady caught
Blakely In tne form, having but one passed
ball which yielded but little. A very small
audience viewed the game. The score was
as follows:

HARRISBURG, Sept. 4.-The Brooklyns
succeeded to-day in giving the Harrisburg
the worse drubbing they have had this
season. The home team was thoroughly de-
moralized. The crowd hissed them and ap-
plauded the Brooklyns. The BROOKLYN hit
hard and earned eight runs. The Harris
burg played a miserable fielding game. The
