JEwLERs VS.. oLorHIERs.

The game of ball between the Jewelers. and
Clothiers at the Quickstep Park yesterday
afternoon was one of the finest exhibitions
of batting ever exhibited on those grounds
With but few exceptions, every man that
picked up the ash would make from a one
base hit to home run. Foul flies over the
fence were SO frequent that the grand stand
contained no less than seven small boys
who had gained admittance to the grounds
by getting it when it was knocked over the
fence. More would have come in, no
doubt had there been more boys, 70 when a
long foul fly, over right field fence, was
knocked by H. Grebe, OF the Jewellers, game
had to be called TO allow The fielders to go
aud hunt the ball. Game was called
promptly at 8. 80 o'clock by shooting off
cannon fire cracker, the Jewellers going to
the bat. By very hard hitting aud several
telling errors on the part of the Clothiers
they made seven runs, but went out in the
next inning in one, two, three order. This
was due to the excellent pitching of j. j.
Duff. In the third inning five
more Iuns were scored, but were
again retired in the fourth inning without
making a run, although III. Ayers had
secured third, but was caught between home.
The last inning for the Jewellers netted them
four runs, which left them with credit OF
16 runs in the five innings. The Clothiers
made five runs in the first inning, due
principally to the heavy batting, although
the nine errors on their opponents' side ma
terially aided this result. In the second in
ming the OTHERS made six runs and
seven in the third, but were retired in
the fourth inning without a run, Moore
and Weller going out on a foul and Duff on
short fly. Their last inning gave them a
credit for four more runs or a total of 22
Errors after the first inning were not kept,
as the official scorer was unable to keep
track of them.
The umpire, Mr.. Beason, was ST. iCtly i'm
partial, and made but one decision that was
ruled as not according to Hoyle. That was
to call game for the purpose of allowing a
| runner to go back to get his hat which he
had thrown away while running to first
base.
The gate receipts will be used in the pur-
chase of liniment with which to timber up
the stiffened players, some of whom swear
they will never do it again.
