OUT IN THE COLD.
The Boston Club Easily Defeats the
Quickstep-Bad Playing or the

tie down to Playing BalI9

The Quickstep club met the Boston
club yesterday afternoon on the From,
street grounds, and were shut out with
three runs, while their opponents easily y
piled up sixteen.
whether it was on account of there
being so many games during the week,
or whether our citizens are becoming
tired of going out to games and witness.
ing a succession of defeats for their
home club, there were only about six
hundred present yesterday.
1t is high time that the home club
was settling down to playing ball, for
ifthey do not, our people will become
disgusted and there will be very no
ticeablc falling off in receipts and atten-
dance.
1t is true that the clubs that havo
crossed bats with the home club have
been very strong ones, still that. does
not excuse the home team for their bad
playing. They have certainly had suf.
ficient practice to not make no many
glaring errors during the games. The
Athletic game was lost through errors,
the Cleveland club was allowed to pile
up rms through errors, in one instance
tworuns being made by single throw.
In thegame yesterday a number of err
rOrs were made but still the score ran
through heavy batting, as the Boston
boys are heavy sluggers. Let the home
club settle down to playing ball. The
score yesterday was as follows:
Quickstep 1000 002O o. 3
Boston 1OO22 l-16l

power Is truth first, last and all the
time, and we want to say word about
policy in buying. For example
build house of poor material and EN-
ploy unskilled labor, and when it is
finished you can sell it cheap, although
you cannot truthfully call it u well
built house hut, build house of the
best material and employ skilled labor
only, you cannot only say your house
Is cheap, but you can say it is a well
built house; or, build wagon, cover
the defects with putty, paint and var
nish, and II you will you may call it |
a well built and cheap wagon, and stitle
your conscience, while, with great
gravity, you inform your customer that
the wagon is made Of the best material
and that your motto is "quick sales and
small profits" and your victim, the
bargain hunter, will discover, in course
of time, that your word, like the wagon,
Is worth nothing. Then do not expect
to get tirst-ciass musical instrument
when you buy the inferior made and
low priced instrument. They are built
like the cheap house or wagon, OF in
ferior material and workmanship. We
feel it our duty to say here, in selecting
a piano or organ do not rely on the word
Of dealer in this city, who pretends to
pianos and organs, if he
can give no further proof of the fact
than mutllated instruments and brass
stencil made for him, in this city, with
which to mark instruments made by

The figures are bowers of
