A writer says that in 1885 the fol-
lowing will be the may base ball news
and sporting notes will be dished out
to the public.
There was glory enough for one
day at the ball park yesterday. The
Chicagos did up the New Yorks to
the tune of 7 to 0. Welchy Mick
handled the pitchers gun for the
visitors, and though he tried all his
arts of slow fire, twist bore, ricochet
shot and decorating cartridges, the
Chlcsgo sluggers found the ball and
frequently sent it were the New York
felders could not find it. Mick was
so wild in his aim at one time that
the ball struck the umpire's turret
and made a crack in the heavy iron
plate. Had it struck the glass out
look Umpire Sonnyferg would doubt
less have been killed. The Chicagos
won as they pleased, having only one
error charged to them, and that an
excusable one by Burrins. Hanson
caught one of Mick's hot balls on
bis bat, and just as everybody
thought it would slip up over for al
foul Hanson gave a quick turn to the
lever of his batting machine and the
ball was sent swooping high in the
air over the center fielder's head.
O'Rrourrke started for the ball, with
his e~iectrometer showing highest
possible pressure, but before he
could osertake it and shoot it in Han
son had driven his machine the
three-quarter mile circuit of the
bases. Sonclark also made a home
run, while Phephfer made a two
base hit. Goer and Seventhday ex-
celled n base-running, having per-
feet control of their machines, and
displaying SPLENDID judgment. Flint
silver did great work behind the bat.
This player does not remove his suit
of mail and iron catching apparatus
when he runs for d foul fly, and the
giant strength he thus displays is 8
