LONDON, April THE Prince and
Princess Of Wales, accompanied by their
elder son, Prince Albert Victor, started
for Holyhead this evening en- route to
Dublin. The Duke Of Edinburgh, Duke Of
Cambridge, Princess Louise, and ether
members of the royal family, together
with large number OF distinguished
persons bade the party farewell at Eustou
station. Although the departure was
made as private rs possible large crowds
gathered in the streets outside the station
and heartily cheered the royal tourists.
At a meeting of the National League at
Dublin to-day Messrs. Healy and O'Brieu.
members of Parliament and other promi-
nent Nationlsts denounced the l0yalist
hunkeylsm, as shown by the extensive
preparations made in Dublin and other
cities and towns in Ireland to welcome the
Prince and Princess OF Wales. In speak
ing Of the prOfuse decorations which
adorn the principal streets in that city
they suggested that the Dublin corpora
tiOn should close the roads along the pro-
posed royatrOute.
HEALY RAISES SHOUT.
Mr.. Healy, who presided, said that the
Prince Of Wales was coming ostensibiy
to see the condition Of the country. 1t
would be better if he visited the huts of
the evictedfamiies whom the League was
supporting instead Of piculcking at land
lords houses. He (Healy) regretted that
the gentleman destined to be King Of
ireland great uproar aud shouts Of
''neyer" should be 80 ignorant OF public
feeling in Ireland as TO visit Dublin
Castle, and thereby cause Irishmen TO
attribute to him desire TO prop up Earl
spencer's filthy sceptre and whitewash
Dublin Castle, and to connect him the
Prince) with the murder of joyce and
Hayne. Mr.. Healy concluded by assur-
ing the Prince that while wishing him q
pleasant voyage and plenty ofamusement,
bis visit would leave no political effects
whatever.

"BUsr ED, BASE BALLIsTs.
Miller Drops Two Games, Lots OF Money and
the ChEmpionship to Huron

Miller Drops Two Games, Lots OF Money and
the championship to Huron
1t is rather an unpleasant task to write
ones own obituary notice, but in this In
stance it is probably better than to allow
some unmerciful wretch to do it for us.
SO We shall relieve ourselves aud may be
the reader by making it brief. As per ar.
angement the 4 uron and Hand County
base ball cluLs appeared on the Huron
grounds Tuesday before an audience Of
about 500, and after hard fought battle
Huron won the game by one score, 13 to
IL. The game was very close and inter
esting. Huron did good field work against
the heavy batting Of the visitors, while Il Q
latter may we'll say they lost the game
through their miserable errors at critical
moments. DR.. Allen, Of Wolsey umpired
the game very fairly. Burdick, the Hand
County pitcher did splendid work and had
he received even little support would
have won the game. Very close to 81 900
changed hands on the game.
The Millerites were net satisfied to al
low the matter to rest thus, with one game
each, and proposed to put up another
800 purse, and decide the matter in a
third game, which took place the next
morning. This game was also close and
exciting. and seemed TO be fairly won by
our boys, but fate ordained otherwise.
and resulted Is to II in favor Of Huron.
For our excuse of defeat in this game we
need scapegoat, and very readily find
one at hand in four rank decisions Of
Bunck Sechler, the umpire, of St. Law
renee. One. was a fair base hit by Young
which he called ioul, the second was a
foul tip off BeeEcti's bat. and neatly
caught by Lansing, which lie called zone
strike, ;" the third was foul hit past third
base which Inschoe fielded out side the
di.mond, allowing a run. and the fourth
was an ont at home plate. which lie called
safe" and gave the winning run. Thus
was our goose cooked in the second gamS
after having ii won. Huron may nov
claim the championship with better grace
than they have heretofore. They have
won two of the three games played thi'
year. O1e singular coincidence noticed
/ in the three games was that they were al
decided by one score, the first being il
favor of Hand comfy by IA to 13, tn,
Others to Huron by l3 to IL and Is TO II
The clubs are evidently evenly matched
and victory for either is liable any tim,
they play.
Quite large delegation of Millel
citizens accompanied the boys and did al
In their power TO encourage our boys t.
victory.
