WOMEN AT THE BAT.
Married and Single Ladies Playing
Base Ball for a Church Benefit.

Married and Single Ladies Playing
Base Ball for a Church Benefit.
At Bradford, Pa, recently, a game
of baseball was played for the benefit
of the local church, in which the mar
ried ladies were pitted against the
single ones. Tho married ladies' bat
terry was composed of Mrs. Monroe in
the box and Mrs. Garfield behind the
bat, while Miss Donaldson and Miss
Bristle acted in similar capacity for
the other club, until finally Miss Bris-
tie ''bristled' up no longer and gave
place to Miss McCool. There were but
eight members in each club all of
whom wore long dresses, but no great
effort even with these facilities was
made to stop hot balls or catch decep-
tive flies. The toss was won by the
married ladies, who took the bat,
while the maldens went to the field.
Miss Bristle's curves, having the gus
set-like movement, were easily guaged
by Mrs. Monroe and Mrs. Garfield.
who each obtained good hit at the
sphere. while Mrs. Vogen's whack at it
brought them both to the home plate.
A muffed fly allowed her to score
when the next three strikers were out,
retiring the married ladies and bring
ing the maidens to the bat, amid the
cheers of the spectators. In the first
and second innings Miss McCool was
the only member OF either club who
played with the brilliancy worthy of
her sex, but in the second inning the
married ladies got their work in at
the bat, and before the third woman
was ont ten runs were added
to the score. From that moment the
fate of the girls were sealed, but though
the end was foregone conclusion they
did not lose heart, but fought to the
finish step by step. Miss Bristls being
knocked out in the second inning,
Miss McCool took her place with better
success. In the third inning only two
scores were made by the married
ladies, while for the single ladies it
was blank. About this time Mrs.
Monroe filed an objection with the UNI
pire to Miss McCoors curves. The um-
pire was q man, decidedly in favor Of
the unmarried female, and the game
went on. The batting became heavy,
and the sorces rolled mp alarmingly on
both sides. Supper time arriving, the
game was called at the seventh inning,
with the following score: Married
ladies, %; single ladies. II.
The husbands of the married players
stood by, intently watching the prog
ress of the game, no doubt uncon.
sciously associating the bat with the
proverbial broo,nstick. but. still elated
with the success Of their combating
spouses. while the bachelors smoked
their cigars in silence and viewed the
