THE Eclipse Of this city defeated the
Eurekas yesterday by a score OF 3 to 3.
The pane generally was very good,
and the colored boys showed of in
fine style, both at the bat and on the
diamond. As this was the first league
game played here it was very largely
attended and everybody expressed
themselves as being satisfied that the
Memphis colored club would win the
peunant. They play again today.
Game called at 4 pm.
A BEAUTIFUL triple play was made
by Nashville at Atlanta Tues lay.
@ inc opened the game by driving the
second ball tossed to center field for
two bases. Purcell then hit to third
for a single and Cline was compelled
to hug the second base. Hogan came
to the bat and Cline and Purcell began
playing we'll off. Hogan hit a hot
liner to Beard, who made Q phenome-
nal catch and then seut the ball to
second before Cline could return.
Bittman held the ball only a second
and tossed it to first before Purcell
could get back. The play was quick,
clear and distinct, and brought down
the grand stand.

LEAGUE.
Nashville Wins by n Scratch.
ESPECIAL TO THE APPEkL.l

NAa ~ hh1
ATLANTA, GA, July l5.-Nashville
won today's game from Atlanta by a
scratch and by reason of an accident
to one of the Atlanta's which came
near proving fatal in its results. The
score stood 2 to 2, with Nashville to
bat, in the eighth inning. Two were
out when Billy Taylor knocked a fly
over center field. Hogan started
back for %i',-unning at great speed and
keeping his eye on the ball in the
air. With hands up stu running
and Just as the ball had nearly
reached his hands he plunged blindly
into the fence around the inclosute,
forgetting about it in his eager run for
the ball. His head broke the paling,
which it hit aud pushed through to
the shoulders. He fell fainting TO the
ground, and his associates rushed to
him and found him badly wounded.
In the meantime. Taylor made Il
home run on this hit, putting
Nashville 8 to Atlanta 2. Hogan was
placed on q litter and taken to the
dressing room, where he received med.
ical attention. He was brought to his
room in the city and is resting easily
tonight. Doctors say no serious dam
age is done, and that he will be out in
a few days. The score by innings was
as follows:
Atlanta. 40 0 0 0 0 o. 9
