terdny's Gamc-Other Ball News.
Had 1t not been for the heavy rain
about o'clock yesterday afternoon and
the continued threatening aspect of the
weather, the attendance at Island Park
would probably not have been less than
1900. Nearly everyone who takes any
interest in the great national game was
anxious to see the third game between
the Wheeling and Lima clubs, II being
the last championship game OF the Tri-
State League scheduled for the grounds
here till June 10. AS it was about 400
people, including goodly number Of
ladies, armed themselves with rain she'd
ders and brayed the mud and elements.
Having shown such an enthusiasm
they deserved better luck than they had.
At the end OF the fifth inning the rain
was again falling so heavily that the
game had 10 be called with the score
standing one to one, both, sides having
scored in the third, and the spectators
had to make their way home getting wei
and muddy and experiencing neither 9
feeling OF satisfaction over another vic
tory or one OF sadness over defeat
Under these circumstances the game wa
u very unsatisfactory one.
The players did not get much enjoy
ment out OF the game, for the reason
that the grounds were SO wet and slip
tpery. Sawdust was used literally anC
improved things somewhat, but abou
the home plate and at first base it wa
hard work to stand and play steadily
The runs were made us follows: VaI
Zant, the first man at the bat for Wheel
ing in the third, knocked out a ball tina
would have been good for three base
had he not slipped ut first and gone heat
over heels in the mud; the time lost b!
this made it impossible for him to &c
further than second. He was advanced
to third on an error at first, and wen
home on the pretty double play b!
Miller to Fuller to Hillery, that put on
Yak and Flanagan. For the Limas
Fuller scored on q hit, a steal, wild,
pitch and a base hit by Mcmillan. II
the fourth it looked as though Wheel
ing would surely score; Nichol and Del
ahanty were on third and second ant
only one man was out, but Brodit
fouled out and quick fielding cut OF
Stephens at first after he had hit on
what in fair weather, would surely hav,
been u base hit; it was the hardest kline
OF luck thatno score was made then.
Flanagan pitched the best hehas don,
this season he has not been well but i
now recovering and expects to soon b.
in the best ofcondition. Miller, for til,
visitors, also pitched a good ball ant
was well supported. None OF the error
made on either side affected the tina
result. One OF three charged to Staple
ton had to be given because OF a baC
decision made by Umpire Sullivan. Ii
the fifth inning while Flanagan was a
the bat, Hillery joined in with tn,
pitcher in complaining about Sullivan
i judgment on u ball. Sullivan warnet
Hillery to keep quiet, Hillery replied
"0hl you're way oil" ''rhat costs vol
five dollars" said Sullivan, and thu
crowd howled its approval.
The official score, furnished by Mr.
English, is as follows:

that justifies such a division Of profits,

will not be long before the payment OF
dividends will be resumed. 50 far as /

that taking the whole field cannot see
that investors in this class Of shares have

ENCOURAGE THE CIRCUsBs.,
Why They Give wheeling tho Go.by-Their

Value.
Merchants, hotels, restaurant keepers
and others whose business profits by the
presence in the city Of large bodies OF
transient visitors, say the presence Of
the circus Monday was worth thousands
OF dollars TO Wheeling. A smallersho
pays the public in proportion. The hay,
meat and provisions bought in day by
a modern show is also an item OF bust
ness worth having.
So far as known, Wheeling will have
no other circus this season. Old John
Robinson, who has q really excellent
show, gives the town the go.by. Bellaire
had one circus Monday and another yes
terday; third is billed for next week.
The reason the shows avoid Wheeling
is the high license charged here, which
with the unusual charges of other kinds
to which circumstances subject circus
here, is prohibitve except for larger
shows. One agent was here this season
who when he heard the expense Of ex.
hibiting in Wheeling, changed his date
to Bellaire. Another thought seriously
