In a line. Leila strained her eyes to watch
every movement of black and white, Mr..
Willoughby's colors. Mazeppa fidgeted and
caught at the bit. There was some little de-
Law, then the flag was dropped; they were
off. At first breathless silence, then growing
excitement. The course was small one, and
the race was to be run twice round.
Mai. Arburton who had not taken part III
il. uttered a THANK Godw as MaZeppa
passed the dangerous corner in safety for the
first time. Blues to the front; no, yellow
pushing up; no, that's Meldon. Stick to it,
Meldon. Willoughby'S passed him. By Jovel
he's got his work cut ont for him with that
horse. Now they're neck and neck. Good
race. No, Willoughby's gaining; no, Meldon.
no-by heavenW
A scream from one of the ladies, general
CONSERVATION in the grand stand, sudden
cessation of interest in the race Charlie
Willoughby rode to win, but the providence
he had dared revenged itself on him. Ma
zeppa had forced the bit between his teeth,
SHE'D away from the course and, leaping the
frail protection of hedge which separated it
from the side of the hill, had disappeared
with his rider.
st was a narrow shave, and no mistake"
said Charlie Willoughby, going over the story
for the hundredth time with his wife the sec
ond month of their marriage
"But the best part of it all was when
knelt down beside you and would not leave
vou," laughed Leila. Il shall never forget
Maj Arburton's face, nor his words next day
when he,told me all was over between us, and
that the best thing could do, after having
made such an exhibition of myself, was to
marry that young puppy"
NO" said her husband tenderly; 1.-THE best
part of it all was that rode to win, and that
did win-what | most wanted-my WIFE

mckeesport Drawing Away From All Rivals
In the County Race.

ESPECIAL rELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcHi
MCKEEsPoRT, August l0-McKeesport
easily defeated the Keystones again to-day,
although they put up better game than yes
terday and Douglass pitched good game, but
was badly supported by his catcher, Thompson
Miller. Hartman and Gibbons made some ygon-
derful fly catches. Bell, of the Keystones, also
caught good fly back of third base Costello,
Roy and Provins batted very we'll Pennington
and Smith were the battery for McKeesport,
and did well. Smith pitched last Saturday
for the home club, but had no con-
troll of the ball and could not use
the drop ball Pennington caught very
well, and with practice will make good man
for the home club. McKeesport has no one to
fear except East End Athletics for the cham
picnship, and when they play them next month
they will be in better shape than now
Homestead would have been up in the race
II they had been in shape early in the season.
Mckeesport will most likely secure Boyd, of
the Scottdales, and will then have a good
catcher, and they now have Phillips. Smith
and Pennington as pitchers, and several others
to be tried; Boyd and Hartman as catchers,
Quinn, Costello, Nightengale, Hartman and
Martin for the infeld, and Morissey. Gibbons,
Provins, r Smith and G. Smith for the out
field. and Torrenson may be able to play before
the season ends; so the club will soon be in
good shape again. The following is to-day's
score:

HART WILL STAY WITH BOSTON
Until Mex, Year, When He viii Join spaId
ing's Aggregation.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsfArcH.l
CHICAGO, August 10.-Manager Hart has no
intention of resigning the management of the
Boston club. He will play the string out unless
something of still more unpleasant nature
turns up. 1t is safe to say, however, that he
will be on A G. Spaidings pay roll after No
vember !. 1t is not known that any positive ar
rangements have been made between the two.
but it is thought to be practically settled that
Hart will enter Spalding's employ at the end of
the present baseball year. Hart has been under
engagement with the Chicago ball magnate be-
fore to the entire satisfaction of BOTH and it is
not at all unlikely that he will have charge of a
great portion OF Mr. Spalding's widely branch
ing business
The Billings telegrams have not raised any
particular disturbance among the Boston play
ers. They have no more fear of the rarting
director than they had before, and will act on
the advice OF President Soden to play their best
and win all the games they can. This comes

How They Stnpd.

The League pennant race is probably more
exciting now than it has been this season. Bos-
ton and New York are fighting like demons,
and SO are Philadelphia and Cleveland, with
Chicago close up. The Hoosiers and Pitts
burgs are having a neck-and-neck tussle Chi
cago has not improved much during the week,
Cleveland is steadying down again, and the
Giants are bracing up. At present the race
looks as If the first four will fight it out. The

the latter succumbed after desperate strug.

grand form and was magnidcentiy supported,
with the possible exception of Latham, who
played very indifferently. Wonderful coaches,
brilliant stops and pretty hard hitting charac-
terized the game. in which Duffee, Corkhill,
Mccarthy, O'Neill, Comiskey and Burns dis
tinguished themselves. Comfskey's all-around

About the LiRhtweights.

The lightweight bruisers have apparently
gone. into obscurity. Not long ago we were
almost talked to death about Meyer, McAu-
life, DAILY, etc. Now we can never see their
names in print. To great extent there is a
cause for this The public has not forgotten
the affair between Meyer and McAuliffe. At
the time of their fight I ventured the opinion
that their encounter would do much to iniure
the success ofpugilistic contests. 1t was one of
the modern farces which have been SO numer-
GUS lately. Since that affair both men have to
a great extent disappeared from view. The
lesson ought to have good results and tend to
prevent repetition of the Meyer-McAuliffe
affair.
