though this is his first year in the League, he
has n very fair acquaintance already with
the hitters, and has succeeded in fooling the
best of them. He used to be batter himself,
before he entered the League, but he has not

not done much with the stick so far. He ex-

and in the spring of 1887 he was signed by the
Manchester team He pitched there that
season, and in the winter went to California
with the Philadelphia club. In the spring of
's he signed with Milwaukee, but he was
shortly after released on account Of a lame
arm. Then he went to Lynn and made a big
record Manchester bought him when the
season was about half over, and he played
out the year there, continuing his fine work.
Sullivan bought him last fall, along with Car
ney and Clark, his regular catcher. He was
married to a young lady of Manchester last

. French racing statistics state that during
the spring meeting ut Auteuil eighty-five
prizes were run for in seventeen days, and
that 4S5,fGO francs, or nearly 500, 900, was
distributed among the owners of successful
horses.

Nothing of the kind. The sunken chested
man slapped the spheroid mildly, Contortion-
ist Faatz skated out from first like n monkey
On n stick, made a grab, and then skated back
again, leaving ugly tracks in the mud The
history Of one such is the history Of all. That
was the way the game was played. Pfeffer
smote the bail a sickening smash, and its
directoire skirts went sweeping over the wall
That was tho first run.
The Infants followed shortly after with an
i'll gotten score, born Of an error and a two
base hit. They appeared not to be over well
acquainted with Hutchinson, the gentleman
Arson secured for the occasion to occupy the
box. For that matter O'Brien was a sur
prise to the home team. Catcher Sommers
made friends with him right in the start, but
the rest acted as though they were afraid of
hurting his feelings. The game hung on with
nothing extraordinary occurring until in the
tenth inning, when Farrell hit for a base and
Sommers followed with his second double,
that gave Chicago her winning run
The team didn't do much but stand cross
legged in the field and watch Hutch strike
out the enemy or stoop over and pluck up
the grounders from the mud holes at his feet.

Her club topsail, too, is a very large one,
and it will take a pretty large balloon jib
topsail TO fill the triangular space marked by
her mast and topmast stay, and the distance
from the bowsprit end into the mast. Those
who have seen the sloop Katrina will at once
see n striking resemblance in the hulls of
these yachts above the water line, and with
the exception of the long topmast on the Val
kyrie, there is much similarity in their sail
plans. Under water we know nothing of the
Valkyrie beyond hearsay, but 1t is under
stood that she is an improved Thistle-that IL
to say, Watson has not cut her forefoot away
so much as the big cutters, and he has given
her a midship section more like the Volun-
teer's.
To be more certain of her doing good work
TO windward Watson has fitted the Valkyrie
with n centerboard, which Lord Dunraven
says will not be used unless absolutely neces-
sary. Yachtsmen here say that unless she
beats the Irex more than she has of late, she
will need the centerboard over here in every
race.
This table of dimensions, which are very
nearly accurate in the case of the Valkyrie,
will prove interesting for comparison:
, 1889-06-23

Based on the calculation that the Katrina
is TO the Valkyrie what the Volunteer is to
tho Thistle, the result shows that the Val
kyrieis sail area, according to the New York
Yacht club rule, is 0,692 6-10 feet. This
would make the Volunteer give the Valkyrie
about ON. 0s. time allowance over a 40 mile
course, or 6m. 52s. over a 80 mile course
