BOSTON, August 2S.-Captain Hanlon
could not play ball to-day but he urged on
his braves so that they played for dear life
and succeeded in taking the scalps of King
Kel's warriors in the most approved style.
There was not ANYTHING OF startlingly bril-
liant nature about the game but the Pitts
burgs got their victory by good honest work
and earned the game. The base hits were
not very numerous on either side but more
than half the hits made yielded two bases.
The pitching of Staley was the feature Of
the game and in no inning did the Bostons
get two hits In the third and sixth innings
the Pittsburgs punched their hits and scored
enough runs to win the game. Quinn and
Fields were responsible for the ethree runs made
by the Bostons. The former allowing two balls
to pass HIM when men were on bases while
Fields dropped fly in the sixth inning and
allowed Kelly to score. Corcoran put up
great game at short and Beckley made a
phenomenal record at first base. The score:

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TEE prsPArcH.t
wELLsvmLE, O., August 2S-The third day
of the fair was by far the most successful in
the history Of the association. The morning
was principally taken up with stock parades,
and exhibits of horses and cattle. This exhibit
could not be excelled. The weather was very
fine, and the track in good condition. The
events to-day were the unfinished $40 trot; the
postponed 2:35 pace; 255 trot; free for all pace,
and running race.
Belmont county took the $40 trot. 1t was
one of the finest races ever witnessed here DR..
l. took the last heat of the 2:S5 pace in 2:S4 AT
the end Of the third heat George Smith, driver
of DR.. L, was accused of pulling. and was taken
down, Charles Wilson. driver of Gypsy Boy,
being substituted. He drove DR.. L. just 10
seconds faster than Smith, taking the heat in
2:29A. This made the crowd angry, and had it
not been for the prompt action Of the marshals,
a free-for-all fight would have resulted. Miss
Agnes took the 2:55 trot very easily in one, two
three order. The free-for-all pace had six en-
tries. Owing TO the lateness of the hour, it was
postponed until tomorrow. after the first heat,

ranging rowing race between George Hos
mer, of this city, George Lee, Of Canada. and
John Largan, ex-champion Of England. The
two latter have been recently racing at New

but he would not give decisive answer. It is
proposed to hold the race within q couple of

place. The three men would make q good
race, and Hosmer would stand good chance
of winning. He will not have much time to
spare in training for the race, as he is with the
theatrical company with which he will travel.
Lee is in good hx and so is Largan. but Hos
mer is generally in good condition. He was In
