About seven hundred persons went out to
the National Park yesterday to see the local
team take the second game from the new
Association team, which has supplanted Gin
cinnati. They were disappointed, for rain In
tcrrupted the match at the beginning of the
third inning, and not even the almighty voice
Of Umpire Davis could check It. To his
credit, however, be it said, he did the best
he could, and for some minutes after rain
had commenced falling so heavily as to pre-
clude the continuance of the game, he insisted
that it should go on, although players and
spectators alike were thoroughly drenched.
SO far as the game progressed it was pretty
contest and gave promise Of an exciting finish.
Profting by the experience of the two st.
Louis games, the local nine selected the last
inning, and sent the Brewer City lads first to
the bat. Duke generously gave Burke his
base on balls, but repented of his generosity,
and caught him mapping at first. Canavan
fell an easy victim to Hatfield, and Dalrymple
went out on fly to Murphy.
The second ball pitched gave Murphy an
opportunity to send bounding grounder to
Grimm, who fumbled it, and Lawrence Patrick
was safe. Hatfield made hit, in which
Murphy went to third and scored on Nc
fngtonian, however, threw wildly, and "Mac'
reached first. Hatfield lost his senses, for he
started to walk toward the bench and was
put out easily. Sutcliffe and Curtis flied out
to Burke and Dalrymple and ended the in
ming. After Murphy caught Earl's fly in the
second Duke struck Shoch with the ball. A
single by Grim and q couple by Carney sent
him over the rubber, and Carney scored the
second run for his team on Vaughn's force
and McGuire's bad throw The visitors had
men on third and first, with two out, when
Davis called the game.

Ihe Env1able Reputation Mr.. Walter II.
Johnston is Acquiring.
Walter Russell Johnston, for many wears
the noted organist of the Metropolitan
Church, in this city, is making for himself
reputation which places him among the lead
ing organists of this country. He recently
gave an organ recital in Troy which was
delightful treat for those who were fortunate
enough to be present. His selections were
Rossini's "Moses in Egypt" the overture.
"Pique Damue," by Supple: my Love and
~ song composed by Mr. Johnston, for
which his wife wrote the verses; Moszhow-
skis ''Serenade," selection from Bizet's
Carmen" and "The Last Rose of Summer.'
which was most beautifully interpreted. He
closed with his own arrangement
of ''Home, Sweet Home" In speaking of
the recital Troy paper said: stUnder Pro-
fessor Johnston's deft manipulation all the
powers of the instrument were exemplified.
and it was with regret that his listeners heard
the closing selections. AS an extempore
player and manipulation of the pedals Pro-
lessor Johnston has few equals. In beauty of
expression and the formation OF combinations
he is unsurpassed" 1t is TO be hoped that
he will soon be heard again in this vicinity on
his favorite instrument. Mr.. Johnston is now
the organist of St. Pauls Methodist Episcopal
Church of New York.

THE GENIUS OF BALzAC.
An AdmiriDg Essayist's Tribute to the
Great French Novelist.

An AdmiriDg Essayist's Tribute to the
Great French Novelist.
"Balzac's mind being irreproachably pure,
and his genius wholly valid, he was led to give
the abnormal exactly the same prominence in
the Human Comedy as 1t has in ma
ture; and his treatment and compre
hension of 1t was nowise inferior To
his treatment and comprehension of the
great and primal emotions. Balzac has
called genius terrible malady; he was quail
he'd to define it, But there is marked ele-
ment of health in all great work. Shakes
Peare's genius was unquestionably healthier
wrote the 'Sonnets;' Balzac's genius was un-
questlonably saner than any of his contempo-
raries, If we except Hugo's, and vet Balzac
wrote La File aux Yeux DOR La dern-
iere Incarnation de Yautrin,' 'Une Passion
dams lie Desert, 'Seraphita,' and .Sar-
rasine.' Therefore, it may be said that the
iinal achievement of genius is the introduction
and artistic use of the abnormal.n OF the pic.
torlal In literature, so much affected TODAY
and SO opposed to the human portrait-paint-
ing or Baizac's, he writes that "until the end
OF the eighteenth century literature and paint
ing We're separable arts; literature being oc-
cupied exclusively with thoughts and not con-
cerned with the folds of the dress, their shape.
and the tones they took in the shadow, and
sgaln the tones they took when the lady bade
her lover good-by, passing as she said the
words into the light of the lamp which stood
on small table, and whose pink shade was
clearly defined on the rich purple of the win
dow curtains. Until the end of the seven
teenth century women never shrieked and
sobbed amid the blue cushions of the sofa.
and Angelica had not stood in her ecstasy
looking through the whiteness of the rooms
His conclusion is that Balzac's empire is wider
than Shakespeare's; his subjects are more
numerous, and his sovereignty not quite SO
secure.

Ctncinnatis, then was ordered back to Omaha
by the board OF control, which caused him to
sulk and agree again to come to Washington,
has once more stepped on slippery ground
The order of the board returning Halligan
was pre-emtory, and the League Club of
Cincinnati seemingly acquiesced, as Halligan
did not play for several days after the order
was issued But on Tuesday the disputed
player reappeared with the Cincinnatis,
played his old position, and the League Club
says: "What are you going to do about it ?"
1t is but another case OF Leagueism, the big
club swallowing up the smaller clubs whenever
they see fit. 1t was and is a companion case
to the Kelly affair.
The baseball conference that took place here
last week attracted the attention of the whole
country, and the hope was expressed that at
last the two great contending bodies were
about to lay down their improbable warfare
and under the cover of a new national agree
ment go to the country under one common
banner OF baseball protection. The confer
ence was moving along auspiciously, when
like thunderbolt came the news that the
great Mike Kelly had sacrificed all of his old
time popularity, and In moment of weak
ness had jumped away from his associates and
gone into the enemy's camp. This action
brought all the deliberations to an end and
the truce of peace ended in a signal fasco
The Association demanded the return of
Nehy' Cne League uelegates refused point
blank TO have anything to do with the subject,
so the Association only had one recourse left,
and that was the breaking off of the confer
ence. 1t was unfortunate that the deal fell
through, as every one admits that under the
banner of an agreement the organizations
would succeed in a financial way about so per
cent. better. The Associations position was
honorable, straight, and of such character
as one would expect from an organization that
the older one had bounded since the season
began. They were willing to concede points
and to demand and to proceed toward a
basis OF compromise that would be iustifiable
under the circumstances. Their demands were
talr and square, and all they asked for was
hearing on the merits of the case. President
Young, of the League, was very much put out
over the bad turn affairs had taken, and so ex-
pressed himself to all. He was confident
a truce would be arranged before the end of
the present season.
