part the run making by the home team was on

out Of the pitchers box and substituted Stein.
But it was too inte to lock the stable door; the
steed had been stolen and five runs had been
pounded out The change Kept the margin
from being increased, however, Tor the Ma
tionals made no more hits or runs. The WIS.,
itors. however, fell savagely on Gastrigbt's
shoots and made four hits, two OF them
doubles. But they were not quite enough.
Fully $500 persons were present when UNI
pire GafIney called play and the Brooklyns
took the field Hart and kinslow were the
Brooklyn's battery, while Gsstright and Milli-
gan oficiated for Washington. Hoy, by pa

kinslow's good right arm was too strong and

ardson helped him on to third by popping an
easy grounder down TO big Dan Brouthers. A
fervenr prayer was offered up as led Larkln

taken first on balls
One could see by Corcoran's determined
clutch Of the bat that he realized the serious
ness Of the situation. Catching low shoot on
the end Of the bat ne lifted it far out over the
crowd near the foul line and took second before
IL was returned. Kinslow sent him to third
by q sacrifice and Hart scored him by c long
hit to center.

to Hardie Richardson 1t was good for a
single and no more, but Hardie let it get away
from him and big Dan started for second

was grasping the bag, but Umpire Gaffney de-
cided him to be safe, whereat there were
loud remonstrances from all quarters. Griffin
now sent the ball out toward Howard Univer-
