Notwithstanding their diminutiye
size, pugnacity is one Of the most con-
spicuous traits of humming birds
Even kinGbirds and the boldcst hawlS,
are afraid of them, being compelled to
retreat before the imrctuous assaults
of the tiny warrior, whose boidncss Is
only cQualcd by the lightning-lilso
rapidity Of his movements, thus battling
any attempt ut resistance on the part
of the more powerful adversary. The
lancc-lil1c thrusts Of tho ncc,llc-lil,e
beolS are usually directed ut the eyes Of
the enemy. When two or moro indi-
viduals Of either Sex happen near the
same spot spirited and ufton violent
conflicts are almost certain to ensue.-

 Grifin's long running catch of high fly in the fourth inning was the star play of yesterday s game.
 Pitcher Woodcock of the Browns has been re- quested to join the Pittsburg club, and he will pitch his last game for Brown at Andover to-day and join Pittsburg in her game with Boston next Wednesday.
 Connie Doyle would like to again don a New Haven uniform and would like nothing better is every inch a ball player, and the home team might do worse than to secure him.
 With the Albany team, which plays here this afternoon, are Jack Doran and Charlie Brady, two old New Haven players. Doran will be put in to pitch and good game may be expected, as he will do his best to defeat the local team.
 Jay Faatz made himself very disagreeable to the occupants of the bleechers Jay, should re: member that it shows poor taste on tho part of player to make replies to spectators, especially when the player loses his temper and makes threats which he is not able to carry out. The Syracuse team should tender a vote of thanks to Umpire Jones for presenting them with three runs in yesterdays game by not calling Urquhart out when he was touched by Morrissey fully three feet off the base. Jones has made some rocky" decisions during his stay in this city, but that of yesterday was the worst of all. Catcher Urquhart of the Syracuse team should be called down and taught that man should be a gentleman on the ball field well cidedly those of a tough" and he should have been heavily fined and ordered out of the game. slid against Urquhart's feet whereupon the
 latter player viciously kicked Beecher while looked like fight, but the matter was finally quelled and the game continued: It certainly was 8 cowardly act on the part of Urquhart and fully deserved the misses and other marks ol dsapprobation which were showered upon him

ship.
 Major Mcclure, who few days ago is-
 sued challenge to fight Bryan Lynn with broadswords, states that the article which
 appeared in yesterday mornings News was
 in it's leading points entirely erroneous.
 He says that he saw Mir. Lynn's challenge in the Police Gazette and answered it from St. Louis, and offered to pay Mir. Lynn's fare there or come to New Haven at MT. Lynn's expense. Major Mcclure would also like 10 know where Bryan B. Lynn gained the title of champion of the world. Duncan 0. Ross was the first champion of the world, and held that title until defeat ed by Major McGuire on the Both of Octo- Der, 1887, just one week after he defeated Walsh on the same grounds. Walsh was Ross fighting partner for years, and they travelled together all over the United States, and fought battles under several assumed names, at Scranton Pa, San Francisco and other cities. As to McGuire's fighting Orlofski, Major Me Guire states that he never saw Orlofski at all. Major McGuire states that he can prove his identity and qualifications by 8 number of press notices in his possession, also sealed testimonials. He would also IeIer to the NeW York CEpper or Artnur T. Lumley of the Illustrated News, who is his packer. He refuses to have anything to do with Richard K. Fox, as he has con- stantly defeated every man whom Fox has put up against him and in consequence is hostile to him.
