The Grays Defeated by Holy Cross
in Their First Game.
BOTH TEAMS PLAYED WELL.
The Fslvey Frazier Contest 1T the Glad
stone Club Results I'm . Draw After
Eighty-Three Rounds OF Scientific
work-YIinor Base Ball Games.

The raw easterly wind whistled through
the grand stand and across the bleachers
at Adelaide Park yesterday afternoon and
chilled the 900 spectators to the bone.
1t was the first game Of the season in
which the Providence Grays played a part
and the chilly wind had little or no effect
on the crowd which was there to see the
Grays perform as q whole and at the same
time get line on the men individually.
1t was a great game, all things consid-
cred. Ii was the first time the Grays had
played together and everybody agreed
that they did remarkably well. They had
as their opponents the Holy Cross College
who have been putting in hard work in
college gymnasium all winter long beside
having played several games already this
season. Johnny Stafford was In the box
for the visitors and. with very few ex-
ceptions. kept the Grays guessing. Petit
and Leighton got their eye Oh the ball for
couple OF singles apiece and Joe Horn
ung lined 1t out to the left field fence for
three boxes. Farrell also got in single,
but aside from these there was no safe
hitting.
Kilroy started in to pitch the game for
the Grays and for four innings held the
vi sitors down to five scattering hits, then
O'Connell was given trial and did good
work until the eights inning when the
college boys dropped" to his curves and
lined out four hits with a total OF six, and
a sacrifice which netted three runs and
won the game for them by the narrowest
possible margin.
"Sid" Farrar who is to cover first and
Freddy" Mack who is down on the
schedule for second base could not be pres
ent and consequently Petit was put on
second and Ryan and Pat Murphy alter
mated between catching and the first bag.
Up to the sixth inning the score WAS a
tie, 2 to 9. In this inning Petit led off
with single and Leighton advanced hi m
base with sacrifice. Then Joe Horn
ung pounded it out for three bases and
Petit scored. Hornung got to the plate
on an error of the catcher. In the same
inning the Holy Cross men scored a run
and the Grays were one ahead. In the
eighth the local team added another run
TO their score and it looked like a certainty
that they would win, but in this inning
the college boys made three runs making
them one ahead and won the game. The

The Brown Varsity played walkaway
game with picked nine from Fall River
Yesterday afternoon. The Varsity team
used the Freshman battery and found no
trouble in defeating their opponents.
This game was arranged for not twenty
four hours before the time of playing All
that can be well said OF it is that it was a
very good practice game for the Browns
before going to Worcester Saturday to
meet the Harvard nine. Mclean, 1913, of
Brown played with the Fall River boys
and did some very fine work, making
some very difficult plays. His chances for
the position on the Varsity team have
been greatly bettered since yesterdays
game.
The Fall River team did not seem to be
able to hit the ball at all, rarely placing it
innings:

- THE MAD RUSH BEGINS
Thousands OF Home Seekers Pouring
Into Oklahoma.

GUTHRIE, Okla, April 15.-Huge bon
fires blnxed from every hilltop to inform
the "boomers" campcd along the bord-
ers Of the Cheyenne and Arspahoe reser-
walton that the Presidents proclamation
opening the lands to settlement has been
issued, and couriers have been sent in all
directions to inform them that they may
enter the promised land next Tuesday
noon.
The line of the reservation 10 over five
hundred miles long and there is not a
mile of IL where are not from one to a
dozen camps of prospective settlers. The
homeseekers are coming from the North
and from the South by the thousand. All
races, nationalities and sects are repre-
sented.
The opening Of these lands will result
in a great political struggle, similar to
the Kansas Nebraska contest, though not
go gigantic or bloody. Oklahoma Is geo.
graphically in the solid South, but bor-
dering on Kansas and largely settled by
people from that State. The Republicans
have heretofore had q small majority in
the Territory.

He Explains the Plans Of the Medical Con
gress to be Held at Chicago.


A meeting of medical gentlemen has
been heldin Kingston, Jamaica. which
DR.. Hutchinson of this city addressed. He
is the secretary general of the Pan-Ameri-
can Medical Congress which Is to be held
ia Washington in 1893. The object OF the
meeting was to decide whether any action
should be taken by the medical profession
of Jamaica.
DIR. Hutchinson said that for several
years past it had been the belief of the
medical profession in North America that
the questions which had been arising in
that country, In South America and in
the West Indian Islands generally had
been assuming peculiar Importance
which rendered it necessarg that they
should be treated by represen tatives OF
the countries in which those circum-
stances arose. 1t has been thought best
TO bring all the members of tho medical
profession together at one time and dis
euss those questions and to interchange
opinions.
From 5000 to 1000 gentlemen are ex-
pected to be present at the Congress. The
transactions at the Congress will be pub
lished in five languages and twenty-five
volumes will cover them,
The medical men, at the conclusion of
DIR. Hutchinson's address and after some
discussion, formed themselves as an aux
iliary body OF the Congress.

"The Carnegie Company own immense
