the famous Cuban Giants, who are recogn-
lied as the exponents of all there is to be
learned in base ball.
The game played yesterday was certainly
as good as any admirer of the national pas
time would wish to see. There were some
bad errors and great drawbacks, but on the
whole it was a great contest. One of the
Cubans said it was as good as the last Potts
vile and Jeanesville games in which they
played, put together.
Mr.. Setley-perhaps the name is strange.
Mr.. Setley is a young gentleman who halls
from Philadelphia and has of late been
member of the Danville base ball club,
which belongs to the state league. Mr..
Setley is a stranger, but the base ball en-
thusiasts say he owns the town and may take
away with him as a testimonial a part he
may select, with the exception of the street
paving, and that they wish to keep until they
can add a half dozen or more squares to it,
Mr.. Setley is a pitcher-our pitcher-and
he proved an eye-opener yesterday afternoon
There is not the slightest dOuot that had he
been given the proper support the visitors
would have been shut out. The score below
shows that eleven hits were made off the
gentleman referred to, but the score is thus
because the rules Of the game prevented the
scorers from charging errors to the fielders.
As matter of fact but four safe hits were
made off Setley, The home management
has decided to keep him here and see that he
gets better support on the diamond hereafter.
Much of the fielding on the home teams
side yesterday was, to use base ball parlance,
Every yellow" The right field was cholera
morbus colored, the centre field was not quite
as virulent, and the short stop was less so, but
there was a stiffness and awkwardness about
the three positions that would have broken
any pitchers heart. Pointedly, the right
fielder was too slow and two much afraid of
"hies," the centre field had not enough
India rubber in him, and the short stop
seemed indisposed. True, Fulmer made a
grieveous error by an overthrow at a critical
point, but that by no means lost the game.
The home team held the visitors down ad-
mirably throughout the game and held the
lead up to the first half of the fifth inning
Then the score was tied and they succeeded
in keeping it at that until two men were out
in the ninth inning when the right field
broke the spell by allowing nice "hy'
alight upon the ground. He waited for a
bounce, and got it.
setley was warmly applauded severa
times; Fulmer's bad overthrow was NOR,
than counter balanced by his general work
"Buck" McGettigsn guarded first base like
veteran and Reilly made several excelen
plays.
The home battery was really superior t
that of the visitors when Setley struck on
Harrison and Cato one after the other in tn,
sixth inning the crowd on the grand stand
went wild with delight. Fulmer tickled tn,
crowd in the start by hitting the first bal
thrown and reaching first. Grants running
catch in the fourth inning was warmly
applauded and ToOle received equal recogni
tion for a catch in left field, in the eight
inning. The most striking feature was tina
made by Grant. 1t was done with one hant
and on a run, with quick and twist tina
is indescribable.
