BASEBALL CHAT.

With trio Of scalps from the Sena-
tors dangling at the Giants belts, Capt
Ward will have his men in excellent
shape TO make the trip to Boston and
meet the second place lads on their new
ly prepared grounds next Friday. II
such a thing as winning three straight
from Boston could be brought to pass,
it would make a heap OF difference in
the percentage, and little club that
kicks UP the dirt IN the vicinity of One
Hundred and Fifty,,seyenth street and
Eighth avenue. would have a whole lot
to say about second place.
Camp will not come East after all
Cap. Ward has decided he doesn't need
the Westerner. and Camp will remain in
Sioux City, where he claimed they
yearned for him so much.
Trouble exists in the st. Louis camp
Late hours and drinking are the alleged
factors IN this affair. They. Invariably
are among baseball players.
Brooklyn will have hard work to cling to
sixth place to-day. as she meets Balti-
more on the latter's grounds. The
Clevelands, and II they lose the Spiders
will fell into sixth place.

Where the Women Gamble.

While the back paror, in which the
men gamble, Is almost entirely devoid
of furniture, the rooms on the floor
above are rendered comfortable with as
little outlay as possible.
The women who visit this place are
attired in all sorts of costumes, some
fashionable. others unreasonable and
shabby. Many are old faces, long famil
lar In the dives that formerly thrived
thereabout. and most of them are we'll
known to Proprietor Allen.
This is not the first venture In the
same direction, for he kept woman S
pool-roOm as an annex to his saloon at
South Fifth avenue and Bleecker street
until his murderous assault upon the
Italian whose maine vas used as Il cloak
IN running the place put an end to the
dive.
Nothing like luxury, or, for that mat
ter, even comfort. exists in the pres
ent ladies - room. There are simply'
u few chairs in the otherwise bare
rooms and the only man allowed in the
apartments is "Dannie," the handsome.

How Bets Are Made and Paid.

Bets are made by memorandum. Near
the percentage cards on the wall are
hung little slips Of paper, upon which
the man who tempts fortune as handled
by The" Allen writes his bet, jotting
down the posted odds and signing int.
tials. This slip. with the money, is slid
through the aperture in the left hand
window and is read of by the receiver.
After the race has been run voice be-
hind the other window calls out:
step up and cash in. Come. now.
Preference is given to "Dannie." the
messenger who transacts the business
OF the upstairs branch and acts as the
medium OF communication between the
women spectators and the cashier. On
an average about two of the women win
to a race. An Evening World' re-
porter yesterday saw si2 carried up to
the women's department after one race
had been run. which included stakes

men. 'Dannie' and Archie" had

Here is the way the Democratic party
stands in performance, as contrasted with
the pledges of its platform: "The latter
half of the silver promise yet remains to
be fulfilled. The promise as to the repeal
Of the TAX on state banks still stands where
Mr.. Cleveland's own friends placed it. It
ia vet possible to call a halt upon the
antics of the Protectionist doughfaces who
masquerade as Democrats in the senate,
and to force them to come back into the
party, or got out and take the conse-
quences." This vigorous criticism is not
from the New York Tribune, or the Mail
and Express, or any other exponent of
thoroughgoing Republ,canism, but from
an Atwood Democrat, Mr.. Henry Waiter
son in the Courier.Journal. Things have
come to a pretty desperate pass whom
Democrats the country over agree to throw
up the sponge. That is their present state
Of mind and they have no heart to deny
it. "Broken Pledges" says Mr.. Watterson,
