Base Ball Notes,

Inc new WOrlQ says:
The feature Of the game was a catch by
Selbach in the seventh inning. Mike Tier
nan hit to the right field crowd. The fielder
had just time to get to the ropes, lean far
backward and catch the ball. 1t was the
finest catch on the Polo grounds this year,
but Setback didn't get a hand. p
BY a vote of ia to 90 on roll call the Mas
sachusetts house of representatives voted
to adjourn yesterday afternoon to attend
the ball game.
In the first inning yesterday at New York.
when Hurst called a strike on Joyce, the
latter threw his bat on the ground with ter
rife force and squared his jaws at the UNI
pire. Hurst. however, quickly picked up the
bat and threw 1t to Joyce SO hard that Bill
resumed his position and struck out.
