Feather-Weig Fighters.

The prize fight between Saw Of this city
and Kelly of Wilmington for the feather
weight championship of the District came
off last night, and proved victory for the
latter, who outclassed the Washington boy
both in weight and science. Saw weighed
elghty-six pounds. while Kelly tipped the
scale at ninety-eight. The greatest secrecy
prevailed, and but few were present On each
side. Saw. who looked like a midget beside
his opponent, opened hostilities and planted
his left squarely on the Wilmington lad 8
proboscis. bringing the claret. First blood
was claimed and allowed For four rounds
the boys kept up warm pace. Then the
superior weight of Kelly began to tell, and
SAWS seconds threw up the sponge, as they
saw 1t was useless to continue the battle.
On Monday night the Eureka Club will
pull off the fight between Bateman and
Glynn for the lightweight championship
of the District of Columbia. At former
battle between these men Glynn got the de-
cision. and since then Bateman has been
trying to get on a match. Both men are
training hard for the fight, which promises
to be a hot encounter.

enders vanquished one Of the leaders at
base ball.
Fully three thousand persons were on the
grounds when Umpire Hurst called play"
but not three hundred were sanguine
enough to expect a victory, especially as
Cleveland had Cuppy in the box against
Petty for Washington. The home team ad-
vanced first to bat and scored twice in their
half of the inning. The Clevelands tied the
score, but in the second went one ahead
After two were out in the sixth Washing
ton evened things up by scoring another,
and followed it by two more in the eighth
The Spiders did likewise and again the root
ers shook. All doubt was removed in the
ninth. for the Schmelzites showed three
men around to the home plate, while Te-
