BASEBALL CHAT.

The annals of baseball do not show a
game in which a single player on either
side figures as a factor in winning to
such an extent as did Amos Rusie in
yesterdays first game at Chicago. A
closer game has rarely occurred be-
tween the Colts and the Giants. An
sons whole anxiety is to prevent New
York finishing second. and In this he
has the support of his entire team and
the Western rooters, to man. AS may
be conjectured. therefore, Chicago Is
playing ball for keeps. Against this,
take Rusie's work. In the box he was
invincible, being found for five scattered
hits only. and striking out five men.
Ills homer scored the three runs which
won the game, while two men were out.
And in the last inning. when everything
was apparently falling apart, his right
hand stopped two sure things" and re-
tired the Ansontes: All this was with
out any support from the spectators
and in the face of Jeering and sneer-
ing mob, which did its best to rattle the
Hoosier. Carpers Will say 1t Is mat
ter of circumstance only that so much
of the play should fall to the lot of any
one man. This may be true, but when
so much of IL comes one mans way, 1t
Is well to have such a man as Rusie in
the path of Its orbit.
That kick of Boston's to have the
Louisville game thrown out was a sort
of boomerang The wide gap of twenty
eight points may be noticed between
the Giants and the Beaneaters, thanks
to the jealousy of the latter.
New York has ten more games to
play, and Baltimore has twelve. The
orioles will have to drop four games
and the Giants to win two in order to
even up the standing. Stranger things
than those have happened, and the PEN
nant Is not altogether out of sight.
Dad Clark was not a bowling sue
cess yesterday. Meekin and Rusie are
simply wonders.

for women, bicycling is an exercise in
which they may indulge with perfect
security and generally with much ad-

are as little prone to excess in athletics
as are the generality Of men, and within
reasonable bounds we should like to see

Ended In . Laugh.

For repeating to General Butler, then
in command Of the Army Of the James,
a disparaging remark made by subor'
dinate concerning the generals military
efficiency an officer in Pennsylvania
regiment was promised sound thrash
ing by the officer whom he had reported,
and who, in consequence, had suffered
q bad quarter Of an hour in the gen
erals society. The thrashing was to be
bestowed after the war was over, at
their very first meeting, no matter un-
der what circumstances it might occur
The two officers became prominent
civilians In adjoining states. For many
years one Of them went around armed
with a revolver, the other with a blank
bail bond. Though often in this city
(where one Of them resided at the same
time, they never met until last Saturday,
and then they encountered each other
face to face in the surf at Atlantic City.
Each had grown so stout as to weigh
over 250 pounds, yet they instantly rec
ogniEed each other. Something ludi-
crous In the thought Of such vast spheres
Of flesh engaged in a rough and tumble
fight may have entered their minds at
the same moment, for they called each
other by name, smiled and shook hands.
The feud was thus terminated. -Phila-

She Was Warm.

The incident occurred while party
Of strangers were being taken through
the Chollar workings In the party was
a girl-an innocent little thing, whose
knowledge Of mines was limited to a
few vague impressions acquired through
reading and hearsay. She had only one
vivid recollection, and that was that
mines are hot.
The party was mixed, and the gentle
men, as usual, carried lanterns. As 1t
was also large, when preparations were
made to 20 down the incline the guile
less creature aforesaid and another lady
and gentleman were all assigned to the
lower seat of the giraffe. After the
giraffe started, to further the general
comfort, the girl slipped down at the
feet Of her companions and found seat
on something the nature Of which she
did not stop to investigate.
A short way down the incline she re-
marked that it was getting warm. Far
ther on she repeated the observation,
and her companions responded that they
had not noticed it, while the miner who
had the party in charge assured her
that the incline was supposed to be
cool. She continued to call attention to
the heat, however, to the surprise OF
her comrades and their guide, and at
the station she scrambled out Of the
giraffe, exclaiming:
"Whew, but it was hot in there"
The miner was mystified; but, casual
" looking at where she had sat the
light dawned upon him, and he electri-
fed the innocent little thing and the
rest Of the party by dryly remarking;
