viii We Ever Win2

Yesterday afternoon WAS bright and
beautiful, just the weather when one
ieels in good humor aud pleased
with most anything, and 1t WAS only
yesterday that we expected the Norfolk
"Clsms' to hold up the honor aud dig
}iiy OF the city, ,basebalicaily speaking.
put, alas, how soon the hopes of an
sxpectant public can be blIghted and
1ast in gloom. How soon can all of
sur fond dreams of victory be dispelled
AND leave us standing under bauuer
Apon which is plainly inscr ibed the
one word, 'Defent."
Yes. that Is the word that so aptly
applies just now to tho position Of the
Norfolk team III the race for the State
League "pennant." "Oh. well, the
boys will brace up after awhile aud
Strike winning gait" some are chart-
able enough to say. They are I'm
proving" say others, while the ma
jority of the lovers OF the game use
language more forcible than elegant
about the team, and loudly clamor for
tenn strong enough to WIN game
occasionally.
there was large crowd at the Park
yesterday 10 witness the game between
ihe 'Ciams' and the "Iruckers," and
the "Rooter' was IN his element, and
they were not scarce either, for both
cities were well represented by that
very necessary adjunct to the game.
Norfolk went first to the bat. Corco.

second on Purcell being struck with n
pitched ball, stole third aud came home
on HOLMAN, hit to centre field. For

O'Hsgan's error, Reed hit beauty to
centre field but dager 'squeezed it, &"
Joaues made single. Tate was thrown
out NJ hrst. Thurston hit a two bag.
ser aud Joanes scored on errors by
Corcuran and Whaley, Netter struck
out. Norfolk scored again in the fourth
snning ON errors by Fuller and Knox.
and again III the ninth when they mad g
three hits, which in conjunction with
swo Wild pitches by Brandt gave them
two runs.
Portsmouth tailed two runs in the
second on errors by McCreery and
o ingap, base on balls and a wild
pitch. Portsmouth added two more
guns Ia the fourth by Fuller going to
first on tielder's choice aud Har-
groves home run.
Ihe rest Of the game was uneventful
except tho part MIR. Mitchell. the um
pre-, took in it and that was quite ex
citing. Purcell was fined. put out of
the Gnmc and off the field in the first
'nning for "back talk" and not obeying
the orders of the umpire. O'Hngan

OPINION FROM PASTIME.
lie Believes That Judge Archibald Will BE
Called TO u Higher office

Colonel Il. j. Fitzsimmons, in his
"Pastime" column in yesterdays Sun
day News, paid the following tribute to
Lackawanna's able and courteous pres
ident Judge. II. w. Archibald:
"The immense and rapidly increasing
amount of work that yearly confronts
the justices of the supreme court has
been for several months engaging the
attention of the bar and judiciary of the
state. At the recent meeting of the bar
association of the state, at Harrisburg,
the subject was exhaustively discussed
and the conclusion reached was that an
intermediary court should be estab-
lished, the decision of which would be
final except In rare and exceptional
cases. In consequence a bill has been
introduced in the legislature providing
for such tribunal. Its passage Is said
to be certain. The bill provides for five
judges. They will be appointed by the
governor, one to serve for three years,
one for six. one for nine, one for twelve,
and one for fifteen. They will after
wards be elected for the term of fifteen
years. Four will belong to the major
ity party and one to the minority.
"Well-founded rumor says that Presi-
