with undying glory, because they
came so near to playing the game d
little bit.
Where our boys signally fail is in
throwing. The champions propelled
the ball with terrific force with ap-
parently little exerilon, while the
amateurs seemed to lose an arm with
every fling.
1t is tue, all the visitors perfection
is due to daily development of skill
and, after all, the boys did well in
making runs.
The general expectation was not to
see an extraordinary game, but rather
to see the champions and gain some
idea of professional ball playing. This
desire of the greater portion of the
audience was gratified during the 10
or 20 minutes practice which the
champions INDUCED before the game.
Next year, however, Manager Han
Ion will probably give US a rare treat
IN base ball by bringing two pro
fessional mines in the height of the
season and giving us an illustration Of
IAN irresistible force coming in con-
tact with an immovabe object
The people are indebted to Messrs.
j. II. Hitchins and w. B. Redgrave
for the pleasure of seeing the cham
pions, and unanimous vote of thanks
is due them fol the energy and pluck
they displayed in risking so much to
bring to our remote doors t. e most re-
nowned players of the game in the
world. In a manner the enterprise
was successful, inasmuch us the
management reports slight excess
over expenses, which is much more
than the weather promised early in
the day.
The word, Bang" which was so
conspicuous in conversation during
the day, has been carelessly inter
preted to read - BaltimOre amt no good, -
which, being more circumspectlyt trans
lated, reads Baltimore is bang up"
Before going into the cold and
clammy details of the game below, it
should be stated that the champions,
as with all who come to our mountain
city. We're loath to leave. SO they
allowed the scheduled train to go, they
remaining meanwhile until the regular
tram passed. During the interim they
visited Eckhart mines, plloted by
Mine Inspector Frank j. Mcmahon.

The Great Game.


The fine work of our home players
on several occasions last summer
elected some pretty strong words of
praise from the JOURNAL and Its cor
respondents, such as-''our boys are
approaching the professional STAGE"
and a great many other little flights of
a like character. But it is hoped the
spectators of Saturdays game will not
hold the scrbes eternally responsible
for their worthy but misguided con-
ceit. AS good backwoods, noun
taineer baseball club. our boys may
shine with considerable effulgence,
but as a professional nine they had
better go out of business and start up
some other home circle game, such as
''push pins" chop SCOTCH etc.
The Baltimore champions arrived,
as per contract, Saturday morning.
and more unpropitious outlook can
not we'll be imagined. A cold north
wester kept one thinking of every
thing else but a ball game, and
"slim day" was predicted for the at
tendance. But Notwithstanding the
unpromising and really disagreeable
day throughout, the ground was we'll
filled with an enthusiastic crowd, the
estimate of about 1900 being probably
the nearest to the actual number.
Upon arriving on the ground the
champions gave a very pretty ex-
hibition of what they are able to ac-
complish with the sphere should they
at any time be called upon to draw
upon their last resources, but at no
time during the game on that day was
their latent power brought out. In
deed, as far as their opponents were
concerned it may sleep on peacefully
forever.
1t is hardly necessary to give an
account of game by innings, as it was
a repetition of ground and lofty
tumbllng and frantic rushes after the
elusive sphere. The tabulated score,
hereto appended, however, will give
an adequate idea of the course of the
game.
Hoffer, Robinson. Clarke and Hem
ming kindly loaned their professional
aid to the efforts of the home nine,
but the presumed inspiration of THEN
presence only served to put our fellows
into a deeper and more deathlike
trance. In the case of Jack. at short
stop, such powerful cooperation seem
ed serious matter. Willie seemed tC
suffer from a bad attack of somnam
bulism, and his work was disappoint
ment to all his friends and admirers.

Political Meetings.

The populists held an open-air meet
ing in town Wednesday evening.
David j. Lewis led off in quite dc
cent speech Rev. Walter Vrooman
tore the old parties into shreds, and j..
Semmes Devecmon thrashed short
weights in coal and light weights in
newspapers until there is hardly
enough of the JOURNAL left to tell the
tale.

Lloyd Lowndes is booked for speech.
A whole raft of other orators, iHclud-

Listen to what the Mt. Carmel pa

Opera House Wednesday evening
next, ODD inst.
O'Hooligan's Masquerade occupied the
boards and the attention of the people at the
Opera House last night and made the latter
tred-with laughter. There wasn't a dry
minute in it. 1t was one of those side-split-
ting comedies that give you the sideache, and
it may be said truly that there are few such
in existence. The situations are funny in
the extreme and the jokes are naught but an
uninterrupted flow of wittcisms and jolities
The company is a strong one and its clever
and mertorious performances were heartily
applauded. The show came here without
the bombastc heraldinss that precede so
many aggregatons and the public was
dubious as to its character and as result only
a fair house greeted them. There is not a
stick in the whole show and a return date
would be appreciated
