MIR. HALPIN's HUsTLING CANVASS.


There Is better hustler for votes on the West
Side than Assemblyman William Hapin. the Re
publican candidate for Senator In the XVIII DIS
trc:. Mr.. Halpin made a clean record in the Legs
laturc. and although the district composed OF the
IXth. XIth and XIlIth Assembly districts Is natu-
rally Tammany. the conditions this year are favor
able to Mr.. Halpins election His principal OPP
ponent is the notorious Louis Munzinger. one OF
John C. Sheehan's most subservent retainers. the
treasurer Of the Tammany Pequod Club. and a
''handy man for the W.gwam all occasions.
Munz.ngers record laid bare when he was a
witness before the I.eXow Committee a year ago
He demonstra ted his usefulness to Tammany on the
wtnees-stani and as the collector OF contributions
mscellaneously levied upon Equor-dealers. gamblers
dive-keepers policy vendors and all sorts OF shady
and dlsreputabe characters who set up business
in the old XIIIth District. Munzngers plan OF
opera tons was solicit aid Of pecuniary nature
Tammany chowder parties. Pequod club reunions
and the like. But when asked TO tel who got the
money and what 1t was used for. Munzinger be-
came afflicted with lapse of memory
II does not likely that the voters OF the
XVIII District will elect man OF Munzngers rep
u;atlon to the Senate when they can vote for VIII
lam Halp!n The State Democracy has a third can
didae in the fed in that district in The person OF
ex-Supervisor Thomas Costlgan. Self,respectlng
Democrats who do not cast their votes directly Tor
Mr. Halpn to beat Munznger Will probably vote Tor
Mr. COstigan.

large number of people went to
the Baseball Park yesterday afternoon
expecting TO SEQ Portsmouth redeem
herself and at least give Lynchburg u
bard tuBsle for two out of the three
games, but they left the park III a sad
and disguised franc of mind. Brandt
and Mkennu were the opposing pitch q.
ers and the game started in nice style.
Portsmouth was blsnked in her fret.
ana Lynchpurg scored on base on balls,
passed ball aud Orth's single,
Pop" late set the "rooters" wild
IN the second by putting beauty over
LETT field fence, but the next three men
were easy outs and when Lynohbur
took their fourth tho score stood 2 to /
In favor of Portsmouth, as Jonues had
scored in the third on single, Pop"
Iates hit, and wild pitch. In Lynch
burg's fourth, after two men were out,
Leahy singled and went to second on
Ihurston's error of Plock's high hy.
Mckenna got his life on balls aud with
tho bases full, Ferguson hit an easy
one to Knox, who fumbled aud Leahy
scored, and it would have been we'll
enough had it stopped there. but while
Pop" was scrambling for tho ball that
Knox had thrown him, Plock, Mo.
kenna aud Ferguson started for homo
and In his hurry to catch the runner at
third, threw the ball way over Fuller's
head and the above named gentlemen
just continued their journey homo,
and when the third man was out, four
more runs stood to their credit. This
was very liberal act on the part OF old
Portsmouth, and Lynchburg appre-
ciated it acooi dinghy. Brandt had been
pitching gilt edged ball and had speed
TO burn, but President Brady thought
1t wise to take him out of the box aud
80 substituted Foster, who succeeded
in blanklng the visitors during the re.
mainder of the game.
Portsmouth had n chance to win out
in the ninth, with three mon OH bases
and one out, but the desired hit was
not forthcoming nnd thus LynchburR
was presented with another game. An
accident occurred in the fourth inning,
which was very much regretted. Scha.

burg team, in attempting to steal sec
ond base, broke bone in the fore
finger OF his right hand and had to re-
tire from the gume. The playing of
Fuller ut third and Thurston in left
field were the features. together with
the work of all three of the pitchers.
