Last Wednesday night the Oper:
House was taxed 10 its utmost capaci
ty with people from all parts of The
parish. who came to witness the render
ing cfihat well known drama, .'Uudei
the Laurels," by the Omega Dramatic
Company. IL was an easy task TO
predict large crowd by The rapidiiy
with which reserved seats sold /; BE-
sides, the fame of The amateurs of our
sister parish had long before preceded
them, aud every one was looking for a
treat. We rejoice to say they were in
no manner disappointed
AT an early hour The crowd began
TO gather, and by the time the bell
tapped for the rising of the curtain.
every seat was occupied.
Every one of the troup acted their
parts so well that il is not necessary
to mention any particular actor. They
deserve all the compliments bestowed
upon them, and we know that our
people enjoyed it from the rise 10 the
fall of the curtain.
After the performance the light fam
tastic was INDUCED in for the rest Of
the night. A beautiful table was
filled with good things, and the appe-
title was well looked after.
We hope our Omega friends will
not let this he their last trip UP this
way. We have nice place now for
theatricals, aud there is no reason
why they should not make their visits
more in number and mol so far be-
tween.

Louisville at Cleveland.
10 the ninth inning, with the score stand
ing at TO 6 in favor of the Senators,
two men out, second and third bases oc-
cuped, three balls and two strikes called
on the batter, and 5000 roOters holding
breath, that lively, contentious, and alto
gether offensive parsonage Mr. "Mugsy''
McGraw slammed the ball into left field
and two black and orange Baltimores
scampered across the plate with the win
ming runs, and closed one of the hardest
games ever seen at National Park.
There We're a great many ifs in the game
II Selbach hadn't made a fool attempt to
steal in the fifth; If the same player had
not allowed Brodie's single in the sixth to
stretch into a home run: if MCGUIRE had not
had passed ball in the ninth; and it. bigger
and stronger than all the other ifs Mr.
Emslie bad been able To see more than one
side of the game and make an Impartial
division of bis many lop-sided decisions,
there might have been mourning in the
Monumental City, and JOY instead of
sadness among the fans of the Capital.
ALL KINDS OF BALL.
About the only consolation coming in
this hour of grief is that everybody had
bis mo - worth OF all kinds OF baseball
and the Champs were pretty certain
that they had been in game
Likewise, tough Mr Kelley that he
had been out of il, and also shy on several
large chunks of salary, unless benevolent
Mr.. Vonderhorst refunds ii contrary to
law.
The Baltimore partisans, who were out
in goodly numbers, were pretty well scared
and ready 10 give up the game half
dozen times, and when the score was tied
by their first runs in the fifth, were
happy enough at escaping a threatened
shut-out to compromise right on that basis.
There was one of the largest crowds OF
the season, the grand stand being packed
TO OVERLOOKING and nearly every open seat
filled
The home batters opened on Esper in a
lively manner and hit him in every turn, till
he was relieved by Hoffer in tn eeighth
and until McGraw hit the last pitched ball
the Orioles were not once in the lead.
COULDN'T FOOL THEM.
Mercer pitched finely at many points,
but he seemed unable TO fool the visitors
after the fourth inning, and fast as the locals
drew away they responded and closed the
gap.
There is no denying that the champions
are the gamest kind of fighters and moth
ing but great uphill work gave them the
victory, even with the assistanc eof Emslie.
The errors charged against Selbach and
Glasscock, a dropped fly and muffed
throw, We both gifts to Keeler, and
came in the third inning, where they did
not affect the score, but slow work by
Abbey in the fifth cost run.
Abbey, however, brought in the first
run by a timely hit, and captured four
dangerous flies.
The Senators put up the best team work

He Says He Did Not give Away the Fight to

Special Correspondence OF Gazette ana journal
Washington, Nov. rs. Quite num-
ber of the sporting fraternity who at
tended the Gym Bateman glove con-
test last Wednesday night at the Ven.
dome Club house, gave expression to
the belief that Glynn had "laid
down." and could have won the fight
if he wanted TO do SO. One of the
local paper's report Of the contest gave
much color TO the belief, as it was
openly stated that the fight was fake.
Glynn fought hard for seven rounds
and denies in an open letter to tho
public, that he ''stood inn with Bate
man's' hackers, and offers to fight him.
again with bet of $50 to $500 that he
can stop him in 10 rounds or box any
number of rounds for points. Glynn
in explaining his Knockout says that
when he had Bateman licked, instead
of finishing him, he took more notice
OF his friends who we're around the
ring yelling, and got good, hard
right hand punch on the temple which
floored him
