THIRTEEN INNINGS
Remarkably Clever Exhibi-
ton by Amateur Ball
Players.
THE ARcANUM's RACES.
Winners at a Bowling Tournament
-Barry's 0uting-To-night's
Pool Match-stevens Plays
Good Tennis.

The amateurs are capable of playing
fast ball, and in several of the contests
this summer they have played games
that would lave been a credit even to
professionals. An example of this was
given by the Monrnouths and Atlantics
on Tuesday, when these teams fought
through an exciting thirteen innings be-
fore the decision could be reached. Then
only was the victory gained through an
unfortunate error of Catcher McLaugh-
lin, who allowed a ball to slip past him
when there was a runner on third base.
This was the only error of the game a
remarkable record for players of sixteen.
The teams were closely matched and the
result does not prove that the Monmouths
are superior, as the victory was an ac-
cident. In hits the Monmouths had one
the best of it, but the Atlantfcs nae two
earned runs more than the winners. In
the first inning the Atlantics slugged the
ball for three runs. The Monmouths fol-
lowed suit in the second, but the At
lantics punished the leather In the fourth
for five, and the Monmouths only got
two. The latter worked hard but failed
to get a runner home until the seventh
when they tied the score and assuned
the lead in the eighth with a run. They
made two more in the ninth, but the
Atlantics spoiled their chances with three
runs, which placed the teams even once
more. For three innings not a run was
scored, but in the thirteenth Nettensen
made a hit, stole second and went to
third on Johns sacrifice and home or
the passed ball with the winning run af-
Ter two were out. Score

How to get together on the vice
president matter seems to be the
great question Of the day. Mr..
Williams the leader of the middle
of-the-road Populists has prepared
an agreement which is being con-
sidered by the different committees.
1t provides that the electors be
equally divided between the Demo
Gratis and Populists. The Democrat
ticket to be headed with Bryan and
and Sewall and the Populist ticket
Bryan and Watson and the same
electors to be on each ticket. The
agreement provides for the selection
of a committee which is to ascer.
tain Immediately after the election
which Of the two tickets has receiv.
ed the most votes and if it is ascer.
tanned that the Bryan and Sewall
ticket has received more Of the
popular votes than the Bryan and
Watson then all the electors shall
vote for Bryan and Sewall and if the
contrary is found to be true then all
the electors will vote for Bryan and
Watson.
Some satisfactory arrangements
must be made and this agreement
provides for the majority to control
and possibly will be satisfactory.
