(Special 10 The Times.)

Louisville, KY, July 23-The Senators
did not have much trouble in winning from
the Colonies today, as they were aided
largely by the errors of their old comrade,
Jack Crooks.
Crooks three errors gave Washington
three runs, the ma rgin by which the Senators
won the game. Miller, Mcguire, Joyce,
and Cartwright also made errors which
aided in the run making, otherwise the
score would have been small.
Both Mercer and Hill pitched good hall.
Mercer was the only one who could hit
Hill effectively, while Cassidy was the
only one to make two hits off Mercer.
Charley Abbey received an injury in the
sixth inning which may keep him out Of the
game for some time. While at bat he was
hit in the left eye by one Of Hills swift
inshoots. He was knocked senseless and
when restored it was found an ugly gasi
had been cut. Medical assistance was at
once summoned and Abbey removed to the
clubhouse. 1t will be couple of days
before it can be determined whether he
is seriously hurt or not. as it is feared
that, like Nash, he may be troubled with
vertigo.
Belts was the Umpire and as there were
many close decisions, there was no end of
wrangling. The game was therefore long.
Mercer refused to keep out of the wrang-
ling and Belts fined him SIS with the

should Congress appropriate every
year the peoples money to support
a class of professors in the several
departments of Howard University

WHAT is THE MATTER WITH
FORTUNE?

Editor of THE BEE: Mr.. T. Tho
ma Fortune is man for whom have
always entertained kindly feelings,
and for whom l. have had occasion TO
speak many times in rivate and in
public.
But for the last few years he has
changed his attitude on public ques-
tions, and his estimate of public men
so "ften that | find it impossib e to
keep up with him, and am often at
loss to account for his conduct. He
seems to have special antipathy for
every colored man who has achieved
political distinction in the past, and
lampoons them numerically some
times in a democratic newspaper and
some times in his own paper. But his
special aversion seems to be Senator
Bruce. He seldom lets an opportunity
pass either to sneer at him or to openly
attack him. Only the other day his pa
per appeared with two editorials on
Senator Bruce, one of them commend
ing him to place in the cabinet, and
the other attacking him for not joining
AR. Astwood IN the TRADE which the
latter made in the heat of the canvas
against the republican party. He
seems to regret that MIR. Bruce
did not go with Mr.. Astwoo ,
into tine democratic party. l
now learn that the article in The
Age commencing Mr.. Bruce was writ
ten by the junior editor, and the one
denouncing him was written by Mr..
Fortune himself. In series OF letters
addressed to The New York Sun Mr..
Fortune never failed to shoot at the
Senator, and to conceal his purpose,
he Often associated the name of Mr.
Bruce with that of other gentleman in
his TRADE of abuse. Now what does
all this mean? What is the nature OF
Mr.. Fortunes personal grieva ce ?
That he has grievance and that it is
personal, there is no dou t.
/ Mr.. Fortune occupies a beautiful
lit le glass house, and it does not seem
to be the pat of wisdom to engage too
extensively in stone throwing.
think most Of us have heard of
men who have carried this sort of
thing too far, and have had their own
houses shattered as the result. The
colored press believes in fai play.
