When 1t wasn't raining at Eastern Park yes-
terday the outtelders were lost in u heavy mist,
and at times even the other players couldn't be
soon from the grand stand owing TO the smoke
from the locomotives passing the ground. Two
games for ono admission attracted about ! 800
persons, n rather small crowd. but undoubtedly
the threatening weather kept many away from
the games.
Those who did see, the games soon forgot all
about the weather. for they witnessed two con-
tests brimful OF excitement, and as the home
players won both the crowd felt somewhat
elated. The first game was OF the see-saw kind,
heavy batting being the rule. Hawley, had little
hrst three innings. only. one man hitting the ball

"Pink In the fifth and sixth innings, but not
until the eighth was the victory secure. In the
latter inning a base on balls, four singles, and
two doubles brought four players across tho
plate.
The Pittsburgs had some real hard luck in tho
seventh inning. when only two runs were
balls, Merritt and Hawley filed the bases by

no ono out" But Harry was mistaken, for the
visitors were retired Without a run. Donovan
hit to shindls, who threw Brodie out at the
plate, and on Padden's third strike Alex. Smith
caught Donovan mapping off hrst. The score:

YACHTING.
Charles A. Sherman suII Has Confidence In

Charles A. Sherman stu Has Confidence In
the Mono.
Not more than half a dozen yachtsmcn from
tho a-Corinthian Yacht Club were in
evidence at the international races for the hand
some challenge trophy which were smiled on
Lake st. Louis. Among those present, however.
was Charles A. Sherman, Secretary of the Race
Committee, who returned TO this city on Satur-
day. and arrived at his office yesterday. In an
Interview he said:
1.-The yachtsmen across the border are most
hospitable and generous. 1t is almost II pleasure
to be defeated by such thorough sportsmen. I
have no complaint to make as TO the result of
the races. except that l am sure our boat would
have made q better showing had the wind been
something less than a hurricane.
There WAS q great deal in those races upon
which we can congratulate ourselves. the most
important being, possibly, the Improvement
shown by Designer Crane in the lines of the
Mono as compared with I'll Heirie, the half-rater
which was beaten last year by Glencairn /. Dug
gan Is unquestionably one OF the most able do
signcrS or small boats In the world, but the
showing made by the Mono brings young Crane
pretty well In the van.
" Both boats are similar as to type. the differ.
ence between them being one Of detail rather
than principle. 1t was through this detail, nsso-
ciated with the heavy breeze, that the Canadian
won, but | still believe that Mono can beat The
Glencairn III, in a breeze that permits the boats
smooth sea.
MI: Crane lourneyed to Dorval after Glen
cairn l. captured the cup at Oyster Bay last
year and came to the conclusion that light
winds were more prevalent. He therefore built
the Mono for those conditions. AS you know.
we had gales and a short and choppy sea, very
different from what wo get on Long Island
Sound"
Referring to the subject OF another challenge
for the cup next year. Mr.. Sherman said:
We would prefer that some other country
should be heard from first. as we want tho Sea
wanhaka Cup to become everything that It's
name implies-'an international trophy There
10 little chance, however. that Il year will slip by
without another series OF races for II. for Ii no
other challenge is received before the thirty days
have expired, 1t would not surprise ne II an.
other effort to regain the trophy would be made
by our club"
There Was some talk yesterday among yachts.
men along the Sound Of a challenge being framed
and sent from one OF the yacht clubs on the Con.
~necticut shore. Nothing definite. however,
could be learned in reference to the matter. ex.
cept that, rather than sec the Royal st. Law
renee Yacht Club in undisputed possession of
the cup, u syndicate would be formed. and that
one OF our most noted designers would be com.
missioned TO construct a cup chaser.

will be between forty and fifty people
upon the stage. introducing plantation
revels, jubilee singers, cotton pickers,

many specialties before the footlights,
especially in wing and buck dancing.
A large amount of special scenery is
carried by the company, and a carload
of stage fitting. AT noon there will be
a parade of the company's picaninny

ION last Monday evening, at about
I O'Clock, as Chris. Sorenson, the
butcher, was returning from his de-
livery trip into the country, and when
he had reached Robbers Ravine, about
a mile from Folsom, he was accosted

manded what money Chris. had and,
in addition, helped himself literally to
meat from the wagon.
"On arriving here Sorenson reported
the matter to the officers, and Consta-
BILE Burke started in pursuit of the
rob5er. who. however, he was not able
to apprehend. This is the first robbery
that mas occurred in this vicinity for
some time past. Sorensons loss
amounted to SO in money and a guam
