THE TIMES ON TOP.
The "Post' Compositors Defeated by
the Score of - TO g

a game of ball occurred at the early hour
of yesterday morning at National Park
The participants allege that it was really
from the best evidence of the spectators it
was not. 1t takes two mines to successfully
play a game, and from the score of the
contest yesterday morning it would seem
that only one team of ball engaged in the
proceedings
For many moons there has been war be-
tween the employees of the composing rooms
of The Times and the Post" AS Washing
ton is not situated in Kentucky, it would
have been out of order to start feud
with the customary horse pistol and red
liquor attachments. and so it was decided
TO settle all differences on the grassy dia-
mond.
The compositors of the Post had been
sadly worsted in an encounter of this kind
at an earlier date, but like Alger they did
not know when to quit. Accordingly the
gauntlet was cast upon the asphalt of Penn
sylvania Avenue by the Post" employees,
and straightway picked up by The Times
team. Articles of agreement were signed,
and yesterday set as the day for the battle.
And it occurred. To prevent any possible
disturbance, Mr.. O'Day, the park police
man, was chosen to hand down the decis-
ions. The wisdom OF the selection was
demonstrated, for at an early stage of the
proceedings, Mr.. o'Day was compelled 10
lay aside the role OF umpire and resume
his temporal authority in order to eject
from the enclosure one OF the spectators
who too strenuously insisted that his
money should be covered.
OF the game itself, glance at the score
tells the whole story. The Times eclipsed
its own record OF always being ahead of its
contemporaries. and captured the contest
by score of "a TO s. In the FIST round
Mr.. Broadfoot, the Post" pitcher, was
given miniature imitation of the bonn
bardment of Santiago, and from then on it
was e-sided exhibition with The Times
team occupying that one side The details
OF the next bout have not been completed.
The score by innings follows:
