The Montgomery, Jrs., and the Greg
orys FLASHED yesterday. at the Mercer
street grounds in a game of baseball that
pleased a large crowd of youths and in
whichsthere were many plays that COM
manded admiration. The players showed
exceptional knowledge and ability in the
game. The team work was very good
and there were no Individual star plays
that show up one member of a team to
advantage, but often hurts the chances
of his fellows. In the field the Mont
gomerys made two errors, while the
Gregorys played a faultless game. The
Montgomerys won, however. The credit
of their victory is due to their ability to
bat hard and with attention to the bunch
ing and placing features. Blackburn, who
twirled for the Gregorys, was in good
condition and showed up very well in
view of the fact that the M~ontgomerys
are at their best with the bat and always
hit hard. O'Reilly was in the box for
the winners and displayed great speed
and entire control. His drop was his long
suit and was very puzzling to the Greg
orys' batters.
The Montgomerys took up the Willow
branch first n faced Blackburn. They
found him at once, and hit double bag
gers with regularity. In the initial in
ming they scored twice and the Gregorys
tailed once. Each side got one run IN
the second inning. The third saw the
Montgomerys welding the stick with
good effect. and three more runs were
added to their list. The Gregorys got one
run in the third and one in the fourth,
and their followers began to worry a lit
tie about the result. Thus the game went
on until the last inning opened, when the
Mentgomerys had ten runs scored and the
Gregorys had but seven. Then
| got together and held the Montgomerys
down a little. They got two runs before
they were retired. Thu Gregorys played
fast and furious ball in the last inning,
and had three runs in and no one out, Sc
they began feel they had a good chance.
Then with the boxes full, Barlow got up
and knocked a pop fly, on which all
hands moved before it dropped. MeCar-

The pool tournament which had been
arranged to take place at the parlors OF
r. A.. Walsh, Wayne and Brunswick
streets, was opened last night and good
sport was viewed by a large crowd of in
sterested spectators. The tournament was
arranged with a view of bringing the
cracks of the Fifth ward together. Among
the experts in this locality there has
been considerable rivalry. The present
event is expected to stop a lot of talk.
There were two games last night. John
Hosey and Patrick Flaherty were paired
off to try conclusions in the first game,
and they played a match that was full of
interesting features throughout. Hosey
was expected to win and a few opinions
were substantially backed. Hosey was a
strong favorite, but Flaherty showed up
in, unexpected form and won out in an ex-
citing finish. The players were tied at the

braced up and finished the tenth frame
by taking eight balls which made his
score II, while Hosey had ga. The last
frame opened with Hosey playing excel

herty got the four bills necessary to win.
The second game was between John

the first two frames but was not in the
game after that so far as a chance to win
was considered. Burns won by a major
