BROWN COLLEGE BEATEN.
Georgetown Plays N MaGnificent
Game and Wins u Victory.


Providence, R. l., May 25.-The George
town met the strong team representing
Brown College here today, and as re-
suit added another victory to their long
roll. The Brown College team has met and
defeated all the big cracks in the collegi-
ate world, and the Georgetowns expected,
and were not disappointed, hard hight
from the Rhode Island lads, especially as
the former team is somewhat Handicapped
by the absence of HenDa, the Illness of
Captain Mccarthy, and the injuries receiv
ed by Hafford in the Yale and Harvard
games Coach King late last night tele-
graphed for Substitute Casey to report to
him at Providence.
The game here today attracted a big
crowd, as everyone in this section is anX-
ious to see the Champions play. There
was also a large crowd Of former George
towners present, and they encouraged the
blue and gray adherents with applause all
through the contest. The grandstand and
bleachers were packed, and to add to the
affair full band of music gave an open
air concert before the game started. The
game itself can be easily related. the
Georgetown boys winning simply because
they played the better ball. Their exhi-
bition given here today could not be eX
celled by any League team in America.
Their team work was perfection itself, and
this is borne out by the fact that, though
out batted by their opponents, they play
ed the game as 1t should be played, and
chased the runs across the home base that
insured the victory.
Beache pitched another one of his great
contests, and from the score is would look
as If he were batted hard. but he kept the
hits scattered and gave easy chances to
his men behind him when not striking the
Browns out Cranston kept up his good
work. while Moran and Fleming played
havoc with all infeld hits sent into their
territories. The team, as a whole, played
an errorless game, the work of Captain
Mccarthy, though i'll, being first class. In
batting, Walsh and Hafford led, the former
hitting for homerun when first and sec
ond bases were occupied, while the sacri-
flee hits of Fleming. Moran, and Burns
were productive of runs. 1t was the best
game the boys have played so far, and ev-
eryone is happy tonight. Washburn, of
the Browns put up splendid game, while
he was ably backed up by Lestage though
at times the fielding was ragged. The
Georgetowns take a rest on Friday, in Or
der TO be in shape to meet the strong
Holy Cross team on Saturday. The score:

An Enjoyable Ending to the Meeting
mt Morris Park.

New York, May 25.-The spring meeting
of the Westchester Racing Association
closed at Morris Park today with one Of
the most enjoyable afternoons sport seen
at the picturesque headquarters OF the
jockey club in several years. The gather
ing was decidedly representative, clubdom
being in force to applaud the winners OF
the rich Eclipse Stakes and the historic
Belmont. The latter race was the red let
ter feature Of the day, and developed a
contest that has, few parallels in racing
history. Only four horses went to the
post but they were the cream of the three
year-old division.
At the furlong-pole- Glengar showed the
way by a length, with Half Time. Jean
Beraud and Filon dor racing heads apart.
The leading pair maintained the same or
der for the next two furlongs. while Ber-
aud dropped back to last place behind
Filon dor AS they came around the
hill Glengar continued to hold his own but
Half Time was at his throatlatch. Beraud
was still whipping in the bunch, but NOV
ing up fast. When squared away for home
Clawson brought the game little son of His
Highness up until his neck showed in front
OF Half Time. Opposite the free field It
looked as if Jean Beraud would win by a
good margin. but Half Time kept after him
in the gamest fashion, and the Paget colt
only squeezed home by a head. Jean Ber-
aud went the route in 2:23, the fastest
ever made over the course and a quarter
second better than the record set up by the
three year-ol Scottish Chieftain, carrying
115 pounds, on May 90, 1897.

Chicago. May 25.-The Washington team,
hailed as one OF the weaklings of the Ma
tional League, made the Chicagoans look
like corner-lot players in the opening
game of the season between the two clubs
here this afternoon. Callahan, who had
been doing Chicago's star pitching up to
date, was in the box for the local nine,
but the visitors showed nc respect for him
whatever. and gave him one of the worst
trouncings he has ever received. They
batted him for a total of twenty-five
bases, Mcclure, Padden, Bonner, and Free
man leading the assault. Weyhing, on the
other hand, held the Chicagoans well in
hand, and but for Green's home run the
score would have been much more one
sided than ii was.
In fielding the work of the teams was
about on a par. Demont, as usual, had
couple of errors at short. There were no
special fielding features. the game being
tame in this respect. Chicago started out
like an easy winner, Ryan making a single
and Green batting out home run. Lange
also singled stole second and came home
when 0'Brien muffed DeMont's fly.
Washington began scoring in the sec
ond, when singles by Mcclure and Padden
were followed by a two-b bagger by Wey-
hing. giving the visitors two runs. VOL
verton's error gave Slagle a life at the
outset of the third, Mercer was retired on
an infield fly but Bonner hit safely TO
centre and reached second on Demont' s
error. Cassidy flew cut TO Mertes, but
McGuire'E handy bat landed another safe
hit. on which Slagle and Bonner scored,
putting the visitors in the lead, where
they remained. Padden's triple and an
out at first gave Washington still another
run in the fourth, and in the sixth they
put the game out Of all possible danger
The usually accurate Callahan started
out by hitting both Freeman and Padden
with pitched balls, then weighing hunted
and beat the throw to first, filling the
bases. O'Brien's fly 10 Ryan sent one
run across, and when Slagle was retired
il began TO look as If the inning was not
10 be so bad after all; but Mercer who
had failed in both of his previous efforts
at the bat, hit safely this time, two more
men scoring and when Bonner hit 10 right
field for three bases he came in with the
fourth run OF the inning.
Chicago got two more in the seventh,
but they did little good. Callahan made
a single. and Ryan and Wolverton both
got three baggers. Washington added two

wrestling match in Kernan's Theatre last
night. Roeber was unable to get fall
and Miller was awarded a purse of S25.
Some pretty work was done on both sides.
Miller was on the defensive and was too
active to be thrown. In spite of his clever
work, Roeber had nearly succeeded in get
ting a pin fall when time was called.
Both men were in excellent condition and
put up good exhibition. Tonight Roeber
meets Mori Adali the Terrible Turk,
