Great Game.

The ball game yesterday between the
Union and Belmont street teams drew
large crowd and was very interest
ing. DR.. Boone was on the field as sur
geon. Senator Archer was umpire, and
some of his decisions were quite orig
inal and very oderiferous. There was
one or two hairbreadth escapes. In
the fourth inning Charles Bippus was
hit with pitched ball, which struck
him over the heart and badly damaged
his $3.50 watch, which was in his vest
pocket. In the sixth DR.. Beetham col
lided with first baseman Shindewolf,
knocking Shindewolf entirely out and
compelling him to retire from the
game. The following is the lineup of
the two teams: Union Street-Heath-
erington, short stop; George. second
base; Glass, catcher; Archer. center
field; Shindewolf, first base; McClel-
land, third base; Milligan, left field:
Nelson. pitcher; Hopkins, right field;
Reed, sub-catcher.
Belmont Street-~Dr. Beetham. catch
er; kirkpatrick, first base: Gavin.
short stop; Wassaman, left field, Bin
pus, third base; Fish, right field; Wey,
second base; Waters, center field.
Minnehan, pitcher; FELTON,. sub-catch-
er. The score was, Union, 20; Belmont
10. There were many star plays, the
feature of the game being the playing
of George, Beetham and Bippus.

good authority that Gen. Butler has
again crossed the Tugela river at three
places and that lighting has been pro-
ceeding all day long.

OF Gen Buffers alleged movements as

the correctness Of its information, al
though It has not yet learned the exact
positions Gen. Butler seized.
In the house Of commons today the
government parted most Of the ques-
lions in regard TO the war in South
Africa. Mr. Wyndham, the parlla-
mentary under secretary OF state for
war, maintained that the information
furnished by the intelligence DEPART
ment mas generally accurate, and that
information In regard to the forces re-
naming in the United Kingdom would
be included In the statement which the
government would make shortly. Rela-
tive to the speech made By Gen. Lord
Wolseley. the commander-in-chief, In
regard to the reverses In South Africa,
Mr.. Wyndham said Lord Wolseley
merely intended TO convey the impress
sion that the military qualities shown
by the Beers were OF higher order
than had been anticipated. AT this re-
mark the Irish members cheered. Asked
II he had any war news to communl-
| cate to the house. Mr. Balfour, the gov
eminent leader and first lord Of the
treasury, replied In the negative.
In the absence OF exciting war news
