BRouTHERs STILL BATTING.
Nearly Fifty Years Old, He is Linin,
Them Out Regularly.

A Poughkeepsie dispe tch to the Philadel-
pEia Record says:
Big Dan Brouthers, who is probably the
greatest batter that this country has ever
produced Is now, at the age of forty-eight
years. Playing ball like he did twenty years
ago, when he was champion of the National
League for four successive seasons There
are but two others who entered the game as
professionals thirty years ago who are still
playing-James O'Rourke and Ryan
Brouthers, who is playing first base on
the Poughkeepsie team, leads the Hudson
River League for batting One day this week
at SauSerteS, he went six times to the bat
and made six hits for q total Of twelve
bases. He made four singles and two home
runs, knocking the ball over the fence
winch Is 80 feet from the home plate.
Brouthers is in his old time form, and 1t is
largely through his efforts that the Pough-
keepsie team is at the head of the Hudson
River League, the other teams of which
are Paterson On. j., Newburg, Kingston
Hudson and Saugerties.
Brouthers first appeared as league play
er with Buffalo in 1880, where he remained
until 1885 when he was sold as one of the
Big Four"-Jim White, Jack Rowe, Hardy
Richardson and Brouthers-to Detroit.
BroutherS was the first of the Big Four
who nude record which will be known Of
and talked about as long as the national
game prevails
Brouthers played with Detroit in 1885,
1887 ami 1888; with Boston in 1889 1890 and
1891; with Brooklyn in 1892 and 1898; Bal
timore in 1894 and 1895; Philadelphia in
1885, and with Springfield of the Eastern
League, in 1897 and 1895. In both of those
years ne led the Eastern League in batting,
with percentage of .404 and AS.
While playing with Detroit he made his
celebrated batting percentage of 49, which
stood TO" number of years highest, until
Arson made .421. He led the league in 1889.
1891 AMI 1892 the highest score being .3S9
per cent. While playing with Detroit
Brouthers made three home runs a two
base hit and a single, which stood as the
record Until Delehanty made four home
runs in single game.

National League Clubs Standing.

| Inc senators once more went down to de-
feat at Spor.sman's Park, st. Louis, yes
| terday afternoon, the Browns being victors
| by the score of 5 to 3. Weak batting was
1 again the cause of the Senator's downfall,
but five hits Being made off Petty, while
| twelve safe bingles were scored by the
| Brown legs off Ortiz
1t is getting to be the Washington teams
custom to make good start and then filter
| away to nothing at the end. This was the
program yesterday. The score stood to 2
! In the Senators favor at the end of the
| sixth inning and as the Browns were
drawing up close they quit right there and
then. and ST. Louis had nothing to
DO but go ahead and win out. For five
| innings the Browns were treated to ciphers,
owing to some sensational work of Wash
| ingtons infeld. although they hit Ortiz
very hard from the start. The Lynchburg
boy evidently lacks confidence in himself
| on account of his recent illness. and it
will probably be weeks before he gets into
winning form
When the Browns went to the bat the
| first time the Senators pulled off double
play that probably saved a couple of runs
Burkett started off with single and Held
rick whipped a hot grounder toward right
Mccormick dashed over. scooped up the
ball. threw to Cassidy and the latter
retiring both runners, the entire play being
faultless. Throughout the game Cassidy
worked nicely with Mccormick, his quick
throws being almost as fast as those of
Barry.
The Senators broke the ice in the second
inning, scoring the first run of the game.
Mccormick waited patiently on Petty, and
was rewarded with a base on balls. Stahl
tried to sacrifice but Jones dropped Pelty's
throw and both men were safe. Willie
Bill' Clarke followed with a fine single to
right, and Mccormick raced home.
+ In the sixth inning the Washington boys
made two runs, their last of the game.
Once more Mccormick started the inning
with base on balls and was cleverly sac
rificed to second by Stahl. Drill got first on
being hit by the pitcher, and Orth hit to-
ward right. 1t looked like a sure double
play, but Padden allowed the roller to slip
between his legs and Mccormick scored.
Bill Coughin followed with single and
Drill scored.
In the same inning two safe bunts by
Burkett and Heidrick. a single by Hemp
hill and a long fly and out by Wallace,
scored two runs.
In the seventh inning the Browns shot to
the front, scoring three runs, and were
never again headed, the tallieS resulting
from free hitting and a costly error at first
by Bill Clarke.

Cleveland playing at home, yesterday de-

Hughes pitched a clever game, the Cleve-

hits meant runs, and incidentally took ad-

Bernhard just as hard as Cleveland did
Hughes. but the New Yorks. when man
reached first base, attempted to kill the ball
and knock it out of the lot. instead of at
