Hills Terrific Drive.

The Nationals got one of these runs back
IN their first turn at the bat through Hilfs
terrific drive to left. the ball rolling under
the score board and being good for four
bases Another run was made by the To-
Gals in the second and the spectators took
heart Stahl led off with a clean single to
right and was sacrificed to second by Jones'
Petty then tried TO catch Stahl mapping
and made a quick throw to Wallace, who
covered the bag. The ball bounded out
of Waliace's hands and rolled toward right
field Stahl lit out for third and Gleason
made poor throw to Starr, the ball going
TO the stands Once more Stahl was on
his feet and digging for home. and another
poor trhow followed from Starr. the run
ner crossing the plate in safety. 1t was
a ludcrous exhibition of Wild throwing and
created a great deal of laughter.
In the fourth Anderson and Hueisman
tore of hits and the former scored while
Jones was being retired at first on his
roller 10 Wallace. In this inning Gleason
scored on Hills error and Roths single.
Then came the demoraZing eighth. the
entire Brown team batting around before
the third hand could retired, five singles
and triple being registered and five runs
scored A detailed account of this in
ming would give one the shivers. In the
ninth it looked like another slaughter. but
the Browns quit work after scoring two
runs on one HIT double steal and two
errors.
The locals last run was registered in the
ninth. the result of Jones single and Knoll )
beautiful drive to left for two bases.

Confidence Was Misplaced.

When the announcement was made that
Tom Hughes was to pitch for the locals a
sef-satistied smile could be seen on the
spectators faces, but this quickly disap-
peared after the first inning. and 1t was
seen that the tall boy was in for an off day.
After the initial inning Hughes worked
like a Trojan holding the Browns down to
TWO hits and two runs in the next six in
nings. but when he found that his compan-
ions had left their batting eyes at home he
lost heart, and in the eighth inning his
curves were laced all over the lot.
The loyal fans turned out in large num-
bers and really deserved better entertain
ment than was forthcoming. There was a
total lack of brilliant fielding. and with the
Nationals trailing all the way there was
no chance TO enthuse or cheer. The Browns
changed their team around somewhat.
sending Gleason to second and koehler
back into center field. and the shift worked
well the former handling grounders in
a quartette of difficult flies.
At the start off, Stone got base on balls
and Starr was safe on a short roller that
was intended for a sacrifice. Van Zandt
then hit TO Hughes and the latter tried to
head off Stone at third. but his throw to
HUI was a trife late and the bases were
filled. Wallace then tore off a double into
left and Stone and Starr raced home.
koehler hit a roller 10 Cassidy and the lat
ter tried to throw home to head off Van
Zandt. but the ball was wet. slipped from
his hand and went wild to the grand stand,
Van Zandt and Wallace scoring. Jones
slammed a single into left, Koehler taking
third on the hit. Gleason struck out and
Roth went out on a roller to Stahl. While
Petty was at the bat Koehler tried to steal
home and was only nipped at the plate by
Il fraction. on Hughes quick throw TO

The Browns caught the Nationals all out
of keller yesterday afternoon, and led on
by Pelty's fine pitching, easily won out by
the one-sided score of II to 4. The errors
of omission and commission were much in
evidence against the local outfit. and the
Browns were on their toes at all times to
take advantage of every little slip-up. The
Nationals have been winning so frequently
OF late that doubtless they considered the
Browns beneath their best efforts, and In
all cases of this sort the Overcon1idence
paid the penalty.
The grounds were damp and soggy from
the heavy rain. and the conditions APP
parently affecting the Washington players
to such an extent that they looked loggy in
making plays and getting around the bases
The Browns got big start in the first in
ming but the spectators settled themselves
for a great uphill battle and a victory they
felt sure would turn up before the last
inning had been played. But the squirt
failed TO materialiZe. Pitcher Petty being
very much of a puzzle. and the best the
Nationals could do was to get two hits to-
gether in the fourth and ninth innings the
other three hits being scattered in as many
turns at the bat.

WHITE CITY VAUDEVILLE.

CaicedO's Wonderful Performance
 Venetian Nights Saturday and Sum-
 day.
 The star feature of the outdoor vau- deville bill at the White City this week is Caicedo, the king of high wire per- formers. His sensational act is attract ing widespread interest, and hundreds flock from the Grove to see him every afternoon and evening. Caicedo per- forms without net, which makes his act one of the most perilous now on the road. His single, double and triple somersaults are feats which it seems
 are impossible of accomplishment, but he does them with an ease and grace that are astonishing. This is the first time that Caicedo has been seen in the New England states, and his act should not be missed. &
 Another fine feature is that of the myriophone as played by MT. Karsy, the inventor, and his wife. The myrio- phone is an instrument of remarkably beautiful tones, and it's great volume fills the White City with it's splendid music. The Karsys carry large num- Der of selections, including both the classical and popular.
 Miss Emma Irving and her 200 differ ent snakes afford a most instructive lesson in reptile life. Miss Irving is a beautiful girl, who has studies the life of poisonous snakes since her childhood. She handles the most deadly copper heads and rattlers without the slight est fear, and an instructive lecture is given every hour.
 That the people may have an oppor- tunity' to see the beautiful Venetian nights, Manager Cundell has decided, after receiving numerous requests, by letter and otherwise. to have them Sat- urday and Sunday evenings.

IORSTERS &

Along the west shore, this summer, many of the residents nave taken to setting lobster pots. This is a cornpara- lively new fishing stunt hereabouts in recent years, but in the main the Dur- suit of these broilers has been quite successful. The building of new break waters, it is said, has made a good ground1 for the propagation of these crustaceans, and it is, hoped that the lobsters are there to stay.
 Forty wears ago Holsters were caught by the dozen every day in the season in the Mill and Quinnipiac rivers in lobster InOts.

New Haven Theater.

Hal Reid's sensational drama of thrill ling interest, Clusters Last Fight" will be pr, scented this evening. It is based on the historic scenes and times when the immortal Custer made his last heroic stand against overwhelming hordes of Indians. Another picturesque character of this drama is Colonel Co., dy, known to the world as Buffalo Bill. All the weird detail of Indian life at that primitive period of their existence is shown with faithful minuteness, and a grand reproduction of Clusters Last Fight" forms a fitting climax to this, the b5st play of the season. Palefaces, Indians, cowboys, scouts and soldiers, numbering forty people in all, together with horses, ponies, dogs and wolves necessary to present the play, make the largest dramatic company on the road. The company's roster numbers forty people. headed by Montgomery Irving as the famous scout, Buffalo Bill.
 The reproduction of Clusters famous battle with the Indians on the Little of the new play. Buffalo Bill's 11istori- cal duel with Yellow Hand, chief of the Cheyenne Indians, is also a feature and true to life. The cowboy scouts and their horses have been kindly loaned for this production by Colonsl Gordon w Lillie (Pawnee Bib.
 The band of full blooded Indians will give a grand concert outside the thea ter before each performance. Watch for the great street parade.
