I of 29O head of families and l'z'

ed for.
! AS the city, did not receive all OF
the territory from Alexandria county
, he estimates that there were loo
heads of families with 800 population
brought in from Alexandria county
+ This would make the net addition tc
the city of Alexandria 229 heads OF

Chicago, July 5-The Cincinnati
Reds cut down Chicago's pennant lead
to one game to-day when they took
both games of the h)liday bill. The
scores were g TO ana y TO 7.
Both contests were smuggling matches,
which abounded with erratic playing,
especially on the part Of the home
team. In the first game Bresnahan
crossed the plate while the pitcher was
in the act of delivering the ball and
ran to first base under the assumption
that it was the fourth ball. Quigley,
the umpire. called him out
Bresnahan rushed at the arbiter,
who threw his mask TO the ground and
started after Bresnahan. PLAYERS
stepped between the two men, and
after considerable wrangling Bresna-
han was ordered to the clubhouse.
In the second contest Cincinnati took
a commanding lead off Lavender. when
a single, a double and two home runs
Melted four runs. Weird playing fol-
lowed, and the visitors continued to
pound out hits, making eighteen for a
total of thirty-one bases.
