'VIR6IUIANS AND GRAYS
TO PLAY HERE TO-DAY

For the nrst time in almost a
, month, the war-seaFred Nirsinians
last night slumbered in theak native
hay. After squeezing out a ten-in-
ming victory over Dunn's Love Birds.
Otto led his wanderers back to the
home hearth. the outfit arriving last
evening about twelve bells.
| Today a quartet OF jambourees Will
be started with the renowned Provt-
dence Grays, just about the best all
around performers in Ed. Barrow
circus. In lieu OF the W. X fatted
calf. the supporters OF the pastime
in Richmond are expected to attend
the opening engagement in droves
and fiocks. lust to see whether any
Of the boys have grown boards or
anything while on their journey.
The attraction offered is as classy
as the International affords. the
Grays, as before mentioned, being one
nifty ball club. Then. too, OFT has
taken unto himself a brace of hurl-
ers since leaving the home pastures
and fans will probably be given an
opportunity to give one OF them the
double cipher this afternoon. II
Young does not mount the slab.
Adams will do the hurting.
Donahue, the lad who won his own
game against the Birds Yesterday, has
displayed plenty of stuff in his sew
eral try-outs and seems to have more
control than any man on the staff.
with the possible exception OF Hack
Eibel.
Otto Knahe has been out of the
game for several days From what
we can learn. OFT took a dobe of
ptomaine poison after Mcbride called
Everett RaDkstor ont at home and
chased Knabe for disputing the de-
cision.
"Jonesy," who has been playing
travelling companion to the BOYS while
on their ramble, whispers that the
Virginians got some pretty raw deals
from the jumps on their travels. He
also advises US to keep our one good
glim on Donahue. The boy seems to
have made a hit
The fray will begin this afternoon
at 1870. as was the old esta blished
custom before the boys got that
travelling bug. Come out and bid
them welcome.
