After Daly and Corcoran had been on a pretty dotinle play by Bier-tuer, Glasscock add Hoc ley, clean-cut lies by Treadway, Schoch, Shindle and urns gave Brooklyn tbrse runs.

Vindicated fllra. Slocnm. From the New York World. Wm.

Alfers was married last Saturday, and the band which the bride paid for played the tune from "Lohengrin" which is about the only Waener thing that anybody cm hum. The wedding seemed a success, but Mrs. Slocum, from Brooklyn, said sbo did not like the look of weddini where no rice was thrown. Yesterday morning Mr. Alfers was discovered In tbe laboriously cutting his throat with a blunt tableanlfe.

He did not get on very well, and there Is much life still before him. He is at present under $300 bonds not to do It again. Mr. Alfers is usually steady, and drives for Lord Taylor. The bride Is visiting In Brooklyn.

Mrs. Slocum of that city Is thoroughly vindicated. A New Point In Law. London Telegraph's Paris Letter. An amusing case Is shortly to be decided by the Juge de palx of one of the Paris ar-rondlssemonts.

This the artist, refused, and tbe model, who claims 80 francs as her due. has gone to law about it. The judge, unable to decide tbe delicate point on the spur of tbe moment, has postponed his verdict for a week. A Very I rleudly Contest.

The Pittsburg club went down one point in the championship race last week, although making' the creditable record of winning "four of the six games played.

This was not as good a showing as the players expected; they counted upon taking three from Washington, and had two marked up for the Brooklyn series. Yesterday, however, they were well satisfied to get one from Krynes' babea thing wus developed during the Brooklyn series, namely, that the braves have not lost their ability to. go In and light for games under discouraging circumstances, so there Is hope for the future. This week will be a hard one, with Boston and Philadelphia here for three games each. The champions will play at Exposition park to-morrow, but there Is no game acneuuieu ior luesiiuy, Rim ootn ciuus will play exhibition matches.

It all depends upon the weather now, whether the attendance will be larger than usual on a holiday. Boston is the best olub Pittsbursr ever had for a gala occasion. and If the day Is pleasant some turnstile records may be tjroKen. me advance sale of reserved seats Is heavy, and many orders have been received at Pratt's Jrom out of towtj. Before" 'rushing around the country do-lnsr the baby act because a Plttsburer played win at Brooklyn, Charles Af fidavit liyrne snoum put on ma spectacles and glance over his own team.

"Beefer" Burns, while coaching at the third base line in the ninth Inning yes terday caused a collision that might have resulted seriously to one or both of the players who came together. A foul ny was sent up between third base and thi? plate, and Beokley called for Merritt to take it. Schelbeck was on the move, of course, and when Burns shouted "Schel beck he ran to get under the ball. Before he could stop he was rubbing shoulders with Merritt, and neither got the ball, alcyuade attention was called to Burns' conduct, but he had nothing: to say. Denny Lyons' retirement game for a few days was one of the most important incidents of the week.

Everyone knows that Lyons Is one of the best third basemen In the country; that he can field with any of tent, uses (rood judgment In making plays, and ia quite a hitter, but like everyone in the profession, he can be affected by criticism. Lyons returned from the east with the record of having played a better irame all around than any other member of the team, yet the very tirst Blunder be made caused a howl. And when the crowd starts after a player he usually toes fast New Orleans, June 28. Ring followers In genaral flr.d themselves called upon to apologizo to Bob Pltzslmmons for having in tbe past questioned tbat fighter's game-nesa It was In the Olympic club ring in tbls city that lanky Bob was first hit hard on American soil: Pet Haher it was that done the bitting. In answer to the chop that Irish Peter administered to tbe antipo dean, tbe latter found the floor In "spread eagle" fashion, and at once many were the rumors tbat Fit wasn't a game man.

Those remarks found popular favor with the sporting masses, and Fittslmmons suffered in consequence, many of the ring wiseacres agreeing that if the Australian was bit properly ho would "fly the coon Unless tho foreigners' fight with brave Joe Cboynski shown tbe doubting Thomases that Flttnrimons Is a game mamtbe latter made very little out of bis recent Boston engagement, for the. decision which he so justly earned, was withhold by tbe terms of the agr oxnent to tbe effect tbat If both men were oti their feet at the finish the result was to ls declared a draw. I had the good fortune never to have doubted the Australian's gameness, which I banked on be cause of his generosity to the men whom he had beaten, but there are many of my acquaintances throughout the country who have always doubted the Australian's gameness. They owe It to themselves to now admit that Fitzlmmons will not quit. The colored lighter, Joe Walcott, is gradually forging bis way to tbe front rank in pugilism.

Walcott. has been very successful lathering, and considering tbat be Is not rated as a clever tlghtor, some of his victories savor of strangeness. His whipping of Harris was not an astonishing event, but how be ever managed to defeat olever Australian Tracey, not having seen tbe fight has always been a mystery to me. Betide Tracey Walcott is neavy on bis feet, has noth ns the ability to box which the whl a possesses, and Is altogether awkward compared with the antipodean fieliter. It looks very much like Tom O'Kourkebaa found a second Dixon In the Boston welterweight.

U' Kourke has been very successful in handling fighters. The clever manager, unlike Billy Madden, brings men to the front, but he retains possession of them after they are to the front. Billy loses tbem as soon as they become champions, that Is those of them that lasts long enough to be- como champions. A few of the clevor lads whom Kourke nas Handled are as loliows: Jack llavtliH llarnoy Hubbard, George Dixon and Joe Walcott, quite a tighting quartet, 1 assure you. On this occasion the wnitos ana biacus oreaK even.

Now Orleans has come to the front again In prize-ring history. This time lovers of the llsllc art have offered Jim Corbett and Bob Fitzslmmons SO.OOO to battle for. and even that tempting bait has not caught tbe champion's fancy. Perhaps James wants more, ana pernaps win no allowed to want if such a nghtsliould take Dlace here. It la highly Improbable that it will, the bet ting peupie wouiu put a big nit on the Australian.

If the odds looked at all Justifiable. which in all probability will be tbe case. Htzsluitnons is not in our blue book." but he can fight a "mighty heap" all tbe samee. and tbe people hereabouts know It too But coming back to the real point In this issue, the "price," as it were, I think the amount is too large for any pair of prize fighters on earth. Some one may remark that it Is n6t my money that la being offered the men, but to them that may be inclined that way, I will say tbat I intend to have a whole lot to say about the purse just the same, anyhow, no nave naa some experience witb large purses already, and the last time the sports ptt-his city offered a large purse for a pair of foreign figliteis to contest for tbore was a disaster with a roar to It the size of the noise of Niagara.

All kinds of people got hurt In tho fall of tha Crescent City club, and thoiiKh It was not Intended by the managers of that Institution to have any one hurt; many folt It nevertheless. In the booming blading tor tne ngtit between uoroett ana Fitzslmmon It would be well to allow some oilier fellow to have tbe fiuht when the figures get close to heaven. There Is one thing certain, however, and It Is If the men fight In Jacksonville all the sporting writers who go to that town will want to wear a coat of mall and carry a mint of money. 'They' ve been there before," like tho man on the Bowery. Few people aro acquainted with the facts regarding Fitzsimnions' hatred of Jim Corbett, and for the bonetitof those who might not know.

I will give a brlof resume of their falling out. The night that Corbett whipped Sullivan in the Olympic club here, hundreds of men were desirous of shaking the hand that shook the hand of John Sullivan, and especially -le barn! that broke the nose and battered the face of the only John. Among the many callers at Corbett' dressing room doorwas Hob Fltzslmmons, and holding a letter in his band for the champion, Bob askod for admission to the room This was denied him by Corbett, -who hot-headedly exclaimed, -I don't want that man to come in here." Bob having failed to gain a hearing within the room, climbed up to the transom and was looking Into the room when the champion made the above spiteful remark, whereupon tho Australian grew very anifry and denounced the champion. Among other things that he said was that any well man co'uld have wbipned Sullivan the night Corbett (ought him. '1 his was belittling Corbett' i performance, and when It reached the ears of the Bostonlan's con-querer, It made him still more angry with the antipodean lighter.

Corbett' dislike for Fitzslmmons dates back to the time that Jlmfouttht with Peter Jackson. On that memorable night Fitzsimmons wagered that tho Colored lighter would win from tbe white man, and every expression of opinion that came from tho tall middleweight as regarded the lighters it was to the effect that Jarksou woutd win handily. Corbett knew of Fitzslmmons' alleglunct the colored antipodean lighter, and when you disagree with a prize-fighter you necessarily fall out, for he cannot understand, wny you claim to be friendly with him and still not think like he does as to the outcome of his fight witb some otoer man. At all events there Is method in Flzslmmons' madness with Corbett, and the two must ere long be opponents in the rope arena. The contest for the diamond sculls on the river Thames will bo one of tha grandest aquatic events ot the century, on account of the entries ot liyan and Wright, who will represent America In the water stwiggla, Americans are fully alive to the imuortance of winniuir.

Sculling race? are seldom sensational, lIcss there be crookedness discovered, but the race for the ulamond sculis will doubtless be tbe most sensational aquatic nfialr ever brought off on tbe other side of the broad and blue Atlantic ocean. There is but one man to fear In the great race, as far as my judgment can devine, and that man Is Nickalls, who Is a tiptop oarsman, and us speedy as a quarter horse. However, Kyun should beat bim, for, barring no rower, I think Kyan is tbe greatest amateur In tbe rowing world to-day. I think Kyan will win. TWO KMT MTAINnEMTS.
