Vesper's Eight Lose Special to The Inquirer. TORONTO. Aug.

The water was rough and not to the llkng of the Quaker City oarsmen today, but despite that fact they were contenders In every race they started In. Not a first fell to their lot. but they managed to row second In two events. The Argonauts again made good their claims to the senior four-oared championship. but only after a hard race with the Pennsylvania Barge Club and Don crews.

There were two substitutes In the latter the members of tbe original crew having been taken sick. The Argonauts had a length the best of it nearly all the way. but the Barge Club four kept hammer ing away right in their wake, and near the fin. lsh tbey made a determined effort to pass tbe leaders, but the Argonauts staved off the challenge and uncorked a sprint of their own. which carried them over the line nearly a length and half ahead.

Tbe Dons were a close third. They led the Barge crew on sufferance up to the mile. The Vespers never had 'luck, finishing fourth, a length or so ahead of the Ecorse crew, Tbe Mutuals. of Detroit, sank when half the course had been comuleted. their boat breaking completely in half.

Jennigan. tne Vesper entry In the intermedi ate singles, found the pace too hot for him in the first half mile and returned. This was tbe best race of the day, hardly a length separating Nelson, Minett and Mason at the finish. Tbe pair oars was a red-hot race, although only me Argonauts ana Pennsylvania Barge Ciuh pairs started. The Argonauts reversed their defeat at the National Regatta by beating Scott and Marsh a length and a half.

Tbe barge pair, Scott and Lxley, won at Philadelphia, but the latter did not come along. Marsh was substituted. Thompson and Wright were in better shape than thev were at tbe Ouaker City, but would probably have won in any case, Edward Hanlan Ten Eyck, of Worcester, won the senior singles, as was expected, without much trouble. He led all the way and crossed the line at the finish two lengths ahead of Goldman, who just beat Lew Marsh, of tbe Dons, half a length. The latter was fouled bv Cresser.

of the Vespers, about a quarter of mile from the end and he lost much ground as a consequence. Cresser did not finish in this race. The junior fours, which was won by tbe G. T. R.

crew of Montreal, with Brockville second, was rowed in 9.31 4-5, six seconds faster than the time made by the seniors. Lewis and Ten Eyck got away with the senior doubles but they were all out at the finish. O'Conner and Marsh, of the Dons, gave them a hot race and it was nip and tuck all the way. Hender-son and Weinard, of the Cattins, of Chicago, were third. There were two fonla In the tntormalata fnnra which the G.

T. R. crew, of Montreal, won with 1117 mum second, jueanaers. ot Hamilton. third.

Tbe Leanders ran into tlie Ttrnckvllle crew and broke an oar In the latter boat, putting igem out or tne race. Tbe referee disqualified the Leftnders- and nrdereH Rtwir-iHUA a .1 tha 2 T. R. fours to row over to-morrow morning. The w.9!L,cbo.t)p-T DA tne wind rather strong.

Many who have 6unk into the depths of despair from the numerous failures to which they have been subjected would do well to call and freely unburden their minds and explain without fear or hesitation the nature of their complaint. They will find in the doctor tbe old proverb exemplified, that A FRIEND 111 NEED IS A FRIEilD INDEED bv receiving a proper diagnosis of the case, sound advice, skillful treatment and when nature presents the possibility a speedy cure. There Is no reason for half the suffering which exists, for if those afflicted in any manner would exercise common prudence in tbe selection of a reputable physician, and act with the same Judgment that they manifest in business transactions, they would avoid quacks and patent nostrums and seek intelligence, experience and au honest expression of opinion.

ATLANTIC'S GREAT GAME The Mighty Cleveland Given a Gallant Brush at the Shore Special to Tbe Inquirer. ATLANTIC CITY. N. Aug. 9.

Tt was the bargain matinee that attracted over three thousand people to Inlet Park this afternoon ani it is sate to say that 1 one of them expected the base ball treat that was in store for them. The Atlantic had a hard afternoon's rork eut out for them and a gtance at the scores show how creditably they acquitted themselves. The first contest was with Mauch Chunk, and the mountain lads pliycd the local collegians to a standstill, neither team scoring. The great work of the little Indian pitcher, Bruce, for 1 i .1 11 v. 1 star pitcher for Villa Nova College, was largely responsible for the result, bnt the brilliant feeding of bo'u teams spoiled many a drive that looked good hit.

The Clevelands were given a rousing reception when they took the field for the second game and the team that is making such a bid for the National League championship were. not long in finding ont that they had worthy opponents. Jones. Cleveland's crack south paw, and Bert Conn, Atlantic City's kid pitcher, were selected to do the twirling and the local man bad decidedly the best of it and would nave scored a scut out had his support been as good as usual. The Atlantics etared If with a rosh in the initial inning, scoring tbeir only run on a base on balls to Buiua, DicKson sacrifice and Varr Siasnmg drive against the centre field rence for two bases.

Cleveland scored one in the third, Burkett reaching first 00 Schoenhut's fumble, going to third on another error and scoring on Connor long ny to Burns. They scored their other run in the fourth ueoeau led off with a single and went to third on Plerson's wild throw to second, scoring while Blake was being run down between the oases, corn teams got around to third several times during the rest of the game, but just when a hit was needed the pitchers did great Work. The Cleveland team will play here again to-morrow. Conn or Burns will pitch for Atlantic City and Powell for Cleveland. The ATLANTIC CITY.

Fran Highley and Phil King. PASSED BALLS Thomas News, the crack right fielder of tbe Pawtucket club, of the late lamented New England League, is to Join the New Yorks. News, after the collapse of the New England Iague, signed with Providence. Moy, of the Pawtucket outfit, received Information that News belonged to him, as he had paid salaries and had been granted protection. News was given a New York contract, signed It and left to Join the Giants Saturday.

He looks a pretty fair proposition. He la a good batter and a sure and fast fielder, 1 The Paterson club, of the Atlantic League, is the first elub In the eountry to reach the century mark in championship games. It played its one hundredth game yesterday, when It de feated Allentown. Reading would have reached its "centennial" yesterday but for the fact that it played a tie game with Richmond. It and Lancaster have each played ninety-nine games.

Poor Lo Louis Sock a lexis, alias Young-Man-Afraid-of-Water, was left home by tbe Cleveland management. "But he's not afraid of water this season. That and ice tea are his limit. Once in a while he gets sporty and goes against some bard cider that Cy Young brewed," says Tebeau. President Hart, of Chicago, announces that be and Tom Burns are going after the pennant in 1889.

With that end in view all toe surplus earned by this year's team will be expended in securing new players by trade or purchase. Manager Burns is to have Just tbe players be wants if they can be bought. Wheeling wants base ball bad. and has asked Tom Loftus to transfer bis Columbus team to the Nail City. Some time ago the Wheeling people actually wired Nick oung a serious proposition for the Cleveland Club and franchise.

Of course, it was declined. Rusle has reduced forty-five pounds In weight since tbe opening of tbe season and has had to have his suit altered to make it fit him. He weighs about 200 now. Mr. Ebbetts.

of Brooklyn, has been in Kansas City after players. He would like Williams, the brilliant third baseman of that club. The former monarch of the southpaws, Ed Morris, continues to blend rickeys. high bails and cocktails in bis Smoketown emporium. The Kansas Cltys are right at the heels of Indianapolis, with splendid chances of getting the lead.

"Get out of the game!" ordered Bone, snd McGoo retired on a stretcher, a well- aimed shot from Shortstop uang pistoi nav Ing laid him out.

President Snideman thereupon made a speech declaring that be bad alwaya been an upholder of law and order, aud that Ibey should be maintained if every Baltimore player on tbe field bad to be shot to do It. He then shoved a blunderbuss under tbe umpire's nose and bade that official do bis duty. Being unable to fine a resident of a club, the umpire did tbe next est thing and dodged. The next batter went out on a high fly, and when the third, I'lub So-mers. came up to bat be hit a little pop.

which was smothered by tbe pitcher. Thereupon tbe crowd leered him. "Oh. tag; you re it, retorted Somers, using a slang phrase of the day. White with rage President Snideman rushed upon the field aud made for the umpire.

"I want that man put off," he shouted. 'What fart" asked Bob. "He used an insulting epithet, and looked Straight at me wben be spoke. He called tne an it. He Insulted in my person every man In New York, of which I am an Inhabitant, every person In the United States, of which I am a citizen, and every member of the human race, of which I am one.

I won't have him in the place, even If I lose money by it. Yon bear? Even If I lose money." "I can't put blu off, aa I beard him nse so epithet." said the umpire. "Then I'll put you off." shrieked Bnldeman. and. pulling a blackjack from his pocket, be knocked tbe umpire senseless, while tbe grand stand, which was filled with Haldemas'S friends, ahouted approval.

The president then approached Somers asd demanded that he leave the ground. "I didn't call yon anything." said the player. You He. you rag-tagged Jack-in-the-box," felled Snideman. (N.

B. The language is sier-lised before use.) "I want you to understand that I'm striving for decency and purity in tbla fame, and no gol-bleacbed oyster-eating snipe ike you can stop me, gee-swizzle your immortal spirit to Hoboken!" As Somers was about to reply a volley from the grand stand laid bim low, and Snideman walked away making about four million dollars' worth of remark at Guggenbelnier valuation. Umpire Ide took the place of tbe disabled Bone and tbe game proceeded, tbe locals making one run, on a scratch, and two singles, and the umpire Incidentally scattering fines lavishly. In this half the game was interrupted by Captain Jooce claiming that Tully. the eentre-fielJer.

Bnlde-ninn, wbo bad provided for lust such contingencies, touched a button which exploded a mine under the offending Tully. and that player hasn't been heard of since. It was noticed that during tbe remainder of tbe game the other euftteloera appeared ill at esse. Third Inning The Baltimore started oat with a rush, netting three runs by a homer, a single and two doubles.

Then the grand stand and tbe trenches began to shoot, which rattled the man at tbe bat. although he was incased In bullet-proof clothing, such as all visiting teama wear when thev come New York. Ha atruck out. and the two following batters went out on pop tiles. In the borne team's half came the event that ended the game.

Iiooley knocked a very high fly toward third base. Before fell a playful sharpshooter khot the ball to p'eces. but Miggle. the third baseman, received the largest section, other small fragments landing some distance away. "Runner out!" announced the umpire.

"Kill him!" came tbe cry from all directions. But Ide waa prepared for this. In a flash be bad dodged into hie steel turret, a fw feet away, bolted the heavy doors, and opened nte with bis -pounders aided by a corps of gna-ners Inside. At the same moment the right and left field earthworks biased away at the Baltimore, who replied witn their revolvers the grand stand Joined In.

In response to a telegram as to why the Phillies did not play at Chicago yesterday and today the Chicago correspondent wired as follows: instead of playing the Phillies here on Tuesday and Wednesday a double header was played ou Monday.

Chicago leaving that night for the East. On Wednesday and Thursday Chicago will play at Brooklyn the games scheduled to be played there Aiucust 19 and 20. The cbanse was made in order that Brooklyn might play here the Saturday and Sunday following." This Is only a partial explanation as the Phillies were s-bediiled to play a regular championship game at Chicago on Mondav and there mur there fore lie another postponed game added to the list. In the one game played yesterday Boston easily defeated Cincinnati by a score of 8 to 0. Nichols was invincible and held the Reds down to five singles, while the Beaneaters banged Hawley at will, and profited by Hawley's wild-ness.

he giving two bases on balls and hitting two with pitched tails. A postponed game was also to have been played between Cincinnati and Boston hut thi was prevented by rain, and it will probably be pulled off to-day in addition to the regularly scheduled game. Pittsburg and Baltimore were also to have played off a postponed game, but rain interfered and thev also may come together to-day. Another change in the schedule has been made. Cleveland transferring another game to this city with Baltimore and they will meet at Broad and Huntingdon streets to-morrow.

"raiui ui yesieruay a kh me rvosioa is again tied with Cleveland for second place. The struggles for the pennants of the Atlantic and Eastern Leagues are both inf eresting and exciting. In the former Richmond and Reading are having a see-saw fight for the leadership, the Southern team having the slight advantage of four points at this time. Just how great the rivalry is between these teams can be ludged from the score of yesterday's game, when they plaved ten innings without scoring, rain stopping plav in the eleventh inning. Lancaster.

the present holder of the pennant, is a close third in the race, and it looks as if the straggle at the finish will be between this trio of clubs. In the Eastern league the first four dubs are fighting close, but the indications are that the champion pennant will go to Canada next vear. Owing to delaved reports of games, transfers, It is hard to keco a correct table of this league. The Inonirer yesterday had Toronto in front, but the Buffalo Express, which is on the ground, snd an interested spectator, puts Montreal In the lead. The Innuirer's table to-dav is correct ed from official source, and will, therefore, be ronnfl correct.
