Cowboys outfielded and outbatted the Baltimores to-day, but they lost the game just the same. Hoover made two wild throws in the first inning, which let in three runs. That tells the story of the defeat.

The home team did their heaviest batting when it did no good, and the Baltimores hit just in the nick of time. Burns' batting and circus catch in center were the features of the game. KAN. CITY. R.

Doyle was highly recommended to Secretary Batman, playing at Wheeling. Doyle is suid to be a plucky catcher, and his hatting average, which is 333. shows conclusively that he is a sticker. Secretary Batman, with a shrewd eye to business, will let no purchase, money go until Doyle's name has been seeured to contract. Jack Chapman recommends the new catcher as a good one.

The Club's New Attractions. The Louisville Club will probably offer three new attractions either Saturday or Sunday. Besides Doyle, the catcher, the club will have an infielder and pitcher. The unknown pitcher from Nashville, who has written for a trial at his own expense, is expected to day, and he will very likely go in against Columbus. The young man is said to Secretary Batman, who several days ago wrote the Canton Club asking what would buy his release.

The price set was $500, and an acceptance was telegrapded yesterday. An agreement was reached regarding the catcher's salary, and it is expected that he will arrive in Louis. ville shortly. The Canton Club is now batch of recommendations from prominent business men and hase-ball experts of that rity. The infielder is First baseman Wistner.

Sf the Evansville Club. He is olso anxious to secure a trial and he will be given an opportunity to show his ability as a ball player. He certainly has one requisite for a first baseman, for he is six feet four inches in height. Wistner is a hard hitter. Von der Ahe Was Left.

The assemblage would proha. his not be considered large by one used to witnessing city gatherings on great 00- casions, but it Was made up of solid men and women, and so, if estimated by comparative worth, it would largely overshadow many more pretentious assem binges. There were not far from 2,000 plates of fruit on exhibition, besides potatoes, specimens of corn, wheat, and other grains, and hay and grasses of all sorts.

There were also a large number bf speci. mens of fancy needlework, ranging 1 from a bit of elegant lace to mammoth crazy quilt.
