At Detroit, August 4th, the Philadelphia butters presented themselves to solve Weid- inau's delivery. At first it seemed as though the little pitcher would win, having struck out four men in the first two innings, but the pitching was overcome in the seventh inning when the visitors secured a total of twelve bases, principally by the last batters, and won the game. Coleman—he played—allowed the team but six singles, and they were scat­ tered in such a way that no runs were made. Ferguson's, Bennett's, and Hanlan's playing was admirable. The score:

On Monday the famous New York League Club put in an appearance and gave the home team a bad defeat.

A (iame at Cape May.On Saturday, August 4th, the Young

America visited Cape May to play the Con­ gress Hall nine, and were very cordially re- reived. The Congress Hall nine had been much strengthened by the addition of the Long brothers as the battery. T. Long, the pitcher, pitched a fine game, and was well supported, but the Young America batted very freely and won the game by their re- nuirkable steady play in the field, although having with them but seven of their regular nine.

At h'arrisburg, August 9th, another vic­ tory was added to the Harrisburg's list. The Harrisburg put Leary, the new pitcher, in the box, and the Actives, having secured Friel, of the Uenovo Club, made him face the batters and show what he could do. Leary is a tricky man and apparently uses brain work, as some of his r>alls were slow and in­ variably captured the batter on a foul tip when he hit at them. It seemed evident that he did not let himself out. The Heading pitcher was swift, and, had he been as well supported as Leary, would have made a good record. The batting on both sides was abont equal.HABRISB'G.

Games August lOth.At Brooklyn, August 10th. the Brook lyu

Club again defeated the Trenton nine. Terry's pitching proved an enigma to the Jerseymen, and he was supported in rare style. House­ holder and Farrow, both of the Brooklyn nine, displayed no small amount of skill in their pos itions. The score:

Mean Journalism.A local Sunday paper is mean enough to

insinuate that Joe Gerhardt's recent sickness was feigned to enable him to get his release, and also charges the Allegheny Club with a desire to throw games to the St. Louis Club. This same misguided sheet is in the habit of charging every unfortunate who makes an error, with being drunk or crooked. This sheet is an enemy to base ball and base ball players, It dosn't mean to be, but it must make what it considers "spicv" readiue even if it has to lie to do it. . "
