to BASTED THE BREWERS The Millers Get Away With the Young* Men From Meel-vo-gee. TROUNCED IN AN INNING. Th 3 Minneapolis Players Are Cracker-Jacks With the Willow. RESULTS ON OTHER FIELDS. Boston and Baltimore Are Both Among the Winners of Saturday. vi h, it* II E West cr n league contest for 189-1 has In the last week developed into ' the hottest kind of a contest for the pennant. Kansas City, by winning ten straight games, has pulled up to withiu six teen points of t h c Hawkeye leaders, and Minneapolis is but thirty-four points behind and playing a very gingery game. It should not be foreot- j ten, too, that Toledo is still in it, although the changes of the Buckeye aggregation are slighter than these of the other three. Down the line India napo I is aud Grand Rap ids have been having a sort of give - and - lake struggle for place, the Hoosiers having ten points the best of it at the week's end. The Wisconsin nine has lost so steadily of late as to get a cast lion cinch on last place. The clubs are drawing surprisingly well in spite of tin* lateness of tin. season, and it is now certain there will be no breaks in the ranks. At the October meeting it is stated that one ot the clubs, probably Sioux City, will be unhorsed and St. Paul given the place. The clubs close the week in the following order: Played. Won. Lost. Cent Sioux City 100 59 41 .500 Kansas City 101 58 43 .574 Minneapolis 07 54 43 .too Toledo 05 52 43 .547 Indianapolis 100 4S £2 .4SJ Grand Rapids... 100 47 3 .470 Detroit 100 44 50 .440 Milwaukee 95 32 63 .336 In the National. The lead of the Baltimore club lasted but a single day, Boston securing first place again on Monday and Increasing it slowly until now it amount to twenty points. New Fork is playing the strongest game in the league, anil is now but six points behind Baltimore and twenty-six- behind Boston. The season will close in the West in Sep tember, and as the three teams will wind up away from home the best trav eler will bag "the bunting. It still looks like Boston, but almost - anything is liable to happen: From Philadelphia to the end of the list it is merely a light forulace. The clubs stand thus: Played. Won. Lost.

Ihe Brewers Get Rather a Bad '*. brushing. The Millers auspiciously celebrated their return home by taking a "fall" out of the Brewers. It was a pretty contest, and the score was close and interesting for five innings, but in the sixth inning Barnes' batsmen piled up seven runs by good batting' and base running. Stevens, the star twirier for the visitors, was Iv the box, but his curves and shoots were • easily solved. Bines, especially, had a "good eye," and made two home-run drives.a double and two singles out of six times at the bat. Visiter and Crooks each found the globe safely three times, and Parvin made a terrific drive over the fence, with two men on bases. Twitchell and Taylor took the batting honors for the visitors, each making three safe hits. Parvin pitched a fine game. He had greater speed than usual, and better control of the ball. The personnel of the Brewers is quite different than when the team was in Minneapolis un the last trip. Twitchell. Gpodnough, Long and Klopf are valuable acquisi tions, and Manager Cushmau believes that tiie team will hold its own for the rest of the season. The fielding of both teams wa*. good.

A MOST EXCITING FINISH With the Filly but a Head in Front-25,000 Witnessed . the Event. HEEPSIIEAD Bay, Aug. 25. — Futurity day at the Coney Island Jockey club track was au ideal day for a summer out ing. The breeze c irae in from the seas; it was cool and comfortable and one of the best d.iys for racing in a month. About 25,000 people were present. . Long before tbe first race was run the bookmakers began to lay odds against the starters In the Futurity. Butterflies was tbe choice by a large majority, and 6to 5 was the best price obtainable aeaiust her, closing at 4 to 5. The • ters, weights and jockeys were as follows: Horse. Weight. Jockey.

After fifty minutes' delay they were sent away to a good start, Butterflies a head In front ot California. Down the quar ter pole they flashed, and. curious to relate, five Allies were leading the field and all looked to be going well. Butter flies ahead. The pace was hot aud soon began to falter. When the half-mile post was reached Butterflies had a lead of two lengths, and Griffin was looking back at the others and easing his mount. Agitator, under the strong urging of Taral, had come up to second place, and was a head in front of Connoisseur. Gulta Perch a was fourth and California fifth. Around the turn into the main track the youngsters came with a mad rush, and while Butterflies seemed to be go ing easily, the others were being urged to their utmost to catch the fast-flying filly. ryy-7. ■; It seemed to be all over but the shout ing, when suddenly a darky wearing a maroon aud scarlet jacket, astride of a beautiful chestnut with a 'blazon face and white four feet, -V-***-'**'** ; '"'- "-•hot Out From the Btiucli behind him and set sail for the appar ently easy winner. It was Braudywine coming with the wind. Griffin heard the thunder of him behind him, and, glancing back, saw the streak of chest nut lightning, with Clayton riding, like mad a'flt* him. Thore was no time to waste now, and dowu the clever light weight jockey sat, digging with his heels and digging for dear life. He could help his mount but little, for she was dead now, aud every jump Brandy wine was catching her. Now he was at her tail; then his white nose was at her saddle, and Griffin saw it poked under his eyes, and he bad realized that he had to ride as hard as he knew how to laud the rich stakes for Gideon & Daly and win a small fortune for. the thou sands who had bet on the filly lie was riding. Inch - by tuch the colt was gaining on him and -straining his eyes for the finish, now only , a few yards away. A • few more jumps, and the finish : line was passed by, a tired boy on a tired filly, and the rich stakes .were " _ ' . 'y'^yl Won by a Head.

OVERS of horse racing bad" a j great picnic today. Allx and Fan tasy failed, but Directly con quered. The two - year old lowered the world's pacing record tor ani mals of his age, pacing in tbo face of a strong breeze and on an Indifferent track iv 2:10%. destroying Onliiiß's record of 2:11, and equaling the trotting mark of 2:10% made by Arlon as a two-year old. Six thousand people went to Washington Park hoping to see Alix beat Nancy Hanks' record. It rained a little last night, but the horsemen seemed to think it helped the track If anything. The time In the free-for-all would appear to contradict this. The free-for-all was hard fought, but the time ordinary for the class. The wind, however, was against fast work. It blew almost a gale down the back stretch. Yet the half . was not reached by Alix until -1:04 had been recorded, and the mile was made in 2:07^. Salisbury and McDowell felt dubious about the result, and had the judees announce in advance that the trial would be simply against Alix's time of 2:05^, although the mare would "do better If she could." There is no doubt that she was put to her best effort,and the task was simply too much for her. - When Dlreotly, therefore, came out ■ and made his wonderful performance a few minutes later, there was much sur prise, It is generally conceded that he \vilj beat Arion's mark by over a second .before the season closes. ■i _>antasy gave an exhibition mile in 2:08. She is not up to a great trial. The crowe saw a errand contest In the las? two heats of the free-for-all. Only $iree started. Pixley was the opening -favorite at 4 to 8, with Phoebe Wilkes at drito'o. Phoebe Wilkes won on the first two heats rather easily, but in the third , Nightingale came fast at the finish, and .jmaisle a dead heat with her. '^--'If^y^ ia Again In the next heat Nightingale got almost to Phoebe. Wilkes just before ■the wire was reached, aud the latter 'broke. The judges decided to give Mcllenry's entry the heat and race, however, and there was some dissatis , faction. 7.-7- ._;.'• The Summaries; : First race, 2:20 trot, Chicago stake purse, $5,000— 11 1 Ballona 1 1 1 Stronkita .*...: !...2 5 2 Miss McGregor.... 4 2 6 Mambr1n0. ......... ...... 3 3 5 Cellerlna. 5 4 3 lleir-at-Law .. . . . 8 6 4 ElsieS .......7 7 7 Don Lowell 6 Bdr ■ Time, 2:133*4, 2:14, 2:15%.

" CONTESTS OF THE WEEK. Young Tom Foley Came Out Ahead in the Match of Last Night. FOLEY NOW IN THE LEAD. Wabashas to Play Their Open ing Practice Game at Bowling Saturday. _„ -~p^ r HERE hag, as suredly, been no lack of interest in billiards in St. Paul during the past week. .The summer I handicap to urn a ment at Foley's still continues, and not a single game has been played thus far but that bas drawn out a large attend ance. On Mon day night T. P. Foley and Carney were the magnets that drew the crowd. Foley' made an actual average of nearly 4, and Carney one of 4 3*14. Young Tom's credited average was 5 15-57. Score: Foley,3oo; Carney, 236. Foley's high run was 53, nearly duplicating his run of 54 made the previous week. Baron, in an ex ceedingly olose game, was the victor in Tuesday night's game by a score of 300 to 298. Thayer was his opponent. As to the actual number of billiards made, handicaps considered, Thayer led by 88 points at the finish. Baron's credited average was 5 15-27, and that of Thayer 5 14-27. The actual averages of each were 515-27 and 4 17-27, respectively, lt was an excellent contest. The most sensational feature thus far in the tour nament occurred Wednesday night, when Dickinson played Sampson and defeated the favorite 300 to 207. Dick inson's average (credited) was 5 5-59, as against Sampson's (actual), 4 31-59. Sampson, though not in good form, off on his stroke and playing in hard luck, did some exceedipgly good work, not withstanding. Thursday night's game resulted in a victory for Thayer over Estes of 300 to 296. The credited aver age of each man (including the handi cap) was 4. This Was a very interest ing game. In the game Friday night Thomas defeated Carney 300 to 287. The handicap billiard tournament at Foley's is fast drawing to a close. There are . but five more games to . play. Sampson will appear lv two, Dickinson in two, Thomas in two, and the others iv one each, excepting Baron, who fin ished his schedule with last uigbt's game, winning only two and losing seven. He and young Foley appeared at the table to contest for the twenty third game, the former at 100 and Foley at 225, with the reliable old-time player. Dr. Law ton, as tbe referee. Foley won the bank, and In the first nineteen tun ings only scored ten billiards. Baron was doing lit le better. On his twenty, first inning Foley got to .going, and made a very beautiful run of 43. This started him off so that in the next twenty-Bye timings he scored over 200 buttons, or an average of about 8 to an . : inning. .. He came to an other stop when he had eleveu buttons to go, and Baron scored 30 beau ties while Foley was struggling to get his eleven, which he did In the next seven innings, winning the game on the fifty-fourth by the score of 300 to Baron's 281. Folev doubled eight times, as follows: 43. 10. 11, 14, 15, 11, 29, 17. Baron's doubles were 14, 11. 11, 12, 11.

' On next Saturday evening the bowl ing season of '94-95 will be inaugurated by the Wabashas with the opening practice game on Foley's alleys. The event will prove of interest to the bowl ers of the Twin Cities, as it is one of the oldest and strongest organizations in St. Paul. Tr.e names of their available team players have already been given in the Globe, and is conceded to be oue of the very strongest that can be brought to gether. Then will Come, in rapid suc cession, the appearance of the other clubs on the alleys with their member ship and playing material displayed in their proper places on the alley black board for Inspection. On Monday, Sept. 3. the Broadways; Tuesday, the" old re liable Summits; on Wednesday, the giant St. Pauls; on Thursday. Capt. Ed Good's ay ettes; on Friday, the jolly Gophers. After all the names are on the board the teams as they will probably be made up for the winter tournament should not be difficult guessing, at least to those who are fa miliar with the grand sport and manly exercise. There is as yet some doubt as to what club two or three of the very strongest bowlers will join -forces with. These men are holding off, It would seem, for the purpose of selecting tho strongest team to play with. Nothing has yet been done, so far as can be as certained, towards the formation of the picked team of tho older generation of players lor the winter sport. John Thill as yet has made no visible sign of any move in this direction. The fol lowing names have been mentioned in connection with such a team: Thill, Damler, Deggendorf, Hermes, Wege man and one or two others. Such a team would be regarded as the star of all the aggregations, lt is stated on authority that the old University club will again come to the front with a stiong team. There was a time when they were almost invincible. That was when the Nushkas were the champions. There have been no largo scores made the past week. The board stands just as it did when the Globe gave the scores last Sunday. Harvest Excursions.
