Cincinnati, O , Juno 1. To-da's game be
tween Cincinnati and St Louis was to de
cide which of these teams should start East
In the last rotch In the National League
race. Cincinnati won and the Cardinals will
go to Boston as tall-cndcrs.
The new Cincinnati pitcher, Henry Thlel
man. recentlj- released by the New York
team, pitched a masterlj game for Cincin
nati. His two wild throws, however, en
abled the Cardinals to make two of tnelr
three tallies.
The visitors plajed a poor fielding game,
the poorest seen here this season. Tho lo
cals plaed a loose game, too, but were
easy winners.
Wicker, for St Louis, did not hae his
usual deceptive ball to-day, and the Reds
pounded him all over the field, much to
the disgust of a host of friends from his
home, Bedford, Ind., who came down on a
special train to see him work. The locals
pounded him for thirteen safe hits, and the
majority of them were lined out at critical
stages of the game.
The feature of the game was Captain
Tom Corcoran's play, lie fielded sensation
ally and batted .710. He made one of the
most daring and sensational base-running
piajs tnat was ever reen on the local dia
mond. In the sixth, after he had doubled
and getting too far off second when he
tnougnt wicker was going to tnrow tne ball
home, Corcoran started for third, but Wick
er caught him in the act. Captain Tom
kept on going and by a .narvelous dive
reached third, managing to make Hartman
muff the ball.
The game was replete vlth sensational
ana snappy p'ays ana a continual in-'naiy
squabble was going on all the time between
the two teams, and several f,ulng mctches
resulted.
CARDNALS BEGIN WELL
The visitors started off like winners. Far-
rell got his base of Thlelman's wild throw
ana Donovan riled out to Crawford, fcmoot
drew a base on balls, then Barclay sent a
single to center wmen jio iumDied, allow,
lng Farrell and Smoot to score. The next
two, however, went out easily.
In the Red's half, with one man out,
Dobbo walked and Beckley singled, but was
forced out by Crawford. Krjger tried to
turn into a double play, threw wild and
Dobbs scored. JIagoon ended the Inning
bj- going out to short.
In the second Corcoran doubled and Steln-

Heine Peltz singled, bringing Corcoran home.
Wicker attempted to catch Peita at first
and threw wild, allowing Stelnfeldt to score

he ran seventh In a still wor race and was

He worked fat prior to these races and

spite of all these things, they Just backed

ALL SAINTS SOAKED THE BETTERS
All Salnts's race gave the "sucker" bet
tors a fit on Saturday. Thej did not recog
nize the fact that she was In out of her
distance at seven furlong", and In a field of
fit beginntrs. All Saints Is very often out
of place. In the flrt place, Mr. Dainger
fleld ! dead luckv to be able to get her Into
a felling race. She properly belongs among
the handicap horses. Lady Strathmore.
Peaceful. Jlaxlmus and that lot. Only one
occasion has given a taste of her real qual
ity. Then she was not half let out She
Is a mare that breaks up races. You can
not bet on her or on another horse In a race
where she Is a competitor. She Is a mare
of hlgh-clas. Her owner Is not getting
work out of her In winning purses. Of
course, she has won several times at nice
odds In fields where she had no business
being entered A few hundred dollars placed
at 5 to 1 means many a purse.
Concertina, the other member of the Daln
gerfleld stable, has been as Inconsistent as
All Saints. One day she galops home han
dily and under extreme restraint In front
of Preclselv. A few davs later Precisely
beats her a block. It was plain that she I

So far tho royal purple pink sleeves and

WHY ARE THESE STABLES CONSIST-
EXT. I
Talking of Inconsistency It Is pleasant to I
speak of consistency. Look at the stable I
of W. W. Darden & Co. Why Is It so con- I
sistent? The horses are good, the Jockey Is
good ana tne owners are always trj inz.
Look at the Schrelber stable. It Is the
same way. Look at the Hayes stable, at the
McCarren stable. The hores of these
stables are Just as liable to the Ilia and to
the changes to which horseflesh Is heir, to
bad luck In races, to bad rides, to every-
tning. i et wny are tney so consistent!
Put aside all this corn-cob logic about luck
and the horse not belpg; a machine, and
hard fortune in races, and this, that and the
other thing. The Darden, Schrelber. McCar
ren horses are Just as liable to all these
things as any others.
The great secret of their consistency Is
that they are trying, trjlng. all the time
trying Pass up the luck and the old stale
stuff about "do jou feel good every day?
No. Ain't there some days you feel better
than other"? So Is it with a horse."
Men who work know one thing. Whether
they feel good or bad If they have to do
so much work every day. If they have got
to do It. they do It, So It Is with a horse
If he has cot to do. he will do 1L Of
course In horses and men there are excep
tional cases. On the whole when the one
or the other is made to do It he does, feel
ing gocd or bad.
Consistency is a mere matter of trying.
That Is ajl. Are not Lady Strathmore.
Crimean. Brulare, A. D. Gibson, J. Sidney
Walker, Dewey, Schwalbe, Wallabaut.

races, to be badly ridden, to take odd
notions, etc.. as All Saints. Concertina.

The feature of the racing at the Fair
Grounds this week will be the runnlnir of
the historic Club Members' Handicap, next
Saturday afternoon. This stake has always
been run on the first Saturday In June since
1S92, when It was established Some of the
greatest thoroughbreds In the history of
the American turf hae won this stake.
Wadsworth beat Aloha in the first Club
Members' Handicap, and the great Morello
showed the way home for Ray S. and other
good ones In 1S93. Ray S. finished second
again in im. oeing placed to Yo Tambien,
the only mare that ever succeeded In capturing-
the stake. Clifford won the Club
Members' Handicap of 1895. shouldering ths
terrific Impost of 123 pounds and stepplns:
the mile and a quarter In 2:06 flat. This
time still stands as the track record as well
as the record for the race. Wadsworth's
ciud jiemwn ianuicap was- the most val
uable In the history of the stake. This year
It will be worth more than it has been In
many years. The association adds O.000 and
horsemen have supported the stake so lib
erally that the Indications are it will be
worth In the Immediate neighborhood of
Ar-pntarees for the ttake are due to-day.
Maxlmus. Lady Strathmore and the 3-year-olds
Terra Flrma and Dewey are In gralt
favor with horsemen to win the stake, but
if Monograph Is shipped here from Brook
lyn to start, the 3 of Margrave will
probably go to the pot a strong favorite.
This horse belongs to Will Have", a
brother of the redoubtable T P Hayes.
Monograph ran a magnificent race In the
Brooklyn Handicap and Is thought to be
the best Western horse shown In the Hart
this spring. Captain R. R, Rice has been

Commenting upon the battle. Macon Mc
Coni.lck. the well-known pugilistic wrlt'r,
Etntes that there never was a p-ricd in the
fight at which a referee would t.ot have
awarded the verdict to Daughertv Had de
cisions been permitted In Pnlladelphla Dix
on lasted the six rounds and tnat is about
all that can be spoken of his showing In the
bout
Daughertj Is reallj a legitimate bantam In
the trae sense of the word and he Is un
doubted! the best man under llv pounds In
the country at present. He l- a clever little
tighter and was fighting men of greater
weight when he met Forbes here and when
he fought Tommj Feltz In Philadelphia, as
well as when he met Dixon last week At
lie pounds he has a clear title to the cham
pionship. Charlej McKeever of Philadelphia and
"Philadelphia" Jack O'Brien will meet to
night for tho third time in thele home cit.
The men have fousht two luttle". with the
result In O'Brien's favor, but McKeever is
persevering and has hucceeded in getting
Jack to weigh In at VX pounds at 6 o'clock.
Although McKeever Is quite a clever boxer.
It appears as If O'Brien should surel best
him.
O'Brien Is the boxer whom James J. Cor
bett mentioned whllo in this city as a. likely
sparring partner for himself In case he
ciincheci a match with Jeffries or F1tzim
mons for next fall Since his return from
England. O'Brien has shown himself capa
ble of holding his own with all the lightere
of his weight who wero ont aiainst him
here, and he appears a trifle too strong a
proposition for McKeever.
That Young Corbett's experience as a
theatrical attraction was rejionsilile for his
poor showing against Kid Broad Is tho
theory advanced by a New York pugilistic
writer. This critic does not believe that
Corbett showed his real abilltj In that con
test, but thinks that the pernicious effects
of his starring tour so lowered his form tha:
he failed to stop Broad as h's admirers
hoped he would dn
While It Is generally ndmitte 1 that theatri
cal life Is most deleterious to pugllsits. and
that the decline In man a boxer's flstl5
ability may be laid to a career on the stage,
the majority of ring followers are more in
clined to ascribe Corbett's showing to lack
of condition from failure to train than to
stage life. The impression that he held
Hroad too cheaply Is zencral. and it Is
thought he will make a better showing; on
his next appearance.
The morning aflcr the battle Corbett ad
mitted In a statement to tho Denver Post
that he had put up a poor tight and that It
was one of his "off" nights. Whether his
offlhness' was caused by too hilarious an
,? lln?a just before the bout the champion
failed to say.
Jimmy Britfs victory over George La
ylgne at San Francisco last Thursdav even
ing has resulted In the winner becoming an
important factor In light-weight fighting
circles, and he Is now considered a cham
pionship poselbllitv b Ms friends, although
the average patron of boxing will wlh to
see further proofs of his nblllt. One re
sult of the contest howeie-. will probably
be the retirement of Lavlgne from the ring,
as his arm was broken In three places In
the course of the bout
In a review of the contest in a San Fran
cisco paper, the following account appear"
Brltt In all the rounds exept the first two
was manifestly the superior In quickness
and In punishing power. His device of
adopting the crouching tactics, of Jeffr'es,
aayancing his left shoulder, made it impos
sible fOB Lavfcne tn reach hla linr n-lH
either right or left swing. Again and again
Lavlgne m'ssed him but one or two Inche3
with blows that would have resulted In a
knockout. It seemed as though Lavlgne
was as heavily muscle-bound as Sharkey,
for he could not land a straight punch
After the second round Brltt did all the
leading. He landed the only clean b'ows op
rrouth and face, and In the fourth round be
brought blood from the Kid's mouth After
that round he adopted the tactics of rush'ng
In savagely with straight left-hand punches
on the wind and over thehe-rt, blows which
evidently had great punlhlng power In
the last round, after a series or clinches and
rallies. In which Brltt hod all the best of It.
the yowng fellow- cut loose forced the vet
eran against the ropes ard landed blow
after blow In the face and neck. Lav-lane
was groggy and would have evident! gona
out In half a minute had not his brother
rushed In and thrown up the sponge. After
the fight Lavlgne said
"My arm did not seem badly sprained,
but I felt as though muscle-bound, and
I could not reach Brltt, no matter how
hard I tried. He was In like a flash with
a punishing blow, and then out again be
fore I could lard with either right or left."
Th's victory over Lavlgne puts Brltt far
up in the llght-wylght cla-s His next fight
will probably be with George McFadden.
In June. Brltt said. "My seconds, told me
to be careful of Lavlgne after even- round,
as the old man was veo foxy, but I paw
that I could hit him at will, and after the
third round I cut out the pace"
Lavlgne has been flghtln- for about fif
teen jear". and was Ion known as the
rzost terrible puntsher of his weight In the
rnp His victory over Joe Walcott was an
Indication of his ability In the punching
line. His most celebrated blow was his
kidney punch, coupled with his left stomach
punch, which operated unfavorably for his
opponents on manv occasion"
A paragraph in the Cincinnati Enquirer
concerning Joe Choynskl read3 as follows;
Joo Chon"kl. who was In town last week
Jiving sparring exhibitions with Marlon
Hart. Is well acquainted with Eddie Grea
ney, ihfj San Francisco sporting mnn s
lected""to referee the coming championship
battle between Jim Jeffries and Bob Fltz
slmmons next July. In fact Chovnskl and
Greancy started In as amateur boxers to
gether on the coast. Joe says that when
they were kids together they used to stand
around on the corners talking boxing. The
coppers got after them, however, and broke
up the outdoor sessions and they Joined an
athletic club They boxed at tournaments
together, and Choynskl still has a (rold
watch and several diamond-studded medal"
he won as an amateur.
"Do you know why so many people call
me the old war horse?" said Joe ths otte
nlght. "Well. I'll tell you." he continued

"I was champion of th Pacific Coast
when I was 17. One of the first men I ever
boxed was Con Rlordan. who died In the
East after boxing Bob Fitz-lmmons. The
first pair of tights I ever wore were pre
sented to me by a big fellow who Just came
off the high seas. He was a sailor, and they
called him the Tipton Slasher." When I
whipped him, he pulled off the tights and
handed them to me. He said I would some
day make a great fighter. The funniest part
of It all was that I did not think that I
could fight at all when I was an amateur.
I guess I must have knocked out half a

It waa my punching; ability that old It- At

after awhile I got onto the fact that It was
all on the square, and I could not sloep at
nights thinking of what a great fighter I
would be if I could keep It up. When I
fought Jim Corbett on a. barge at Fflco

The peculiar kind of sword plav- still used

be held In Greece only now and then, oth
er countries Being chosen from time to
time German collegiate fencing Is a game
rather than a dangerous form of sword
pla. which Is not a nundred vears old. hav
ing been introduced during the former hair
of the last cer.turv to prevent death by the
sword duels then In vogue It has become
the fashion and though cuts on the face and
hands are sometimes serious, a a rule,

passport to the man who bears It. showing
that he was a member of one of the ex
