Foutz remembered the iHiundlng his dark-haired twirler received on last Fri day, and gave him a chance to redeem him self. Eddie took advantage of the oppor tunity and bad the satisfaction of knowing that he was able to defeat the Senatorial aggregation for once. The game was slow, dull and uninteresting, and very few of the fifteen hundred spectators were sorry when it was over. Varney Anderson started in to pitch for the locals, and the way the Bridegrooms sized up his carves was a revela tlon. Every man who came to the bat seemed to have no difficulty in finding his delivery, and the hits came so fast and furious that Schmelz found-it -necessary to replace him with Gilroy after the second Inning. TIDE WAS STEMMED. Tho Washington twirler succeeded In stemming the tide and the boys from the City ot Churches only succeeded in scor ing three runs after he took his place in the box.

The first game was close, and 8,000 people were kept in suspense "until tho last man was out. Both Clarkson and Sullivan were effective, but Boston would have won had it not been for an inexcura blo error by Harrington and other ln ficlders, which let in nins when the side should have been retired.

Dravetcnd, Sept 17. The fall meeting of the Brooklyn Jockey Club began under most fav urabli: circumstances to day. The air was soft and balmy and it was a typical September day. The track was in perfict Ehape for the battle of the giants of the turf. A large crowd took advantage of the weather to see the brilliant programme run off. There was at least 7,0C0 persons present. The attraction was the first special, an allowance event for all agtd hortes, at a mile and a quarter. It drew together ten of the best horses, including the mighty Henry of Navarre, the flyirg black colt -Domino, and the great but erratic Key el anta Anila. In addition Clifford and Sir Walter were thrown In at weights that gave tbcm more than a fightingcliance. When three events had been disposed of the candidates for the first special ap peared. After several false breaks, for which Clifford was to blame, they finally got away in good order. SIR WALTER A8 TASKMASTER. Sir Walter at once took up the role of taskmaster. Taral pursued different tac tics with Domino to-day. Ho endeavored to make a waiting race of It, and kept him in the rear of Clifford. They passed the grand stand the first time with Sir Walter a length and a half before Rey EI Santa Vnlla, who was lapped to the withers by "Henry of Navarre, who was clear of Clif- 1 ford and Domino. This order was maintained to the far "turn. A general closing up began as they negotiated Uie turn, and all but Clifford moved up to Sir Walter. They swung Into he home strctclf, with Sir Walter a neck lothegoodof ReyElSautaAnltaandllenry of Navarre. Domino, as usual, did cot relish waiting tactics. Jle was beaten before the home stretch was reached, and hegaveup the struggle as Konnas they wereheaded for home. Griffin txik matters very calmly with Henry of Navarre. He gradually wore down Sir Walter's lead, and finally -non with com pa rathe ease by a length. CLIFFORD GOT PLACE. Clifford, who came with a superb rush In the. final furlong, wrested the place from Sir Walter by a neck. Sir Walter tired badly. Rey del Santa Anita was a bad fourth, and Domino was eased up In Ibo last half furlong. The time, 2.09, was not sensational. The other big event na the pnigramme to-day was the race for the Holly Handi cap, of the value of $2,000, and it did not result in a triumph for the talent. It was won easily by Een Brush, who was third in demand in the ring. Margrave, the favorite, finished second and Cres cendo third. The Western contingent were heavy winners by Ben Brush's victory.

McCarthy, of the Boston team, has an nounced that he will play no more ball after this season. Clements and Thompson aresaidtobelhe only old men on the Philadelphia" team who are playing up to the'.-.stasdard. There is talk of having special trains run between this city and Baltimore when the cup games aro played in that city. Collins, on receiving President Young's notice that he belonged to Boston and that he must play no more ball with Louisville, swore he would quit the business. The Baltimore people are afraid that their hall grounds will not be big enough to hold the crowds that will want to see the Temple Cup games plaj ed in that city. Only 3,500 people turned out to see the Cle eland Cincinnati game j esterday. At this stage of the proceedings, with the Spi ders hard on the heels of the top club, this looks like small interest. It is said that there will be a shaking up in tho Philadelphia team next Eeason, and there is every reason to believe that a num ber of o jEgftcrs will supplant some of the veterans now making frantic efforts to hold their end up. Brooklyn claims to have morerace tracks than any other city In the world. W. J. Spiers, who owns the great short distance horse, O'Cocnell, is said to be willing to mach him against any horse in the world at any length, from four to seven furlongs. Guy, the famous pacing horse, that a couple of years ago made it warm for Mascot and all the rest ot the top notchers, is now doing country (airs, in the West, and is getting beaten about as often as be wins. Catcher McGuire, of the Warhington team, goes in day In and day odt and does uniformly good work, cays a Philadelphia paper, ne has so far caught in oer 100 championship games, has to handleall kinds of pitching, and docs It with a willingness and cheerfulness as when, as the receiving end of Cacey and -McGuire, be was such a favorite in Philadelphia.

THE FATHER OF PUGILISM. Johnllroughton WiixtheOriulnatorof the Manly Art of SelfDefenMj. John Broughton, whostood 5f eet 1 1 inches and who weighed fourteen stone, has been termed the "Father of theTruly English Art of Eelf-Defcnse." He was champion from 1740 to 1750, and he was the first to draw up any definite rules for the regulation of the prize fight. Ills most distinguished patron was the distinguished Duke of Cumberland, ot the blood royal, who is said to ha vegonedlrectfroniBrocghtou's boxing booth to Culloden and to have gone directly to Broughton's on his return from his own great butchering expedition. It is recorded that the duke once took the pugilist to the continent and asked bis opinion of the Grenadier Guards at Ber lin; and that the champion expressed his readiness to fight the whole regiment, one by one. If he were allowed to eat a breakfast before each battle. Broughton teems to have been a man of a good deal of common sense, and to have fought with his brains as well as with his fists. He was unfortu nate, because too sangulncjn an cncoumitcr with one Jack Slack, however, and he lo't his popularity and bis prestige at one" fell swoop between the eyes. The npble. and right royal duke was his financial lacker on this occasion, and be is reported to have Jeered at the fallen champion, whoe defeat cost bis royal highness 10,000 guinea's. At Brougbton's amphitheater for boxing, otherwise called the "Tottenham Court Nursery," the pugilistic encounters took place upon an uncovered platform in a yard open to the public- street. An adver tisement of this establishment given in full In old and New London Is worth quoting here in part: "A lecture on manhood or gymnastic physiology, wherein the whole theory and practice of the art of boxing will be fully explained by various operations on the animal economy and the principles ot cbampionism, illustrated by pniper experi ments ou the solids and fluids of the body, together with the true method of investi gating the nature of the blows, stops, cross buttocks, eta, Incident to combatants. The whole leading to the most successful method of beating a man deaf, dumb, lame and blind." A foot-note states that "the syllabus or compendium, for the use of students In athletics, run lie bad of Professor Broughton in Market lane, where proper instructions in the-art and practice of IxixiLg are delivered, without the loss of eye or limb to the student." Peter Cunningham preserves the folio wing extract from the London Dally Advertiserof December 11, 1745: "At Proughton's amphitheater this day will be a tremendous decison of manhood between the celebrated champions, James and Smallwood. Note, as tliis contest Is likely to be rendered hor rible with blood and bruises, all Frenchmen are desired to come fortified with a proper quantity of harthorn." The price of generaladmissionis not given, butnoblemen and gentlemen were told that they could obtain tickets for five shillings, "which would admit tbcm into a part ot the bouse appropriated for their better accommoda tion." Broughton died In 1789, "eminently re spected," and in his eighty-fifth year. To-lny' Entries at St. Asaph. . First race Three-year-olds and np; ecII- ing; five-eighths of a mile. Ind. Horse. Wt.

Tcsterday was very much of an off day at the Island track. The attendance was lightas was alsothebettlngandltwassohot that the races were run off In a listless manner. The only good finish of the day was In the second race which waswon by Hazel af ter a hard drive with Lentolia If thelenstn of the stretch. George Taylor had the mount on Lento and rode one of ills old tlm? finishes on him. He brought the horse out of the neck like a Ireak of lightning, and in another Jump would have won the race. ALL WON EASILY. The other events were all won easily with the exception of the doting race, which C. O. D. tcok after a clight fhaklng up at the end. R. Kitg rode Traitor Just about as badly as he could have done. With any other boy on his back the horse would have had no difficulty in winning. King not only got away badly, but be messed the boree all over the track, got shut out on both of the turns, and then rode a weak finish. Jennie T appeared to be the best of the poor field that faced the starter in the opening race, but the certainly was not an even money chance. There was a hot tip on her, however, and the closed at that price The winner turned up in Eddie M , who led from the head of the stretch, and won easily Tedd Gegg made all the running in the second event, and looked a winner all over whea the horses struck the far turn. LASTED LONG ENOUGH. He stopped to-day, however, and tho finish narrowed down between Hazel and Lento, the former lasting long enough to gel the decision. Owing to a report that she could not go the distance. Mid R ose was not very heavily played in the two-yeaj old race. Sheseemed to put class her field, but as good as 7 to 5 could be had against her when she went to the post. She opened up a big gap at the fall of the flag, and they never caught her. Jersey was at first quoted favorit in tlie fourth race, but ir heavy plunge on Forest sent him to the post a 4 to 5 favorite . He was a handy winner at the end from Harry Kiester, with Jersey third. The fifth race was simply a gallop for Foundling, who was a 1 to 3 chance. He drew away and won when he pleased from Prince John . C. O. D. took the closing race in great st)!e. He made one ot ills cyclone finUbes and won by three parts of a length from Traitor. Joyejse made all tile running, but topped badly and finished third. Results at Alexander Island. Weather clear.
