Coinhkey's Men rtcatrn In nn ExcltliiR Contest Miller Pitched Effectively nml tlio Tenm Hatted AVcll The Cin cinnati Hcils Will Play Here To-Day Diamond Dust. After suffering eleven straight defeats the Nationals concluded It was time to put a cleat on tho iv(g$anand, forn time at least, call a hall . ,. the downward career. Accordingly Miller wni sent for nnd put into tho points, witli tho expecta tion that ho would prove the stumbling block in tho victorious career of Comis key's men. Nor was tho hopo unfounded, for tho Jcrsoyman pitched such excellent ball and tho team behind him did such excellent work at tho bat that tho homo team pulled off a victory. It took tho lend from tho start and was never headed, although coming into the stretch the Drowns made n gallant effort to overhaul the leader, but wcro unsuccessful. Miller's good work was tho feature of a very interesting contest, and the men be hind him, although thoy did somo wo fully ragged fielding, bnttcd well and op portunely. The Nationals started off by making four runs In the first inning, and followed it up with four more in the third, when f'omiskey took out McGill and substituted his star pitcher, Stivctts. After this the batting decreased, but tho local men mado enough hits, and, with tho assistance of tho Drowns' errors, ptdlcd two moro tallies out, making tho total ten. Miller let up In his pitching after victory was assured, ami tho men from the Mound City managed to get six runs to add to tho two they already had, but they wero mi nute to reacn tuc total 01 tnc .nationals.

President Wagnor, ho says, agreed to make himself responsible for tho amount at tho time of the transfer, and tho $C00 is claimed as an unpaid bal ance on me account. Tho Nationals need strengthening. In their present condition they handicap the American Association. It has been tho policy of the organization since the break iroin the national ngrcemct to assist the weaker clubs, but there seems to be no in clination to help tho Wa9hlngtons.

Tin: CiUTic-Rrcoiii) would like to sug gest n reasonable theory that would prove of incalculable advantago and tremend ous enhancement in valuo of a certain section of Southeast Washington, now most grievously isolated on account of tho network of tracks of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad that territory lying to tho south of said road situated between Fifth and South Capitol streets. Tlio ma jority of tlio travel from this region comes up 1'ourth street nnd New Jersey avenue, nnd tho proposition is that tho railroad crossings at theso thoroughfares might bo bridged in such manner that equestrian and pedestrian travel would always be safo and uninterrupted. The grading and beautifying of Garfield Park has mado this an especially attractive resort, result ing in much travel over tho New Jersey nvcnuo crossing ot this point. Not only Is this nn exceedingly dangerous crossing but, in addition, most aggravating periods of waiting hnvo often to bo endured by ncrsons in urccnt haste.

Mrs. Walson has been teaching llm nun class for tho past twenty-livo years and when called to the platform said that she had taught the parents of a largo number of those who wcro now pupils in her class, etc. At the conclusion of her re marks the lady, who is a zealous church wqrker, was presented with a handsome chair.
