Washington lost to Brooklyn yesterday in a nest remarkable six-inning game by tho close score of 9 to 10. Owing to delays by showers of raiu over two hours wore consumed in playing six innings, and Umpire Stage called tho game on account of darkness despite the strenuous protest of Captain Joyce and his men. There was certainly sufficient light to hao continued play, but Mr. Stage could not see it that w ay. Dut there had been plenty of action, as far as tho game progressed, to re pay tho 2,400 spectators for their attendance, as they were treated to an exhibition of good and bad pitching, good and bad fielding, and Eorao rattling good batting. Jioth sides participated in this combination, but tho Senators made n gallant uphill strug gle, collared and passed the visitors, and then fell back just as ictory seemed assured. Seven runs in tho opening inning gave tho Brooklyns an apparent cinch on tho game, but tho local players kept up their courage and when tho lirst half of tho sixth inning had ended, they were one run to the cause. At this stago of the proceedings many of the spectators started to leavo counting in the game ns being sato for Washington. The Brooklyn, however, took advantage of op portunities offered to score two runs in their half, which again gave them tho lead. The umpire did not call tho game then, but waited until the sido had been retired before taking action. It was just as dark when tho winning run came in as a few minutes afterwards, nnd Mr. Stage should have permitted the seventh inning to be commenced, even if it could not be llnished. Outside of this break the champion sprinter made a splendid impression, his decisions be ing given promptly and were correct. When Daub interfered with Selbach while the latter was running to first ho quietly cautioned Daub not to do so again, and he succeeded in closing Ward's mouth when tho bases were vacant. He is quick and always on the go, and thy only unkind remark, was tho advico of a spectator to get his hair cut. This little attempt at pleasantry was caused by the flow ing locks which fluttered in the brcezo as Stage shook his head to express a man not being out. It is altogether probablo not more than three innings could have been played if Petty nnd Daub had continued in tho game. The first named started off by giving a baso on balls, hitting "Needles" f outz in tho ribs and being batted for two singles and three doubles, which, in connection with errors by Joyce and Abbey, yielded the Brooklyns seven full-grown runs. This was enough for Mr. Petty and Esper was called to take his place. Esper pitched a strong gome up to the sixth inning, when tho visitors wcro lucky in bunching a couple of bits, thereby winning the game. It was pretty tough on Esper to start in with such a handicap, and he did nobly. Daub was as wild as a March hare, and was replaced by Stein at the end of tho fourth inniug. It was only the anxiety of McGuire to hit tho ball in tho third and fourth Innings which prevented Daub from forcing in runs. Sttlu was hit hard, especially in tho sixth, and bo was dead lucky in getting away vv ith tho game. Jim McGuiro gave the best exhibition of throwing to bases seen this year. Ho nailed two men at second and one at third, and but for Sullivan's muff, would have caught an other. His triplo in tho sixth w.i3 a thing of joy. and it brought joy to tho hearts of tho cranks. Manager bclfmoh: made a change in tho make-up of tho team by shifting Selbach to center and putting Hassamaer in right. The latter had a great chance to save tho game by collaring Tredway's fly in the last inning, but just missed getting to tho ball. Ward started off with a hit and scored on Joyce's out and Abbey's single to right. Tho latter tried to make second on the throw In. but was called by Kinslow's good throw. McGuiro singled and errors by Shock and Daly gav o Sullivan a life, but Hasamaer's liner to Daly prevented further runs. After Dal- had fouled out Griffin reached first on balls and Trcdway hit for a base. Toutz was hit and Burns nnd Shindlo followed with doubles. Joyce overthrew to first in fielding Shock's grounder and Tom Kinslow cracked out a double. Daub struck out, but Daly singled, bringing in Kinslow with tho seventh run. Griffin Hied to Selbach. Esper replaced petty and Foutz scored in the second on a triplo and Shindies' single. The locals iailed to talley in this inning, but got in three in the third on bases on balls to Ward, Joyce, and Abbey, a wild pitch nnd errors by Daly and Tredwny. Esper left threomen on bases on his weak hit to Daub. Tho Senators bagged two more in the fourth In a base on balls to Ward, Joyco's double nnd successive outs. Tho visitors did not score after tho second until tho ixth, when things became mighty interesting as tho locals also took n hand in tho rungctting. Abbey reached first on Bhoeh's fumblo nnd scampered homo when McGuiro slammed tho ball to left center for three bases. Sullivan went out at first, but Hassamcer singled, and Selbach followed with a three-bagger to left. Tho latter was thrown out at tho plate on Cartwright's grounder because he roiused to slide and Esper filed to left. With the Brooklyn's one run behind Kinslow started with a single, but was forced by Stein. Daly fouled out, but Griffin's hard liner got away from Sullivan and Tredway's long ily to right went over Hassamncr's head; bringing in two runs. Poutz fled to Selbach, and tbo umpire colled tho game. Tho seoro: vroiNGT n. ma ron isaoosLTV. nlKro a e Ward,'.'!)... 3 10 3 0 D.-lr.Ub.... 0 2 2 3 2 Jovcr.Sb.. 2 111 lGriCln, cf... 2 1 S 0 0 Abbey.

They won from Baltimore, and a great crowd saw them do it. 'Notwithstand ing the rain 18.700 peoplo passed through the grtcs at tho Polo grounds. It was certainly a. most remarkable attendance considering I iire n""', -" uviuuusnaieu lunytno great 'increase of interest in the gamo in this tity. (Vrboso who sat on the bleachers found their umbrellas handy, bhortly after 3 o'clock the New York and Baltimore teams, headed by the Sixty-ninth Begiment bond, came march ing down the field in the ram, and so en thusiastic was tho crowd that the musio of the band was drowned. At 4 o'clock Umplro Lynch appeared on the field and Mayor Qih-oy threw a new ball down from one of the private boxes. CapL Ward wisely went first to the bat, as It was raining hard and he thought McMahon would not be able to control tbo ball. He was right In his supposition, for Murphy and Ward got to first on balls. Then McMahon slipped on tho grass and failed to handle Van Ualtrcn's bunt hit. With tbo bases filled, Tiernan singled, sending home Murphy and Ward, Davis forced. Tier son out at second, and then Connor hit for two bases, scoring Von Haltren and Davis. On Burke's single Connor scored, Besult: 5 runs. At this point the rain ceased and New York had all tho advantage. Buslo pitched a pretty game, and tho Orioles were unablo to catch up." The features wero Robinson's catching, Farrcll's work on foul flies. Davis' hit over the right fiold ropes into tbo crowd, and a top by Murphy back of third base. The game was called at the end of tho eighth inning on acoount of darkness. Many prominent peo ple wero present, Senator David B. Hill among them. Nearly ono hundred shorrters from Baltimore came over on a special train. Ssoro: .1EW T0BX. R IB ro A X BALTIMORE.

The disastrous second inning seemed to take the life out of Stivetts. as out of the eight runs scored only one was earned.

Tebcau's Cleveland Spiders opened their series of tho season here with a defeat, the result of decidedly superior playing on tho port of Browns. The homo team opened up tho first half of their inning with four runs and from that timo they were never headed. The only run of tho Tigers was mado in the sixth inning on an error by Ely in fumbling a throw to second.

Sullivan threw away a chance to save the gamo by letting GrhUn's Unor get away from him. There was nothing the matter with Esper's pitching considering the handicap he started with. President Byrne, of the Brooklyn club, is with tho team, and was pleased with the victory, al though disappointed at the poor playing of his men. By losing yesterday's game the Senators dropped to eleventh place, being passed by Brooklyn. Anson's Chicago colts ore still in last position. TO PASS ON ROAD RECORDS Claims for Noteworthy Cycle Perform ances Subject to Approval. LOCAL MEN CAN BE PROTECTED Century Cycle Club of Maryland One of the Latest Organiiations to Appoint a Com mittee to Becaiveand Pass Upon Claims for Boad Becords Washingtonians Eligible. In view of the extensive interest mani fested in road and cross-country riding by a greut majority of oyclists tho past season, and the numerous aspirants constantly clamoring for recognition for some noteworthy perform ance of long and short distance covered over the country roads in remarkably fast time, tho necessity has been very apparent of es tablishing some representative committee or board for tho purpose of receiving and pass ing upon claims presented to them from time to time. And if sufficient evidence accom panied such a claim tho committeo bo author ized to allow and keep on record all such claims, to bo used for the protection of such olaimant in turn until their respectho per formances wero outclassed. AVhcrevcr such committees havo operated thoy have been suc cessful in settling all disputes, and thereby cause greater interest to bo taken in this class of sport and see that no record holder is unjustly deprived of his claims.. Tho Century Cycle Club of Maryland is ono of tho latest organizations to tako steps in this matter. This club is composed of mem bers from individual clubs in Maryland, and is open to membership from the District No one can be accredited to the club, however, who has not ridden his century within tho prescribed limit of time. The club has a very largo and representative membership. Dur ing tho past Winter a carefully selected com mittee from the older members of the club was chosen and elected for tho purpose of receiv ing and passing opinion on all claims for road records made in the state. Anyone familiar with tho names of tho committeo will rocog nlzo the fact that they are abovo reproach, and will do their work conscientiously nnd without favor. Tho committeo is composed of the following named gentlemen: John T. Brooks, chairman; Albert Mott, A. C. Willi son. and F. W. Kirk. Tho resolution under which this committoo was appointed roads as follows: That tho committee record speed perform ances made on the road over accurately sur veyed distances, or on routes of general Interest between well defined points, without regard to exact distances; provided, that the road record committee shall roceh e from the promoters of road events. In which records are claimed to be made, cortifled statements within thirty days after the events occur that the distances have been correctly measured by surveyors, or in case of records being claimed over certain routes. Irrespective of distance, that the starts aud finishes havo occurred at specified Klnts, and in both cases they shall receive the state ment of at least two, and, if possible, three timekeepers present at tho start and tTvo, and. If possible, three timekeepers at the finish, certi fying that the times claimed aro correct and that the watches wore compared and their ac curacy as timepieces established before tho start; and provided, further, the fact is estab lished that checkers were stationed so as to pre clude any questions as to distances covered. No cyclist with a claim which he wishes to put on record for any specifled distance need havo any fear of sending it to this board for tbeir official sanction niter having compiled with tho above resolution. As a road record made with Washington as a starting point cannot bo mado oer but very little territory ln3lde the District line, nnd in nearly ovcry instanco is almost entirely ridden over Mary land soil, this committee will havo control 6f Washington claimants to a great extent as well as thoso in Baltimore and outlying dis tricts. For an instanco, the record course usually followed over the conduit road is only one-third tho distance insido the District line, the remainingtwo-thlrds leing through Mary land; therefore records made over this courso aro much moro Maryland records than Dis trict ones, though usually credited to both Etato and District All tho recent 24-hour record rlde3 wero not only ridden by a large per cent, of mlle ago over Maryland soil, but wero actunlly llnished in that state. The attention of this committee was recently called to this fact, and somo records claimed by Washington riders havo already been handed to the com mittee for their approval. The fact of a rec ord having been mado within a reosonablo time before this committee wai) uppointed will not bar the snmo from the.r sanction, proUdodthe evidence presented with any such claim conforms to tho resolution under which tho committeo was appointed. Communications to this committeo should bo nddressed to "Record Committee C. C. C, 1G20 W. Lanvalo street. Baltimore. Md. Mr. L. C. Wahl, tho Washington cjclist who claims n number of District and Maryland records, has forwarded his claims to the road records committee for their sanction and ex- Eresses tho deslru that any rider claiming to ave eclipsed any ono of tho rocords made by him shall at onco present thoir claims to the record committee, as they are sure to reccivo impartial investigation, and thereby settla all disputes nnd arguments. Furthermore, it is safe to assert that uo record mado in tbo past, or to be mado in the future, will be recognized by any fair-minded person which has not received tho sanction and approval of this road record committeo.

The Grand Control Palaeo at the corner of Fourty-third street nnd Lexington avenue hold three thousand people to-night who were there to witnoss a four round boxing contest between Eddio Pierce, who has boxod George Dixon, tho colored light weight champion and Walter Edgerton, the "Kentucky Rosebud," who knockod Dixon out in Philadelphia last week bo a chanco blow. Both men wero in excel lent condition, and at catch weights.

GIRLS AS ATHLETES. Carroll Institute Ladies' Class Showed Their Ability to Turn Handsprings. The match game of basket ball which was played at tho Carroll Institute, Thursday afternoon, by tho members of the ladies' class, passed off most successfully, and it was doubtful which enjoyed themselves moro, tho audience or the players. Tho sterner sex wcro rigorously excluded. Previous to the gamo tho regular class exercises were gone through. Tho oxercisos followed each other rapidly, varied occasionally by spoclal "tricks" by the star members of the class, such as climbing tho pole, making birds' nests, skinning the cat, turning back somersaults off tho parallel bars, etc., which wero performed with great proficiency, as indeed was everything under taken by the class. A potato race proved exciting, being so closely contested, and resulted in a victory for tho tall captain of the white ties. Prof. Joyce did himself up both literally and figuratively. With a glass of water on his forehead, he performed tricks which held tho audience spellbound. Tho only trick with water attempted by the girls was the emptying of a large water cooler by dipping glass and hands "indiscriminately into its cooling depths. The gamo of bosket ball was the piece do resistance, the sides being distinguished by the color of their ties, red or white. If scrambling counts for anything, then they may lay the flattering unction to their souls that for onco they were completely succe-s-ful. At first it seemed n grand potpourri of girls, ball, Turkish trousers, hairpins and howls, varied only by the removal of the scrimmago to other quarters of the gymna sium. As neither side scored a point, it is probnble that tho audience is still in doubt as to tho object in stationing a small boy at each basket. That girls can keep a ball moving was clearly demonstrated, the failure to score be ing duo solely to tho excellent work of "in terfering" done by both sides. After two rounds tho gamo was called u draw. The participants retired in ciuet of praise and Pond's Extract, and tho audience departed, deeply impressed with tho enthusiasm as well as the science of the class who give to Car roll Institute a unanimous vote of thanks for their kindness in opening to the women of Washington a placo where they may grow strong, graceiui and happy.

A short, compactly built man, with a heavy blonds moustache, took a toboggan slide down Lookout mountain the other afternoon. Ho went via tho incline, and made the trip from the Point hotel to the engine-house, a distance of 4,500 feet, in three and one-half minutes, which is just one-third the time it takes a car to descend. Fully one hundred peoplo saw him make the lightning-like de scent, and .all were greatly excited. Tho nervy coaster, however, was as cool as the proverbial cucumber, and upon reaching tho foot of the mountain, walked away as coolly as though it had taken him an hour to de scend. About o'clock tho coaster appeared at the Point bote! with what appeared to be a block of wood about eight inches square under his arm. On one side of tho block was a steel horseshoe, in the curve of which was a small flanged wheel. Tho othersideottheblockwas slightly conclave. Tho block was put on the outside rail of tho incline, the wheel fitting close, nnd tho horns of the horseshoe were on either side. Then the man put a heavy glove on his right hand, nnd, sitting down on tho block, started down the mountain without moro ado. Ho held his feet crossed straight and be fore him, and rested them on tho iron rail. For a few feet tbo little one-wheeled car moved slowly, and then tho speed increased until it and its human freight were going down tho mountain at a rato that mado tho spectators hold their breath. When a curve was reached tho coaster slowed up slightly by pressing his heels against the rails and steadied himself by touching the cable with his gloved hand. Finally, when ho reached the very heavy grade just above the engine-house, he took oil all brakes and came down like a shot out of a gun. Arriving at tho bottom he put on the "heel" brakes and gently camo to a stop just in the depot Coolly rising from his queer vehicle he placed it under his arm and walked quietly away before any of the astonished spectators had a chanco to recover their breath or ask any questions. Major Moore to the Police. Malor Moore, chief of police, yesterday issued to the members of tho force the following general order: "Your numbors will be increased temporarily, and it Is expected that mombers of the thus augmented force will conduct themselves with that discretion, at all times, as will merit tho expectations of the community and reflect credit upon the department "Kemembor that you are serving the peoplo and should conduct yourselves as gentlemon.

Tho novelty of thirty young women on the stago in burned cork as minstrels was witnessed here to-night in Herman's Terraco Garden Theater. The women were the regulation wigs and costnmo of the male artist except that a skirt covered the limbs. They made a successful show. The performers are members of a charity society,and tho proceeds of tho entertainment will be devoted to a benevolent purpose. The jokes were good nnd new,and tho plantation songs and melodies were rendered with as much effect as tbo male artist in the minstrel line could give it and the dances were clever imitations of the southern darkey. The enter tainment was a big success. Department Notes. Edwin C. Fowler, of Maryland, chief clerk in tho ofilce of tho First Assistant Postmaster Gen erat and who has been in tho ofilce sinco lb69, has resigned. Secretary J.

FOR AN INVESMENT. tt TOPICS FOR HOME AND THE HOUSEHOLD, Baisln tea is a very wholesome and refresh ing drink for children, and easily prepared. Procure halt a pound of raisins, and on them pour dve pints of boiling water. Boil all to gether till the fluid is reduced to four pints, strain, place in a glass jug and squeeze tho juice of half a lemon into it Isinglass is very strengthening, and should be introduced as much as possible into the food of delicate people. For this purpose the fine white isinglass should be used, as it dis solves so quickly. When a man helps his wife with her work she has to stop what she is doing and wait on him. The cracks in loaves are caused usually by too much flour being used in the kneading, making the loaf too stiff. When the batter is set at night sufficient flour is added to make it pour thickly from a spoon. In the morn ing, when kneading, only enongh flour should be added to keep the dough from sticking to the hands and the board, and practice in kneading makes this quantity much less than at the first trial. Bread should beturned in the oven while baking, so that all sides may be baked equally or bo exposed to equal heat, as this sometimes makes the cracks. Tailor-made mothers buy suits for their small boys with an extra pair of knee breeches, but in ordering their own clothes they get two vests. In a cloth suit a woman is dressed for any and every occasion. With the proper waistcoat she can go on deck, to a wedding, up a mountain, to a tea, or into the king's castle. A breakfast relish Fry cold hominy in butter or drippings and serve red hot, with cold stewed prunes and a bit of meat Tea and coffee, so long frowned down, ar about to have their innings. A physician has given evidence that tho former is a cure for neuralgia in Its simplest form, and that th latter, taken with lemon juice, "brings peaoe to the sufferer from malarial chills." Why Hill Envies Gorman. From the Now York Recorder. The only man in publlo life whom D. B. Hill envies is Arthur P. Gorman. There is something about the smooth llarylander la which Hill feeb himself to be lacking and the possession of which he is confident would make him absolutely invincible as a politi cian. Hill can fight, but he cannot conciliate. Gorman's strong point is conciliation, but ha cannot fight So tho New Yorker envies him and at the samo time holds him In a degree ot contempt. He admires him extravagantly for his political capacity, but his admiration is mixed with exasperation at the meagerness of his accomplishment. "If I had Gorman's faculty." he said tha other day, "and possessed his influence in the Senate, I would yield to no man in anything. If Gorman possessed a grain of courage whit could he not do?" Boston Brown Bread. To make Boston brown bread you win need a pint and a half of Indian meal, the same quantity of rye meal, halt a cupful ot molasses, two pints and a halt of sweet milk, a teaspoonful of salt, and a teaspoonful of soda. Mix the two kinds of meal together. Dissolve the soda in half a cupful ot milk, and stir into the rest ot the milk, then add the salt and molasses. Give these Ingredients a thorough mixing, nnd pour them upon the mixed meal. Beat vigorously the batter thus formed, and tnrn it into two well-buttered brown-bread tins. Steam for five hours. On Sunday morning heat for breakfast by steam ing for a little while. Delicious toast may be made from this bread. Industry All Around. From tho Chicago Dally Tribune. "I'd like to go and see them industrial sol diers march through town," said the Pennsyl vania farmer, regretfully, "but I can't get enough men to do my Spring mowin.
