DEFIES HOME BOWLERS
Test Cricketers’ First Match of Tour
Is Drawn on Wet
Wicket.
(Paris Times Spécial)
LONDON, Friclay.—Tlie Australian
cricketers played the first match ot
their English tour yesterday on the
pieturescme country-house grouncl be-
longing to Mr. H." M. Martineau at
Holyport. Rain liad preveated a hall
from hein g bowled on the prévit» us.
day, and the game liad to be con-
fined to one day as the Colonial team
leaves îor Leicester this afternoon
to play the County to-morrow.
Although there was little sun. the
wicket had dried sufticieïitly for a
start to be niade soou after eleven,
by which time a crowd of several
thousands had taken advautage ol !
Mr. Martineau’s generouS offer to
throw the ground open to the public.
His luck in the .spin of the coin once
again favored “Horseshoe” Collins,
and he elected to let his side bat
first. Mr. M. Falcon led his Minor
Counties XI on the field to the ac-
compartiment of a round o£ cheers,
and the Englishmen were immediately
followed by the Australian captain
and his deputy, Bardsley, to open the
first tûurists’ innings on English soil.
Bardsley took first knock, and had
the honor of scoving the first run off
Falcon, who shared the bowling with
Meyer. The bail was inclined to jump
considerably on the sticky wicket,
and botte Collins and Bardsley found
Falcon extremely difficuit to play.
Hetlierton relieved .Meyer early, and
the change brought about the down-
fall of the Australian skipper, who
vas neatly caught by Edwards,
Bardsley Stumped.
Macartney followed, and the little
‘'Governor-Generar isoon settleci
dowu. A smart pièce of work by ;
Franklin behind the stumps lost
Bardsley his wicket at 42, for which
he had to play more carefully than !
usnal. Soon afterwards Macartney
got in front of a bail from Hazelton,
and was dismissed for 18. Taylor
i'ell to the same bowler at 4 imme
diately after lunch, which arrived
with the score at 97 for 3.
Falcon was giving the batsmen any
amouut of trouble. Woodfull was the
next. to go by putting a neat catch
to Côlman off the English skipper.
Ryder and Ponsford stuck together
for sonie while, the former indulging
in some frée hitting at times, until
Ponsford was clean bowled by Falcon.
Arthur ïticharson got a ‘‘blob,” and
Oldfield followed suit, bot h wickets
falling to Falcon. Gregory and Grim-
niétt could do very little against tte®
same bowler, whose average sbowed
the.very fine figures of 7.for 42. To
capture seven Test players’ wickets
six apiece was. a splendid perfor
mance on the part of Falcon, and he
received a great ovation on veturning
to the pavilion. as did also Ryder fo*‘
carrying out his bat for the highest
score.
Englishmen Hit Ouf.
Buchanan and Ferens- opened the
Minor Counties innings, but the lat-
tèr was dismissed early off Gregory.
Colman then came in, and started
lashing out, sending Richardson to
the bounuary twice in one over. Old
field brought off a smart catch which
sent Buchanan back, and Ling joined
the old Oxford “Blue” Both players
found Gregory a bit troublesome, but
they hit ont in spirited fashion
against Macartney and Grimmett.
Ryder held a hot return from Ling,
and Crawley and Falcon fiuished out
the innings until stumps were pul’ed.
leaving the match drawn.

NEW YORK, Friday.—Herbert L.
Stone, Chairman of the Bermuda
Océan Race Committee, announces
that lie expects to bave the entry
of Iïarry Pidgeon, the lowa navi
gator who recently circumnavigated
the world single-handed in the yawl
Islander, which he constructed him-
self at Los Angeles.
Pidgeon lias tojd Stone that he
exuects to be in /New York waters
at the time of the race and if so
he would be g lad to enter the Is
lande!/ and sai'l lier alone against
the other boats in the fleet. The
Bermuda race, a deep-sea thrash of
660 nautical miles to St. David’s
Head, outside Hamilton, will start olï
New London on Sunday, June 20.
Altliough sonie yachtsmen in the
Bermuda race in the past hâve miss-
od the islands through laok of ex
périence in navigation, it is béiieved
that Pidgeon would make St. David’s
Head without a miss. Du ring his
long Voyage of 35,000 miles round
the ' world he made some difficile
passages, one of forty-two days in
the Pacific, and he alwrv/s brought
up at the port he desired to make.
Pidgeon circumnavigated the world
without the aid of a chronometer,
using a gold watch instead. This
substitute for the usual instrument-
was placed on some cotton in a eigar
box during the long trip.

{Paris Times Spécial)
MILWAUKEE.—-Seucio Moldez, the
Filipino flyweight, known to the
box in g world as Clever Sencio, lias
died here as the resuit of cérébral
hemorrhage brought about by a ter*
vific beating by Bud Taylor of Terre

pino was grgggy when examined in
his dressing room after thé bout.
Dr. Ernest Miller, the examiner, s aid
that his puise and respiration were
normal and he complimented tlie
fighter on that. fart.
No criminal prosecution is content-
ulated against Taylor or the promo-
fers. “Boxing is legalised in Wis
consin. and the Boxing Commission
pas se il on Seucio’s physical condi
tion b o fore the bout, and found him
perfectly fit,” saya District Attorney
Wengert. “The law and villes were
observed in every way. It was just
one of tbose unfortunate thiugs that
happen .in any sport.”
After a pest-mortem examimitiou,
Dr. W. J. Murphy said that no power
on earth coukl 6 ave the fighter; he
was doomed when he left tbe ring.
Second Time for Taylor.
It is just a little more than two
years silice Referee “Patsy” Haley

“Mauler” Mascart will be called upon
to show his wares in a match with
Harry Corbett, with a Kid Francis v.
Charlev Sauvage s-et-to in the warm-
ing up position.
Mascart i.s a vastly improved
'fighter over the youngster who went
out to the United States last year in
search of famé and wealth, a trip on
which he won expérience which may
serve him better in the long run. A
win over the fast Englishmen would
force a title fight for Mascart, and a
title victory would send him back to
America for a big-money bout, with
the world championship at stake.
The bill on May 11 brings to Paris Breittenstraeter, the big Germain
scrapper, lining him up against a man of his weight and courage in Francis

Managers Jack Dangoise and Phillipe Roth are greatly to be complimented
on bringing him here to satisfy the cu-riosity of Parisian followers of the

No Need to Worry About Future of Baseball-
Shivering thousands turned up their -coat collars at the -Polo Grounds
in New York 011 the opening day this year and stormed through nine in
nings of baseball, scoffing tlie while at tbose who bave been wailing that tbe
national game of the United States was surely dying. The grave-diggers
can turn their shovels, to other uses. If evidence were needed of basebâll’s
hold on the imagination of the people, that crowd gave conclusive testimony.
The glooms must seek some other medium 011 which to pour their woes.
The Brush Stadium seats 54,500, and only the bleachers, d-eep in centre field,
were thinly populated. Those who turned out to see the Brooklyn Robins,
much beaten by the Yankees, check tbe first rush of tlie Giants to a National
iLeague pennant, niimbered close to fifty thousand men, women. and boys.
That tells a dëfinite story.
To Resin Or Not To Resin.
Aller ail tbe talk and ink which bas been spilled over tbe use of resin
by baseball pi tôliers, it appears that
the same pitehers are making use of
tbe legal bag of the friction stuff as
formerly carried in a pocket or 011
their shirt fronts. The use of it
makes 110 différence to a good pitcher,
and it can’t make a poor one much
better, so whât’s tlie diff ? It’s a
'cinch that tbe Paris Baseball Associa-
——- 1 vu.
tion will not need any spécial législation on the subject. This league has dif-
ficulty enough in fiiiding a place to play and a 'bail or two to toss around.
Tbe Cleveland Indians won the
opening geflne ot the baseball season

thers, Catcher Luke, and Shortstop
Joey, cracked out three of their
team's eiglit hits and played like dé

! WITH THE OLD-TIMERS
R. M. Brâdley, who appeared in
Fender’s side in a recent trial cricket
game at the Oval. is a son of Bill
Brâdley, the old Kent and All-Eng-
land bowler. île is still at Ardingly
Gollege, Sussex, and did extremely
well last summer. He will captain
the school eleven this season. He is
a useful. bowler—not so fast as Bind
ley père, perhaps—and can get runs.
He will, no doubt, develop into a more
than useful cricketer if lie can get
expérience in good-çlas-s gam.es.
Mr. F. E. Lacey, the retirihg Se-
cretary of the M. C. C., had tlie re-
markable batting average of 111 for
Hampshire County Cricket Club
in 1882. It is true that he played
only three innings for the county and
that one of those was a “not ont;”
but his aggregate of 223 runs in-
cludec] a splendid 157 against Sus
sex at Hove, and he also took 16
wickets for 13.13 apiece. That
season of ’82 was also the mémorable
one in which Mr. Lacey was a mem-
ber of the Cambridge eleven that
defeated the Australians and Oxford,
his colleagues inciuding the brothers
Studd. Alfred Lyttelton, Lord (then
tlie Hon. M. B.) Iiawke, C. Aubrey
Smith and C. W. Wright.
Court Tennis Was Played by the Romans.
Court tennis, perhaps the oldest of ail existing ball-games, is at once
the most difficult to learn ou account of the intricacy of its laws, and the
most interesting when mastered because of the great variety of its strokes
and the difficulté of solving rapidly the problems which are constantly
presented to the player.
Of the or i gin of the game it is not possible to speak with certainty, but
it may confidently be assumed that it sprang from sonie very simple sport.
It was importée] into England from France, where it is conjectured that it
was introduced by the Romans. The pastime became a favorite one with
persons of rank who built private courts, and by the 17th. Century these
courts had become very numerous. About this period a graduai decadence

DEFIES HOME BOWLERS
Test Cricketers’ First Match of Tour
Is Drawn on Wet
Wicket.
(Paris Times Spécial)
LONDON, Friclay.—Tlie Australian
cricketers played the first match ot
their English tour yesterday on the
pieturescme country-house grouncl be-
longing to Mr. H." M. Martineau at
Holyport. Rain liad preveated a hall
from hein g bowled on the prévit» us.
day, and the game liad to be con-
fined to one day as the Colonial team
leaves îor Leicester this afternoon
to play the County to-morrow.
Although there was little sun. the
wicket had dried sufticieïitly for a
start to be niade soou after eleven,
by which time a crowd of several
thousands had taken advautage ol !
Mr. Martineau’s generouS offer to
throw the ground open to the public.
His luck in the .spin of the coin once
again favored “Horseshoe” Collins,
and he elected to let his side bat
first. Mr. M. Falcon led his Minor
Counties XI on the field to the ac-
compartiment of a round o£ cheers,
and the Englishmen were immediately
followed by the Australian captain
and his deputy, Bardsley, to open the
first tûurists’ innings on English soil.
Bardsley took first knock, and had
the honor of scoving the first run off
Falcon, who shared the bowling with
Meyer. The bail was inclined to jump
considerably on the sticky wicket,
and botte Collins and Bardsley found
Falcon extremely difficuit to play.
Hetlierton relieved .Meyer early, and
the change brought about the down-
fall of the Australian skipper, who
vas neatly caught by Edwards,
Bardsley Stumped.
Macartney followed, and the little
‘'Governor-Generar isoon settleci
dowu. A smart pièce of work by ;
Franklin behind the stumps lost
Bardsley his wicket at 42, for which
he had to play more carefully than !
usnal. Soon afterwards Macartney
got in front of a bail from Hazelton,
and was dismissed for 18. Taylor
i'ell to the same bowler at 4 imme
diately after lunch, which arrived
with the score at 97 for 3.
Falcon was giving the batsmen any
amouut of trouble. Woodfull was the
next. to go by putting a neat catch
to Côlman off the English skipper.
Ryder and Ponsford stuck together
for sonie while, the former indulging
in some frée hitting at times, until
Ponsford was clean bowled by Falcon.
Arthur ïticharson got a ‘‘blob,” and
Oldfield followed suit, bot h wickets
falling to Falcon. Gregory and Grim-
niétt could do very little against tte®
same bowler, whose average sbowed
the.very fine figures of 7.for 42. To
capture seven Test players’ wickets
six apiece was. a splendid perfor
mance on the part of Falcon, and he
received a great ovation on veturning
to the pavilion. as did also Ryder fo*‘
carrying out his bat for the highest
score.
Englishmen Hit Ouf.
Buchanan and Ferens- opened the
Minor Counties innings, but the lat-
tèr was dismissed early off Gregory.
Colman then came in, and started
lashing out, sending Richardson to
the bounuary twice in one over. Old
field brought off a smart catch which
sent Buchanan back, and Ling joined
the old Oxford “Blue” Both players
found Gregory a bit troublesome, but
they hit ont in spirited fashion
against Macartney and Grimmett.
Ryder held a hot return from Ling,
and Crawley and Falcon fiuished out
the innings until stumps were pul’ed.

NEW YORK, Friday.—Herbert L.
Stone, Chairman of the Bermuda
Océan Race Committee, announces
that lie expects to bave the entry
of Iïarry Pidgeon, the lowa navi
gator who recently circumnavigated
the world single-handed in the yawl
Islander, which he constructed him-
self at Los Angeles.
Pidgeon lias tojd Stone that he
exuects to be in /New York waters
at the time of the race and if so
he would be g lad to enter the Is
lande!/ and sai'l lier alone against
the other boats in the fleet. The
Bermuda race, a deep-sea thrash of
660 nautical miles to St. David’s
Head, outside Hamilton, will start olï
New London on Sunday, June 20.
Altliough sonie yachtsmen in the
Bermuda race in the past hâve miss-
od the islands through laok of ex
périence in navigation, it is béiieved
that Pidgeon would make St. David’s
Head without a miss. Du ring his
long Voyage of 35,000 miles round
the ' world he made some difficile
passages, one of forty-two days in
the Pacific, and he alwrv/s brought
up at the port he desired to make.
Pidgeon circumnavigated the world
without the aid of a chronometer,
using a gold watch instead. This
substitute for the usual instrument-
was placed on some cotton in a eigar
box during the long trip.

FRENCH FLYWEIGHT
CHAMPION DEFEATED
{Paris Times Spécial)
LONDON, Friday.—Alf Morrac-
ebini, the French flyweight cham
pion, had Teddy Baldock, tbe undc-
feated London youngster, ail but ont
at tbe conclusion of his fifteen-round
scrap at the Albert Hall last night,
but lie lost tbe decision because of
tbe advantage piled up by tbe local
boy in tbe early rounds of tbe iiglit.
I 11 tbe twelfth round Morracchini
sent bis man to the canvas for a
short count, and then be bad thiugs
bis own way. Tbe public was with
the French fighter at tbe finish, al-
though the îmferee and judges gave
the decision tô Baldock.
In a twenty-roiind welterweight
championship fight on the same pro
gramme, Harry Mason, holder, se-
cured a draw against Len Harvey,
the Manchester colored fighter, ai-
though the only décisive blow of
the hugging match sent Mason down
for a count of niffe in the eighteenth
round. Mason came back strong in
the last round, however, and merii-
ed a drawn decision.
Loôking Through the Sport ose ope
Paris to Hâve Orgy of Prize-Fîghting.
i lie fight tans of the Paris région will get ail of t.heir favorite sport
whicdi they desire and can pay for in a short space of time when a Cirque
de Paris bill be staged on Saturday,
May 8 , and a Vélodrome d’Hiver
programme will be offerad the follow-
ing Tuesday. Both of these -cards
promise real scraps, and both hâve
the international character demanded
by the fans of the capital. On the
bill of fare on May 8 the sensationai
“Mauler” Mascart will be called upon
to show his wares in a match with
Harry Corbett, with a Kid Francis v.
Charlev Sauvage s-et-to in the warm-
ing up position.
Mascart i.s a vastly improved
'fighter over the youngster who went
out to the United States last year in
search of famé and wealth, a trip on
which he won expérience which may
serve him better in the long run. A
win over the fast Englishmen would
force a title fight for Mascart, and a
title victory would send him back to
America for a big-money bout, with
the world championship at stake.
The bill on May 11 brings to Paris Breittenstraeter, the big Germain
scrapper, lining him up against a man of his weight and courage in Francis
Charles. Hans Breittenstraeter is called the '‘Carpentier” of Germany.
Managers Jack Dangoise and Phillipe Roth are greatly to be complimented
on bringing him here to satisfy the cu-riosity of Parisian followers of the
ring.

No Need to Worry About Future of Baseball-
Shivering thousands turned up their -coat collars at the -Polo Grounds
in New York 011 the opening day this year and stormed through nine in
nings of baseball, scoffing tlie while at tbose who bave been wailing that tbe
national game of the United States was surely dying. The grave-diggers
can turn their shovels, to other uses. If evidence were needed of basebâll’s
hold on the imagination of the people, that crowd gave conclusive testimony.
The glooms must seek some other medium 011 which to pour their woes.
The Brush Stadium seats 54,500, and only the bleachers, d-eep in centre field,
were thinly populated. Those who turned out to see the Brooklyn Robins,
much beaten by the Yankees, check tbe first rush of tlie Giants to a National
iLeague pennant, niimbered close to fifty thousand men, women. and boys.
That tells a dëfinite story.
To Resin Or Not To Resin.
Aller ail tbe talk and ink which bas been spilled over tbe use of resin
by baseball pi tôliers, it appears that
the same pitehers are making use of
tbe legal bag of the friction stuff as
formerly carried in a pocket or 011
their shirt fronts. The use of it
makes 110 différence to a good pitcher,
and it can’t make a poor one much
better, so whât’s tlie diff ? It’s a
'cinch that tbe Paris Baseball Associa-
——- 1 vu.
tion will not need any spécial législation on the subject. This league has dif-
ficulty enough in fiiiding a place to play and a 'bail or two to toss around.
Tbe Cleveland Indians won the
opening geflne ot the baseball season
from Detroit when the Sewell Bro
thers, Catcher Luke, and Shortstop
Joey, cracked out three of their
team's eiglit hits and played like dé
mons iu the field.
! WITH THE OLD-TIMERS
R. M. Brâdley, who appeared in
Fender’s side in a recent trial cricket
game at the Oval. is a son of Bill
Brâdley, the old Kent and All-Eng-
land bowler. île is still at Ardingly
Gollege, Sussex, and did extremely
well last summer. He will captain
the school eleven this season. He is
a useful. bowler—not so fast as Bind
ley père, perhaps—and can get runs.
He will, no doubt, develop into a more
than useful cricketer if lie can get
expérience in good-çlas-s gam.es.
Mr. F. E. Lacey, the retirihg Se-
cretary of the M. C. C., had tlie re-
markable batting average of 111 for
Hampshire County Cricket Club
in 1882. It is true that he played
only three innings for the county and
that one of those was a “not ont;”
but his aggregate of 223 runs in-
cludec] a splendid 157 against Sus
sex at Hove, and he also took 16
wickets for 13.13 apiece. That
season of ’82 was also the mémorable
one in which Mr. Lacey was a mem-
ber of the Cambridge eleven that
defeated the Australians and Oxford,
his colleagues inciuding the brothers
Studd. Alfred Lyttelton, Lord (then
tlie Hon. M. B.) Iiawke, C. Aubrey
Smith and C. W. Wright.
Court Tennis Was Played by the Romans.
Court tennis, perhaps the oldest of ail existing ball-games, is at once
the most difficult to learn ou account of the intricacy of its laws, and the
most interesting when mastered because of the great variety of its strokes
and the difficulté of solving rapidly the problems which are constantly
presented to the player.
Of the or i gin of the game it is not possible to speak with certainty, but
it may confidently be assumed that it sprang from sonie very simple sport.
It was importée] into England from France, where it is conjectured that it
was introduced by the Romans. The pastime became a favorite one with
persons of rank who built private courts, and by the 17th. Century these
courts had become very numerous. About this period a graduai decadence
seems to hâve set in which continued for about two bundred years until the
game was little lieard of. A stimulus liowever, was, given in London by
tbe Marylebone Club instituting in 1867 tbe M. C- C. Challenge Prize which
was won in this year and for tbe next thirteen years by .L M. Heathcote.
The English Amateur Championship ivas instituted in 1889 and is being
competed for this Aveek in Manchester.
