(Special to the Eagle.) Pittsburg. May 22 Brooklyn played tings around the much vaunted Pittsburgs yesterday, and sent them down a peg into the second division. Horseshoe Dunn was having his usual merrv time in the box and had the Pirates blanked in the second when he hurt lis arm, seriously it is believed, and was forced to retire. McGinnity relieved him with out any warming up and was wild in the third, four bases on balls and three runs were scored although the home team was unable to make a base hit, an error by the pitcher being responsible for two of them. After that.

Jennings smgieu and took second on a passed ball. Kelley walked and Dahlen supplied a single en which Jennings scored.

Dahlen reached eecond on Ritchey's muff of a throw and Kelley came home. In Pittsburg's half, Beaumont. Clarke and Williams went to first on balls in rapid succession, filling the corners.

Ritchey hit to Jennings, but McGinnity, who covered the base, muffed the throw, both Clarke and Cooley scoring on the error, the only one of the game for Brooklyn. Brooklyn forged ahead in the fifth when two runs were tallied on Keeler's triple, Jennings' double. Clarke's fumble and Dah len's long fly.

SEVERAL RECORDS BROKEN. Tafel of Erasmus and Roberts of Poly Score Eirsts Ripley "Wins College Bicycle Race.

The New York and Long Island Inter scholastic Athletic Association held its second annual meet at Berkeley Oval yesterday afternoon. Owing to the rain and the postponed ance was fact that the meet was from Saturday, the attend not up to expectations. Those who were there were mostly Brooklynitcs. Despite a half dozen heavy showers, good times were recorded and no spills occurred in the cycling events. The Long Island boys carried off four first places out of sixteen events, a showing none too good, but, nevertheless, no worse than was expected of them.

At the conclusion 62 points were credited to the athletes on this side of the river, while the New Yorkers claimed 112. The Brooklyn High School athletes were unable to compete on account of recitations. The pole vault, broad jump, 220 yard hurdle and hammer throw went to Hunt of St. Paul's, Tafel of Erasmus, Roberts of Poly and Hunt of St. Paul's, respectively.

The latter would, no doubt, have also annexed the shot put, but he was handicapped by being unable to get a lead shot, which he is accustomed to using. A surprise was sprung in the broad jumps, which, very unexpectedly, went to Tafel. who broke the Long Island record of 20 feet inches by an inch and tied the intercity record. In the 440 yard run. in which C.

E. White of Pratt finished a splendid second, the Long Island record was also eclipsed. White was held back by Keeler of De La Salle, who put out his arm in front of the Pratt boy to prevent hiru from crossing the tape ahead of him. The officials promptly allowed the protest entered and awarded White second place. Le roy See, the Brooklyn boy who rides under the colors of Berkeley School, won the one third of a mile and the mile wheeling races.

despite the fact that he is suffering badly from the mumps Tne mile had to be ridden off three times, as the boys steadfastly re fused to eet pace and keep within the time limit. Bert Ripley, captain of the Princeton bicycle squad, had an easy time in the two wheeling events which were run off between the Princeton and Columbia teams. The 120 yard hurdles wont to Bell of Cutler, but the hurdles measured 3 feet 6 inches. whereas, tne arooKiyn Doys are use a to fet hurdles. Roberts of Poly finished a good second in this event.

He gives promise of making a splendid performer at the hurdles. 1 aougn snort, ne taites tue jumps oeauuiun rarely stumbling, and his finishing sprint al ways develops a pretty spurt. T. L.

BEDFORD AV AND PACIFIC ST. FIREARM AT ft SHORT PRICE. The Rayon d'Or Gelding Races Home Eight Lengths in Front of Lady Lindsey. STANDING A GOOD 3 YEAR OLD. Defeats Brisk and Knight of the Garter and Becomes a Belmont Possibility.

Sunshine and rain in alternate doses marked the afternoon at Morris Park yesterday began the last week's racing of the Westchester Racing Association's spring meeting, and, notwithstanding the undesirable weather, tho crowd was of a goodly size. The) track was slow, but not muddy except in spots. Small fields were the rule in all except the dash for 2 year olds. As four favorites and two second choices won, the public had much the best of the argument with the pcncilers. the latter losing heavily on the.

day. The card was made up entirely of overnight events and the fields were made up of selling platers with a few aspirants for honors in tho handicap class. 1 lcnry Spencer gave a clever exhibition of good jockeyship in the seven furlong race for 3 year olds. Spencer was astride Unmasked, while opposed to him was Magnificent' with Jenkins in the saddle, and Asquith, with Nash Turner acting as pilot. Magnificent led for six furlongs, when Spencer brought Unmasked up and ranging alongside of Magnificent beat him out to the wire after a brief struggle.

Magnificent's defeat was caused by his early efforts and by bpencer timing his run to a nicety. The withdrawal of Toluca and Heliobas from' the opening event reduced the field to arm and Lady Lindsey. Considered a sure winner, barring accidents, Firearm was neia at such a short price that little betting was done on the race, although a little money was wagered on Lady Lindsey by those patrons of the betting ring who like to "take a chance." Firearm won, eased up, by eight lengths. If Charlev Patterson had nut up a better lad than Lyne on Quiz II, he would have captured first money in the second race. As it was.

Quiz, after showing prominently for the first three furlongs, fell back Into the buncn, only to come with renewed speed a short distance from the wire. Mitchell, on Tonicum, won by a length and a half from Quiz, which beat Goddess of Night a icngtn. ine latter aiso received a weak ride. Scurry was favorite. but he failed to run up to expectations, al though he closed strong and was rapidly over hauling the leaders.

Although ridden in abominable fashion by Master J. Slack, Dick Roche chestnut colt Standing was so much the bost of those op posed to him in the final event that he won by a couple of lengths. He was worked out a mile and three furlongs, presumamy lor Thursday's big event, the Belmont. In this event he will have to carry izt pounas, si pounds more man ne nau up yesiuroay. orin was second to stanuing anu euiignt oi tao Garter third.

Favonius was many pounds the superior horse in the maiden race for three year oiaa and upward, and he won without any trouble by two lengths. The unamDeriain, led for half a mile, was second and Scales third. Lonny Clayton, the well known jockey, is going to England to ride after the Brooklyn Jockey Club meeting.

such a splendid stand against Janowski in the international chess tournament yesterday afternoon, tho Brooklyn player weakened perceptibly during the evening session, made a slip in the ending, and finally lost tho game that had been counted on a3 at least a certnin draw. Janowski, who conducted the end game faultlessly, thereby made his score three straight. The Kentuck ian, Show alter, on the other hand, fully realized expectations and defeated his Parisian opponent, Dldler, in finished style. World's Champion Laslcer had none too promising a position, so far as forcing a win was concerned, but he would not be denied. He, too, like Janowslii, excelled In tho ending, which has always been considered his forte, and Mioses was obliged to succumb after a gallant struggle.

Both Burn and Maroczy were able to tally victories at the expense of Kosea and Sterling, respectively. These two winners, with Lasker and Janowski, all have three games apiece to their credit. Schloch ter, the youthful Viennese, succumbed, by means of an unexpected coup, In catching the veteran Tschlgorln napping and won his first game. Tito Russian has lost both the games plaved by him, hia previous defeat having been administered by Plllsbury, Marco cleverly outplayed Brody, his countryman, with Mortimer neutralized tho advantage gained over him by Mason, drawing the game. Marco and Mioses, with 2 out ot 3, and Plllsbury nnd Shownlter, the two Americans, each with IV, points.

out of 2, follow the four leaders in tho race. Ot tho other competitors Marshall, Schlechler and Rosen have alono scored a game so far.

Terry McGo. ern. the champion featherweight of the world, and Ellwood McClos key of this city last night put up six of the liveliest kind of rounds ever seen here.

McGovern had the better of it. and was the aggressor throughout, administering severe punishment to the local man, who, however, proved himself a game fighter. McGovern applied himself to winning from MeCloskey his distinction of never having been knocked out in any of his many battles, but the local man, despite the severe drubbing, stayed the limited number of rounda Only once throughout the fight in the third round did the champion score a knockdown. Dan Dougherty and Steve Flanagan put up six very tame rounds, in which they quit with honors even. Akron, 0..

Brooklyn, last night Joe Handler of Newark, N. defeated Jack Downey of Brooklyn in a twenty round contest at 135 pounds. Handler, who was easily five pounds overweight, forced the fighting from the start, and at the end of the twentieth round the refereo declared him the winner. In the preliminaries Frank Collier of Brooklyn defeated Steve Peker of Newark. Buffalo, N.

May 22 Frank Erne, chief second for Jim Fitzpatrick of Olean, N. threw up the sponge in the eleventh round of what was to have been a twenty round bout between Fitzpatrick and Jim Jeffords of California in the Olympic Athletic Club last night. Both Fitzpatrick's eyes were cut badly in the first round, and he fought the succeeding ten rounds through a mask of blood. Handicapped though he was, Fitzpatrick deni aged Jeffords considerably. There were three bouts decided at the Hercules Athletic Club last night.

The main bout v2s between Johnny Reischman of Bush wick and Jack Collier, the Rockaway Beach life saver. Reischman used a left jab on Collier's face for twenty rounds and received the decision. In the first preliminary were Hugh McPad den and Johnny Hines. McPadden put Hines out in the fifth round with a left to the stomach. The police stopped the bout between Jack Derricks and Billy La Rose in the first round and Referee Joe Ward gave the fight to Derricks.

HARVARD OUTPLAYS PENNSY. Crimson Ball Players Win by a Score of 9 to 5 Rain at New Haven. (Special to the Eagle.) Philadelphia, May 22 Harvard beat Penn sylvania in base ball yesterday afternoon, 9 to because Pennsylvania played stupid ball at critical moments. Poor base running in the first inning lost two runs and Shape's mis judgment of an easy pop fly in the eighth, with the bases full, let in three runs. Harvard's hits came when the' were needed.

Twice Pennsylvania had the bases full, but the necessary hit never came. Layton was erratic and lacked good control: Stillman was taken out after being touched up in the i seventh, and Kernan, who replaced him, was I invincible. Pcnnsvlvania lost her nerve with Harvard men on the bases, while the 1 Crimson generalship and all around work was superior. The score Pennsylvania. i Harvard.

R. Murray, Massachusetts Institute of Technology won, with B. h.

Weels, Williams, a close second, and H. E. Brown, Brown, third. Sixteen men competed in the event, necessitating two trial heats and a final. In the first heat three riders collided and were spilled.

No serious damage was done. Murray lowered the former New England intercollegiate record of a minutes 17 3 5 seconds to 4 minutes 30 4 5 seconds, with James F. Moran. the amateur champion, acting as pacemaker. After the races Murray started behind the motor pace to further lower the record.

Tne Tech man pedalled like a whirlwind until well into the home stretch. when a chain on the motor broke. Murray collided and was tossed hard, but jumped up. remounted and sprinted across the tape in 4 minutes 17 2 5 seconds, a phenomenal per formance. The three points which Weels won for Williams clinches the championship for the purple and white, while Murrays' five points advance Tech from sixth to fifth place.

Twelve stalwart Indians, led by a chief in all the glory of gaudy, waving feathers are rived at the Grand Central Station yesterday and on emerging into Forty second street, attracted considerable attention. They turned cut to be the champion Indian lacrosse team of Canada, who passed through here on their way to Cambridge, where they play Harvard on Thursday.

BROWN'S LONG TASK IS DONE Brooklyn Cyclist Finished His 2,000 Mile Ride Fresh and Strong, but His Pacemakers Collapsed.

A HUNDRED MILE RELAY RACE. Kings Countys Challenged to Such a Contest by the Century Road Club. Will Brown's record of 2,000 miles on the roads in 9 days, 9 hours, minutes, which came to an end last night at Valley Stream, is in many ways the most remarkable long distance athletic performance in history. The feat in itself is made remarkable when it is told that the pacemakers, with plenty of sleep and plenty of rest, dropped by the wayside one by one, while Brown, the performer of the ride, continued to pedal along and at the conclusion stood among his blear eyed and tired associates looking as bright and chipper as the hour he mounted for the beginning of the ride. At its conclusion, at 9 o'clock last night, Brown dismounted unassisted and walked to his quarters, and at the conclusion of each twenty five miles of the journey he had done the same thing, frequently chatting with his friends and nearly always stopping for a bite to eat.

Until the end his appetite, pulse, weight, respiration, sight, and, in fact, every physical condition and faculty remained normal, and this in spite of the fact that he had been continuously riding for three days longer, or half as long again, as a six day race. During the duration of his ride, nearly every fact concerning the rider has been given to the public; in condensed form it is known that Brown is 30 years of age and stands 3 feet 10 inches in height, weighs 153 pounds and looks so slender that a good wind would blow him in two. The term "bicycle calves" becomes a misnomer when applied to Brown's legs, for they are truly pipe stems and give absolutely no indication of the power that has driven his SO or 00 geared wheel, as the case happened to be, for such a long journey. Most of the time Brown rode the U6 gear, changing frequently to the lower one to limber up. Brown was born in Kalamazoo, and his father and four brothers died of consumption.

Two years ago Brown had hemorrhages and the physicians gave him a year to live, declaring that he would follow his relatives. Then Brown contracted the cycling habit as a last resort, gave up his position and to the roads of Long Island where he has spent most of his time ever since. The remarkable part about the rider has been his ability to do with so little sleep and yet shyv physically absolutely no ill effects. Facially Brown was just as hearty looking the minute he stepped to the ground at the conclusion of the ride as he was the moment he began it and his eyes were just as clear and bright. Mentally, the rider was a bit sluggish, although he was always happy and contented and at times even jovial.

Ho read the newspaper accounts of his feat at almost every twenty five mile stop. During the journey Brown was off his wheel sixty nine hours and one minute and of this time he slept twenty two hours and fifteen minutes, spending most of the rest of the time in eatins, reading the papers and being photographed. Brown Is engaged to be married to a young woman of this borough. Financially. Brown will not profit largely by his ride, for it was undertaken with no agreement for remuneration and he will get only a pittance.

He did not pad the handle bars of his machine, used an ordinary saddle, no back or stomach supports of any kind and took no drugs or medicines during the journey or at stops. He subsisted principally upon a vegetable diet, although he devoured a chicken at one meal during the ride. Brown was paced bv riders from the other sido of the river for the most part and the stories of women pacemakers were all yarns pure and simple. Several women hung around the place during the most of the ride, but thev had all they could do to hold the pace for twenty five miles at a stretch and save one woman, who rode with her husband on a tandem, they did actually no pacing. The ride was carefully checked by the Century Road Club of America and will stand as a record.

The longest previous road performance of the kind was 1,500 miles by Lehritter all of whose records were broken. After leaving his wheel at 9:06 o'clock last night Brown had to undergo a running fire of questions and then toddled off to bed for a three hour sleep. He was "then awakened and given a walk to prevent him from stiffening up. Another nap of a few hours and this was repeated and then Brown was allowed to take a good sound sleep. He.

will stay at Valley Stream for a few days, so he says. The centuries were made as follows: II. H. M. First Third Fourth Fifth Sixth Seventh ElKhth N'inth Tenth 5 31 Eleventh 12 37!

For the amateurs a one third mile novice, one mile open and half mile handicap were dnci.ici imon and for the money chasers (professionals) a one half mile dash and two mile handicap. In addition to these events two special features have been selected: a three cornered amateur motor paced scratch race of ten miles and an invitation amateur inter club team pursuit race. While It has not been definitely decided who will he the contestant In the motor paced race It is probable that Bedell of the Harlem Wheelmen, the present champion at this stylo of racing.

The Harlem, Greenwich, Riverside and tho Kings County Wheelmen will probably enter teams for the pursuit race and those who remember Warenberger's great ride In this style of race at the Kings County meet of last year will, undoubtedly, look forward to It. with great interest. The Century Rond Club of America has challenged the Kings County Wheelmen to a one hundred mile relay race and the challenge has been accepted promptly. Details are now being arranged and It Is probable that the race will como off within the next two or lui'oe weeks.

Each club Ik to enter five men, each man to rldo a relay of twonly miles. A course on tho Merrick Itoad will, game starting at 3. Brooklyn and New York High Schools will also crossi Dais tomorrow, meetine at Adelohi Field, while a splendid contest should be seen at Washington Park when the Poly and Erasmus Hall teams play their annual game of the inter scholastic schedule. The athletic teams of the Brooklyn schools will now break training as no more meets are scheduled, with the exception of one for St. Paul's School on Saturday afternoon at Potts town.

The Garden City boys have trained very faithfully for this meet, but they are not all hopeful of scoring the most points at the annual triangular meet. Hill and Law rcnceville schools are the other two competitors and the former is conceded to have the strongest chance of taking this year's trophy. The one man whom the St. Paul's boys look to uphold the honor of the institution is Starr at the pole vault. According to good authority, both of the other schools have it figured out that Hill School will score about 12 Lawrenceville 10 and St.

Taul's 20 points on Saturday. Two years ago the Garden City athletes won the meet and last year Lawrenceville came out ahead, so it is thought to be only right that Hill School should prove a winner this spring. Dr. Hare, who has charge of athletics at St. Paul's, said the other day that it was an off year for his school this year as far as track athletics are concerned.

He expects, however, to see some good performances next vear by those who will sport the Maroon and White, as some of the junior athletes are verv promising. The team will leave for Pottstown either Friday evening or on the 6 o'clock Saturday morning train. PLANS FOR BIG PARADE. Pleasure Drivers Discuss Ways and Means to Celebrate the Speedway Opening. A special meeting of the Pleasure Drivers' Association was held last night at Gilman's Kali, Bedford avenue.

The turn out of members was unusually large, every seat in the hall heinsr occuoied. The meeting was called to order by President William M. Clark, and after some preliminary business, the question of the completion of the speedway was brought up, as well as the probability of a parade. The president stated that he had talked with Commissioner Brower, who had said that he would drive down the completed speedway on July 4, or "would eat his hat." W. J.

Zatman, assistant engineer of the Park Department, who was also present, said that the department had purchased the material, but was finding some difficulty with the drainage question and that, in his opinion the road would not be completed until about August 1. The system of drainage will be to lay nineteen inch "Pipes on each side of the roadway, connecting them at intervals with twelve inch pipes. All of the water as far down as Brown's old place will bo carried off by these pipes and drained into the Park Department's gravel pit. From.this point to the Kings' Highway the water will be carried into half a dozen unusually large cesspools, located at various points along the "read. The svstera, it is thought, will entirely do away with the flood of water vhich gathers along this portion of the road upon every heavy shower.

Some disappointment was manifested over the engineer's declaration that it would be MiBust 1 before the work was completed, but i. v. hoo im the members cre compelled to be content' The aSS0Ci" then deck ed to hold a parade on similar lt'o "hat held in New York some weeks since but on somewhat broader lines, and the nanagement of the affair was left entirely in the hands of the executive committee, it io also uecuitfu lu i. xt. Ploiiciirf, similar to nuiui i 1 Drivers published for their parade, the money he used to i ,1 oii the entertainment of the fi ao club's guests was then brought up for dis Ctlssion It was decided not to hold it at anyof the road houses, as this might breed dissatisfaction.

The Shelter House in the Park was suggested, but this was considered too far from the Speedway. The Parkway Driving Club was also suggested. Daniel Bhurey offered the use of his property at the corner of the Kings highway and the Boulevard, where the parade will end, and suggested that a tent lie erected there for the re ception. This scheme will probably bo adopted. Mr.

Clark said that so far as the matter had been settled, the parade would start somewhere near the main entrance to the park, proceed through the park and down the Boulevard to the Kings highway. The details are not yet settled. It is also the intention of the committee to arrange for a cycling contingent, which shall accompany the parade, using the cycle path. An equestrian division will also be formed, which will go down the equestrians' path on the left hand side of the rond. After thoroughly discussing the project it was decided to leave the whole matter In the hands of the executive committee.

The auditing committee reported that every hill against the association was paid, leaving a balance of $340 in the treasury. HUNTINGTON GUNNERS BUSY. Many Events Are Arranged For and Officers Elected. Huntington. L.

Day is in Pittsburg. He says that he has had no occasion to report anything against umpires or players and is sure the days of rowdyism are over. He is opposed to the double umpire system. The acquisition of Lave Cross seems to have given the members of the Brooklyn team renewed confidence in their ability to land the pennant and while many of the players will make a claim that the Grooms have the fiag cinched, not one but will admit that their prospects are enhncod by the addition of the warp legged third baseman. "Cross was just the man we to round out the team nicely, is Jennings opinion.

"We have had other good men in the position, but none of them had the experience that Cross has had in playing tne bag. and It Is in that resoect. and with the ability as a hatter, that he will strengthen the team. Cross is entirely sat Jsfied with his berth, and so harmony and godd feeling on the Brooklyn team is not disturbed. And speaking of Jennings, no man In recent years has carried the brains, aler ness and general ability around the initial bag that the red haired gentleman is displaying.
