Cricket.
The Kandallites and the Nondescripts
tried conclusions for the first tlmo yester
day , and the result showed that the lattoi
were well worthy of their name. Picnics and
vacation time having deprived them of their
best ola > crs , they wore constrained to ru-
emit from the same source that the gentle
man ( about to contract a matrimonial alli
ance ) In the parable did. The bowline on
this occasion ( owing to thu vile condition of
the grounds ) be.it the batting , hence the
small scores. For the winning bide the bat
ting of Mr. M"lr Is especially worthy ol
mention. Ills innings of twelve was the re
sult of careful and correct cricket , although
lie gave a couule of chances that were not
accepted. The tickling on both sides was
abovu the aveiage , and were It not for an un
due proportion of extras , the game would noi
have been so one sided as It was. This fact
does not by anv means dotlrct from the
credit due to J. Upton , whose long stonolng ,
thnuuli unexceptionable , failed to stop the
' 'steals. " Below Is the scorn :

NEW YORK , . Sept , l.-7-tCorrcsponilonco
of the BKE. ] Wlso'Fnthsr ' Hewitt , otherwise -
wise Known ai the mayor , has permitted
the opening of another mtHio-bcor re
sort right In the heart of the city. It is
pretty late In the season to begin a series
of summer night concerts , but bettor late
than never was the motto of an enter
prising musician who assured the mayor
of his honorable intentions , and jumping
into the vast Madison Square garden ho
determined to snatch as many belated
pennies as possible before snow filed. It
is already pretty chilly of an evening in
a big barn IIKO the Madison Square garden -
don , but the managers of the concert en
terprise do everything to persuade people
ple that it is blistering hot. At various
places in the building arc Immense blow
pipes that send In strong blasts ot air
Those pipes are romantically named
after famous watering places , as "Sara
toga Breeze , " "Long Branch Breeze , "
and so on. They are on a level with the
floor but inclined upwards.so that when a
a man passes his hat it is likely to take a
sudden excursion from his head , and the
woman who passes has to clutch con
vulsively at her skirts to prevent morti
fying disclosures. Those land an.d sea
breezes have been passed over lee before
being discharged into the building. Tli
result is a draughty , chilly atmosphere ,
which makes overcoats and wraps a
necessity. But New Yorkers have boon
so sadly at a loss for light entertainment
this season that the place Is splendidly
patronized. It is Intended to cater to
the nice people , and the programmes are
selected with a view to pleasing culti
vated tastes. Furthermore , they have a
placard at the door that denies admission
to ladies who come without escort. That
is supposed to bo a guarantee that only
nice people will bo found at the tables.
And certain it is that if people who are
not nice so there , no one is tlio wiser. I
went to hear
A "WAQNBB NIOIIT" CONCEUT ,
and saw , of course , the usual crowd oi
enthusiasts. There are moro cranky
looking people to bo scon at a Wagner
concert than at almost any other kind ol
a gathering. For instance : A short old
lady with white hair worn with a pro
nounced bang and , a big cell ; she is
dressed in gray without excess ot trim
mings ; on Tier head jauntily perched a
cardinal red hat with a big feather in it ;
she walked with the sprightly stop of a
country school girljto front table and
shook hands with a long-haired old man
there ; ho promptly rose , waving a cigar
gallantly in his hand , and went with not
to the table she hud pre-empted for the
occasion. At it sat her daughter , about
twenty-live OyeaWoldj dressed exactlj
like her mother , in plain gray and a glar
ing red hat. The oflefb was to make the
daughter look like Yin old woman. They
listened solemnly to ttio Wagner music
and chatted incessantly through n
Strauss waltz. Not 'far away was a
pretty young woman , richly dressed sip
ping a claret punoh'with a sensible look
ing young man. I recognized in her s
French actress whom Ilast saw at the
French ball in the winter costumed in
suggestive tights and brief skirts.
The manners of people at places ol
amusement are always interesting if not
instructive. It is impossible not to set
them unless yon kpop your eyes closed
Almost in front of me last night at at
opening performance in a theatre sat s
gorgeously young lady of the Hebron
type. Her escort had left her as soon a ;
she had taken her scat , saying that if lu
should be unable to return shp would b <
able to h'nd her way home without dif
ficulty , but that she should probably ap <
pear again. She smiled assent conli
ucntly , and settled into a study of the
curtain. It was hot and close and smal
boy who made himself conspicuous will
an armful of fans did a thriving business
The young lady looked at them long
ingly , and after several moments of lies
itation beckoned the boy to her. H <
held out a fan which she was about tc
take , but as ho did not see the necessary
dime forthcoming , kept his grip on tin
fan saying , "ten cents , please. " She bit
her lips and did her best to look as if h <
had simply called the boy to get her :
programme , a request which she mad (
plain when the boy failed to undcrstant
her. Ho
DI9UTEA.HED UP THE AISLK ,
and she furtively sought her purse. I :
contained exactly the reamrud dime ,
The atmosphere was hot and oppressive
but what it her escort should not return
How could she pay her faro on the nlo
vnted ? She pinched that dime pretty
hard while the boy was gone , and was
yet undecided when ho came back wit !
the programme. Then the impulse o :
the discomfort overcame her caution
and she bought ttio fan. For two min
utes her audacity and the risk she was
taking make her cheek burn moro that
the heat did. And all through the firsi
act and the intermission she was ner
vous , but she had her fan which mus
proved a great consolation if the vigoi
with which she wielded it signified any
thing. And nt last her escort did return
and the expression of relief that canu
over her face as the fan relapsed into t
steady genteel wave was beautiful t <
look upon.
It would scorn to any one visiting Lone

"Well , it's the same piece. 'Hamlet

The spectacle of a dudishly dressed
gentleman holding with gingerly touch
A lADY'S BUSTLK
and shoos attracted the attention of a
great crowd at Long Branch the other
Jay. It was the customary throng of
bathers lu front of a hotel augmented by
many besides who know that they wcro
to bo repaid by a sight always too funny
for anything of a gentleman handling a
lady's apparel. I don't think there is an
article worn by man that any woman ,
married or single , cannot carry , or fold ,
or pack up with as much dignltv ami
grace as she can the belonging ] of her
self ; but with a man it is dif
ferent. No matter how cool and
self-possessed ho may bo at other times ,
and no matter bow cultivated and charm
ing are his usual manners , give him a
lady's bustle , or oven her hat. to hold , or
to fold , or to ilo anything under the sun
with , nnd Instantly ho becomes a pitiful
object of clumsiness and constraint , with
his lingers all thumbs nnd his wits all
astray. Fuuuy , isn't It , but not to bo do-
tiled.
So it was on this morning with this
man and this bustlo. It was poked out
to him from the uuglazctl aperture In the
top of a bath house door , at the end of a
plump and pink arm , the unclad condi
tion of which was excuse enough for the
lady's non-appearanco in person on the
scene. Ho held the innocent construction
of tape and wire precisely ns he would
have hold a live crab , far from him and
with the tips of his fingers. Ho probably
knew as well as any woman could tell
him that bustles ncvor hurt anybody ,
except their wearers , but ho was
a man , and it was part of a
lady's dress , and that was sulllcient. The
occasion was the settlement of a wager
that was all the talk among a certain
rather unconventional set assembled as
boarders together at a certain cottage
theatrical folks and idlers all proper
enough , but bent on having fun. An
actor among thorn had ended a week of
hot discussion as to which sex wore the
heavier clothus by bolting with another
man in the party that men carry less
weight in garments in hot weather than
woman. It had been decided that a cer
tain young woman of operatic hopes ,
but only concert reall/ations , should sub
mit to having her clothes weighed in the
same scales with those of the actor who
made the wager. No particular time for
the solution of the problem was agreed
upon , but the young smgor assures mo
that , so as not to bo taken off her guard ,
and so as to win a victory for her sex , she
never afterward put on anything that
was not of the lightest weight among all
her belongings. She ran a tremendous
risk of pneumonia but what true woman
would care a tig for a little thing like
that , under such circumstances. The
actor may have donn the sumo thing , but
it was thought that ho took no advantage
of his opportunities. On this morning it
had boon agreed upon that the test should
bo made at the bath. Honoc the man and
tbo bustle.
The wise young concert singer first
handed out a , white lawn .dress a more
web ,
AM. I.ACB AND OPEN WO UK ,
where such things are both fashionable
and possible. It and its bolt of ribbon
weighed precisely one pound on the
spring snales borrowed of the cook at
the boarding house. Then came
three white skirts which woieh
two pounds , and the bustle
and shoes , which weighed ono
pound three ounces. Ihoso were fol
lowed by stockings , cufla. collar and
handkerchief , weight all together four
ounces , and a hat that welched five
ounces. The corsets , stigmati/.cd in
books and lectures for half a century as
barbarous and brutal , weighed what do
you suppose ? Three ounces and uo
moro.
Next came a little wisp of white dry
goods caught tightly around the middle
with a piuco of twine.
"What is this ? " the judge and weigher
inquired.
"Never mind , " came the answer , "it
isn't this , it's those , " a pause , "what 1
moan to say is that there is
more than one piece there and you are
not to untie the string , on your honor. "
This was agreed to , the lady lookers-on
saying that they would sec the promise
kept , and the judge wrote down , "those
eight ounces. "
There was as much figuring and argu
ing over the conversion of pounds into
ounces and ounces back again to pounds
as ever followed the attempts of Miss
( Jorson's class to produce a dish of trrro1
pin sauce , hut at last this result was an
nounced : "Total weight of Miss Blank's
things" ( note the mannish way of speak
ing of what ho deemed so mysterious
that even the good old word "clothes'
never occurred to him ) "fifty-sever
ounces or three pounds ami nine
ounces. "
Then came the wo ghing ot the actor's
apparel , and the first thing hooked or
the scales , by the way , outweighed the
lady's clothes tremendously , so much sr
that if it had not been for a woman ol
sense standing by , who know that the
whole Cworld would like to know the
truth about this much-vexed question ,
nothing moro would have boon put on
the scales , and the bet would have been
settled. This first thing was the actor't
outer suit of trousers , vest ana unlined
sack coat. These weighed tivo pounds
precisely.
THINK OF IT.
Thirteen ounces moro in a man's outer
most garments than in all the lady wore ,
The weights bet down to the actor's
credit ( and discomlituro ) wore as follows
pounds , ounces
Hat 4
Suit and suspenders 5 3
Shirt and undershirt 1 H
Shoes and socks : . . 1 8
Collar , cuffs ( with links )
and tie 4
Total 133
Total for lady 57
Kxcess of weight in man's
clothes 81
Whataso/mon there is in those fig'
ures ! What an opportunity for the men
of all eras and all occupations to take
back all that they pvor wrote concerning
woman's inhumanity to horsulf in drag'
ging around great weight of clothing and
in loading herst'lf with pounds of super'
Hultles. To bo'sure , the lady siid she
wore the lightest garments she had , but
she might have put on her heaviest ap-
parol.and even then she would have won
tlio wager easily. As for the actor , he
declared ho had never dressed moru
lightly , though not in preparation for the
test , but on account of the weather.
