Boston, November 13tb, 187-1. 

 Editor "FortEST and Stream:— 



Walking along the beach at South Boston it is easy to see thai the 

 yachting season is about over. Most of the yachts have gone into Win- 

 ter quarters, and the few still in the water are but little used. Among 

 the yachts on the beach are the sloop Iris, which wa? run into and badiy 

 damaged by the Hingham steamer last Summer. No attempt has been 

 made to repair her, which seems too bad, as she is a fine boat. It is in- 

 teresting to know if the steamboat company ever paid for the damage 

 done. 



There have been a few new yachts added to rhe squadron off the Point 

 this year. Among these are the Mariquita, Mabel and Olive. These boats 

 are all clippers, 'fhe last named was expected to beat everything in her 

 class, being built with great care and skill on a pecnliar model, being 

 somewhat flat -sided like the Ripple, which created such a stirayearor 

 two ago. Being launched late in the season, she has not yet ha.' aa op- 



Catcher, Mullen, of Eastern; pitcher, Bradley, of Easton; 

 first base, Dehlman, of Atlantic ; second base, Battin, of 

 Athletic; third base, Fleet of Atlantic; short-stop, Pearce, 

 of Atlantic; left field, Cuthbert of Chicago; centre field, 

 Pike, of Hartford; right field, Waitt, of Easton. All of the 

 above have signed except Pearce and Fleet, Mullen having 

 been paid $100 bonus. 



— The Easton club closed a very successful season last 

 week. Their record for 1874. shows that they won 29 and 

 lost 3 games with amateur nines, their most noteworthy 

 victories being the defeat, of the Collins, of Philadelphia, 

 14 to ; the Flvaways, of New York, 4 to ; the Chelseas, 

 of Brooklyn, 18 lo 3, and the Shib.es, of Philadelphia, 17 to 

 9; these three last named being the amateur champions of 

 their respective cities. The Bastons also played eight 

 games with professional clubs, defeating the. Phi'ladclphias 

 11 to 3, the Alhlelius 7 to S, and Ihe' Atlantics 10 to 8. 

 Three of their defeats with professional clubs were verv 

 close affairs; the Atlantics winning by one run, the Pliila- 

 nelpliias by three runs, and the Mutuals by four runs only 

 Their two Worst defeats were by the Mutuals, 19 to 3 and 

 the Atlantics 30 to 11. Haug and Wait took part in all of 

 the games played, the former having the best average of 

 base hits, and' the latter of runs. Bradley put out. 45 men, 

 and assisted no less than 120 limes in his position of pitcher, 

 Miller retiring 161 men, and assisting 03 times, their field- 

 ing averages being remarkable. J. Smith, the captain, has 

 hod full management of the club for the past three seasons, 

 and that he did his work thoroughly, the club's record 

 above given proves. Mr. George M. Reeder, of the Easton 

 Daily Exprm, the President, and Mr. William llulick, the 

 Vice President of the Eastons, have contributed largely to 

 its support, and its great, success is mainly due to their ex- 

 ertions in conjunction with Captain Jack Smillt, Hie ener- 

 getic manager. 



— The new professional club of Philadelphia is to be 

 called the Centennial. It was formally organized last Sat- 

 urday week, by the selection of the following well-known 

 gentlemen as officers; President, Charles " E. Rollins; 

 Treasurer, W. D. Allen; Secretary, J. Bard Worrel. Di- 

 rectors, A. E. Story, Win. F. McCully, A. E. Smyth and 

 J. B. Cook. The capital stock of the corporation was fixed 

 tit iflO.000, divided into two hundred shares, at $50 each. 

 The following players have signed for the season of 1875 : 

 Craver, Bechtol, Abadie, McGinley, Sommcrville, Tren- 

 with, AVarner, Mason and Huston, with Quintan and Tim- 

 tnons as substitutes. The club is now negotiating for 

 suitable grounds, and have perfected arrangements whereby 

 they wili start in February next on an extended lour, play- 

 ing in all of the principal cities of the South, returning 

 home in time for the opening of the season of 1875. 



—The following is the record of the Acushnet base ball 

 club of New Bedford, Mass., for 1874.:—

 good time in the city on that day. 



—The highest score made by a winning nine last season 

 was by the'Mutuals. when they defeated the Chicagoes 38 

 to 1. The only tie game of the season was the Atlantic and 

 Boston match of October 7, 4 to 3. In one game twelve 

 .innings were played, and in eight Others, ten innings.

— The Athletic club it appears has barely cleared expenses 

 during 1874, their receipts— $35,930— only exceeding ex- 

 penses by $87-5. They lost by their European trip, which 

 cost $3,396, the receipts in England not exceeding $1,790.

Tite French Game Touunament.— In the annals of 

 billiards in the metropolis there has been no exhibition or 

 entertainment ever given by professional experts that will 

 compare with the tournament which last, week was the 

 billiard sensation in the city at Tammany Hall. In every 

 respect was it a success, both as regards the skill displayed 

 and the number and character of the audiences which 

 tilled the hall nightly. But especially were the arrange- 

 ments noteworthy for the entire absence of the objection- 

 able features which have only too frequently marred the 

 success of like entertainments. For this wc Ihink we are 

 indebted to the large attendance of the fair sex, whose 

 presence, of course, debarred not only the annoyance of 

 smoking, but also of that greater evil, open gambling. Bet- 

 ting on the result, of the contests it was impossible to avoid, 

 but what was done in this line had to be done outside the 

 hall, or sub ivtt, and hence the order and decorum which 

 prevailed throughout Ihe tournament. As regards the play- 

 ing, there has 'never before in this country been seen so 

 masterly a display of skill as was exhibited in Tammany
