There was but a small crowd at Capitol park on Saturday to witness the game between the various members of the Washington club. The aggregation known as the “Washingtons” won 's team by the score of 10 to lin seven innings. Winkleman pitched for the winners. his work being very effective, while Haddock, Keefe, and Ferson, who twirled for Sullivan's nine, had but little luck. Keefe, however, won considerable praise for his won- derful speed. Myers was the spirit of the Washington's, doing great work at the bat and on second base, Sullivan, at short, did fairly | well, escaping with only asingle error out of | one chance at the ball. The teams left for Baltimore this afternoon. After playing there to-day and to-morrow they will return Tuesday evening. They will be ac- companied by Messrs, Burket and Sullivan, In relation to the Ward deal the New York World of Sunday says: Mr. Day, when ques- tioned in regard to the matter, said: “Of course I would like to have Ward play with the New York club, but I do not see very well how such a thing is possible. He came to me last fall and said that he would like to go to Boston or Washington, and wanted to know if I could not arrange the matter. I told him I would try. Ihave done so, and I do not see how any- thing more canbe said or done. If Ward does not go to Washington it will be a bitter blow to that club. Allthe people are looking for Ward, and I do not think he should be discouraged if hisclub does not get to the front during the first year or two. Mr. Hewett is willing to put up money to carry out Ward's idease and I think that in a year or two the club will be equal to the majority of the league clubs.” 2 the nes John Hoover’s Funeral. ATTENDED BY MANY OLD CITIZENS AND BY THE ORPHANS HE HAD BEFRIENDED. The funeral of the late John Hoover, for many years one of the oldest citizens of the District, took place this morning from St. Aloysius church, and was attended by one of the largest assemblages ever seen in Washing- ton on usimilar occasion. There were repre- sentatives present from nearly all of the old District families. Many friends of the family called at the reside! New Jersey avenue, between M and N streets yesterday to view the remains, which w in a casket covered with black cloth, with silver trimmings and a silver | eva with the inscription ‘John Hoover, born February 22, 1798, died March 28, 1889." A number of floral tributes were sent to the house, among them some from the orphans of St. Joseph’s and St. Vincent's. This morning, vrior to the remains being taken to the church, Rev. Father O'Connell, of St. Aloysius, and Rev. Father Walter, of St. Matthews, ‘con- ducted brief services in the presence of the fam- ily and relatives of the deceased and a number of his intimate friends and acquaintances besides members of various orders of the Catholic church. At the conclusionof these services the remains were borne to the hearse through the lines formed by the male and female orphans, and these accompanied the remains to the church. The pall-bearers were Messrs. Lewis J. Davis, Morris Murphy, F, W. Jones, Wm. Bryan, Thos. Young, Rudolph Eichorn, and J. R. Kelly. On the arrival at the church Rev. Father O'Connell celebrated requiem mass, and Rev. John Murphy. of Georgetown college, delivered the memorial sermon. At the conclusion of the services the remains were taken to Mt. Olivet cemetery and interred. Emancipation ‘Notes. Rev. W. B.

Local Clubs Preparing for an Active|A Respite for Colbert and Briggs Summer. There has been a good deal of number of the courts, which are located on vacant lots throughout the city, have been pre- pared for the summer campaign, and in some instances playing has already been begun. ‘There is more or less change in the location of the courts this year, owing to the fact that the lots where they were located last year are needed for building purposes. However, it is still comparatively easy to secure ground suf- ficent for one court at least, and it is probable that there will be fully as many clubs in opera- tion this year as last, and probably a number of new clubs will be organized. The dealers, who handle tennis 5 find it necessary to in- crease their orders each year to meet the de- mand for rackets. nets and balla, THE BACHELOR CLUB, which has among its members several of the well-known players, will not be able to use their court on G street, as the lot is to be used for building. They are, however, going to secure another site in the same location. Mr. Metcalf, who is one of the members, intends soon to start on a trip for Europe and expects to be gone all summer. Mr. John Davidson, who plays with him in doubles, will this season have Mr. Woodward for a partner. Mr. Beach. who was one of the players at the Highland tournament last fall, and made many friends in this city, expects to make his home here. He has joined the Bachelors’ club and will probably play in doubles with Mr. McCawley at the Florida tournament. THE RACKBT CLUB has secure grounds on L street between 21st and 22d streets, and the courts are being pre- pared for use, Every pleasant day during the past week the courts on Connecticut avenue, near Dupont cir- cle, have been in use and some fine games have been played. Mr. Edwardes. Mr. Berry, Mr. McCawley, Mr. Stevens and others have taken advantage of the opportunity for outdoor play, which is not often presented so early in the sea- son. THE TAVIAGUE CLUB has reorganized with twenty-two members, and extensive improvements are now being made on their courts on R, near 1th street. The officers recently elected are as follows: Presi- dent. H. L. Hodgkins; vice-president, Miss Boyle, secretary, J. P. Wooten: captain, Horace A. Dodge; lieutenant, Geo. C. French. The members of ‘the club occupying the courts on Rhode Island avenue, near 15th street, have begun playing. ‘The Capital club will next week put its four courts at the corner of 15th and S streets in complete readiness for an active season. THE PROPOSED GENERAL CLUB. Negotiations were in progress during the past week to secure the old Athletic grounds, at 9th and § streets, for the use of a Viet tennis club. It was the intention to call a meeting of the tennis players for the purpose of forming a club but upon inquiry it was learned that the rent askel for the use of the ground placed that location beyond the reach of a club of or- dinary resources. Mr. John Davidson was very much interested in this project and, in connec- tion with Warder Voorhees, made the inquiries about the grounds with the results as stated. They, however, intend to make a further search for a convenient location, and in the event that they succeed an effort will be made to or- ganize & general tennis club. oS a A New Dodge. HOW ENFORCEMENT OF A SENTENCE TO THE WORKHOUSE CAN BE AVOIDED. Saturday, in the Police Court, Prosecut- ing-Attorney Shillington called Judge Miller’s attentign to a charge of vagrancy against Chas, Stewart, which had been pending on appeal, He stated that the defendant was convicted sixty-six days ago and was sentenced to sixty days in the workhouse. He took an appeal ana was sent to jait while the appeal was pend- ing. Judge Miller remarked that this was a new dodge on the part of persons sentenced to the workhouse. They take an appeal because they prefer to go to jail instead of the work- house, so that they will not have to work. The judge thought that this trouble might be avoided if the prisoners could obtain a speed trialin the court. Judge Montgomery. he said, intended to have a session once a month for the trial of District cases, but it has now been several weeks since any such cases have been tried there. In this case the court granted Mr. Shillington’s request, and released the defend- ant on bis personal bond: ee Exrctton or Suxpay-Scnoon Orricers.—The Sunday-school board of the North Capitol M.

A | row” at the jail yesterday seemed in unusually | $2.50. good spirits. Nelson Colbert and Wm. Briggs who have been making preparations to leave this world on Friday next, received word Satur- day afternoon that the President had extended their time another month, which would make Friday, May 3, the day of execution. Mean- while, their counsel are making every effort to obtain @ new trial, and in case they fail in that direction an appeal will be made to the President for a commutation of sentence.

M. C. A. of the A. M. E. church, the murderers took part in the services. Most of them are ingers. Mr, Roberts, the spiritual ad- viser of the convicted murderers, says that the respite granted Briggs and Colbert did not give them much hope: that they only looked upon it as their chance, and when they heard the news they were not the least moved. The action of the President, Mr. Roberts says, will not stop the condemned men in the religious preparations, The con- demned men, like the others in ‘murderers’ row” are usually restless and it is nearly day- break before they all get under cover. Most of them sleep but little and can be heard at all hours of night praying. Albert Dodson, who was convicted of the murder of Oscar Washington, was in great ood humor. He had been convicted, although e claimed to be innocent, and on getting a new trial was only too glad to plead guilty to manslaughter, because it was easier to go to the penitentiary than it would be to wal the gallows. : Tete Hawkins, who recently killed his wife in South Washington, is in the cell for- merly oceupied by Guiteau, the assassin, He declares that he feels better in jail than he did when he was out. Although he has not yet been converted he feels happy and confident. Carey, the colored man who killed his brother in Freedman’s hospital, has but little to say. When sent to jail he was nearly dead with con- sumption, but under the treatment of Dr. Mc- Williams, the physician at the jail, he has greatly aepeoved: It is not thought, however, that he will live long enough to stand trial. The guards at the jail do not peal be- lieve that either Briggs or Colbert will be hanged. Briggs, they think, stands a good chance of either being sentenced to the peni- tentiary for life or getting a new trial. to Colbert they are not so confident, although, as in the other case, his counsel are working hard to save him from the gallows. scan cual An Interesting Book. “How I Become Consort,” the history of Jeff Gordon, handsomely illustrated, is given away free at the drug stores of this city. . Prony Your Bion. When spring approaches, it is very important that the blood should be purified, as at this season im- purities which have been accumulating for mouths or even years, are liable to manifest themselves and seri- ously affect the health. Hood’s Sarssparilla is un- dorfotedly the best blood purifier. It expels every taint, drives out scrofulous humors, and gives to the blood the quality aud tone essential to good health. Now is the time to take HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA. “My daughter suffered terribly with sore eyes, caused by scrofula humor. We were obliged to keep her out of school for two years. We had medical at- tendance, but she failed to gain relief. At last, know- ing that Hood’s Sarsaparilla had cured my mother of rheumatism, and believing it must be good for the blood, I concluded to have my daughter try it, and it has entirely cured her.” CORNELIUS YEAGER, 412 East Main Street, Marshalltown, Iowa.
