This ix the time for deals and rumors of | deals. ‘The base ball writers are now busy transferring Danny Richardson to New York, Brooklyn and elsewhere, they have engaged the | manager of the Washington team and xecured all the players for the season and are even com- menting on its Inck of strength. Though this | may be entertaining to the writers and their | Teaders it ix none the less untrue. Richardson bas not been traded to Brooklyn and with one | or two exceptions no men have been signed. When the base ball magnates meet in March at New York more progrese can be made in | deals man hour than can be done in a month's correspondence. Until that meeting nothing is | tikely to be done. A report was printed in a Philadelphia paper \ yesterday that one D'Invilliers, formerly a player on the Young America Ball Club of ihat | tnd been eugaged to manage the Wash- |ingtons.

WORLD'S FAIR ATHLETICS, Arranging for Events to Be Held In Chicago Next September by the A. A. U. The world’s fair and athletic championship | committee of the Amateur Athletic Union met Saturday at the Astor House in New York and arranged a series of athletic events to take place at the Chicago brotherhood base ball grounds, Chicago, on September 14, 15 and 16. ‘The fe President Howard W.

The last three months the commodore of the Corneli University navy has been corresponding with Cambridge University in regard toan eight-oared boat race between the crews of Cornell and Cambridge. The correspondence has ail been of a favorable nature, but it was not until the dispatch was received Saturday evening, stating that Cambridge would row Cornell at the world’s fair, that it was really imagined that she would accept the overtures and would row in America. The news was en- thusiastically received and spread like wildfire over the campus. t."Ives of the Yale crew, however says: “It will make no difference with Yale whether Cambridge, Oxford or any other English crew goes to Chicago. Yale will not send a crew to | the fair under any circumstances. We have | refused the invitation of the Chicago navy to enter the regatta which is being arranged for the world’s fair and that decision was final. | I'm safe in saying that Harvard will take the | same stand in the matter.” Apparently ale takes an unsportsmanlike stand, but the reasons given are good ones. It is cinimed that there is no course at Chicago, | which ts trae. The N. A.

A. A. | 0. that they would. The Chicago navy must } put out a fuller prospectus if it seeks the con- fidence of oarsmen. TO GO UNDER THE HAMMER. The Magnificent Home of the Manhattans to Be Sold. A crisis in the affairs of the Manhattan etic Club of New York arrived Saturday xnd a meeting was held at the club house that night to make oue final effort to save the club from dissolution. The meeting was not called to order until 9 o'elock, and yet only from 200 | to 300 members were present in the little | theater. | JOHAN “Men diligent in their business | stand before kings” Johann Hoff has not only stood before kings, because with, untiring energy he has scattered the benefits of his Malt Extract all over the world, but he has also received from them of Beanty in| CeTtiticates of excellence and per- purveyor of Malt Ex- tract to their respective courts— an honor truly to be appreciated, yet a testimony at the same time to the public at large that Johann Hoffs Malt Extract is worthy of universal patronage.

On Friday Mitchell | wanted the loser to have 20 per cent of the } stakes. ‘The two parties met Saturday evening. | After a very littie preliminary discussion | | Mitchell announced that he was willing to con- | code that the winner should take all the purse. Superintendent Byrnes took a hand in the | affuir. He read in the papers Saturday morn- | ing, to bis great surprise, he says, that men | were openly in New York city making, or at- tempting to make, arrangements for a prize | | | | fight between two men named James Corbett and © e saperintendent heard further zements would be con- | tinued Saturday. He said he would cause all concerned in the prize fight arrangements to be arrested if the inatter went any further. ‘The tuperintendent+enid that chapter 458 of the penal gode made it a misdemeanor to arrange for a frize fight. Acting under orders from Supt. Byrnes, Capt. Slevin and four of his men appeared at the place where the prize fighters or their representatives were to meet. They had in- structions to arrest any one who tried to bring about a fight. Shortly f meeting was surrounded, and at 1:30 | Inspector Willams and Capt. Slevin enter: the building and at once made known their mission. Word was sent to Mitchell and Brady and the other men expected to attend the meeting | explaining the situation and they did not ap- | pear. The conditions agreed to and informally jotted down before the question of dividing the purge came up were: ‘The match to be for €19,000 a side and the largest purse offered by the Coney Island, Cres- cent or Olympic Athletic Club. Phil Dwver to be the stakeholder or in case of his refusal to a. achard of Boston or Ed Kearney of New York ci The fight to take place in the second week in December, the day to be determined three | weeks before the fight. | One-half of the purse to be deposited by the club the day the contestants sign the agree- ment, the other half twenty-four hours before they enter the ring. Marquis of Queensbury rules to govern and the fight to take place in a twenty-four foot ring. Thirty days to be allowed to the competing clubs in which to bid for the fight.

New Yous, Feb, 20.—Charley Mitchell says: |“Tthink that my fight with Sullivan was a harder one than this is likely tobe. My own opinion is that Sullivan is the greatest fighter ever born and if Corbett had tackled him in | his prime he would not be champion today—I mean Corbett wouldn't.” “And what do you think of Corbett as compared with Jackson?” “I think Corbett's chances with Jackson would Le better now than ever. When he fought him to a draw in San Francisco he was a young, inex- perienced man and the black fellow had already made a record. Now Corbett hns been sparring around the country and fought Sullivan, and of course he learned a great deul and can do bet- ter than he did before.

Three months ago Henson Gant, a negro, took unto himself a wife, and today he was in the Police Court for not fuifilling his marriage vows. He had promised to love, honor and cherish her, as well as to protect her, but there was nothing in the court proceedings to show that he loved her, and there was positive proof that he was not protecting her. Assault on bis better half was one charge and disorderly conduct was the other. The wife said that Henson was going to leave her and the was willing for an equal division of the property, but he wanted to take her trank and clothing. She objected and he assaulted her. He was fined $10 or thirty days. ————— Ow Satunpar evening a new spring overcoat was stolen from © dummy set in front of Mr. Charles Kaufman's, 431 7th street northwest, and Mr. Kaufman ‘seeing the thief start with it gave chase, but failed to overtake him.

Dr, Hamlin on the Hi; The theme of the second sermon yesterday morning in the course now being delivered at the Church of the Covenant by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Hamlin, on current theological ques- ns, was “Higher Criticism.” The speaker said that the word higher was used in contra- distinction to the word lower. The latter has to do with serving the best attainable text of | the scriptures, while the higher may bo termed literary criticism which studies the various books. The attitude that maintained toward the higher criticism, the speaker said, should be one of suspended judg- ment. Let ua say to the critics, “Go on with ‘your work and we will wait for more light.” | ‘He thought that this criticism carried on in a devout and reverent spirit is hardly a matter for ecclesiastical discipline. “The church in- deed may. if so disposed, rid itself of all the crities by the proces of ‘dircipline; it may cast out all original investigators; but this would be to sound its own death kne!! and bury itself in the darkness of the middle ages. Investigation will goon. Men will inquire, and think, and infer, and conclude. For one, I stand for liberty of reverent and Christinn scholarship within the Churei of God.” > Mra, McLean Gets a Divorce. Mary E. McLean has been ordered a decree of divorce from Robert J.
