SPORTS IN GENERAL. What is Going On in Turf, Base Ball and Pugilistic Circles. ERAL ATHLETICS, What is Going on in the Different Clubs. ‘Tue amuseemnt committee of the Columbia Athietic Club has completed its pro- for this month, and beside nine- pin and whist tournaments. the former begin- ning on the 7th and the latter March 20, as | mentioned heretofore, there will be a ladies’ day on the %th inst., from 2 to 6 p. m., which | will this time be in the nature of a musicale, in which some of the best local talent will take Part, inciuding several numbers by lady friends of the club. It is possible that a few gymnas- tie turns will be sandwiched in, and in that event Instructor Crossley will give an exhibi- tion on the single trapeze and Sewell and on the flying trapeze. Then on the Lith it there will be an athletic exhibition, in which some novel turns will be introduced. The date of the “special” sparring contests | bas not yet been fixed. Either the 16th or 18th will be cided upon. For h inst. another “smoker’ Promise? and if the committee presents ha good a “ecard” as upon the last similar occas: it will indeed be a good one The attendance in the gymnasium is as great ae ever and there is much interest here.

The bowling committee hopes at an early day to secure a new set of pins, regula- tion size. ‘The new home of the Carroll Institute will be open to all visitors to the city who may be 1 tocall at any time during the inangu- ration season. and a cordial welcome will be extended to all Oscar P. Scum. THE COMING BENCH SHOW. Entries Will Close Tonight, but Entries Malled Before Will Be Accepted. The entries for the approaching bench show of the Washington Kennel Club will close to- night at midnight, but owing to the delayed mails it has been decided to accept all mail entries posted before that time. All day the rooms of the Kennel Club have had the air of prosperity, and no one in them can talk any: thing but dogs. Sam Stinemetz, the president, is ina comatose state, aud conversation with him is impossible unless you allow him to dilate on the assured success of the exhibition. ‘The entries received show ghat the total num- 8 at the show will reach over 600, foreign climes Sosuccessful have ra of this exbibition been that own apt studen 4 possible successor to Sewell. | have decided to send their pe All the and foliowing closely in bis footsteps. solee Glimateat Nee Sack? ae aad Howar: who, under Crossley. | Piitimore have entered, end’ the she’ will be fs rap: 0 the top, and his work | second to none ever held on the and horizontal bar is worthy of especial mention.

Entries for the ninepin tournament closed on the 2d instant. and the several assignments have been published in Tux Stan, and it cer- tainly premises to be a very interesting series of games. as not only the bowlers who make Rinepins « specialty, but many of the tenpin “cracks” have entered. The first assignment Will bow! tomorrow evening. The new bowling committee is Jacobus S. Jones, William M. Dove and Sidney Smith. Mr. Ciaas Denekas, one of the best “pony bali” bowiers here, has signified his intention of presenting a han silver water service as the first prize to be awarded to the winner of the “cocked hat” tournament and not to the winner of the ninepm tournament as erroneously published on Wednesday last. Ths prize will be given in addition to the regular first prize and thi announcement will more than ever increase the interest im the “cocked hat” tourney. which follows im- mediately after the ninepin series. The Columbia Bowling Club, the members of which are aiso enthusiastic members of the CA. C., will have its annual prize bowling mes at its meeting place at Heurich’s in April. As every man receives a prize, it is made the more interesting to know who will receive the highest and lowest and intermediate ores. Prizes are given for highest score. highest singie game, best average. lowest score and lowest single game, and #0 on. Dr. Lockhart is a strong bowler and will maxe his presence feit in the C. A.

PREPARING FORK A LONG RIDE Wheetmen Will Take as Soon as the Koads Permit The Cleveland weather Thursday changed the thoughts of the wheelmen from the gay and festive scenes with bands of music and colors flying to a ride over the roads in the warm sunlight and a stop now and then by the rvad- side at a spring or pump to rest and get a drink of the refreshing beverage. ‘The wheelmen are getting everything in readiness for a long ride as soon as the weather and the roads will permit and then the runs will be more largely attended than they are at present, The only road orer which the wheel- men have as yet been able to go is the conduit road between here and the Anglers’ Club House, although some of the wheeimen have cat Falls and Dick Arlington Wheelmen and Last Sunday tl Georgetown Cycle C:ub turned out and went as far as Cabin John bridge. and that will be the destination of many of the wheelmen tomor- row.

The former has said he would accept La Blanche’s challenge, which was made a few days ago. THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C, John P. Clow. The battle lasted for ten rounds and was declareda draw. Clow and Smith then traveled together, making a great fight of four rounds each night. Smith next fought Dick Matthews, the heavy-weight Australian, whom he beat ‘in six rounds. George Ingle, the butcher boy of Minneapolis, nex$ gave way to the coming opponent of Joe Goddard. Then in quick succession the following men were downed: Dan Gallagher, Lawrence Far- relland George Lablanche, the latter being | whipped in two rounds in Denver Febrnary 21, | 1889. This win over the then great ‘Marme” gave Smith a standing in pugilism the equal of which few men enjoyed at that time. Smith's late battles were with George Godfrey and Joe Choynski During Peter Jackson's first tour of the east Smith met the dusky antipodean and fought a five-round mill with bim, winning great credit for the game manner in which he attempted to offset the Australian's great weight. In the lat fight Goddard was regarded | a8.an almost certain winner. The betting was largely in his favor. Another Centary Club. Several of the prominent road riders of Mary: land, District of Columbia and Pennsylvania are organizing the Maryland Century Club. The initiation feo will be $3.50, and there will be no dues.

A.C. Ninepin Tournament. There seems ‘to be more interest, if that is possible, in the niney tomorrow night than there was in the tenpin tourney. There are some thirty entries from among the best bowlers in the city, and a very enthusiastic lot they are. On account of the great interest that is being token in this tourney, and at the request of many of the players, it has been decided by thebowling committee to have the tournament consist of three series of five games each, in- stead of two seri of five games as heretofore enuounced in Tux Stak. ‘ihe members of the first assignment, which will play tomorrow night, is composed of Harry C.

A telegram was sent Friday to Harry Wel- don of Cincinnati asking him to make the match at once for $500 a side. It is hardly probable that Roeber will take on with Wittmer, as he ried the game once before and found it too herd. The Ryan-Dawson Fight Off.

Bonilla at the Head of the Victorious Insurgents. ‘The New York Herald's Panama correspond- ent cables: A new revolution bas broken out in southern Honduras which may lead to the overthrow of Ponciano Lesva and possibly involve all Cen- tral American republics in war. Policarpo Bonilla is the leader of the new revolt. Gen. Terrencia Sierra is the chief of the revolution- -¥ army, which Bonilla has organized, and to- gether they make up the strongest combination that could be formed in southern Honduras. Bonilla’s first victory was won yesterday on the Plaza at Choluteca. That town was pro- tected by a force of 1,500 men, commanded by Gen. Matute. With an army of only 1,000 Bo- nilla and Gen.

TWO HUNDRED ARRESTS MADE, BUT MOST WERE CASES OF KIMPLE DRUXK—THOSE WHO AP- PEARED IN JUDGE KIMBALL'S COURT THIS ‘MORNING AND THE JUSTICE THEY RECEIVED. “The keeping open of barber shops yester- day was a public necessity,” remarked one of Lieut. Amiss’ policemen yesterday. ‘Not for the reason that hair cuts and shaves could not have been postponed. but because the hat stores wore closed. You see,” he added, ‘there were so many heads at their maximum sizes that a reduction was necessary and that could only be done by the application of tonics and a good rubbing. And it was done toa very large ex- tent.” Those who enjoyed the luxury were not altogether those who had been unfortunate enough to keep out of the bands of the police, for many of those who had been held over night left the police stations going in the direction of tonsorial artist's establishment. Saturda; d even yesterday the police patrol wagons were kept on the run, hauling in those who had imbibed too freely, and the officers were as lenient as possible, making all allow- ances they could for the occasion. The result was that plain “drunk” and not disorderly con- duet was lodged against them, and they were permitted to depart in the early morning in- siead of having to go to court and take the chances of further confinement in the work house. TWO HUNDRED ARRESTS. During the forty-eight hours ending at 8 o'clock this morning the police made more than 200 arrests, but owing to the large number of plain drunks there was a small crowd in the Police Court dock this morning. There were ly thirty-seven of them in place of the usual fifty or one hundred on Monday morning, although the collateral list was considerably larger than usual, many of the depositors being strangers who did not have time to remain in the city and cail for their deposit. Judge Kimbali was on hand promptly at 8 o'clock this morning and the procession moved. one hour earlier than usual, ‘Those who answered first were William Barry and John Donohue and they were accused of having been disorderly on the street yesterday. Both taeu showed evidences of a wet celebra- tion, and one of them was so badly braixed about the face that his most intimate friends could not have recognized him. “Gnilty.” replied one man, and “so am I,” said the of! “Fifteen days in default of the usual fine.” THREE MEN WHO TOLD DIFFERENT STORIES. ‘There were three names on the next infor- mation and they represented three young men who were strangers in the city.

They were working in the rear, where the crowd wns thickest. I saw them meet and then separate, and when [ arrested one of them another one came over, and before I had reached the box the third one appeared.” ‘They had told the officer that they were from Baltimore, but when questioned by the court they told a different story m from Cincinnati,” said one of them ‘and Eeame from Boston,” said another. “We came to sce the inauguration,” said the third member of the party, “but we were not a nted until we met b: ’ ou can have ten days each,” said the judge, ‘and when you get out you had better go home.” A VIRGINIA DEMOCRAT'S PLEA.

FINED FOR PROFANITY. ‘They were in Mount Vernon Square last even- ing and Policeman Robertson heard them in- dulging in some profane language. There were three of them in the party and they were all arrested. Sam Gesby, Sam Smith and Sam Brown were the names they gave, and their case occupied about two minutes of the court's time, when they turned back to go down for days unless they each paid a $5 fine. replied a little colored boy named Horace Briggs,who was charged with disorderiy conduct. “He was in a crowd of crap shooters out in the county,” said Officer Prestim, and Judge Kimball said ‘five dollars.” Joseph Gray was tried on a charge of being a suspicious person.

The London Daily News says editorially of President Cleveland's inaugural address: “It was of the occasion, which is recog- nized universally as by far the greatest one that Americans bave known since fhe civil war. He read his countrymen a lesson on some faults of the national character, while doing full justice to their splendid qualities, the faults of which are butdefecta, After such an address nobody can say that democracies are to be governed by flattery. The merit of the address lies in the courage of it, What other ruler in Mr. Clere- Jand’s place would have dared to avoid the safe path of obscurity and platitude and give sixty millions of people a piece of his mind?” ‘The Daily Telegraph says: “Mr. Cleveland's brave words would have been more convincing to our minds of great reforms if he had not already been in power and failed to do much to root out the plagues of American life. Tam- many and kindred associations laugh at any efforts to purify politics.” The Daify Chronicle says: “It is along time since an American President has had the cour- age to speak such words to his countrymen, who are accustomed to be addressed from Washington with sprawling flattery. Mr. Cleveland speaks of the silver and tariff ques- tions with the greatest clearness and shows those who thought that now the election was won the ax brandished about the roots of McKinleyism would be laid aside. How completely they were mistaken. The spirit of the whole addres is a welcome new de- ture in American politics.” the Standard deals at length with that part of the address concerning the tariff as of special significance to England. It regards Mr. Cleve- land's utterances as tantamount to a declaration | that the tariff, although reduced, will be so levied as to be essentially protective. “Alto- gether, Mr. Cleveland begins well,” it sas “iis cabinet is x good one; his program is honest enough if only adhered to, while the vast Prosperity of the states is euch that even with the worst rulers it wold be dificult long to retard the progress of the people.” The Daily Graphic says that “Cleveland's | confession of faith is full of good sense, and is arranged in very harmonious style. Itis an admirable sermon on political self-reliance.” The Morning Posts “The address breathes throughout a resolute, pructical tone. ‘The most striking features of it ure the contrast between the vulgar adulation of wealth that characterized the utterance of the republicans and the fair promise to attempt vigorously to restore the fuance and improve the general tone of public life, The Times says: “The address Loldly grap- ples with the most crying evils in American polities in language of refreshirg directness, Which is all the more important because Mr. Cleveland is not fishing for votes. He declares war against McKinleyism and the attendant demoralization. We, however, do not expect any doctrinaire application of the abstract nciples of free trade. His references to the ger of the depreciation of the purchasing power of, eases arein curious contrast to the ions heard among the creatures of the party caneus, Mr. Cleveland during lux former administration was unable to do much to carry out the principles o: civil service reform, and in his promised efforts he will encounter no little opposition, but he occupies an exception aily favorable position for executing the great reforms which he indicates. ‘The Financial News sa: address contains much s < on the currency, although un- effectialiy set at rest all contrasting thus strongiy with the feeble fashion in which Mr. Harrison's cabinet veere 1 day by day because the head of the government could not make up his mind what to do. “Mr. Cleveland's mon KENse, More than two hours on a piece of iceat night in the Chesapeake bay during a blinding snow storm was the experience of C.

The captain and I, the only pertons aboard, ran forward, but could see no damage. Ieven got on the ice to make an examination. Both then went on board and Capt. Hill lay down for a rest and I kept the lookout. “Within half an hour I noticed that the ves- sel began to leak into the cabin. I called Capt. Hill, who came on deck half dressed. The Wishton-Wish began to sink and we imme- diately tried to clear the falls of the boat which was on the stern. The falls had frozen «0 hard that we could not loose them with our hands. I asked for a knife, but before Capt. Hill could get his out the boat began to go down by the head. “Seeing no chance for escape but to make for the ice I jumped overboard and swam to it, 8 it was driven some distance off by the water surging about the sinking vessel. Capt. Hill followed me. As the vessel went down two oars and some litter about the deck floated off and I secured one of the oars and Capt. Hill the other. “By this help I reached themain body of ice. As I forced my way along it broke beneath me for several yards. Capt.

By luck I recovered the oar Thad lost and reached it toward him and begged him to catch it so that I could pull him tome. In his effort to do so the cake upon which he had taken refuge broke into pieces and he said good-bye and tank into the water. “I remained on the ice floe and kept up my courage as best I could, hoping that when day- light came I would be seen and rescued.
