General Sporting News—Athleties at Bergen Point—Rowing at New London—Finals in in the Local Tournament to Be Pisyed This Afterncon. eee ‘There was joy among the base ball “cranks” last night, for after five defeats the Senators had won, They have played some pretty good ball, but just managed to lose. Hoy saved the game at Cincinnati yesterday by one of the most extraordinary catches ever scen at the ball park. With the score standing 5 to 3 in favor of the Senators the Reds came to the bat for their last turn. With two out and Sullivan on first McPhee hit « long line fly into deep center field, It looked good for a home ran. Hoy went after it with all sail set, and when within twenty feet of the fence, by a high, twisting leap, pulled the ball down. Attendance 1,600.

Jones, the pitcher released by Cincinnati, has been captured by New York and will accom- pany the Gothamites on their western trip. St Louis refused to give Shugart $300 ad- Yance money, but Pittsburg, fearful of the deal falling through. advanced him the cash and will collect from St. Louis, Hart of Chicago is trying to block the Gum- bert-Apbey deal. - ittsburg has released Gastright. O'Neill of the Browns bas been released. Another deal, by which Brodie is to be ex- changed for T. Brown of Louisville, is contem- plated. Manager Ward yesterday telegraphed that the Cleveland Club had released Davies to the New Yorks, Davies is a promising pitcher, and he could not get enough work to do with the Clevelands. He isa tall, slim chap, and is said to be a good all-around player. Frank Ward is an acquisition to the Cincin- ‘nati team, both in batting and base running. ‘Tom Daly has developed into as fine an in- fielder as he was. catcher when with the Chi- 0 team some years ago. ““Biakney bas braced up in his fielding, but his batting ia still too weak tosuit Barnie, who is looking for a young blood third baseman. Rusie and Milligan are the heaviest hitting battery in the league. In the seventeen in- ning game on Monday they made seven hits between them. Farrell and Sullivan have been moved up on the batting list and O'Rourke and Mulvey put lower. There will benoSunday base ball in Louis- ville for some time, and the game scheduled for the Orioles July 2 will be played today. The authorities have threatened the clubs with ar- rest if they attempt to psy, on Sunday. Buckley has been rel by St. Louis and will retire permanently, he savas. from the dia- mond. He has lame arm which, the doctors say, will never admit of his playing ball again, ‘St. Louis is already regretting the release of Hawke.- Baltimore was the only eastern club to lose yesterday and Louisville the only western one to win. By securing King Comiskey has added an- other member of the old St. Louis Browns to his Cincinnati team. Again Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Boston won yesterday, and these three clubs are still on even terms in the race for the champion- ship. ‘Tip O'Neill, the hard-hitting outfielder, has | quit the base ball business for good. He has taken the money he earned as « ball player and it now serves asa bank roll for a book. Ti and his brother George, who is an experien bookmaker, are running a book at Sheepshead Bay. Gattney considers it harder to umpire this season than ever before in the history of the game. He bas been doing as good work as any umpire on the staff. “I wish I had six eyes,” anid he, “and then I might be quick enough to see everything and even look around corners. What makes our work harder this year is be- cause, on account of the heavier batting, there are so many more men on bases than there were formerly, and © man has to be very quick to watch the men on bases and call balls and | strikes. Maybe this would be the time for the double umpire system, but that has been done away. ‘The present championship race is the most | wonderful in the history of the league. Eleven of the twelve clubs are bunched and it is but a | short jump from eleventh place to the head of the procession. In six weeks there have been six different leaders. St. Louis, Cleveland, | Pittsburg. Boston, Brooklyn and Philadelphia | have all enjoyed the distinction of showing the way on some part of the 1898 route. NEARING THE END. finals will be played today, and on Saturday Mr. Davidson, the present champion of the District, will meet the winner of the finals in the singles, Messrs. Geoghegan and Thompson will play in the finals and the winner will tackle Mr. Davidson. Messrs. Woodward and David- ton will play the winner of the match between the McPherson brothers and Mesers.

Interest Felt Here on Account of the Im- pending Hostilities, The impending hostilities between France and Siam are of more than ordinary interest to the United States, for the reason that this go ernment declined the application of Sinm to intervene in behalf of « peaceful settlement of the controversy. The dispute arose over » question as to what constitutes the eastern Doundary of Siam. According to Siam this boundary is marked byachain of mountains parallel to the seaboard, whereas Franco insists Jontier of Annem extends as far weet asi! sho chief river of Siam. The differe.._../ serious, as a vast area, comprising the province of Laos, is included between the river and the mountains. Heretofore Siam has shown a spirit of conciliation in this matter. She allowed the French to occupy, without re- sistance, a few months ago the important | seri of Khong and Stung-treng.on the eastern nk of the Mekong, although they had wita- jtan n from them Afterward some e | Sghting occurred at Khong, and local forces besieged it, but the garrison was relieved with- out fighting. Other places in the disputed area were as easily occupied by the French, and Siam even expressed regrets and promised m- demnity for the killing of some of the French native at one point. A SERIOUS. cRISIS. The avowed intention of France to bombard the important port of Bangkok gives an en- tirely different aspect to the case and it is now feared that a crisis is imminent. King Khoula- Jonkorn has two cruisers of 1,620 tons and h a dozen small gunboats, while lately there has deen building for him in Scotland » 2,500-ton teel cruiser. which carries four 4.7-inch guns and a secondary battery. He kas a very small regular army, but, of course, would arm the people in resisting the French. Siam occupies ‘an unenviable position aaa buffer between the British possessions in Burmah and the French in Annam, Cochin China and Cambodia, The French navy in those waters is strong and effective, and @contest can have but one result, especially as Great Britain shows no dis- position to interfere. NO ACTION NEEDED BY THE UNITED STATES. The United States so far has taken no interest in this matter for the very good reason that ite rights are in no wise involved. In case our in- terests are affected, the Lancaster and the Marion of the Adriatic station are the only naval veasels anywhere near the scene of dan- ger. They are at Chinese ports over 2.500 miles away. It ib learned on the bestauthority, however, that the administration does not coi sider that the situation calls for any action whatever on the part of the United States, : The Craiser Detroit. Arrangements were made at the Navy De- partment today to send the new cruiser Detroit, now at Baltimore, to the Norfolk navy yard by the 12th proximo to receive her guns and to be placed in commission. It is doubtful if she will be ready for active service before the mid- dle of September. She will not be assigned to any foreign atation until October. ‘The ques- tion of what station she will be ordered to has not yet been settled. Her full complement of officers will join her at Norfolk. nee a Dr. Wm. N.

A SILVER JUBILEE. Bev. Father Mackin Oclebrates the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary OF HIS ORDINATION. Impressive Keligious Services Held ts St. Pauls Church This Morning—The Priest's Guests and the Surprise That Greeted Him st Breakfast—Reeeptions in His Honor. ‘Today is a very happy one for Rev. J. F. Mackin, pastor of St Paul's Church, corner of 15th oud Vtreota, It is his ailver jubilee, the twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination to the pricsthood, and pastor and flock are celebrating it in a pleasant but thoroughly walk | characteristic way. If any one doubted that this devoted pastor and congrégation are not one big happy family, a glimvse of the celebration would remove it, There was no formal program arranged, because Father Mackin would not enjoy anything likely tomake himself the central figure. The people are #0 fond of their pastor that ten to one any formal Proceedings would come to an abrupt termina- tion, because they just feel too happy te’put it in words, TRE RELIGIOUS BXERCISES, Of course the event and the date being St. Paul's day and the feast day of the church made the religious part of the celebration the most striking. Of the prieste who received holy orders with Father Mackin, five or six are living. Of this number three are his guests today—Right Reverend J. O'Sullivan, bishop of Mobile; Rev. V. F. Schmitt, pastor of St. Joueph's Chureh in this city, and Rev. J. P. Carey, pastor of St. Peter's Church, Waldorf, Md. From early morning till 9 o'clock there were many masses said in the vine-clad and pic- turesque little church of St. Paul’, At 7 Bishop O'Sullivan was the celebrant, and his mass was said for the eternal repose of the ts who ordained with him have passed ‘ond this life. 9 o'clock the little church was filled again with devout worshipers and Father Mackin celebrated a mass of thankegiving. ‘con- gregationai singing was led by Rev. Father yynadier, assistant pestor. The altar wks tastefully decorated the gospel Father address. He said over the ‘elapsed since his ordination at St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore. He asked the co tion to unite with him in thankegiving to God for all the given to strength for perse: O'Sullivan and Fathers Schmitt and Carey were in the sanctuary. ‘A GENUINE GUBPRISE. ‘When Fathor Mackin returned to the rectory for his breakfast he found assembled sround . his table Bishop O'Sullivan and the priests. book on had his ped in ailver. On top of it rested twenty-five bright, silver dollars, and inside, greenbseks to the amount of €225 were smoothly folded. This gift was the result of a dime jubilee chain, started over ® month ago by Walsh, a ‘oung lady of the parish. She wrote three ters, asking each recipient for 4 dime and to make ‘three copies of the letter, sending the same request to other friends, ' The letters went as far as California, With the purse was Presented» amall book containing the names of the 1,200 persons who made up the chain. FATHER MACKIN'S FIRST RECEPTION. ‘The first reception that Father Mackin held today was for the children of the parish, with whom he is great favorite, They assembled in the Sunday school room at 10 o'elock, and from that till noon they had all the fun'they wanted. hall was bung with American flags, and the young folks bad refreshments combined with their good times.

In the Criminal Court, Judge McComas, this morning there was almost « painful silence when the two colored boys, George Hardy and Edward Norris, were brought up for the sen- tence of death to be imposed for the murder of Peter H. Young on Capitol Hill on July 22 last, ‘The motion for a new trial was, after argument, overruled yesterday. This morning the boys on entering the court room seemed®to have little concern for their position. Mr. Jones of their counsel was present. George Hardy was first called and the court proceeded to pass the sentence as follows “George Hardy, the sentence of the court is that you be taken tothe common jail of the District of Columbia, from whence you came, and be there kept in close confinement till Fri- day, the 12th day of January, 1894, when you shall be taken to the place prepared for your execution, within the walls of satd jail, and be- tween the hours of 8a.m. and 12m.,be hung by the neck until you are dend. And may God have mercy upon your soul.” ‘The prisoner received the sentence stoically, showing less feeling than was shown by the Judge, whose manuer and voice were ted to make an impression on a stoic. Norris received his sentence, which followed, in just as indifferent a mood. ae THE BILL FILED Against the Washington and Aritngton Road by Bondholders. The Woodbridge & Turner Engineering Company, the Edison General Electric Com- pany, the J. G. Brill Company and Pepper & Register have, by Mr. H.

BOTH SLEPT SOUNDLY. Both men retired early and slept soundly. ‘Their appetites were first-class and they had no diffeulty in clearing away fried chicken, soft crabs, ham and and fried potatoes and other similar meals furnished them by Mr. T.C. Tucker from the Farmers’ Hotel. This morning for their last breakfast on earth they ordered bam and eggs, spring chicken, hot rolis and coffee, THE FAREWELLS TO RELATIVES. Both condemned men had taken leave of their relatives aud the leavo taking was done with but slight manifestations of sorrow. Barber's sister-in-law visited bim and brought some clothing, but he refused them, saying the county would furnish him clothing and what she had would do for the children. She bade him good-bye and left, being the only rolative of Barber who called to bid him farowell. Barber's wife died only a short time before he was arrested for participation in the murder. Pinkney’s wife and three-year-old son and hia half sister were his callers. Both women have had their mourning dresses made and will wear them at the funeral today. The con- demned man's wife and child were first con- ducted to the iron grating of the cell and there they were permitted to talk to the father and husband, who was to be with them but a short while. PINKNEY's WORDS OF ADVICE. Pinkney talked in a serious strain, beseeching his wife to, bring up the children in a proper manner and always sce that they did not neglect their religious duties Mrs. Pinkney sobbed a Uttle while her husband did the talking. “Always vend them to church,” he told her, “for if [bad gone to church I would have been & good -itizen like some other of my neighbors whe are now enjoying life on their farms with thotr families,” There was no kissing good-bye, nor was there any demonstration of Ee other than a few sobs of the wife, who i: than twenty- four hours would be made a widow. After their departure the balf sister, Cha: lotte Wood, was shown to the cell and held told her to remember that it was necessary for her to say her prayers, and when she was about to leave there was something enid about hand- shaking. There is a superstition existing among the | colored people that to shake the hand of a con- demned man means trouble in the near future. Althongh there was a discussion of the question the parties shook hands and that was the last time she saw him. ‘T have one request to make of you, one of the men in the jail to Pinkney just after he bad taken leave of hie half sister. “If sible I want you to come back and see me after you are dead.” “I certainly will do it,” said Pinkney. wasa striking contrast between the two condemned men so far as their spiritual welfare and general conduct was concerned. Barber was quiet and had but little to say, while Pinkney was ready to talk at any time, and the more he talked about the crime the better he | ™ liked it. He seldom seemed to tire when talk- ing on that subject, and all bis stories of the affair told since his second imprisonment were same. WANTED PIEs AT 10 o'cLock. At 10 o'clock last night the condemned men sent for Dr. L. A. Griffith, the jail physician, who hastened to the jail to see them, thinking they were probably ili. were ‘not, how- ‘They were in excellent spirits and had ood appetites. “Wo want some pies,” said Pinkney, who did the talking for both. Bat there were no pies in Marlboro’ and the doctor sent them some cakes, promising tosend them some pies early in the morning. Pinkney also thanked the doctor and his thirteen-year-old son, Allen Griffith, for their Kindness during the past few weeks. The little boy bas been carrying baskets of food to the condemned men, which they highly ap- preciated. “Now, Pinkney,” said Dr. Griffith, “you ‘have told severul different stories of the mur- der. I want to know whether or not your re- cent confession iv the truth?’ “Every word of it is the truth,” was his re- sponse. “I wish you had told it during the trial then," broke in Darber from the other end of prison, “and then I would not have been here now. ‘The doctor then turned to the religious affairs of the condemned men, and Barber said he felt that he had made all preparations for the future, “I never contemplated murder,” he said, “nor did I ever kill or attempt to kill any one.”” Pinkney was rather uncertain about his future. “I know where I am,” he said, ‘‘and I hope I am going to a better place, but I don’t know.” doctor then bade them good night and they requested that he call to see them in the morning, and they also reminded him not to forget the pies. About 11 o'clock, just after Dr. Griffith had returned home, a wagon reached town on which the sign “Pies” was visible and put up for the night, and from this vehicle some pastry was purchased in the morning for the condemned men. COMING EARLY TO THE EXECUTION. Late at night several teams arrived from Washington and some few also frum the sur- Tounding county. Atter 11 o'clock there was only one saloon in town open, and it remained open all night.

It has certainly been of Great assistance to me when tired and over- worked.” ‘Mental stralt demands nourishment.
