Notes of Important Happenings From Down the River—Soc Personal and General Affairs. A general court-martial has been ordered by Acting Brig. Gen. William Nalle, to sit in Richmond en the night of the 27th in- stant. The court will be compos@ of Capts. Mushback, Keller, Scruggs and Heath of the third regiment; Tarrall, Hig- gens and Tomlin of the fourth regiment, and Holt of the second regiment. It is rumored in military circles here that this court is assembled for the purpose of try- ing the case of the court ordered by Col. Jones of the first regiment, which is lo- cated at Richmond, which court refused to try the cases brought before it, and dis- solved itself because they did not deem the court a legal one.

Mushback of the Alexandria Light Infantry he said to The Star re- porter: “I do not know what the court is to try All I do know is that I am ordered to report in Richmond on the night of December 27 as president of a court-mar- tial then and there to assemble, for the purpose of trying such cases as may be brought before it.” The outcome of the court is looked for with much integest by military men in this city. Regular Meetings. Alexandria Council, Junior Order of Americar Mechanics, held a regular meet- ing last night, at which routine business wag transacted. There will be a called meeting of the Relief Hook and Ladder Company at the truck house tonight at 0) o'clock. A full attendance ts ex- pected, as Lusiness of importance will be transacted. The regular mecting of An- drew Jackson Lodge of Masons was held in their rooms in the market building last nizht, Oriental Lodge, Knights of Pythias, will hold a meeting! in Pythian Hall on Pitt street tonight, and Potomac Tent of Rechabites will hold a meeting in Serepta Hall. Notes. The public and private schools closed this afternoon for the Christmas holidays. Studies will be resumed on January 2. The employes of the Southern railway in this city were paid off yesterday. The Alexandria sports wno went to Washington la:t night to witness the Peck- hem-Ryan boxing match were very much disappointed, as Ryan failed to show up, and Peckham licked the substitute, whos name was Moran, in three rounds with per- fect ease. ‘The Central Republican Club has been organized by the colored voters of this city with M s L, Robinson asgpresident. Mayor Strauss has appointed Kola Henry, William Webster, James Hall, Carry Mills, James Dean and Walter Cline as extra policemen to serve on Christmas day. © a “The Veteran,” A drama of the street, in. two acts, by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps-Ward, will appear complete, with appropriate illustrations, in Saturday's Star. ee Ate Horse and Enjoyed It. Richard 8. Hopkins entertained one hun- dred of the most prominent residents of Newark, N. J., at a banquet of horseflesh at his home Wednesday night. Dr.Hopkins is a veterinary surgeon, and the purpose of the dinner was to show the utility of horse- flesh as an article of every-day diet. The attendance included nearly all of the lead- ing physicians of the city. The meat was served in various forms, and all pronounced it excellent. ————-+ e+ A Christmas Venture.

Atlanta, Ga. @@j|LATE SPORTING NEWS THE CATHOLICS TOOK THREE. Buena Vista Defeated in the Bowling Tournament. The bowling team of the Young Men's Catholic Club chalked up three more games to its credit last night, defeating the Buena Vista by close margins in thé first and sec- ond games, and fairly running away from them in the third. The work of both teams was good, the 700 mark being reached in every game. Little Jimmy O'Connor carried off the honors of the evening; he is a graceful left-hand bowler, and is fast becoming one of the cracks of the league, and withal, in his quiet modesty, he is the pet of his team, ‘The scores, in detail, are as follows: First Game.

EVERY FAV ‘E WON. Alexander .Isluand Becoming a Para- dise for the Talent. If the favorites continue to land first money, as they have been doing so consist- ently of late at the Alexander Island track, the talent will have all the money and the bookies will be forced to seek other occu- pations. Yesterday favorites won every event, and the thirteen men on the stands went home with rolls much shorter than they took to the track. The club yesterday again demonstrated that no crookedness will be permitted, and that so far as it can do so the racing shall be straight. ‘The party to feel the strong arm of track law yesterday was Jockey Manlove, who had been regarded as not only one of the most competent but also one of the reli- able jockeys at the track, the public seem- ingly having the fullest confidence in him. When he dismounted from Frank R. Hart in the fourth race yesterday Presiding Judge Oyster informed him that the club had decided to rule him off the track for tampering with Jockeys Lewis and Corbley. Complaint was first made by Corbley, who stated that he had been approached by Manlove, and it also transpired during the investigation that Manlove -had offered Lewis $50 to pull Prince John on Tuesday in favor of Forest. The discovery was made yesterday that the mare Marguerite had mysteriously dis- appeared from her stable Wednesday night. It was said that one Brannon had taken possession of the mare to enforce a claim he had on her. Judge Gleason, the two- year-old, broke his leg in the third race and was destroyed. The attendance was large, the track in good shape and the racing fair. Sirocco’s five furlongs in 1:01, with 4128 pounds up, was a feature of the sport. The winners were: Fan King, 11 to 10; le, 6 to 5; Thurston, 7 to 10; Sirocco, 8 to 5, and Indra, 1 to 2. The Barnie-Pfeffer Hearing. William Barnie and Fred Pfeffer were heard before the board of arbitration of the National Base Ball League in New York yesterday, the former verbally and the latter by a long written statement. The question was upon their restoration to their former standing in the league. N. E. Young, A. H. Soden and C. H. Byrne represented the board of arbitration. It was declared that there was no proof of Mr. Barnie’s disloyalty, but Pfeffer did not succeed in clearing his skirts. Mr. Barnie, however, refused to sign an agreement pledging per- petual loyalty to the national agreement, and club managements were notified to act appropriately. ‘This, of course, is a virtual blacklisting. Angry words passed between Messrs. Byrne and Barnie at the conclu- sion of the meeting, and the latter threat- ened to publish some facts showing the former's disloyalty to the national agree- ment in times past. Foot Ball Captains for 1895. ‘The leading college foot ball teams have elected captains for the season of 1895 as follows: Amherst, Pratt; Chicago, Allen; Cornell, Wyckoff; Dartmouth, McCormack; Harvard, C. Brewer; Illinois, Hotchkiss; Lafayette, Boericke; Lehigh, Trafton; Michigan, Henninger; Minnesota, Larson; Pennsylvania, Williams; Princeton, Lea; Trinity, Langford; Virginia, Mudd; Wil- liams, Hickey; Yale, Thorne. A Chance for Washington. President Byrne of the Brooklyn club has received a letter from Catcher Grim ac- cepting the club's terms and asking that a contract be forwarded to him, It is said that Grim will get the salary Hmit in Brooklyn, $2,400, and will be used as a catcher only, although he is a first-class in- fielder. President Byrne intimated that any club wishing to purchase the releases of Kins- low, Dailey, Burns, Shindle and Daly could do 80. He said that thes players had been members of the Brooklyn team a trifle too long, and that they would undoubtedly do better work elsewhere. Tredway may play right field, although that arrangement hed not been definitely made. War on the Pugilists. A supplementary injunction has been filed by Attorney General Cunningham of Lou- isiana against the Olympic Club of New Orleans, under the claim that limited roun Orleans under the claim that limited round contests are prize fights, in violation of the law. Snapper Garrison to Ride No More. Jockey Garrison will ride no more. He cannot get to weight and will try his hand as a starter. He already has secured that position at the St. Paul (Minn.) rack. THE CHRIST! DAY GAME. Preparing to Close the Local Foot Ball Season With a Flourish. Dr. F. R. Hudson, surgeon of the Boston and Albany Railroad Company, and mana- ger on the part of the Union College foot ball eleven, paid visits to Secretary La- mont, Secretary Morton and Senator Hill yesterday and invit@d them to be pres- ent at the Christmas game. They did rot decide definitely to accept, but it is ex- tremely probable that one or more of them will be present. In a letter received from the captain of the Union team yesterday it was stated that the snow had entirely left the ground, and that the boys were prac- ticing daily on the campus. They will ar- rive in this city next Monday afternoon on a special train, accompanied by about fifty friends and upward of 300 excursionists from Albany and neighboring points. While here the players will stay at a hotel, but the Columbia Athletic Club will be their training quarters, as the club men have very courteously tendered the students the use of the locker room, the baths and the rivileges of the club.’ Of course, not as large a crowd 1s to be expected at the Tuesday game as were present on Thanks- giving day, but still persons will have to be on hand early to get a good seat. The gates will be open about an hour before the game, which begins at 12 o'clock, and, as is now contemplated, only twenty-five minute halves will be played. From the prospects the game will be a sharply con- tested one on the part of both elevens. Re- served seat tickets for the contest were . ; THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. eee placed on sale at Metzerott music store yestet , and will admit to the grand stand only. Secretary Townley A, McKee of the ©. A. C. has written to Will Church and Phil King of Princeton, Brooke = Pennsylva- nia, Butterworth of Yale and Taussig of Cornell requesting them to take the posi- tions made vacant by the loss of Leete, Adam Johnson, Stuart Johnson, Harder and, possibly, Frank Jolinson. Secretary McKee does not, however, think that his requests will be complied with in the case of Butterworth and King, but as for the other three he has good reasons to believe they will accept. But Brooke of “Pennsy” is well worth seeing any day. GOOD CARD FOR CHRISTMAS. An Attractive Program Being Pre- pared for Alexander Island. Secretary Tompkins ts making prepara- tions for an unusually attractive card for Christmas day, and a long distance race will be one of the features, The class of horses at the track is daily improving, al- though the club has about every day re- fused to stable many anxious to come on. As the result of the big fields and the good quality of the horses running at the track now the Alexander Island events are more extensively played throughout the coun- try than those of any other track. Hatfield to Play at Louisville. Gil Hatfield, who played here in 1891, is to get back into league company next sea- son, and Louisville has drafted dim to play third base. Base Ball Matters. Claim to Martin Bergen, the eastern catcher, has been waived by the Washing- ton club, as that player had received ad- vance money previously from the Kansas City team. The material for next year’s Washington team is being gathered.Pitch- er Malarky’s contract has been received, as well as Al. Maul’s and V. 8. Anderson. Other pitchers on the list’ are Haddock, Stocksdale, Boyd and Mercer. Crooks has been secured to play second base. He was a rattling second baseman when he played with Columbus, but has never set the river on fire since. ‘Cartwright and Joyce will cover first and third, as before. Abbey, Hassamear and Selbach will be seen in the fleld. Radford has been released. Mr. Schmelz promises to land the club higher than ever before.As it finished tenth in 1svz this promise will be somewhat difficult to fulfill. ‘The statement has been published and credited to Mr. Schmelz that the past seascn was the first one since Washington was in the league that it did not finish last. This is incorrect. Washington beat out Indianapolis in 1887. CHILDS, BURKETT AND McKEAN. New Yorks to Have Them for $25,000, According to a Story From Cleveland. What will be the worst blow to base ball ever sustained in Cleveland seems about to tail, says a Cleveland special. It looks now as if the story about New York buying Childs is far more truth than ficticn. Yesterday Secretary Robison re- ceived a letter from his brother, Frank D. Robison, president of the Cleveland club, who is now in New York. It states that New York is not only serious about Childs, but also wants Burkett, McKean and Te- beau. The letter closes with the statement that he is making negotiations for the sale of all except Tebeau and they probably will go through. What the terms offered for the players are is not at present defin- itely known, but it is said that New York is willing to give $25,000 for the trio. “What is that amount of money to the Giants,” asked Secretary Robison, “when you consider the advantage these men would be to them? They would get it back in the first month's receipts. With these men they could win the pennant hands down.” The Columbi Next Smoker. Judging from the list of attractions, the smoker at the Columbia Athletic Club to- morrow evening will surpass anything of the same nature yet presented in the club house. German music will prevail, and from that fact and also on account ‘of the refreshments, which will be on the sauer- kraut order, the affair has been called “A Night in Germany.” Among those who will appear are the McCabe Brothers, the Dudley Buck Octet, “Sloppy Weather” Quartet, Messrs. McIlveen,Ireland, Gilmaine and a host of others. Columbins and the Rifles. The basket ball team of the Columbia Athletic Club and the National Rifles play- ed two twenty-minute halves in the C. A. C. gymnasium Wednesday night, the score being 30 to 0 in favor of the Columbias. Instructor Joyce of Carroll Institute was the umpire. Colored Elevens to Play Foot Ball. Elevens from Lincoln University of Penn- sylvania and Howard University of this city, the two leading colored colleges in this country, will play a foot ball match this afternoon at National Park. Dixon and Young Griffo Matched. Geo. Dixon, champion feather-weight pugilist, and “Young Griffo” have been matched to fight twenty-five rounds before the Seaside Athletic Club, Coney Island, on January, 19, for a purse of $3,000, the win- ner to take all the money. “My Lady Primrose.” A fairy story, by Mary E. Wilkins, will appear in Saturday’s Star, See Columbian College Players. A meeting of the board of directors of “The Players of Columbian University” was held Wednesday evening at the unt- versity law building, at which several mat- ters of importance were considered in con- nection with the presentation of the opera “Dorothy” last Friday at the New National Theater. The report of the treasurer was subi 1 for audit, and indicates that the production was a financial, as well as an artistic success, and while nothing definite could be decided upon at this time regard- ing a repetition of the opera, it is probable that another performance ‘will be given later in the season, in the evening and at popular pric The board adopted a resolution giving the highest praise to the cast, chorus end ballet, and extending its thanks to Mr Cloward, the musical and stage direct to Mr. Vermilya, who had charge of the dances, and to the patronesses and sub- scribers. As Mr, Cloward’s contract with the organization has now expired the ques- tion of his re-engagement as director will be considered at a future meeting.
