8 THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1895-TEN PAGES. SUBURBAN NEWS| ANACOSTIA. Thomas Addison, aged seventy, died sud- @enly about noon yesterday in the house of Mrs. Emma Green, on Nichols avenue, Hillsdale. Dr. Scott, who was called in, gave a certificate of death from apoplexy. ‘There was considerable excitement on Jackson street near Pierce last night, caus- ed by the attempt of an unknown man to force an entrance into the house of Mr. J. W. Crawford. The fellow first tried to break through a down-stairs window, and failing in that he climbed to the roof of the house. He was finally frightened away by Mr. Charles Crawford. Private Watchman Willlam Webster, ac- companied by a number of boys, made a raid last night on a stable owned by Mr. W. Marden King, and captured a small colored boy named James Smith, who has been in the habit of sleeping there. He was taken to the Anacostia substation, and a charge of vagrancy lodged against him. It is said that not for many years has there been such a great supply of fruits and vegetables as have been raised this season in Prince George's ccvnty, Md., and the result is that all articles in those lines can be bought in Anacostia and Southeast ‘Washington at lower prices than for a long time past. Rev. W. G. Davenport of Anacostia has determined to go to Edinburgh, Scotland,to see for himself whether he can identify the remains of the young man, who was recently killed on a rallroad near that city, as those of his son Dara, who has been missing since July 5. It fs probable that he would have started before this, but he has been awaiting the arrival of the clothing and other effects of the young man, which are now in the possession of the Edinburgh police officials, and which it was understood wold be sent here. Mr. Daveaport will have an interview shortly with the proper officers at the State De- partment in reference to securing the in- fluence of the American legation in Lon- don in attaining the object of his long journey. ——— TAKOMA PARK.

During the progress of a dance at the ome of George Mason, near Boyd's Sta- tion, on Saturday night, Alexander Hebron became involved In an angry dispute with Wm. Prater. Robert Corn, who was stané- ing near, interfered In the Interest of Prater, whereupon Hebron became enraged, and, drawirg a revolver, shot Korn, the ball taking effect in the breast just above DO YOU FEEL DEPRESSED?

Hebron, then flourishing the revolver and threatening any one who should attempt to arrest him, left the ex- eited crowd and made his escape. On Mon- day morning Hebron concluded to sur- render to the authorities, and was brought to this place and committed to jail. At latest accounts Korn was considered to be in a critical condition, with but slight hope for his recovery. All concerned in the a! fair are colored people. A large meeting of citizens was held at the court house Saturday night for the pur- pose of perfecting the organization of a fire department for the town. Two fire companies have been formed, one white and the other colored, and it was decided that each should -select its own officers, temporary appointments to be made for the next six months. It was also decided to have regular drills in handling the new fire apparatus recently purchased by the town authorities. During a game of base ball at the fair grounds on Saturday evening last between the District Commissioners’ team of Wash- ington and the Athletics of this place, Sorrerville Bean, pitcher for the home club, was accidentally struck in the eye by a ball and badly injured. His face was badly cut, and the wound had to be sewed up by a surgeon. It is not thought that the sight of the eve will be impatred. Mr. Wm. A. Cook of Savannah, Ga., has for the past week been a guest at the resi- derce of Mr. Wm. M. Davis, this place. Mr. Cook is a recent graduate of Eastman Col- lege, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., and is on his way to his southern home. Messrs. Leonard Nicholson and Harry Dawson of this town have gone to At- lantic City for a week's stay. ‘Wm. Cook, a colored preacher, residing on the farm of Mr. Chas. H. Brooke, in the 1 eighborhood of Mechanicsville, met with a serlous accident at the railroad station here last night. He was a passenger on the 7:50 train from Washington, and upon its ar- rival here was asleep and did not attempt to get off until the train had started. He was thrown on the platform, and rolled be- tween it and the cars. He was seen to fall by the conductor, and the train was stop- ped immediately. When picked up it was found that he had received a bad scalp wound and was also injured in the back and breast. Dr. E. E. Stonestreet, physi- cian to the railroad company, was sum- moned, and dressed the wound on his head, after which he was placed on a stretcher and carried to the home of a friend at this Place. Previous to the accident he had been conducting a camp meeting near town, and was returning from Washington, where he had been for the purpose of se- curing additional tents for the camp grounds. He Is about fifty years of age, and is well and favorably known in this community. ———— RIVERDALE.

The question of maintaining a two- foot parking along the sidewalks of Wash- ington avenue was brought up, and after discussion it was agreed to allow Engineer English to use his own discretion in main- taining same. Double crossings were or- dered to be placed at the junction of Mont- gomery street and Washington avenue and Prince George's street and Washington ave- nue. The question of the sale of the Main street bonds was brought up and cor- respondence between the mayor and several bankers was read. Mayor Phelps was in- structed to accept the offer of N. W. Harris & Co. of New York to place bonds at a commission of one per cent. The county commissioners of Prince George's notified the council, that the matter of widening Crow Branch bridge would be acted upon shortly and that favorable action would be taken upon allowing Laurel the rebate re- quested on the road tax. An estimate of Contractor Anderson for work performed on Washington avenue, amounting to $1,- 303.10, was submitted and ordered paid. This leaves about $1,500 of the $15,000 yet to be paid on the Washington avenue im- provements. Council also directed that the poles of the Enterprise Telephone Company of Montgomery county, which had been granted the privilege of following a certain route through Laurel, should be forty feet above ground. The members of the council and the mayor will today make an inspec- tion of the Washington avenue improve- ments and order such changes, through the city engineer, as they may deem proper. The young iadies of the West End gave a dance at Shaffer's Hall last night, which was largely attended. Music was furnished by a Baltimore orchestra. Refreshments were served at a late hour. The commit- tee in charge of the dance consisted of Mrs. Benjamin Simmons, Miss Fannie Sakers, Miss Sarah Leizear and Miss Mary Leizear. Mr. Charles F. Shaffer, jr., and wife have returned from a two weeks’ visit to At- lantic City. Mr. George M.

Scaggs of Branchville, can- didate for treasurer of Prince George's county on the democratic ticket, was in Laurel yesterday evening. — After a Medical Exnminer. Corporal Tanner has addressed a letter to Commissioner Lochren demanding the dismissal of Dr. W. S. Ball, a medical ex- aminer In the bureau. Mr. Tanner cites the case of Charles M. Knapp, late of com- pany A, twenty-sixth Massachusetts, now and for years past an inmate of a hospital at Los Angeles, Cal. The claim was re- jected by Dr. Ball on the ground, Mr. Tan- ner says, that the medical examination showed that he was not disabled in a pen- sionable degree under the disabilities alleg- ed for earning a support by manual labor. The medical board state that Knapp had to be carried from the hospital to come before them and was accompanied by an attendant. Mr. Tanner says there are others in the bureau who ought to be dismissed because of ijustice done to claimants, and offers to furnish names. —_——_-o—____. The Star Out of Town.

The Senators Are Made to Walk the Plank. It looked very much yesterday as though the crew sailing “under the skull and cross-bones flag on the waters of the Ohio and the Allegheny would lose their prey. The senatorial merchantman had clapped on all canvas and seemed about to escape. A loaded shot across the bows brought the victims to, and they were soon forced to walk the plank. The Pirates sent another craft to Davy Jones, or in other words, Pittsburg defeated Washington yesterday. Washington would have been beaten any- way, for the local men couldn’t hit Haw- ley’s detivery. But the defeat should not have bean so glaring. Anderson was kept in entirely too long. Every one could see that he was rapidly tiring. He was losing his speed and was becoming very wild. He was so nervous that he couldn't p:ck up a ball. “Take him out!’’ the bleachers cried, but he was kept in. Finally Malarkey was sub- stituted, and not another run was made. Johnny Ward used to take pitchers out when he saw they were not fit, and he saved many a game by it. Mr. Schmelz’s idea seems to be to change pitchers after the game has been lost, the object being apparently not to save the game, but to give the pitcher practice. An unfortunate incident was the severe injury of’ Jake Beckley, the first ball pitched by Malarkey hitting him on his crazy bone Seors: .0.A.F. 100 1000 1500 1/Stenzei,c1 1500 82D... 2|Bierda’er,2b 0 1 8 4 1 Cartw'ht,1b O|Stuart,ss-.. 1 1 11 0 Schelbeck,ss Clits 1121 Abbey,cf.

McGuire has caught eighty-seven con- secutive games. Walter Brodie is up in arms about a fine of $50 inflicted by Umpire Hunt in that fit- teen-inning Baltimore-Boston game. When Brodie was called out at the home plate on a very doubtful decision, he objected, and became so excited because he thought he had been robbed of the winning run that he laid hold of the umpire. Catcher Danny Coogan, who is now a member of the Orange Athletic Club team, is in the city on a visit of a few days. The Washingtons will play two games in Baltimore next Friday afternoon, the ex- tra being the game postponed from last Saturday. Joe Corbett, who is to be given a trial by the local management, is expected the lat- ter part of this week. Tom Brown has been released by Chris Von der Ahe on account of poor batting. Only three years ago and half a dozen clubs were nearly fighting for Brown. More wanted him than Mike Kelly. There was little kicking yesterday. Hank O'Day made his initial appearance, and made a good impression, giving the home team the best of it where he could. Just at the close of the game at Carlisle, Pa., yesterday afternoon, between: the Car- lisie and Martinsburg teams, Montgomery, the umpire, who is from Philadelphia, was assaulted by a man named Albert. Mont- gomery’s assailant was arrested and placed in jail. The assault, it is said, was pro- voked by some decisions made by Mont- gomery. Capt. Ewing did not play with the Reds yesterday. He says that Baltimore will win the pennant again without trouble, and that Cleveland will not come near it. The Orioles, he says, are the fastest fielding team in the country. The only thing that prevents Philadelphia from being the finest all-around team, he says, is their weakness in _the box. Cleveland ran up against faster company at Chambersburg, Pa., yesterday than it hed expected. In the seventh inning the home team made several bad errors, which lost to them the game by 8 to 7. Stimmell was in the box for Chambersburg until the eighth inning, when he retired in order that a chance might be given “Whitey” Schoenhut to see what he could do with the leaders of the National League. Eleven bits were made off Stimmell and three off Schoenhut. Knell was hit hard by the home team. Capt. Doyle was not at Eastern Park, Prooklyn, yesterday. He claims that he has a lame ankle, but he is able to be on the streets. Much unfavorable comment has been caused by the neglect shown the New Yorks by Capt. Doyle and President Freed- man in the present extremities of the club. Anson and his team left Chicago for the east yesterday with three new men—Pitch- ers Dolan and Briggs and Second Baseman Truby. Stewart was left at home and Tru- by will be put into the game at once. In the seventh a fat rat scampered across the field at Philadelphia yesterday close by Duffy. Long took a hand, and throwing the ball, caught the rodent and killed him outright. It was a great shot. President Freedman’s action in debarring Sam Crane of the New York Advertiser from the polo grounds will redound to the disadvantage of no one save Mr. Freedman. Sull it is in keeping with everything that that gentleman has done since he broke into the national game.—Philadelphia Press. Won by a Seant Margin. The first and second teams of the Y. M. C. A. played an exhibition game yesterday afternoon at Capitol Park that resulted in a victory for the first nine by a score of 18 to 14. It looked like a good thing for the seniors in the first and second innings, scoring thirteen of their runs, but after Townsend took Cook's place in the box, only one cre run result ™arns and Sanburn pitched for the first team and were batted so frequently by the younger boys that they took it as a good Joreapice Mackey called the game in the seventh inning on account of darkness. CHESS MASTERS A TIE. Pillsbury and Tschigorin Have Won the Same Number of Games. The eleventh round of the international chess masters’ tournament was played at Hastings, England, yesterday. The results follow: Lasker beat Gunsberg in a French de- fense after thirty moves. ‘Tinsley beat Vergani in a queen’s gambit, declined after forty-three moves. Mason beat Bird in a French defense after thirty-six moves. Tschigorin beat Marco in a French de- fense after thirty-six moves. Albin beat Mi in a Ruy Lopez after thirty-five move: beat Schiffers in a Ruy Lopez ‘bury beat Teichmann in a Ruy Lopez after thirty-one moves. Biackburn beat ardeleben in a queen’s amb: ined after thirty_moves. d beat Pollock in a P-Qt opening after thirty-eight moves.- Janowsky beat Walbrodt in a Ruy Lopez after seventy-four moves. Schlecter and Tarrasch drew a Ruy Lo- pez after sixty moves. The twelfth round xh he played tomor- row. The results up to date are: Pillsbury, Tschigorin, 9% each; Lasker, 8%4; Bardeleben, 7%; Schiffers, Steinitz, 6% each; Bird, Walbrodt, each; Tarrasch, Teichmann, 5% each; ,Mason, Schlechte1 Tinsler, 5 each; Blackburn, Albin, Burn, Janowsky, Pollock, each; Gunsberg, Marco, 4 each; Mieses, '3%{ Verganl, 1. Shiffers was rather, astonished when Steinitz defended 2 Ruy Lopez offered to him with 3, Kt—K B 3, much as Stein- itz has not played this defense for a num- ber of years. In spite of Schiffer’s exer- tions his opponent soen got the attack, which he kept up with wonderful skill to the end, which came_after fifty moves. Steinitz was in splendid fdrm, especially so in the middle game stage, when he really established his winning chances. Gunsberg adopted a French Defense against Lasker. The latter maintained a well-schemed aggressive movement from the start of the game, and by degrees he managed to accumulate a great advantage in position. Eventually Gunsberg was obliged to give up a pawn, later on enother, and as Lasker played remarkably fine throughout the middle game,it became only a matter of time, so Gunsberg resigned after thirty moves. The young American, Pillsbury, won his ninth successive game against Telchmann after thirty-one moves. He defended Teich- mann’s Ruy Lopez with the Steinitz varia- tion, namely, 3, P—Q 3, and he played so wonderfully well as to get a winning ad- vantage in the opening. Teichmann did not offer much resistance and lost the game. Tschigorin again excelled in his game against Marco, the latter playing a French Defense. The Russian, as Lasker did against Gunsberg, rushed his men with brilliant accuracy and skill toward his ad- versary’s king, keeping up a deadly fire all along the line. Marco soon found himself in an untenable position, and he resigned after thirty-six moves. THE TENNIS TOURNAMEAT. Close Contests Mark the Game for Cairo Club Supremacy. Play in the Cairo Tennis Club tourna- ment was continued at the club grounds yesterday.

On Lake Champlain yesterday the race meet of the American Canoe Association began, with a good Mst of entries for all the events. There were ten starters in the unlimited sailing race. The coursé was four times around a triangle, one-half mile each side, making six miles in all. Howard Gray of Lowell, Mass., finished first, in 1:14:53 elapsed time, with Paul Butler, also of Lowell, second, seven minutes behind; D. 8. Goddard, Lowell, third; F. C. Moore, New York, fourth; H.

TORONTO, Ont., August 20.—The match race between John S. Johnson, the profes- sional champion, and Fred. W. Young, the Canadian who challenged him, took place before 3,000 people last night on the Ferry Company’s track. Johnson put in his own pace-makers in the first heat and won easily in 2.17 2-5. In the second heat, the pace-makers were supplied by Young, and after a rat- tling close finish, Johnson again won in 2.07 3-5. ‘4 half-mile professional open was won by Pat O'Connor in 1.10 3-5, with A. E. Weinig second and H.R. Steveson third. A mile handicap professional was won by Stevescn in 2.26 1-5, witn O'Connor second and Weinig third. . Disciplining Jockeys. The following decision of the stewards of the Queen's County Jockey Club was rendered at the close of yesterday’s rac- ing at the Aqueduct track: “We .beg to recommend that the license of J. Horton be revoked on account of two extremely suspiciously ridden races to- day, viz.: On Unity in the first race and on Roundelay in the second race.” A prompt investigation failed to show that J. J. McCafterty, owner of the horse Unity, was in any way respénsible for the bad rid- ing. A Poor Exhibition. The race between Gaudaur and Durnan at Toronto yesterday afternoon was the poorest kind of an exhibition. It was raced in such shallow water that the boats al- most scraped along the bottom, and it was run three times past the grand stand of the Ferry Company to let the occupants see it. Gaudaur could do @nything he pleased with Durnan and won by one length; sim- ply because he did not want to win by Great Lacrosse Playing. The greatest exhibition of lacrosse ever witnessed in Canada was given at Toronto yesterday by the Capital team of @ttawa and the Shamrocks of Montreal. The Cap- itals hold the championship of the world. The Shamrocks are the only team that can play anywhere near them. They played for two hours before 6,000 people. Each side got three games, and they were play- ing the seventh when time was called and the game declared a draw. Pugilists Arrested at New York.

The committee declared that the race was‘vold and it will be run again at Paris in September without fresh trials. Hitch in International Athletics. A leafling London athletic authority has announced that it is still doubtful whether the London Athletic Club will send a team to America to ccmpete with a team from the New York Athletic Club. All the meetings that have been held by the committee appointed by the London Athletic Club to select a team have been very stormy. To add to the troubles of the committee, several of the athletes se- lected to represent the club in America have now declined to go. Bredin and Ba- con have declined and Fitzherbert is doubt- ful. There are no really good men to fill the vacancies caused by the refusal of the men named to take part in the contests. Ziegler Got the Decision. Owen Ziegler of Philadelphia, who claims the light-weight championship of America, got a decision over Stanton Abbott, the acknowledged light-weight champion of England, last night, at the Eureka Athletic Club in Baltimore. In a preliminary Abe Ulman completely smothered Mike Boden, the Canuck, in the middle of the third round. The Ziegler-Abbott fight was the star event of the evening, and proved one of the most scientific contests ever seen in any ring. Ziegler won his victory on points alone, as neither man was injured, and it is Hkely that they could have continued the contest for a greater number of rounds. They both insisted that a decision Must be given at the end of the twenty rounds, and, as Ziegler had done the most of the leading, and had made his blows most éffective in the last two rounds of the contest, the decision was given to him. Coming to Fight McAuliffe. NEW YORK, August 20.—John Vallan- tine, an English pugilist, was one of the first cabin passengers on the Anchor line steamer Circassia, which arrived today.

He hopes to make a match with the American boxer for a fight, to take plate either here or on British soil. He claims to have plenty of backing, and is confident of his ability to vanquish his opponent. Sporting Noten.
