nat FALL & WINTER SPORTS. Get ready, boys! This is foot ball weather, and team work should begin. Be- fore you “line up” on the gridiron you'll require an entirely new out- fit. Select it here from the most complete stock in the city. Our Athletic Goods Department is full to overflowing with everything that the foot ball player, the bicyclist —the athlete—needs to fully enjoy himself in his favorite sport. Before we opened this department prices were entirely too high on this line of goods, and we saw a chance to make a big success of an Athletic Goods Department where reliaple goods could be bought at much lower than prevailing prices. We stepped right in, and our success was immediate. Get our bid on outfitting your team. There’s a big saving in store for you. The bicyclist who wants to be clad properly is invited to examine our line of “exclusive patterns” in Bi- cycle Suits. Our suitings were all personally selected, and are the handsomest in pattern—the best in quality—the greatest in value—your money could possibly buy anywhere. The wheelman who buys his Bi- cycle suit here is sure of absolute satisfaction. He will have just cause for pride in his appearance, and he can't help but feel elated in knowing his suit is different from every other man’s he meets on the road. Lower prices—too—but then you ought to know that.

P-T.HALL ,908 FSt <— by weet ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS Quiet Sunday Yesterday, With Well-At- tended Services. Political Meetings and Small Fire— Local Notes of General and Especial Interest. Sunday was a raw, disagreeable day, and in consequence the visiting crowds were not as large as usual. The services in the various churches were well attended, and resident rectors officiated. In the Episcopal churches the holy communion was celc- brated at the morning service. Mr. Wm. H. F. Beckham of the Virgjnia Theological Seminary preached to 4 large congregation st St. John’s Chapel, West End. Rev. F. T. Benson began a series of sermons to yourg men in the Methodist Protestant Church last night. Rev. L. J. McDougle of Trinity M.E. Church con- ducted the services at the railroad reading reoms. The students of the seminary will resume clarge of this work next Sunday afternoon, Bryan-Sewall-Rixey Meeting. The Bryan, Sewall and Rixey mass meet- ing in the Opera House Saturday night was largely attended, and Mr. Stilson Hutchins of Washington delivered an interesting speech, which was listened to with close attention and interspersed with applause by these present. The speech showed care- ful study and preparation, and he made some good points. Many sound money men were present, and listened attentively and respectfully to Mr. Hutchirs’ remarks. At the conclusion of Mr. Hutchins’ speech there were cries from all over the hall for Anderson! Anderson! Mr. Anderson, who Was a congressioral aspirant from this district, in a few remarks reported how the canvass was progressing in the district as he had seen it. Small Fire Yesterday Afternoon. Yesterday afternoon a row of frame buildings on Henry street, belonging to Mrs. Edward Hautzmon, were set on fire by a “live” wire of the telephone company, which was down at that point as a result of Tuesday night’s storm. Some small boys had been playing with the wire, and left it lying on the raltroad track, when a C. and O. passenger train passing car- ried the wire to King street, where it came into contact with the trolley wire, thus causing a connection, which resulted in the fire. The fire was extinguished by neighbors before much damage was done. General and Personal Notes. ‘There was a meeting of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union in the lecture room of the Southern Methodist Church this afternoon at 3 o'clock. ‘The funeral of Mrs. Thomas Hillery took place from her late residence on Pitt street yesterday afternoon. The interment was made in Bethel cemetery. Louis Cuvilier was operated on at the Alexandria Infirmary Saturday afternoon for a tumor in the side. Mr. John Cornel was “held up” at Four Mile Run Saturday night by unknown par- ties. They were scared off, however. King street is In a very much dilapidated condition from Washington to Pitt streets, owing to the construction—more “destruction”. the King street sewer. The democrats of Lincolnia, Fairfax county, organized a Bryan, Sewall and Rixey Club Saturday night. Mr. Benj. Blackford, who has been visit- ing Mr. J. T. Beckham, returned to his home in Staunton today. | ANTIPODEAN PLAYERS See SE Base Ballists Coming From Australia Next Spring. WILL MEET NATIONAL LEAGUE TEAMS Progress of-the Temple Cup Con- : test. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES PHILADELPHIA, Pa., October 5.—At a conference in this city between Manager Musgrove of the Australian cricket team, and Messrs. Spalding, Reach and Rogers, owners of the Philadelphia Base Ball Club, it was definitely arranged that the former would bring to this country next spring a base ball team, made up of native Aus- trallans, many of whom have become quite proficient in our national game. A schedule comprising between forty and fifty games was partly outlined, but will require further consideration before its final completion. ‘This much, however, was settled, games will be played between the Australians and the various teams of the National League, in addition to which the Antipodeans will visit many cities in the United States and Canada, their purpose being to play against the best representa- tive nines. Manager Musgrove will have charge of the base ball players, of whom he will bring about twenty. They will sail from Australia in Feoruary and hope to reach San Francisco early in April. Their tour will take up the spring and summer, the series being so arranged that they will leave for home late in October. FIELD DAY SPORTS. “Greeks” Defeat “Preps.” of George- town University.

Since the Temple cup series began Man- ager Hanlon has received a number of communications asking him to “give the bleachers a chance,” in other words, to re- duce the price of admission to the old figure so that very many who could not afford to pay the higher rate might see at least one ef the games. In order to give that class of loyal rooters an opportunity to see a game, and because the attendance has been so discouraging at the first two games, Manager Hanlon and the players decided to restore the old rates today. All the players expect today to see one of the old-time crowds that fill stands and bleachers. The champions will fight hard for today’s game and they declare that they will do everything in their power to make the series four straight. Hoffer will probably pitch today and Cor- bett will pitch one of the Cleveland games, because they have shown a mastery of the Cleveland batters. Cuppy will probably pitch for Cleveland. Manager Tebeau, who sprained his back severely on Friday and was confined to his bed Saturday, was able to be out yesterday and will be on the bench today. Both clubs will probably leave for Cleve- land tomorrow morning and will play there Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, or until one or the other wins four. If a seventh game is necessary it will be played in all probability in Pittsburg next week. Fair weather is predicted for today, and all the rooters hope for a bright, sun- shiny day. Baltimore Again Won. With almost ridiculous ease Baltimore Won the second game of the Temple cup se- ries from Cleveland Saturday. The exhibi- tion was almost a counterpart of that on Friday. The score, in fact, would have been exactly the same but for two errors by Jennings in the sixth inning, which pre- sented the Spiders with their second run. Soe Corbett pitched for the champions, and though his work was not as sensational as on several previous occasions, it was great twitling nevertheless. Wallace, for Cleve- land, pitched a very creditable game, but the support afforded him was discouraging. Tebeau, because of the injury received in Friday's game, was unabie-to play. ‘score was: The According to a.story emanating from Mil- waukee, John T. Brush, who owns the In-} dianapolis team, as well as the Cincinnati team of the big league, and John Geodnow of Minneapolis have a seheme on foot to. have the National League withdraw its protection ‘from the Western League, so that they might reorganize the league and put clubs in what cities they see fit and @istribute franchises wheresoever they, de- sire.

The sanction for extensiorf-was granted by the chairman of the racing board at the request of a tire company that has a large number of men on. the circuit, a team sufficient enough to make a good circuit meet. The tire company, however, has made other arrangements and decided that it will be impossible to take the, southern, loop, and hence the circujt will end in this city.

DETERMINED 70 WIN IT AGAIN Philadelphia Cricketers Defeat the Australians, BEATEN BY AN INNING — The Evening Star cup, the championship trophy of the high schools of Washington, was formally presented this morning to the Central High School, whose athletic team wen the trophy in the annual track and field sports of the bigh schools, which oc- curred last spring. The interesting ceremony took place in connection with the regular opening exer- cises in the exhibition hall of the Central High School this morning, ali the pupils, both boys and giris, together with the en- tire faculty jof the institution, being pres- ent. The young athletes, who by their skill and prowess won the cup, occupied seats on the platform. Dr. F. R. Lane, the director of the High School, by way of in- troduction, spoke of school athletics in gen- eral. The physical development of the pu- pils, he said, if not carried to excess, is a desirable adjunct in tne educational career of youth. He urged the boys, and also the girls, to unite in furthering the school spirit, par- ticularly as regards the athletic feature, and he expressed the hope that the repre- sentatives of the Central School would continue to win honor for their alma mater on the track and field. . Lane was followed by Mr. Harry English of the faculty. Mr. English is an enthusiastic athlete, and is a warztt friend of pupils athletically inclined. He also urged the boys to keep up the good work. The medals on the breasts of the members of the team, he said, showed their indi- vidual ability, and he went on to say that every one connected with the school ap- preciated the generosity of The Evening Star Newspaper Company in providing such a handsome trophy, which would cer- tainly tend to stimulate interest in ath- letics, and the possession of which would be covetously sought after by the four igh schools. Mr. English introduced Mr. Rudolph Kauffmann of The Evening Star, who, in a few appropriate words, presented the trophy to the school. Mr. Phillip Tindall, on behalf of the pupils, received the cup. In a bright speech Mr. Tindall expressed the determination of the school to continue to win The Even- ing Star cup and all other trophies and prizes that may be placed in competition in the future. WON BY PHILADELPHIA. The Australians Beaten by an Inning and Sixty Runs. FHAVERFORD, Pa., October 5.—Play in the international cricket match between the gentlemen of Philadelphia and the Australians was resumed today on the grounds of the Merion Cricket Club. When stumps were drawn on Saturday the visit- ors had put on 21 runs in their second in- nings for thé loss of two wickets, and as they made but 121 runs in their first at- tempt, they will have to do some remark- | able baiting to win the match in the face | of Philadelphia’s big lead. The home eleven put togethtr runs in their opening tn- nings, and seem to have the match prac- tically won. Today was a miserable one for cricket. A cold, easterly wind blew across the field, and heavy ulsters were way above par. The wicket was soft from yesterday’s down- pour of rain, and the crease was also mushy, Play began at 11:25 o'clock with Giffen and Gregory defending the wickets and P. H. Clark and King bowling. The Australian batters began putting cn runs at a rapid rate, but at 11:55, with the score 45, Gregory lifted one off K. W. Clark into the waiting hands of Wood and retired to the club house. Score, 45—3—7. Hill Joined Giffen. The fourth wicket went down for sixty runs, Hill being clean bowled by King. Score, 6044. Donnan was the next man. HAVERFORD, Pa., October 5. he third international cricket match between the Australian eleven and an eleven selected from the cricket clubs of Philadelphia was ended on the grounds of the Merion Cricket Club at 1:10 o'clock this afternoon. The Philadelphians won by an igning and @w runs. The Australians made 121 runs in their first inning and 103 in their second. Philadelphia made 282 in their single in- nig. The Australians leave for Chicago “tonight. ————— WANTED FOR MURDER. Grand Jury Indicts Joseph Dudley, Who is at Large. Among the indictments returned by the grand jury today was one charging Joseph, alias Toots, Dudley, a young colored mai with the murder of Nellie Armistead, col- ored. The crime, it is claimed, occurred near Howard University, the 1ith of Au- gust, 1895, when, according to the govern- ment witresses, Dudley, becoming involved in a quarrel with the woman, struck her on the right side-of the head with a stone. ‘The woman lingered until the 19th of last November, when she died from the injury, a badly fractured skull. Dudley left the city at once, it is said, and, although the pelice authorities have made every effort to locate him, he has successfully eluded them, and still remains at large, his pres- ent whereabouts being unknown to the au- thorities. It is understood, however, that his arrest is now but a question of a short time. ee Faith in the Business Outloek. Mr. T. T. Keane doesn’t believe business is any the worse for this being presidential year. He has spent more money in improv- ing his place of business and increased his capital invested in stock, evidencing his be- lief that times will brighten up despite po- litical agitation. Speaking to a Star re- porter of the outlook, Mr. Keane declared: “I believe business will take an upward turn, no matter which candidate is elected. Business men are fast realizing the folly of allowing politics to so seriously affect their business moves, and it will be only a short time before the business community throughout the country will realize it and will start right in to better the times, ir- respective of parties and politicians.” ae eee Marriage Licenses. Marriage licenses have been Issued to the following: White—James T. Helm and Flossie J. James, both of Elk Run, Va.; Charles L. Steidel and Annie L. Lein; Michael T. O'Leary and Bessie S.

The report of the president, aside from the usual business routine, will, it is un- derstood, contain some valuable observa- ticns on charity and the poor in general, showing that the association, sec- tarian in its name, is liberal in inciple ard humane in its action, and it will, it is believed, be of Interest to liberal Christians as well as to Jews. It is stated that no donations will be solicited during the meet- ing, but that they will not be refused if offered. Ladies are specially invited to at- tend. —_——— Mother# Congress. Great interest is being manifested in the naticnal congress of mothers, to be held in Wachington in February. Letters of in- quiry have been received, as well as many offers of co-operation and expressions of sympathy with the objeets of the work.
