ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS Opening of the Skating Races in Convention Hall. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES et The arnual meeting of the stockholders of the Washington Jockey Club will be held this afternoon, when the election of officers for the ensuing year will take place. There will be no opposition to the present officers, end they will undoubtedly be re-elected, as follows: President, 8. 8.

Howland, Henry May, F. B. McGutre, Sarruel Ross and Guy F. Whiting. It is expected that at the meeting today it will be decided to give stakes for 1898 and 1899. These stakes will be for two-year- olds, and the added money will be the largest ever given for stakes in the District, the amounts running from $3,000 to $5,000 for each stake. Entries to these stakes will probably be made to close early next month or the month following, perhaps on the day the stakes for the coming spring meeting close, the 2d of next month. The stakes for the spring meeting are as fellows: The Arlington; purse, $1,000; for two-year-olds; half a mile. The Mount Vernon; purse, $750; for filles and geldings two years old; half a mile. The Congres- sional; purse, $800; for two-year-olds; half a mile. The Federal; purse, $800; for three- year-olds; six and one-half furlongs. Wash- ington handicap; purse, $1,200; for three- year-olds and upward; one mile. Virginia hurdle race; purse, $000; for four-year-olds and upward; mile and a half over six hurdles. Easter steeplechase; purse, $750; for four-year-olds and upward; about two miles. Selling hurdle race; purse, $750; for four-year-olds and upward: one and three- quarter miles, over seven hurdles. Selling steeplechase: purse, $600; for four-year-olds and upward; about two and one-half miles. For the hurdle and steeplechase stakes there must be at least fifteen entries each. IZ not, any or all of them may be declared off at the option of the club. The spring meeting will probably be run during the mouth of April. It will be one of ten days, and will probably commence about the middie of the month. TWO FOULS IN ONE RACE. An Exciting Contest Between Nilsson d Donoghue. One of the most exciting skating races in this country was skated at Convention Hall last night between John Nilsson, the champion of Canada, and Joe Donoghue, once champion of the world and present champion of the United States, who raced for one mile for the Indoor championship. Both men nad expressed the greatest de- sire to meet each other, but have never been able to arrange a meeting. The race last night was therefore of unusual in- terest. Nilsson appeared on the ice first and was greeted rather coldly by the spec- tators, many of whom did not know who the little skater was. While waiting he gave a wonderful exhibition of fancy skat- ing on the racing skates, which are sixteen and one-half inches long. When Donoghue appeared he was given a hearty welcome. After some warming up the men toed the line at the south end of the hall and waited for the pistol. Nilsson caught the sound and was off in a twinkling, with Donoghue close behind, and it seemed as though the geeee SSSOOS 2906066 weeeeeres The Gre Every Glove in ck ; at reduction of Were formerly from 65c. to $2.75. length—from $1.50 to $4.00.

Whenever You F aj) All Out of Sorts Look Out for -Whait to Do. Nearly every physician, every scientist and every sufferer has been asking t! question: What is the Grip? Some have that it so dangerous microbe which ie the system, breeds several millions every second, and coon overruns the body with disease. Others have said that we are passing through # region of star dust, and that the minute particles are drawn into the body with every breath, Whatever it niay be, It is certain that it is something within the body which is fighting with the body to undermine the Ute. What would common sense dctate In such an emergency? Counteract the enemy, Drive it from the system. Do not trifle with {t, Act promptly and wisely at the first approach of the symptoms which you can readily detect. Take something which can counteract their deadly influence. Spirits of some kind are the best things to take, and whiskey is preferable to any other kind of spirits, But it should be borne very carefully in mind that only pure whiskey will hate the , and it should also be remembered that Duffy's pure malt whiskey stands at the head of all preparations and is the only medicinal whiskey upon the market. There are many unscrupulous dealers who will as- sure you that any whiskey will answer the pur- pose, but they are wrong and are trying to deceive you, two skaters had made a half a lap in about a second. Then the pace slowed down somewhat. As soon as Manager Towers had. called out the ninth lap Nilsson responded with a burst of epeed that took Donoghue by sur- prise. Then the latter unbent his arms from behind his batk and, with long swing- ing stroke and the heavy body pushes for which he is famous, caught up with the Canadian and at the next turn to the last passed him. In doing so, however, he was forced to touch the Canadian to keep his balance. This formed the basis of a foul claimed by Nilsson. Donoghue put forth his best effort, but Nilsson caught him at the last turn and both swept round together: Nilsson’s momentum, however, would not allow him to make a short turn and Donoghue was thrown against the side seat, while Nilsson touched the tape about a foot in the lead. Both claimed the race. Donoghue said he had been fouled at the last turn and Nilsson claimed that the former had fouled him at the upper turn. The judges, who were W. A. Bisnau of Canada, W. E. Crisp and R. P; Maupin of this city, decided that it was no race on account of both fouls. The timé for the race was 2.43. The second race was between Donoghue and Lawson for one-half mile, and the former won easily in 1.32. Lawson fell on. the fourth tap and was easily distanced, although he made a game effort to regain his loss. The Swede was given almost an ovation upon his appearance. The same judges officiated as in the first raee, while the timekeepers were Joseph Cassin, P. Ssengerbund and Carroll Institate Teams Each Won a Game. The Saengerburd and Carroll Institute bowling teams rolled a set of games last night on the former’s ‘alleys, and each club won a game. In the first game the Carroll Institute team rolled in great form, and made the highest | score by 47 pins made in the series thus far, when they made 873 pins. Rice of, the Institute made the highest individual epgre of the season— 221 pins—in this game. Stone of the same team rolled in this game without a break. The Saengerbund team made the fine score of 796 in this ganie! - In the second game they Saengerbund rolled finely and imp: their score of the first game, while the Institutes rolled very poorly. The Seengerbunds won this game by a margin cf 160 pins. Bruegger and Harrold rolled the highest scores for their side, each havifig 192. Rice and Bruegger made the best average for the two games—186 pins. Several difficult spares were made by his club. The Saen- gerbund made a team ave for the two games of 806, the best so far made. The score follows: Saemgerbund. j FIRST GAME. SECOND GAME. Be. St. Sp Se" St. Bp. Harrold. 192 a Harrol H 5 2 Lane. . 2 6 3 3 3 3 aS 10 13 2 Fro!

The most important meeting ,that. the League of American Wheelmen has ever held will convene at Albany, N. Y:, Feb- ruary. 10.. From present indications over $0 delegates will be present, constituting the largcst number ever gotten together by the organization at any of. its annual meetings up to the present. The matters which wil come before the convention cover a wide field, and there promises to be more out-and-out political work done than has béen indulged in in the past. The south some two years ago obtained concessions which barred colored wheel- men.-fram. membership in the organization, and, as this matter is to be brought up again and a fight started to, if possible, change this condition of affairs, the entire delegations from the southern stgtes are getting into fine to prevent any action being taken that will alter the present rules by which the door of the league is cidsed to colored riders. The east and the middie and western states are mostly in favor of the ‘proposi- tion to admit, colored riders to the ‘privi- leges of membership, and if there were no politics in the matter they would prob- ably amend the present rules. The south- ern divisions, however, will probably exact from the victorious party in the organiza- tion which may. capture the presidency and other offices the retaining of the pres- ent rule in relation to the ct wheel- men as the price of assistance, which, in the event of # close vo! mate valuable. Then, the west wan day racing sanctioned by the L. A. W., and the ren- resentatives from California and the other western states will make this matter the one upon which will hijge the throwing in of their lot with elthey of she two great factions into which theorgAnization will split over the candidates for the presidency. The only two candidates which seem at all to be considered in the matter of the presi- dency are Sterling Ell hs he Massachu- setts and Isaac B. Potte of; New York.

Proctor of this city, who captained the very successful team of Jeannette, Pa., last year, playing first base, has received an offer for next season from the Charles- ton team. Ernest Beam, who was with the Philaddel- phia Base Ball Club a portion of last sea- son, has been signed as a pitcher by the New Yorks. Some New York papers are advising President Freedman to swap Rusie for Mercer, @ deal which, it is said, Capt. Joyce would like to make. Frank Norcum, the pitcher of this city, has been signed by the New England League Fall River team. It is reported at Holy Cross College that John Pappalau, the star pitcher of the col- lege ball team, has agreed to sign with the Cleveland team. Arthur Irwin has completed his deal for the purchase of the Toronto franchise in the Eastern League. His outfield will be Casey, Freeman and Wright. The players who go along with the franchise are Lu- tenberg, Wagner, Dincen, Staley, Dean and Sanford. The games in Toronto are to be: played on the island grounds. Lavigne Whips Ziegler. George (Kid) Lavigne, the light-weight champion of the world, and Owen Ziegler fought six rounds last night in the arena of the Quaker City Athletic Club in Phila- deiphia. Lavigne had all the better of the bout, and it looked as though he could have put the Philadelphian to sleep in the first round. The Biggest Ren at Pool. Samuel Barnes broke the world’s record for a run at pool by pocketing 75 balls yesterday at Dallas, Texas. The former record was Clearwater’s run of 68. Barnes was playing Wm. Straton 100 balls to 40. May Invite Outsiders. There is a plan on foot to invite the ath- letes of City College, Baltimore, and the Episcopal High School of Alexandria to take part in the spring field and track sports of the District High Schools. The Baltimore Sun says: “Should the affair prove a success, it may lead to the introduction of other colleges, and, finally, a definite collegiate athletic union for Maryland and the District of Columbia. All the prominent athletes in the city admit that it would have a most invigorating influence on amateur sport all over the state. There would be no trouble in bringing the Washington boys here in 1898, and perhaps teams from some of the other colleges. ‘The consolation matches in the tourney of the Washington Golf Club were inter- rupted yesterday by the cold weather, the links near Rosslyn being almost deserted on account of the cold wind that swept over the stretch. The semi-finals will be played today in the consoletion between Messrs. Locket and Mitchell and Wylie and Whiting, the finals being played Thursday, the weather permitting. . The ladies’ match will probably be played tomorrow, and the contestants will un- doubtedly draw the largest gathering of any of the matches. The entries include Muss Lockett, Miss McMillan, Miss Mc- Keever, Miss Wetmore, Miss Boardman, Miss Brice, Miss Worthington, Miss Wood- ward, Miss Batchelor, Miss Harlan, Miss Hearst and Mrs. Hobart Chatfield Taylor of Chicago. Basket Ball. The basket ball teams of the Washing- ton Athletic Club and the Corcoran Cadets will play a postponed game of the league this evening at the gymnasium of the former club. —_—>—— THEY SNUBBED ALTGELD.

How the Little Vender of Newspapers May Be Benefited. The Sunday newsboy order is still a mat- ter of discussion. The question has excited an interest in the newsboy himself, and it may be he will derive some benefit from the debate going on over the propriety of permitting him to call his papers for sale Sunday mornings. Virginia King Frye, writing to The Star in regard not only to the newsboy, but to hucksters and others who make hideous noises in the morning, sa) “In a beautiful residence city like Wash- ington it must be only a question of time when all these nuisances will be suppressed, and to the real betterment perhaps of the energetic offenders, paradooxical as it may seem. Therefore, while it certainly seems urfair to begin the crusade by restricting the worthy efforts of the little newsboys, “It must come some time, boys, and why not take advantage of this tide of sym- pathy to float your business to a safer grounding? Let the newsboys have a meet- ing and divide the city into districts, each working a certain street or portion. Then let each arrange with the householders in his district to leave their Sunday papers promptly and unfailingly by a certain hour. if they object to having the door bells rung, the papers could be left in the vestibules and the money collected later. If every family would thus patronize a regular newsboy, the income of these little mer- chants would be larger and surer without the objectionable noise. “Then let the newsboy wear something distluctive, something easily seen. It need not be expensive. A red hat or cap band with ‘Papers’ in large white letters would arswer the purpose of attracting attention on the streets and around the. hotels and churches. “Nobody really believes the Commissioners are going to acknowledge themselves in the wrong by rescinding their order, so let us tee the newsboys to succeed in spite of Replying to a communication tn The Star last evening signed ** ” “Bread Winner” writes to The Star as follows: “The writer Is correct in saying there are “thousands of weary and heavy-laden ones’ to whom Sunday is gladly welcomed as a day of rest, but many of the tired and weary ones are spared the trial of ‘drag- ging their weary bodies upstairs to their rooms’ after entering their homes, as they are compelled to live in one room. “As far as being ‘rudely awakened in the first gray st of the morning by Yelling of the ‘Sunday newaboys,” it is light by 6:30 a.m. at this season of .
