Prof. Willis Moore of the weather bureau was once connected with a newspaper in the state of New York. It was while he decorations, S. C.| held this position that he had an amusing experience, in which the late cartoonist, Thomas Nast, figured. The paper With which Mr. Moore was connected had a spite against a certain fire company in the town which desired to hold an entertainment to raise funds for the purchase of a new hose carriage or some- thing of the sort. It was learned that the company intended to secure the services of Mr. Nast for the entertainment, which was to be held in the town hall. It was thought that by advertising the famous cartoonist and charging a moderate price of admission the hall would be packed and a large sum secured ior the desired pur- pose. In order to forestall the company a committee was formed,including Mr. Moore and several others. They constituted them- selves a body known as the Phi Delta Phi Society. What it was they did not know themselves; they simply wished to make a bluff about the whole business. A lester was writtensto Mr. Nast saying that it was desired to fit up a reading room for the benefit of the pseudo Phi Delta Phi Society, asking what he would charge to appear for its benefit. It was though that the sum he named would be entirely too large, and it might keep the hose com- pany from securing him in some manner. Much to the surprise of the committee of the society Mr. Nast replied, stating a re- rumor that his line is in the hands of a| M@rkably small sum for which he would receiver, and ‘that there is not the slightest probability that it will be.

As may be imagined, the repre- sentatives of the hose company were great- ly exercised over the matter. They could not understand what the Phi Delta Phi Society consisted of, as it had sprung so suddenly into existence. Their efforts to find out did not avail them very much. it was known that Mr. Nast would desire to see the reading room which the society engaging him had stated it wished to fit up. After considerable perplexity, @ room from cne of the local societies of the town, The night of the lecture the hall was crowded beyond expectation, and a com- mittee from the alleged Phi ‘Delta Phi So- clety had a white elephant of large di- mensions on their hands. Visions of ob- taining money under false pretenses stared them in the face. When ‘the box receipts were divided, after all their expenses were deducted, it was found that there was a jarge sum of money, so large, in fact, that their consciences would not approve of a vision among the committee. The matter was to the fire company, after which the moters of the lecture, the formers of the Phi Delta Phi Society, breathed eaaier. ——.__. Applies for Admission.

They will take a good rest tonight and induigeih light practice for their game in the afternoon with Wasning- ton and Lee University. After their game Saturday with Virginia Miltary Institute they will remain in Lexington over night and start for home "Sunday morning. The members of fie team took their last preliminary practice on the college grounds yesterday afternoon, After working stead- ily for over an hour under the careful eye ef Captain Lewis and the discernment of Manager Nichol,. the following selection of members for the team was announced: Name and ie and Position. Weight. 12 Cummings, r. g. Kelly, 1. e... Coleman,:i. $3} Wade L. Jolly, was also one of the lucky men and will be played at quarter back and on an end at times in the games. At the last moment Weaver. who was going to play left half-back, and Meigs, who was slated for an end position, reported their inability to take the trip, owing to the stress of business, and Capt. Lewis was forced to:make other selections. The last practice of the men showed a vast improvement over their slow work cf last week and augurs well for their success, Harlan is'a strong, steady man at center and holds is ground well. Kelly and Beard, the two ends, are fast on their feet and tackle finely. The tackles, Loucks and Coleman, and the guards, Cummings and Shuster, are ll heavy, aggressive men who promise to stop any formation that tries to get through them. They are ex- pected to show much skill in breaking up interference and defensive work. Rye and Joily at-quarter are quick and accurate in handling ‘the ball’ and no breaks are ex- pected from them. Tindall and Falls, the half-backs, run hard and low and follow their interference well. As full-back, Lewis is an exceptionally ‘good man, He is ac- curate and quick in punting arid drop-kick- ing and is a relable ground gainer. 1: is difticut to judge from their Iftn- ited and hanipered practice on the small ccllege campus what kind of a showing the team will make in a game. They have bad no experience against an cpposing,teara ang therefore have had no chance to show their skill or perfect their shortcomings in opening up holes in the line and-using their interference to the best advantage, both in center and “round- the-end” plays. They are also lacking in the art of tacklirg, following the ball on kicks down the fielf, and getting up under kick-offs, eH : Notwithstanding Jthts Jack of sufficient training, all the men are excellent sclec- tions and have no-iittle individual experi- ence, which has ugmented to a bigh degree under the effitiépt coact ing of Gran- ville Lewis. the captain. If the boys play their best their frieuds here may look for two victories, which feut the team expects to accomplish. The revised schedule of games, completed up to this’ morning, was given out by Man- ager Nichol, beford departing, as follows .. Friday, October 8, Washington and.

It is probable that the game with the University of North Carolina will be can- celed, as the trip is considered to be too long and may interfere with the students’ studies. The Thanksgiving day game will not close Columbian’s season, ‘as Manager Nichol will soon begin to schedule games up to Christmas, when it is his intention tO play the closing game on that day with the Columbian Athletic Club. Foot Ball at Georgetown Eniversity. The Georgetown University boys opened thelr foot bali season Sunday morning by an exciting game between the Greek So- ciety and a picked team.

Tke Canton Potomac band tendered Cap- tain Tom Brown of the Washington club @ serenade last night in recognition of the latter’s good services during the past sea- sen in hoisting the Senators into a tie for sixth place. The members of the band gathered at their headquarters at an early hour and at 8 o'clock, under the leadership of Richard A McLean and J. T. Robey, led a large number of local base ball en- }thusiasts towards the Brown residence on 6th street. The band played “Auld Lang Syne,” “Hail to the Chief,” and several of the latest popular airs, at the conclusion of which Captain Brown was called upon for a speech. He responded in a happy and confident vein, thanking his hearers for their kind wishes and regards and pre- dicting a still better place for the Senators at the end of next seasen than the one occupied at the end of the season just closed. The crowd then gave the popular captain three cheers and a tiger. RESERVED FOR ’98. National League Players Kept on the List.

Western League, magnat® will meet in today. Their action in ali prob- ability will alter the present rules. Under the présent rules the major league can draft from the Western and Eastern leagues by merely paying the draft price of $300, The western magnates propose now to have the law amended so that the big league carrot-draft during the first season the player is with the minor league club. . The western magnates are in trouble over their circuit for next season. Grand Rapids has been a failure as a ball tov-n, and the question is in what town to place the franchise. ‘The -table herewith appended gives the leading batsmen of the National League since its organization: Year.

The Bostons are stronger-in pitchers tan we are. If we had their pitch!ng strergth I think we could beat them. Am I going to play in Baltimore next year? I don’t know. Hanlon says there's nothing in the report that I'm going to Brooklyn, but 1 would prefer going there to’staying in Baltimore. I might not be on as good a team, but a man can’t do more than work his hardest wherever he is.” Doyie was not worried abcut the report that Umpire Lynch in- tended to prefer charges against him at the next league meeting for offensive language. “I don’t see where Lynch comes in to pre- fer charges against me,” he said. “He put me out of a game in Boston without Provo- cation. After he put me out I cailed him a name—no worse than hé has been called be- fore—and then he punched me. Naturally I punched back. There's some excuse tor @ ball player losing his temper, but for an umpire, none. Of all persons on a ball field an umpire is supposed to keep his head, and make some ailowance ‘or a bal player, who has his mind set on winning.” The long-standing dissension in the Cleveland ball team has nearly reached the point of open rebeition. Several of the older players complain of unfair treatment at the hands of Manager Tebeau. These men held a meeting recent- ly, and oniy at the earnest solicitation of Acting Captain Childs would they corsent to go to Pittsburg. Ed McKean did not play in Pitts! urday. The enmity between “Mac” is. seemingly irreparable. It started when the fight in the dressing room of the players occurred some time ago, when certain players ovjested to Te- beau retaining Sockalexis on the field when he was not abie to play. Tebeau has hi Tt in for McKean, sup- posing that “‘Mac” gave out the informa- ae which, however, was much of a mis- take. Then McKean discovered that Tebeau had tried to trade him for De Montreville of Washingion without even consulting him, and that made him all the angrier. The obtaining of a batch of young play- ers by President Robison accentuazed the ill feeling, as the old mea looked vcpon the move as a threat for them to watch out for their positions. It is difficult to tell what the outcome of the trouble will be. The team did not try to win at Pittsburg—one dispateh recived Saturday night merely stating: “Cleveland an not win because the ia2n did not try to win.” rg Sat- and Pat Fy The greatest game of base ball ever play- ed in the west between amateur ciubs took plece at Minneapolis. Minn., on September 15. In a twenty-three inning game the Mcnte Carlos defeated the Quicksteps b score of 2 to 1. Neither team scored until the twenty-first irning. Ryeberg pitched fer the Monte Carlos, Rolander for the Quicksteps.| The game was played for a purse of $200 and championship of Minne- sota.

Schade was not in form yesterday .| 2t Baltimore and in consequence the C. A. C. team of. this city. failed to win the George Pierce trophy in the one-mile Bicycle team race? ‘There were entered three teams of three men each, and the race was won by the Clifton Wheelmen of Baltimore, the’ time' being 2:29. The Clifton team was composed of Rob- ert L. French, William G. Le Compte and W. J. Wilkinson. . A. <. Moran, E. L. Wilson and Fred. Schade of Washington represented the Columbia Tthletic Club, cf this city, and finished second. The’ third team.-that of the Electric 2:15 Club of Baltimore, was composed of T. Cecil Downes, A. Lisle White and Richard T.. Norris. The trophy is to become the property of theclub winning it the most times during 1897. The Columbia Athletic Club had won it once and was hot after it again, but Schade finished last. If Séhade had fin- ‘ished: of any man in the race the Ciiftons would not have gained possession of the cup. The Columbias are anxious to have another try at the trophy, and are ‘trying to induce the Cliftons race them in Washington Saturday. In the finals-of-the one-mile amateur handicap, which were entered by the eight men who had finished first in each of the -two.heats, three Washington men took the coveted positions. They were L. B. Danne- miller, first; E. L. Wilson, second; Fred. Schade, third. Time, 2:10 4-5. WORLD’s PACING RECORD BROKEN. Chehalhis Goes Two Miles at Salem, ‘* +* Ore, im 4.19 1-4, e) 4 PRICES!
